Maker: Bernardo
Price: 180.00 on sale for 59.00
Store: ideeli.com

Another nostalgic trip down shoe memory lane-Bernardos.  This was an iconic 80's sandal brand when I was in Jr. High/Highschool.  My old friend Lucy Antoci used to wear them all the time and I remember how great they looked with short tiered mini skirts, drop waste t-shirt dresses, and little mexican dresses! Think Valley Girl:) I've been coveting a pair for awhile now and this classic organic O-ring style is something I've wanted since they came back on the market a few years ago...but I would ever pay 180.00 dollars for a pair of thong sandals, you could imagine my  delight when ideeli had a Bernardo sale:)  Channeling Moon Zappa now!

This is it for me on nude colored heels!!!  I had to get another pair from my favorite line, especially when they're on sale.  Picked up this awesomely cute pair with a nice leather flower detail at the toe.  I love the way these fit and are made, I plan on wearing them with a Miguelina dress in a soft peachy nude color!



Maker: Charles David
Price: 287.00 on sale for 68.00
Store: smartbargains.com

I really love when I can get a pair of Charles David shoes at 60% off.  These are a nice gold pair with a stunning gold metal heel.  Gold heels are great, in the summer, pair with white and neutrals and in the winter, they really take the LBD up a sexy notch.  Not a huge fan of Charles David, I think they are over priced for their quality but a pair on sale, I'll live with the pain:)



Maker: Soda
Price: 10.00
Store: Ross

Not all days can be high heel days! To continue with my obsession over nude colored shoes, I stumbled on these flat thong sandals at Ross.  Love the nude colore stones an rhinestones which dress them up a bit.  SODA is a junior brand that makes geat summer sandals for not a lot of money- one season wear but fun an trendy!

Maker: Miss Sixty
Price: 280.00 on sale for 68.00
Store: smartbargains.com

Summer is here and this year the short-short is back, not to mention the trendy yet unfortunate romper style.  Either way, the best way to make legs look good in short denim or white shorts is to wear a wedge.  Wedges take you out of slutty into sexy and not trying to hard in an instant.  I happen to love wedges, comfy and leggy looking at the same time.  Thi summer a neutral wedge is must, here is a par from Miss Sixty- trendy bran, but these are super light weight a have the stone detail so popular toay which can be worn with you guessd it, all manner of short shorts or rompers this summer!  I did buy an olive green safari cut romper-lor help me:)


Maker: Charles Jourdan
Price: 385.00 on sale for 129.00
Store: ruelala.com

Feeling nostalgic lately and I came upon this brand at one of the sale sites.  In the 80's my mom must have had at least 10 pairs of shoes from Charles Jourdan, this bran was one of her favorites so I don't think my shoe collection is complete without at least a pair from this line.  These are super high black platform sandals, LOVE the gold detail in the back, very chic, very french, and very Charles Jourdan.  I still remember a pair of my moms that I use to steel and wear out all the time, lambskin mustard colored slingback pumps...most comfy pair of heels I can remember!

My obsession this summer witht he nude colored platform heel continues with this pair:)  This is a nice dobe strap platfrm perfect for short skirts and skinny jeans.  Plan on wearing them to work a lot this summer, that 4.5 inch heel provides a nice lift!

Price:112.00 on sale from 374.00
Store: endless.com

Fabulously sexy shoes in a neutral color! What's not to love? Pura Lopez is a Spanish brand but the leather on these shoes is butter soft.  They have such a sexy vibe to them, its perfect to tone down bright dresses and best of all they make your legs look like the go on forever:) Can you just see these on the dance floor!

Maker: Por La Victoire

OK, this is the last pair of boots for the season, I just had to have them!!! Flat, over the knee style in congnac color.  The leather is butter soft and the color is perfect, these are perfect with tights or jeans either way, I think these will last for a long time b/c the style is so classic.  Can be scrunched down and worn lower but I love them over the knee!!!

Maker: STEVEN by Steve Madden
Price: 185.00 on slae for 59.00
Store: Ruelala.com

Steve Madden has this hgher end line called STEVEN, the shoes are edgy and designed for more of a frugal fashionista that wants the Dior Addict look without the price.  Nude cut out booties, get over yourself, I tried these on and they make your legs look mile high, the nude color and the 4.25 heel height help and they looked really good with a bright yellow Rachel Pally dress I just got too.  Going to be sporting these around in the summer time:)
Maker: Rock & Republic
Price: 185.00 on sale for 49.00
Store: Hautelook.com

A flat thong O-ring thong red patent sandal from one of my favorite brands.  Rock & Republic makes great jeans but I really love their shoes!  Needless to say, who pays almost 200.00/pair for a flip flop sandal??? Not me:)  So when I saw these on one of the sale sites, I had to have them.  They are going to be perfect with a black shift dress or a blk/wht gingham sundress for that Palm Beach Jackie O look in the summer.  What keeps them from looking to sweet is the metal studs...did I mention I love this brand!!!! It's the unexpected details like studs that make it so fresh and current.

Maker: BCBG
Price: 59.00
Store:Smart Bargains

So my heart's desire is a pair of FRYE boots, but till I can get myself to plunk down 300-500 bucks for them this pair will have to do.  This is chunky heeled black suede pull on boot with a rounded toe.  So comfy and it has that really cool 70's FRYE vibe without the FRYE price. They look awesome with a sweater dress or a denim skirt for that "Boho chic I follow the LA  music scene look":)

Last week a good friend of mine rocked some over the knee flat boots to work...I've been reisisting this style for awhile now b/c of the whole Julia Roberts/Pretty Woman thing and I did rock a pair of these back in the club days circa 1990 with some hot pants so I did not want to revisit the trend, but, the way she wore them, tights, a tunic top, jacket and leggings looked so fresh and current that I went and ordered a pair this past weekend:)  I'll be wearing these to work with a tunic top and leggings as well....good to know that my thighs can still handle an over the knee style;)  Oh, my buddy scored an awesome deal on her pair at one of the sale sites but I got these for 1/4 of what she paid, the leather is nice, not as soft as hers, but for a trendy boot, these will do...BTW, you can scrunch them down or cuff them too.

I saw these on sale and had to have them, they are going to be perfect for spring dresses and the heel height is low but the sexy, twisty open toe makes up for it!!!  Coral toe nails for Spring 2010 and these should be just right:)
