Are you in the mood for something fun, fresh, and fruity? No, I don’t mean breakfast at the International House of Pancakes, but the oh…DEER! Women’s Cha Cha Pump, a delicious treat with not one, but two cherries on top! Even better than the cute cherries are the two green stems that come together to form an unusual sort of T-strap. With a leather upper and a comfortable insole. The heel is approximately 2-1/2 inches. Ooh la la!

Gear up for summer (yes, summer is nearly here already) with these Caden Thongs by Tommy Hilfiger. Available in pink, black and brown (shown here). The scroll detail on the straps of these flip-flops add a bit of flair to a standard sandal - but all the comfort and style is still there for those long walks on the beach.

I just found out that Crocs™ has been selling a fashion line that combines cool new looks with their existing, famed, comfortable Croslite™ material. The new line is called YOU by Crocs™ and this one pair in particular, the French Riviera, a wedge sandal, made of a patent leather upper, totally rocks! Is it possible to be comfortable in a high heeled (3-inch heel with a 3/4″ platform) sandal? Apparently, with a footbed made of Crocs™ Soulful™ technology, the answer is, “Yes!” Here is what the official Crocs™ website says:

“The YOU by crocs™ insole has Crocs’ proprietary Croslite™ material to add extreme comfort to the entire foot bed with extra padding in pressure point areas such as the heel and ball-of-the-foot. Croslite™ technology combined with other natural, high-end materials creates YOU by crocs™ Soleful™ technology.”

From your own backyard, to the beach, to the runway, Crocs™ are everywhere! I’m dying to try these. Available from Piperlime.com, where you will get free shipping and free returns.

Somebody, please give me $300 so I can buy the “Jaika” mary jane wedges by Mephisto. Mephisto quality and comfort are legendary and actually, this is the first pair of women’s Mephisto shoes that has spoken to me. Jaika is saying, “Buy me. You know you love wedge heels and mary janes. I am both. You cannot resist my cuteness.” All right already. It looks as if I will get my Economic Stimulus Payment in a paper check in June, according to this IRS schedule. Yay! I can get these Mephistos next month. How do you want to spend your Economic Stimulus Payment? Don’t take a trip overseas, that’s not the point. Use it in the good ‘ol U.S. of A. Tell us in the comments section.

I’m not entirely convinced yet about the motives of the Blackspot Shoes, which are part of the “Adbusters” organization. The philosophy behind it is Open Source Shoes:

People were jaded by megacorporate control of so much of their lives, but couldn’t see how they might take some power back… The result is the world’s first open-source brand: Blackspot Shoes. Earth-friendly, cruelty-free, made by a small, union shop in Portugal, Blackspots represent a radical, no-compromise experiment. The ultimate goal is to break the monopolies of giant corporations, and create a new kind of grassroots capitalism.

They currently have two shoes, the Blackspot Unswoosher and The Classic Blackspot Sneaker. By “unswoosher”, they’re targeting Nike. Pretty funny. The sneakers include a 100% organic hemp upper and are designed by John Fluevog. I’m not sure about the philosophy yet: it sure is easy to take swipes at the big corporate shoe companies. And the adbusters website seems pretty “corporate” in itself. As for the shoes, besides the blank logo and the fact that they’re made by a smaller union shop - what’s the end difference?

When I think of “red maryjanes,” I think of little girl shoes. But these are definitely shoes for a different sort of playground. The vintage style Eddiie maryjane pumps by Madden Girl are sweet and flirty with its soft pleated round toe (my favorite style!), adjustable buckle strap (love the round buckle!), nice perforation detail (love the look of swiss dots) and… oh look! A sexy slingback heel and a little peep toe! The 2.5″ stacked heel gives a little lift, and the cushioned insole will provide comfortable wear.

Available in basic black and red, at Shoes.com.

Summer has announced its arrival here in Southern California by delivering temperatures in the lower 90s this week. That’s why this pair of Jessica Simpson Dadia Ankle Strap Espadrilles particularly appealed to me today. The linen-look fabric upper and the braided rope 3 and 3/4 inch heel and 1-inch platform will keep you feeling cool and looking hot all summer long. Wear these espadrilles with your daisy dukes!

Shown here in black linen, but also available in white linen and neon blue linen. From Endless.com.
