red patent mossimo vanda pump. red hot. July 1, 2009

Happy July, everybody! To celebrate the month of American freedom and independence, here’s a lovely red shoe. Look at the heel! I don’t really like pointy-toed shoes all that much, but I love the heel height and the gorgeous candy apple color of this shoes. I would wear it with a little black dress (or maybe a blue one for a Fourth of July celebration?) to add a delicious pop of color.

gorgeous and red.

Target is selling these babies here, for the clearance price of $20.98.  They also come in black. Sizes include 5.5 to 10 for the red and 5.5 t0 10 and 11 for the black. Spice things up this July.

spats style knee high boots. gangster. June 17, 2009

I’ll probably be telling you to help out Vitamin Angels (look at the bottom of that sidebar to your right) for at least a week, so check out yesterday’s post for full details. Go!

So, Plasticland, where these delicious boots are from, claims that these are fashioned after the 1930’s gangster style. Huh. I never knew that gangsters wore heels and spats. This just puts my view of the old-time mob into a whole new perspective. But I digress. I love them. Truly. Sure I say that a lot on this blog, but my feelings are genuine. Too bad I love more items than I can afford. Curse you, money! Ahem. I’m not really sure what I would style with these boots, but it makes me want to wear an old Victorian dress and tiny top hat a la the movie, Dracula. The costumes in that movie were simply superb, even if the movie wasn’t. Good luck finding such an outfit.

i see you're gangster. i'm pretty gangster myself.

At least you can buy these boots! Get them here, for $59. Sizes run small and are available in 6 through 9 (with no half sizes in between), but the good news is that they are vegan friendly, like all of the Plasticland shoes that I list. Yay for tree-huggers!

fashion friday. dresses, tights, and ankle boots. June 12, 2009

Okay, so I decided to present these outfits in a different way this time (and future times, probably), by using Polyvore to put the clothes into one cohesive image, rather than a million different pictures. Those pictures were extremely hard to format, and while I do not consider this way any better, in terms of aesthetics (on the contrary, I did like the find the other way better to look at), I do find it much, much easier to do. So there you go. This week I put together a cute, sleeveless dress, footed tights, and ankle boots for your viewing pleasure. Once again, these outfits are put together by category: under $20, under $40, and under $1000. The over $1000 category is way too impractical and works mostly for single items, rather than whole outfits, so don’t expect to happen any time soon. Anyway, onto the outfits!

All of the items above are priced less than $20. What you can’t see in this picture of those white (“cream”) tights is that they have a lace pattern on them that is quite nice. You can get them here, at Forever21, and they are on sale for $2.99. I think that three dollars for tights is lovely, don’t you? Next up, the dress. It’s $19.50 at Wet Seal, here, and comes in sizes small to large. Okay, so the deal with those boots? Newport News (those bastards…) do not have a picture of the shoe color that I chose from their website. What kind of retailer are they?! Disgusting… But, they *did* have a swatch of the color, which is what is in front of you now. Yeah, that purple color. Your job: imagine those boots, in that color. And get them here, for $17.99, and choose from sizes 5 to 10 and 11.

All of the items above are priced less than $40. These tights are so gorgeously purple (or “lily,” as Shopbop describes them…), and I love them. Get them here, for $36. They come in sizes small to medium/large (with two sizes in between, so go check it out). Next up, that lovely dress. Lace is a love of mine, of course. I think the contrast of girly and down-to-earth (from the boots) make for a nice combination. Get it here, at Forever21, for $22.80. The dress comes in sizes extra small to large. I really like these boots, as well, although I know that some of you dear readers won’t. They are cowboy boots, after all. You can buy them here, in sizes 6 to 9, from Wet Seal.

