Renée Zellweger treats stranger to a pair of Manolo Blahnik heels

RENEE ZELLWEGER MUST have more cash than she knows what to do with.

The kind-hearted star treated a total stranger to a pair of Manolo Blahnik shoes after she saw the woman lusting over them.

Renee bumped into Bobbi Brown make-up artist Wendy Faracino in the shoe department of the Southampton branch of Saks Fifth Avenue while they were both admiring the designer shoes, made ultra-cool by Sarah Jessica Parker's Sex and the City character, Carrie Bradshaw.

One source told the New York Post: 'Wendy was on her lunch break and was standing gazing longingly at the pair of Manolos when Renée strolled up to her and the pair began chatting about the shoes.

'A few minutes after she went back to work, the shoe department manager brought Wendy a gift-wrapped box and told her, 'These are compliments of Renée Zellweger. She wanted you to have them.'

'It was the Manolo's.'
