The Look: They’re red. Therefore they’re awesome! While that isn’t precisely true, I don’t have a lot of shoes that aren’t black, white or some level of tan. The slightly orange tinge also makes it hard to find something to wear with them as well as a shade of polish that won’t look off. But…
The Look: Age shows a bit. I’ve had this pair of shoes for I can’t remember how many years. I still love the straps across the toe box, narrow strands interwoven as they crisscross. The dark tan color shows my lighter skin in a beautiful contrast. Sadly, it’s a platform wedge with a 3″ inch…
The Look: Once I was able to get past the pointed toe – it’s really not my preference even in pumps where it adds something – I found that I could really like the appearance of these shoes. The cutout on the inner side exposes the arch of the foot and then there’s the 4.5…
The Look: Very nice if you like white satin sandals and with this brand of shoe, it’s also nice if you don’t. The Dyeables line are all dyeable. You pick your color (send them a swatch if you need precise) and they will match it and dye your shoes. It’s also quite affordable at around…
The Look: This is a pretty standard nice wedge sandal. I love the braid across the toes, a narrow ribbon of gold interwoven with the beige. The heel is only 3 inches, however and that counts the platform. So, it’s not high heeled and that affects its beauty. The Fit: Of course I had to…
The Look: While I think this is clearly a pump, the toe box is neither a closed nor a peep-toe style, but more like a lace look band on a sandal. The heel is very low and counteracts the open inner sides which normally makes for a sexy shoe. The Fit: Another rare 6.5 M…
The Look: In many ways this is a step outside my normal taste. Lots of straps and buckles, a low block heel and brown. Those at least. It isn’t an ugly shoe, but almost all of the rest of my collection are prettier. The Fit: One of the few 6 1/2 size shoes that an…
The Look: I think I mentioned before that the peep-toe design isn’t a favorite, but here’s another pair where it seems to work. The pleated toe box doesn’t quite have the same effect as on the Rebecca design by the same manufacturer; the material used doesn’t really have a fabric enough look to carry it…
The Look: For looks, this is one of my very favorite type of sandals. It’s a bikini for the feet, meaning that it’s almost naked. The heel cup in back is the only exception and that just raises the appearance from sexy to classy. Black with silver touches everywhere will look sharp with almost any…
The Look: While I don’t go for the peep-toe style very often, I really think this shoe makes it work well. Off white and the silky look of the fabric across the toes, the pump style heel cup and a strap around the ankle combine to make this a beautiful shoe. And, while it doesn’t…
