United Kingdom of Shoes!

Taran — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 04:10:50 +0000

I was so late in posting the horoscopes this month! My extreme apologies! For the past two weeks, I have been on holiday in the UK. I had such an amazing time and let me tell you… the shoes there…AWESOME!

Shoes are practically in every store there! And some stores have the greatest prices. I went out with my friends in Glasgow and she made me go get some amazing stilettos! I know, poor me right?

Check my AMAZING patent stilettos out! I went out for a night on the town in these! And boy, a night did I have!
Anyway, I’m back and back in force. I did happen to get some other shoes over there that I’ve either found on one of my favorite shoe websites, or look alikes (which we all know and love so much!)

An overly sexy silhouette fused with a comfortable footbed is what you get, when you slip into the Flipp pump! Patent leather upper. Round toe. Leather lining. Covered platform and stiletto heel.

C lick the here to buy at Zappos.com now!

The other 2 pairs I acquired on vacation were for work. Check these out, gorgeous two toned mary janes!

You don't have to spend a huge Chunk of Change to get this darling style from Not Rated. The value-priced cutie features a mixed leather upper in a tri-colored palette, while an oversize buckle creates an adjustable fit.

And last but not least, I got these sexy stacked heel loafers!

Style is a go for this tailored oxford bootie from Steve Madden. A natural fabric upper is accented with an animal print leather and lace up front finished with a stacked 1/4 inch platform and 4 1/4 inch heel.

Have you ever had one of those (stupid freaking) days? Where you are just waiting for the clock to yell at you to go home, leave work, never come back?!

Well, I find that those are the days when I walk in my front door, peel off the work attire (aka, your “disguise” as my mother used to call it) and slip into something that is YOU. Totally and utterly you.

Whether it be your sweats, heavy black eyeliner or heck, even kitten powder (prowr!) these are the things that make *everything* better.

Me? I usually have something going on after work, ahem…. yes, it’s usually drinkies and munchies with some of the peeps! Who doesn’t love that? Unwind with some cocktails and some girl talk!! But first, I have to be ME.

I get home, peel off my disguise and don my “me” clothes”. Ok, ok, it’s usually jeans with something… BUT, I always have great shoes. Because even after a crappy day, shoes make me SO happy! *happy sigh*

So, what shoes make you happy?

Here are a few of my favorites – that put a bounce in my step, a twinkle in my eye and knowing smile on my lips!

What woman doesn’t feel amazing in a classic red pump? Even in jeans! Jessica Simpson can do some sexy pumps, huh? Check this out and click the pic to buy!

Collect compliments in these classic pumps from Jessica Simpson. Nolita brings you shiny red patent leather throughout with a flattering pointed toe and 4 inch stiletto heel.

Ok, ok, I know. You totally reconize these shoes as, oh yes!, the Carrie Bradshaw stolen shoes!! Look-alikes, anyway. These make me feel so good. Hands down. Period. No other explanation needed. Pelle Moda thank you!

Bring an extra hint of class to your next night out with this pump from Pelle Moda. The Ion features a rich leather upper with delicate pleats and sparkling rhinestones at the toe. A d'Orsay cut shows off your arches, while the leg-lengthening stiletto is every girl's best friend.

And these, my friends, are when you just need to vamp things up and feel (and look) amazing! All the girls will be eying your shoes (HA! and the guys eying YOU!) in these sexy heels by Nine West! And of course, as always, click the pic to buy now!

You'll be the epitome of style and class in these heels from Nine West®. Adjustable buckle closure. Leather upper with multiple strap detail over instep. Peep toe. Man-made lining. Cushioned man-made footbed. 1/2" covered platform. Stacked heel. Man-made sole. 4" heel. 1/2" platform.

So, ladies and gents, go out there – be YOU – have fun, live life – and wear FABULOUS shoes!
