pink toes

Good Morning!

I saw these Tory Burch "Coralee" flats on a woman in my building the other night, and haven't stopped dreaming about them since. I live in my TB Reva flats, and I'm dangerously close to pulling the trigger on these beauties.

What do you guys think?

Spring Shoes

Happy Friday!

Hope you all had a wonderful week!

I would love any version of these neutral sandals for Spring, and I can't wait to start shopping and searching for the perfect pair.

Made for Walking

Just as I do each season, I've managed to find an item that I need, but cannot find in my size/color. Last year it was this. This year, it's an over the knee slim fit cognac/tan/brown leather boot. My favorite choices are listed below, and my favorite (the Cyrill boot) is sold out. I'm thinking of going with the Intyre boot instead, any feedback?

T-Straps

One of my fall obsessions includes T-strap heels. I picture them worn with thick tights or bare legs, short skirts or cuffed trousers. I love how they elongate the leg and add a sexy shape to the ankle and foot. Here are some of the styles that are on my mind.







1. Paris Hilton "brandy" patent leather T-strap, $65 {my favorite}
2. Chi Mihara baiko metallic leather cap toe, $375
3. Giuseppe Zanotti Platform T-strap pump, $650
4. YSL Tribute calf hair sandals, $1,195
5. Modcloth Velvet-ed out T-strap Heel, $40

Footwear from F21

Would you believe me if I told you these are all under $30!

Jelly

I haven't worn jellies since I was in the 6th grade. They were my favorite shoes, simply because they were bright colors and could be worn in the water or to school.
I have not thought much about jellies since then, until I saw this photo of Carrie Underwood wearing these perfectly sparkled clear plastic jellies by Melissa Shoes.
What I love most about the clear sparkle is that your foot and nail polish show through the open plastic weave.
They are impossible to find in clear, but believe me, I do not give up that easily.

Clog

How cute are these clog inspired sandals?












{Aldo's Sanford Sandal $80}

They look comfortable too. I love the cognac leather.

Touch of lace

With shoes like these, I don't know what more I would need.
I adore the mix of zippers and antique rose lace. They are perfect.

Nude Streak

I finally have my beloved "Stalcup Pump" from Aldo. They are the perfect union of pump and bootie. I'd love a pair in black for the fall, but first I'll see how comfortable the nude ones are!

Sole of Wood

My new Aldo wooden platforms arrived last week and made their debut for SATC 2 opening night. These shoes are not only cute but they are truly comfortable, with a wooden platform and adjustable ankle straps. I'm debating getting them in the tan suede as well because I know these will be a summer staple.

The New Sneaker

I'm not a fan of wearing sneakers, but I think I can handle these.


Sergio Rossi "satin pump sneaker"


Ash "strappy wedge sneaker"


Tory Burch "lace up wedge bootie"

Can you tell the difference?

I've been a long time fan of Alexander Wang's Natasha pump. For a while, they were no where to be found. I see that Barney's has restocked their supply, but I also noticed that Aldo has done a dangerously close variation of the coveted shoe.
While in my opinion, the Natasha pump has more style and charm than Aldo's version, I'm leaning towards the $80 copy to satisfy my craving.

Alexander Wang "Natasha Pump" $540



Aldo "Stalcup Pump" $80

Wedge It

My Cynthia Vincent for Target Wedges have arrived just in time for the warm weather. They are just what I expected with their gorgeous styling, warm cognac hue and easy to walk in wedge.

Love These

Steve Madden Tuscaan Wedges

In the nude

I think I need these Steve Madden 'Loyyall' Suede platforms.

I know, I'm starting a small collection of Nude shoes but seriously, I'm obsessed.

C'est Moi

Seriously, I have never been so into shoes as I am this season.

I think I have Jeffrey Campbell to thank for that.

I seem to fall deeper and deeper in love with each new style I spot.
For instance, these 'C'est Moi' studded mary janes that I cant stop thinking about. I had to order a pair in grey suede ASAP.

The coolest part of this shoe is that it was actually designed by Emily Lupton, the winner of the Lookbook.nu X Jeffrey Campbell "Design your own shoe" contest.

Love them!

NinetyNine

Since I am a wedge-fanatic, I just had to post the Jeffrey Campbell '99' wedge. I plan on heading down to my local Shoegasm this afternoon to see if they are as irresistible in person as they look here.

Air Astrid

My husband and I are escaping to San Francisco for a few days this spring. I've already been warned about the excessive uphill walking and been advised to get some new tennis shoes. I don't think so.

I remembered reading about the Cole Haan Nike Air Technology featured in most of their shoes last year. Lucky for us ladies, they incorporate the Nike Air cushion into most of their styles, including the ever cute prima ballerina flat "Air Astrid".

I got myself the baby pink leather and they look extra cute with a tan.

Hit the Target

I stumbled upon an ad for Target featuring shoes by Cynthia Vincent yesterday. I was immediately thrilled at the prospect. I was even more thrilled when I saw the styles. An array of chunky wedges and funky gladiator flats ALL for under $30. I managed to order a pair of the cognac wedges before they all sold out, but I wish I could have scored a pair in black also. They sold out super quick, but a rep from Target suggested the website will be updated with new stock Sunday and Monday of next week.
