Hey there Shoe Fans!  I love it when someone reintroduces you to a really awesome jam from back in the day that you completely forgot about.  Recently, I have been enjoying this classic Paula Abdul track thanks to a friend of mine that put it on my radar again.

Not only does this bring back all kinds of late 80′s nostalgia but it also reminds me of one of this season’s Hottest Trends, Snakeskin!  Here are some of my favorite reptile inspired footwear styles.

 

Off White Dereon Sasho Platform Pumps

 

Black Suede Block Heel Platform Justice Booties from ZiGi Girl

 

Pewter Suede Rounded Toe Code Snake Pumps from Seychelles

Hi Shoe Fans!  While Cognac can be an old man’s after dinner drink, it is also one of the hottest shoe colors of this season.   This rich brown hue is not only beautiful but also versatile as it can compliment a wide range of color schemes.  Here are a few of my favorite Cognac styles.

Hi there Shoe Fans!  The time has come for my last post about animal print shoes.  I have saved the best for last (in my opinion) with the super fun Pink Leopard pattern.  While this print isn’t actually found in nature, it is without a doubt the boldest and most daring.

If you need a Pink Leopard shoe with a cute Peep Toe, I highly recommend these

Shoes We Love: In the Nude

I am in love with nude shoes. Literally obsessed. I didn’t mean for it turn out that way, but I am drawn to nude shoes. After all, you can wear them with ANYTHING! Ellen posted some fabulous L.A.M.B heels with gold embellishments that are on my wish list. I have told myself time and time again that I am not allowed to purchase anymore nude shoes. I want them!!

Suleika has these beauties. She pairs them with jeans and skirts or dresses. The Chief is a versatile style that can be worn with just about anything. Guess manufactured the Chief in several different patterns and colors. We cannot wait to get it in more colors.

 

The girls and I were just introduced to these amazing styles by Bebe; Stewart and Sofia.

Stewart is a stellar open toed booties complete with aged silver rings for that extra sparkle and pizazz. The platform makes it a little chunky (fierce) while the color keeps it sweet. I love the cut-outs over the entire shoe. It’s a fun and flirty approach to a booties, making it wearable in the warmer months. This booties is available in black as well.

      

 

Sofia is a dainty reflection of the Stewart. Still keeping with the theme, Bebe has created a sling-back with an edge. The miniature braid and aged silver rings give it just enough detail. These heels can be worn to a special event or a night out on the town. The Sofia is also available in black.

 

Jayda in bone is a new upload from Paris Hilton. The color rocks, of course. The style is interesting. I would call it a modified wedge. It’s somewhat of a wedge and heel combined.  Not a bad combination at all. I like the gold buckles that add some shine. This shoe is a great seasonal style. Jayda is available in black, gold and orange. Enjoy!

 

Look at these! Barry in bone by Paris Hilton made its way to us just yesterday. It is not on the website yet, but keep your eyes peeled. This style is also available in black.

Shoes We Love: Summer Wedding Style: Shoes for Every Location

Posted by Ellen on Tuesday Jun 29, 2010
See more posts by Ellen

Hey there shoe fans!  Since we had such great feedback on our Wedding posts from earlier this month, I’ve decided to do one more.  This time it is all about location.  You know what they say;  its all about Location, Location, Location when planning your wedding and the venue is one of the first decisions that needs to be made before you can plan anything else.  It doesn’t matter where the wedding is taking place;  the proper footwear is crucial to looking and feeling fabulous.

Our first location is the most traditional:  a Church

If you are literally “Going To The Chapel,” then you can’t go wrong in these:

Our next location is perfect for our floral fanatics.  Garden Weddings can be a harmonious mix of casual and elegant.

If you are headed to a botanical theme Wedding, you will look too cute in these:

A trendy new locale for Weddings these days is a Museum.  I personally love this neo-classical idea.

If you are stepping out to some Museum nuptials, you should take a look at these:

Our next destination is an awesome place for both the ceremony and honeymoon.  I’m talking about Las Vegas, of course.

