Paris Hilton makes wearable shoes?

When I first heard that Paris Hilton was designing shoes, I shuddered… and then completely forgot about.  Until I was browsing through Zappos and came across these charming patent leather “Chino” flats:

They’re wearable…
And pretty…
And not the hooker shoe monstrosity I was expecting!  Now, not all the shoes in the collection thrill me, but I was […]

Mouse shoes from Marc Jacobs

A person could argue that no woman over the ago of, oh - say 10 years, should wear shoes with faces…
But these patent leather mouse shoes from Marc Jacobs are just too adorable to not mention:

Cute, no?
Suitable for wearing to sit in a cafe and sip coffee or browse through your favorite bookstore… just avoid […]

fashion & comfort in a flat shoe

I’m going to be spending an awful lot of time on my feet this summer - I’m teaching a series of art camps.  I need a shoe that’s going to be comfortable & supportive from 7am to 5pm… as well a shoe that still looks pretty.
Tall order, huh?
I think that the charming mary-jane flat “Millie […]

Celebrate Earth Day with environmentally friendly accessories

It’s Earth Day today - now, I’m one of those people who think that we should be more Earth-friendly every day… but it’s still a good day to focus on products that are better for our environment :-)
Let’s start off with the “Baldaci” shoe from Timberland:

It’s got an organic cotton upper and lining made using […]

Betsey Johnson shoes for a Monday

It’s Monday.
You’re back at your desk.
Wondering where the heck the weekend got to.
Need something to cheer you up?
Betsey Johnson always manages to cheer me up!

Easy to wear and light-hearted - the “Crescent” flat.
Or if you prefer a high heel, there’s the “Warwick“:

interesting shoe names

I love this orange patent peep-toe by Irregular Choice:

But the name doesn’t thrill me…
Who the heck came up with name “Lick Me” for that lovely spring-time flat?  Shoe fetishists?

Prada’s new shoe collection from Trembled Blossom

I love Prada’s new shoe collection - they’re so feminine :-)

This is the “Camoscio” glamor suede sandal (and it’s so popular that there are buying limits!)

Or if you prefer a flat sandal, how about the patent leather “Vernice Flower” sandal?

shopping the hot colors for fall 2008 - burnt orange

Burnt orange is one of the hot colors for fall, but can be challenging to find sometimes…
Luckily the “Desi” by Max Studio fits the bill!

Patent leather, with enough of a peep-toe to dress it up :-)
