Shoe queen Tamara Mellon's thirst for footwear knows no bounds. Case in point: On Sunday, the designer left her seat at the Bowery Meat Company between her appetizer and entree rounds to run to next door Blue & Cream. Though the store had just closed, she reportedly asked staff to re-open it, because she really wanted to try on $250 Nike Flyknits. She did, however, purchase the pair, and we assume that the two lived happily ever after. [Page Six]
