Black + Gold + Studs

Even though i'm suffering through a cold, it's not holding my back from sharing these new gems I got for my gams. My first ShoeMint purchase arrived the other day. I was a little worried that the 7.5 might not work, but they were perfect! The soft suede fabric feels like butter. But my favorite is the gold details freckled across the toes. The few studs & spikes add a slightly masculine touch that kind of make you feel like a sexy bad ass. Am I right?

Ruth + ShoeMint

Just ordered these lovelies from ShoeMint this evening. I've been looking for a pair of black heels and with the metallic detailing, I think these are a winner. Ruth comes not just in black, but in nude & blue as well. But i'm in dire need of black pumps.

ShoeMint had a sweet deal of $30 off your 1st order. Can't really beat that! If you are unfamiliar with ShoeMint, they are similar (in concept) to ShoeDazzle, but better quality shoes. {See my previous post here}. Don't get me wrong, Shoedazzle is great for trendy inexpensive pieces, but ShoeMint is better for those pieces that can transition seasons, regardless of trends.

Follow this link, tell them I sent you (yes I get points for referrals} & then refer all your friends as well!! Enjoy!

I'd suggest you click your way here, sign up for ShoeDazzle (tell em I referred you) and get you a sassy pair before they sell out!

On the Bright Side

I decided to officially bring out my new ShoeDazzle heels and give them a test drive. Aren't they great? I'm surprised at how comfortable they are. Maybe I'm just getting old, but it's been hard to walk in super tall heels like these, but these are good! I can't wait to mix them in with more outfits. They are the perfect pop of color that will brighten your day!

In the Shadows

I'm kind of glad the weekend is over. I had fun catching up with old friends, shopping till i couldn't shop any more at Trader Joe's, and I managed to go to Target every day last week. {it's a problem, i know, i'm looking for a Target 12 step program} I decided to start the week off with these amazing leopard print heels from Shoedazzle. These were from their buy one get one free sale. I was a little iffy on if they would even be comfortable, and they are really comfortable. Except they are a tad small, but i'm working on stretching them with the sock & hair dryer trick. So far it's worked! One more stretch and these beauties will be ready to hit the dance floor!

Since I've been off most of the past week, I've been going commando on the foot wear. However, I have had some highlights that i thought needed to but put in print. I would have captured the whole look, but since my pets don't have thumbs, it makes it hard to find someone to capture the full glory of my outfits. So this will just have to do! Enjoy!

ANIMAL PRINT!!

Now there are all different types of animal print that can be found out there; zebra, cheetah, giraffe, ostrich, and so on. But in my world, lets be real, leopard is the only print that counts. I'm obsessed with leopard print. In fact as i'm typing this, there are 4 pairs of leopard prints shoes giving me the evil eye as we speak. Now i'm bold enough to rock the silk leopard shorts & ankle booties at any point, but I do know some folks who would NEVER wear leopard. Not in shorts and not in a scarf. To those i offer a simpler options who want to rock the leopard without feeling like it's wearing you; accessories!!! J. Crew offers hints of leopard in sunglasses, scarves & even iphone cases.

But if you're feeling a little bolder, perhaps rock some flats or even a handbag.

Now for folks like me (in fact I need that shirt in a large, but can't find it) who like to be noticed, but in a good way!

Now go out & rock your leopard print ladies!

May the GRRRRR be with you!!

New Heights

I really am obsessed with platform wedges. I just bought 3 new wedges in the last month. None shorter than 5 inches. I think it's due to the fact that i'm only 5'1". When i should be winding down for the evening, i'm thinking and obsessing over how i "need" new wedges. In my dream these little beauties appeared on my feet. Perhaps I should force myself to sleep to dream of these beauties!
Sleep tight lovers!

Prehistoric Runway

So I watched Christian Siriano's Having a Moment tonight on Bravo. Isn't he just adorable? However did anyone notice the shoes? Did I miss the memo where shoes are now going to be made of horns and look like something completely out of this world? McQueen did it with his Armadillo shoes, but now Christian Siriano is doing it for.... No not Saks or Neimans. Not even Dillard’s. Who then? Umm how bout Payless!!! Yeah his shoes should be around $79.99. No matter how delicious they are can you really walk into Payless and spend $79 on one item? Hopefully the shoes design will be toned down for the masses. Not sure the Payless crowd can handle the fierceness!
