The Look: While gold is one of my least chosen colors, this shoe makes it work very well. The platform and heel have a dark gold sparkle that closely matches the center ring. Lighter gold straps and sole soften the overall appearance in a complementary way. The slingback gives the shoe a more minimal…
The Look: It’s a pretty shoe with nice smoke colored rhinestones across the toe band, crisscross straps over the instep, 4 inch stiletto heels and a heel cup with a zipper. For me, zippers don’t add anything to the looks of a shoe and, to a fairly small degree, they detract from the overall…
The Look: Lots of nice black cables, crisscrossing, the knot in the middle, the heel cup, the stiletto heel combine to make this more an interesting shoe than an actually pretty one. Add that the cables are close enough to the point that only 3 toes show easily in front of the cables, the 4th…
I’m changing the format a little, starting off with a paragraph that has history or something I want to say that isn’t related to the various points I usually address about a pair of shoes. With this pair, I deliberately went looking for a pair of shoes that was Fuchsia. My favorite online shoe source…
The Look: These shoes have to be just awesomely beautiful. Why? Because I designed them. Kind of. The Shoes of Prey website has design capability where you make choices and design your shoes from the available options. These are white soft leather with a contrasting black outer sole, the heel cup, an ankle strap and…
The Look: It’s an absolutely gorgeous shoe, sparkling in the light, only a single band across the toes and a crisscross on the instep and a zippered heel cup to finish. The heel is decently high, though only 4″, and there’s a nice platform. The Fit: This one aspect makes me want to start up…
The Look: This shoe is quite diverse from my normal tastes. While still technically still a sandal, the number and proximity of the straps results in very little of the foot showing. I like the design on the top, reminiscent of Native American bead work. Also, the picture to the side being flipped from the…
The Look: In a moment of madness, I considered the fact that I had no lace-up shoes to be a bad thing and bought a couple pair. I don’t mind the look at all, the laces kind of sexy even. And this pair has the minimal strap across the toe that I do like from…
The Look: The picture says it all. They’re fluffy pink slippers. With a platform and a 4.5 inch heel. Both the platform and the heel are clear, unfortunately. My preference would have had both fabric covered and pink. The Fit: As snug as the toe box is, the shoe should be only a 6.5, but…
The Look: First the good. They’re green. It is, for some reason, hard to find shoes that are green. I also love the ankle strap and the open sides, especially the inner side. The pleated fabric on the toe box is also very nice. But, they’re peep-toe design and they have that silly bow. The…