All of the items above are priced less than $1000. I like this outfit most of all (at least, I think so… I really like all of the outfits, though), mostly because of the boots and the dress. So retro! Anyway, the tights are available here, at Shopbop, and they come in size 4 (which I take to mean the regular tights sizing and not juniors or misses sizing…). Yes, they are foldover, but who’s really going to see that when you have that dress on? Also, I know that these only have one size available right now, but I’m so sure that that will change soon that I decided to post them anyway. So there. The dress is from Anthropologie (after that disgusting romper, I needed something to remind me how awesome this store is most of the time…), and you can find it here, for $128. It comes in sizes extra small to large. Finally, those fabulous boots! Look at that bow! Get them here, at ModCloth, for $42.99. You can choose from sizes 5.5 to 9, and you better. Who better to wear these shoes than one of my readers? Oh, right. ME.

monday mania. fergie women’s mission. June 8, 2009

Why, yes. I do have a blog, now don’t I? Damn… Well, dear readers, I am back from a vacation of nothing. Which is to say that it was perfectly lovely. But back to blogging!

fergie women's mission.

You can buy them here, at Shoes.com for $109. They come in sizes 5.5 to 10 in this magenta (a.k.a. purple) leather, 5 to 10 and 11 for the taupe leather (which isn’t too bad and makes a nice neutral shoe), 5.5 to 10 and 11 for the blue leather (which is just as vibrant and gorgeous as the magenta one), and 5 to 10 and 11 in the black leather. Beware this leather is goat leather, which I did not know, so I’m just warning you in case you are vegan or something. More power to you, I say.

monday mania. platform sandal pumps. May 25, 2009

Another feature! Because I hate Mondays, these posts will be similar to Slacker Saturdays, in which I just post a picture and a link. Yay!

turquoise miami mama platform sandal pumps.

You can find them here, at Plasticland, for $42. They come in sizes 5.5 to 9 and 10. Enjoy!

sunday shopping spree. strappy heels. May 24, 2009

Hello, dear readers! This week, I have found five different pairs of shoes, that are mostly black (except one), and none cost less than $20. I guess all that material is expensive? I don’t know. Many of them remind me of those Dollhouse shoes I wrote about earlier but, you know, less expensive. Here you go:

studded wrap platform heel.

These high-heeled loves are from Wet Seal, here, for $26.50, as the cheapest in the bunch. They come in sizes 6 to 9 and 10. Four and a half inch heel! Outrageous…

women's mossimo paulina gladiator sandals - black patent.

I’ve had these shoes in my bookmarks for awhile, so I was surprised to see that Target still had a lot of sizes. Good job with supply, Target! Unlike some other places… (Charlotte Russe, I’m looking at you.) Get them here, for $26.99, in sizes 5.5 to 10 and 11, which is pretty wide ranged, if you ask me.

jada cage stiletto.

With way more straps than the rest and a heel that’s more than five inches, these shoes are easily the most extragavant in the bunch. Get them here, from Forever21, in sizes 6 through 9, with no half sizes in between. They also cost $29.80, which is what you’d expect from Forever21, with their weird prices.

studded peeptoe pumps.

Yay! The only brown pair! Look at those studs. Many people may not like the brown and gold combination, but I find it refreshing, next to black and silver ones. For $32.80, you can pick from sizes 6 through 9 (again, no half sizes), here, at Forever21.

pleaser women's lip-153.

Last in the list, are these five inchers, from Pleaser, a brand known for their sexy shoes. You can find them here, at Shoes.com. They are $44 and come in sizes 5 through 16 (!!!) with no half sizes. Good luck walking in them, though.

guess camalai. black patent lust. May 18, 2009

Well, hello there, dear readers! Did you miss me? Of course you did. I decided to take a little break after finals and pack my things for home, instead of writing blog posts. I missed it, though, so I’m back, after a week of boxes, bags, and no school. Awesome. Anyway, on to the shoes! These dandies are by one of my favorite brands: Guess. I think that most of their merchandise is tasteful and classic. Too bad I have nothing from them. You can, though, with these black patent shoes. They would work well with footed stockings, jeans, or a fabulous dress. I would probably get a lot of mileage out of them by dressing them up or down. I love heels.

ooo, shiny.

You can get them here, at Shoes.com for the twenty percent off price of  $89.99. They come in sizes 7.5 to 8.5, 9.5, and 10, so I’m sorry for those small-footed readers. Maybe next time?