If you are involved with a Wedding in Sin City where the “King” is officiating, let your personality shine in these:

Gold Snakeskin Peep Toe D’Orsay Brice Pumps with a Faux Wedge from Bebe

Without a doubt one of the most beautiful locations that I can think of for any Wedding is most definitely on the Beach.

Don’t get shipwrecked with lame shoes;  try something that will be easy to navigate in the sand like these:

Metallic Silver Joker Thong Sandals with Embellishments from Guess

Because of the convenience factor, a Country Club or a Resort Hotel is also a great venue for your Big Day.  Having plenty of rooms and catering on site makes for a less-stressed Wedding day.

If effortless ease is your style, you must slip your feet into these:

Growing up out in the middle of nowhere, I guess I kinda overlooked how neat it would be to get hitched down on the farm.  This seems to be the up-and-coming hip new locale to tie the knot.

If you are kepping it rustic for your “I Dos,” you’ll be right at home in a pair of these:

Shoes We Love: Summer Wedding Style: Honeymoon Shoes

After the ceremony is over, the cake has been cut, and all the heartfelt toasts have been said it is time to jet off to your honeymoon.  Take off in a car that is (hopefully) tastefully decorated for the airport where you will take off in a plane to some exotic location.  While planning for “the Big Day” takes most of the focus, a well planned honeymoon wardrobe should not be overlooked.  It doesn’t matter if you are headed to the mountains or the coast, a cruise ship or a ski lodge, a bed & breakfast or a theme park;  we have the perfect footwear for any destination. Bon Voyage!

Shoes We Love: Summer Wedding Style: Bridesmaid Shoes

Posted by Ellen on Wednesday Jun 16, 2010
See more posts by Ellen

Even though being asked to be a Bridesmaid is an honor, we all have a small moment of sheer panic when we realize that we might end up wearing something truly hideous.  We have come a long way in wedding party fashion from those unsightly southern belle hoop-skirt nightmares from the 80′s so why shouldn’t our shoes reflect the same progression?  Ordering your Bridesmaids shoes at the same establishment you order your dress might be convenient but lets face it;  they are seriously lacking in style.  And who wants to dye shoes to match your dress (and elbow length gloves, and flowers, and table linens, etc.) to some specific color you probably won’t wear again?  These days you can make your own rules and redefine what’s conventional.  I’ve seen and heard of lots of Brides letting their wedding party pick their own style of dress and shoes as long as they stay within a particular color scheme.  I think this is a perfect way to look cohesive without sacrificing individual personality.

If you want to incorporate bows into your Bridesmaid look, you can turn heads in these:

Black Satin Joe Heels with Grommet Trim from Betsey Johnson

If you want to ruffle it up, try these:

Crinkle Fabric Red T-Strap Gim Me Sandals from Luichiny

If you want to splash in a pop of metallic sheen, you have to get these: 

Knotted Platform Baldwin Heels with a Rhinestone Buckle from Chinese Laundry

Shoes We Love: Summer Wedding Style: Catch the Bouquet Shoes

Love it or hate it, one tradition that rarely escapes any wedding reception is the Bouquet Toss.  While some of us would rather hide in the bathroom than be dragged to the center of the dance floor to be paraded in front of an entire guest list as “Single,” others of us with a secret (or not so secret) competitive edge relish this moment.

Whether you are fierce in the front of the pack ready to elbow any other lady that gets in your way or you just want to look cute and coy while you stand in the back and pretend you don’t want to catch anything;  we’ve got something for everyone.

If you want some floral inspiration on your feet to match what you catch in your hands, you must consider these:

Ivory Satin Corrine Sandals with Fabric Petals by Martinez Valero

If you are looking to put some bling and spring into your step, you have to grab these:

Mother of the Bride fashion can sometimes be forgotten on the Big Day.  With all the planning and commotion it is not unlikely that the Moms are so concentrated on getting every other detail perfect for everyone else in the wedding party, they let their look fall by the way-side.  While we appreciate and love our mothers unconditionally, we can’t have them looking a hott-mess in all those photos, right?  With these gorgeous  Mother of the Bride shoe options to chose from, she can definitely pull any look off with style and grace.

For that elegant and classy mom that needs the utmost in shoe sophistication, I suggest these:
