I always love a good statement shoe. These can come in many forms: embellished heels, crazy construction, and exotic materials are just a few ways shoe styles can be elevated. But when it comes down to simple sandals, there’s only so much you can do. Unless you’re going for a style with complicated laces and […]

Talk about making a statement! It’s not surprising that the magnificent Amazoulo sandal comes from Louboutin—his collections are as colorful and imaginative as they are sexy. Fun fact about these? They’re quite comfortable! The open toe construction and adjustable lacing helps create a better fit, something you’re not going to get with the So Kate […]

When I was a little girl, I collected hundreds of little plastic shoes for my Barbies. They had a dream closet filled with various styles in every color of the rainbow. It was magical, and I used to wish I had a fairy dust that could turn those itty bitty shoes into life-size shoes for me […]

Let’s face it ladies: sometimes, the idea of spending an entire evening walking in heels can be a mood-killer. Plans aren’t always predictable; a low-key evening at a small restaurant might turn into a night of dancing at the club around the corner. Aches, hobbling, twisted ankles—risks we are all willing to take when facing a […]

Every now and then, designers will release a shoe that becomes timeless—a style that is created and recreated in several colors and materials over the years, with no sign of being discontinued. The Annie 85mm from Jimmy Choo falls into this category. This heeled sandal is stunning in it’s simplicity, lady-like yet modern year after […]

The weather in DC has been a little warmer these past few days, so obviously I’m beginning to think of the airy feeling sandals create after wearing boots all winter. There are new spring trends coming our way (more on that later), but now is actually a great time to look at what’s being phased […]

It’s interesting to see how the Valentino rockstud embellishment continues to live on throughout the seasons. The metallic pyramid embellishment was introduced several years ago, and it’s been applied in many different ways over time. I think I post a Valentino shoe with rockstuds at least one a month—I hope you’re not tired of seeing […]

Whenever I get new boots for fall or winter, they always tend to look the same: black, low-to-mid heel, and ankle height. Very practical and timeless. So, despite having a couple different pairs in my closet, there really isn’t that much variation. This year, I thought it might be time for a slight departure. What […]

Do you ever scan the shoe racks at TJ Maxx or Nordstrom Rack, spot a pair you think is designer, and then are pleasantly surprised when it’s not but looks just as good? Well that recently happened to me. I do a couple rounds whenever I shop at discount stores because it’s easy to miss […]
