Latest Shoe Buys

When I was in Florida earlier this month, I fell in lust with two pairs of flats... and, of course, they came home with me! Flats are my new thing because I'm staying away from heels due to a knee issue. (This once brought me down but I'm over it because I now have an arsenal of super cute flats! Plus I'll wear those heels again soon.)

Here's the latest additions to the shoe collection (both were under $25)!


Digging those sparkles! You can find these shoes here.


So comfy and sassy! Check them out here!

Until next time, shoe lovers...

More Shoe Woo!

I went shopping today to find some shoes to go with this little summer number I recently purchased. And, of course, as you can tell by my blog name - I love me some shoes:



I've always wanted to wear something like this so I decided to just GO FOR IT! I think heels would go best with it but I'm heading to Austin soon and needed some comfy (and cute) walking shoes.

I found two pairs at Dillards for $19.99 each. Can't beat that! I love a good sale!





I also can't post about shoes without showing off another new pair I recently bought:



I'm starting ballet classes up again soon and found these for cheap on eBay!

What's a great steal you've gotten recently?

Shoe Woo

Have I mentioned to you how much I love shoes? But I love a good deal on shoes even more! I've purchased a few pairs since November... some fun and some practical! Here's what's up in my shoe world:


I got these in NYC at Shoe Woo. I saw them and it was heavenly lights were shining down upon them. I had to try them... and they fit perfectly! Nevermind that I don't have many places to wear them... ;)


A few months ago, I posted how it's difficult for us big calved girls to find boots. Well, I finally found two pairs of boots that fit my calves. I go with the slouchy style and they fit really well! I got the top pair on eBay of all places and the bottom at DSW.




Got these puppies for 70 percent off at Dillards! Love them!


I thought these were super fun for summer! Only $10 at Famous Footwear!


Another fun pair for summer that I got at Famous Footwear on sale!


It was time for new running shoes so I got these babies last week at a local store, Fleet Feet. I haven't gotten in a good run with them yet but can't wait!

What are your favorite pair of shoes that you purchased recently?

Shoe Obsessed

I used to be a flip flop only girl, but alas my tastes have changed and I only own two pairs of flip flops now. I’m really into cute heels but unfortunately just don’t have the budget to buy them all!

Here’s my current wish list (I do a lot of online “window” shopping!):


ShoeDazzle
So pretty. Love the sparkle and the detail of the flowers. But they’re out of my size. :(


Overstock
I’m all about that ruffle! So feminine!


Go Jane
I’ve in the market for a small and tall boot and I think these look relaxed and comfortable.


BCBG
I could never afford these nor would I let myself buy $300+ shoes, but I love the embellishment on this classic black peep-toe.


BCBG
This screams “the holidays!” to me! I’d love to have something like these for Christmas and New Years. They are so fun and makes my heart go pitter-patter.


BCBG
I love these edgy booties! And apparently I just have a thing for BCBG’s shoes. I only own one actual pair that I got on sale.

Now I want to hear from you. What are your recommendations for dressy, knee-high boots?

I’ve been cursed with large calves and small feet. For years now, I’ve been searching for that perfect, dressy boot. Last year I finally found a casual pair that fit! Feel free to share your wish list shoes, too!

Red Shoe Diaries

It all started when I bought the red heels. Luscious candy apple red heels. Just the perfect amount of sassy.

Turning 25 was just around the corner, and I wanted some fantastic shoes to wear on my big day. When I found THE pair, I knew they were the perfect accessory to complement my outfit. I wasn't entirely thrilled about turning 25 (which I now know is so silly) but those heels were just what I needed. It's as if they gave (and give) me an extra boost of confidence. Perfect example: this shy girl sang karaoke for the first time while wearing those heels.

They've become a staple item in my wardrobe. Anytime I want to jazz up an outfit, I grab them. Anytime I just want to feel unstoppable, those are my go-to shoes.

Exhibit A

Aren't they lovely?

I think deep down the heels symbolize a pivotal point in my life. Being 25, on my own, supporting myself, with the road of life in front of me. I can go any direction, learn from past mistakes and teach myself how to be better. I can become whomever I want to be and learn whatever I want and need to learn. The only obstacle is fear of the unknown, but I can't let it get in the way. My red heels and I are excited for the road ahead.

What is your go-to accessory when you want to wow the world?
