Double-Take: Common Projects Achilles

The sneaker market is flooded with high-tops, embellished uppers, and bright colors. Although I do have a couple pairs of statement-making kicks, there’s nothing better than a no-frills white or black sneaker. Every closet needs at least one pair, and the brand that immediately comes to my mind, for minimalists and…

Shoe Review: Ecco Fara

I have a lot heels in my closet, but my sneaker collection is just has expansive. As much as I love a good boost of height, sneakers are more practical for someone who commutes to work by bus or metro. When there’s a lot of walking involved, it’s important to…

Double-Take: Valentino Rockstud Flats

And we’re back with the studs! If you prefer flats over heels, these are definitely a style to consider. In my opinion, the Rockstud flats are probably the best option out of all the studded Valentino styles. They are easily more versatile than the other designs, and definitely amp up…

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 Review: Sam Edelman Susie

Now that it’s warm out, it’s time to break out the strappy shoes. These cute sandals will take you everywhere this summer, from company meeting to drinks with the girls. The versatile neutral color will go with everything from jeans to pencil skirts. But if you want a pop of…

Shoe Review: Evening Shoes

Whether you’re goal is to be prom queen or most beautiful bride, the Galvin heels will certainly dazzle your admirers. This stunning stiletto sandal knows how to make an impression with sparkling mirrored triangular stones. A shimmery satin heel and micro platform complement the lavish design. I’m sorely tempted to…

Shoe Review: Vince Camuto Sandals

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…

Double-Take: Christian Louboutin Amazoulo

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…

Shoe Spotlight: Lady of the Evening

Like the iconic Manolo Blahnik Chaos or Stuart Weitzman Nudist sandals, Jimmy Choo’s Lang is a timeless classic that keeps reappearing. These glamorous shoes are a favorite on the red carpet! Despite the 4 inch heel, they’re quite comfortable because the caged upper is much more secure than the barely-there structure of the…

Shoe Spotlight: Barbie Heels

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…

Double-Take: Manolo Blahnik Estro

A couple weeks ago, I was browsing through the remaining end-of-season sale items at Saks and was stopped in my tracks by the stunning bright blue color of the Manolo Blahnik Estro. When I asked to try them on in my size, the sales associate said these dainty sandals were…

Shoe Review: Schutz Embellished Flats

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…

Double-Take: Jimmy Choo Annie

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,…

Shoe Review: Schutz Caged Heels

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…

Double-Take: Valentino Soul Rockstud

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…

Shoe Spotlight: Champagne is the New Black

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…

Double-Take: Jimmy Choo Lucy

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…

Double-Take: Chanel Glitter Boots

We’re revisiting glitter boots again—clearly I can’t get enough as this is the second post within a week that features sparkly footwear. This time, we’re taking a look at a more iconic style. When the Chanel cap toe pump was introduced in 1957, it became an instant classic. Crafted in…
