This blog is about my latest shoe finds. It's named "Imelda's Shoes" in honor of the former First Lady of the Philippines who reportedly had thousands of pairs of shoes in her personal collection:) You'll find a picture, maker, purchase price, and store name with each entry. I invite my followers to email me their amazing shoe finds to post on the blog at patriciakim@hotmail.com. Let's share and enjoy our shoe passion together!

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:)

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.

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 love these boots, I've worn them throughout the holiday season with anything I can find! So comfy and chic with the brass buckle detail on the side. My favorite thing about htem is that they fit around my athletic calves easily and stay up!

My favorite shoe for 2010:) This is a lambskin open toe platform bootie with a corset lace front and cut out back. Ok, they're on this side of slutty but everyone needs a pair of black Dominatrix shoes in their closet! Love'em:)
