Shoe Spotlight: Ankle Straps and Red Soles

These Suzanna flats may look a bit familiar to you…I wrote about them last year in a double-take post. They are an instant classic, flattering and comfortable. Turns out Louboutin created a winner here because they’re constantly in demand. The heeled version continues to be produced over the seasons in…

Shoe Spotlight: Fall Fringe

Some time ago, I mentioned these shoes briefly in a double-take post, and just recently realized that I have never featured this gorgeous pair! These Yves Saint Laurent Opyum pumps were probably my most fortunate footwear find. I was in the St. David’s TJ Maxx store during the tail end…

Shoe Spotlight: Minimalist

These incredibly simple sandals have become my absolute favorite! I ordered these from Express on a whim because they were having a 40% off sale, and I’m so glad that I did! The minimalist silhouette is extremely versatile, and so comfortable that I find myself wanting to wear them almost…

Double-Take: Alexander Wang Sandals

It’s hard to forget Alexander Wang’s Spring 2013 collection; the deconstructed designs with sharp edges and graphic panels are truly breathtaking. And I’m sure everyone is familiar with the modernized white gladiator sandals that made their debut during that season.…

Shoe Spotlight: Buttoned Up

Sorry about the low quality image (my hand was shaking at the awkward ankle). The tone does kind of suit the style of the boots though, doesn’t it? A bit of vintage touch. Anyway, I spotted these gorgeous Stuart Weitzman Spat boots at Nordstrom Rack for the amazing clearance price…

Shoe Spotlight: Silver Sprinkles

I first ventured into the world of smoking slippers back in December with an embellished pair from DSW. And although my style is more feminine with a bit of edge, I’ve found the menswear-inspired flats to be one of my favorites. They’re very laid back, extremely comfortable, and are a…

Shoe Spotlight: Thigh High

Coat: Express | Bag: Kate Spade (similar) | Boots: Brian Atwood (in brown) Remember that fantastic Brian Atwood sale I wrote about? Well here’s the amazing deal I managed to snag! I can’t tell you how long I’ve been looking for the perfect thigh high boots. I love how elegant…

Brian Atwood Bargains

I love clearance and final reductions, this means you can find fantastic shoes for the lowest of the low prices. But you’ve got to make decisions quickly because stuff sells in a snap! This morning I got a mouth-watering email: Brian Atwood Reductions. It pointed to some seriously reduced lust-worthy…

Shoe Spotlight: Red Soles at TJ Maxx

After TJ Maxx launched The Runway in select stores a few years ago, my chances at finding high-end shoes for less greatly increased. My collection of decadent footwear grew significantly since then, but there was always a nagging thought at the back of my mind: what about Manolos, Jimmy Choos,…

Double-Take: Manolo Blahnik Fersen

I’ve mentioned before that I find shoes that play with illusion quite interesting. The best styles are ones that make it seem as if the shoe is barely held onto the foot. Others are more subtle with transparent sections, such as this elegant sandal from Manolo Blahnik.…

Shoe Spotlight: Sexy Sparkles

Wow, just wow. I really have no other words to describe these stunning sandals by Giuseppe Zanotti. I managed to snag them online when DSW significantly lowered the prices on all their Luxe810 shoes. With my discount, they were an absolute steal! Unfortunately, they ran rather large and my feet…

Shoe Spotlight: Golden Girl

I have a slight obsession with golden shoes. I’m not sure why, but I find pumps, sandals, and even sneakers with that extra sparkle very enticing. If worn tastefully, I think gold shoes are a classic that can be styled with almost any outfit, not just evening and formal wear.…
