I just started reading this book, Shoe Addicts Anonymous (Hardcover) by Beth Harbison. It’s one of three books on my nightstand right now. So many books, so little time! First of all, the title grabbed my attention. How could it not? I was also attracted to the pink cover and …

On a rare occasion, I went shopping at the mall with my sister over the weekend, and these lovely patent Carly Flats called out to me from a display window. I stopped dead in my tracks and just had to go inside and ask the dreaded question, “do you have …

I just got some Croc-like shoes from Lands End because unlike Crocs there are not holes near the toes. I want to wear them gardening and so I don’t want things, especially bugs, to get to my toes! There are little tiny bumps on the bottom of the insole …

The CAMPER Women’s 20486 combines many of my favorite style elements — the mary jane, the wedge heel, the wing-tip look, and the color green — into one brilliant pair of shoes. With the trusted comfort features you’ve come to expect from Camper — the cushioned insole, smooth lining, and …

The Bandolino - Naveen is another pair of pink shoes that I bought recently. My goal is to have the largest pink shoe collection west of the Mississippi. Well, here we have a sweet 2 and 3/4-inch leather wrapped wedge-heeled peep-toe slingback in a pink leather upper, with a manmade …

I’ve been looking around for a sort of “multiple-duty” standard brown oxford to replace the ones I have now. These ECCO Arlanda Oxfords caught my eye the other day. Perhaps they might be a bit too formal for the usage that I’m thinking of - I wanted something a …

It took me all of two seconds to decide to keep this pair of Clarks Women’s Chord Skimmer once I received it in the mail. I think that Clarks run pretty true to size, unless it’s their Artisan line, which tends to run big. Anyway, this is another pair of …

I’m always looking for comfortable work shoes and I love wedge heels so when I found the Dexter Women’s Eliza, some preppy low-heeled loafers, I thought I’d give them a try. I couldn’t resist trying out the pillowy Dexflex® comfort insole and the handmade Dexter quality. My sister tried to …

Surprise your special little girly girl with the Sam & Libby Girls’ Danna Flat. I actually own this pair. You may think it’s weird that a grown woman would have little girls’ shoes, but I just may never grow out of t-strap mary janes and embroidered floral details. I think …

Gothic & Lolita (Paperback)
by Masayuki Yoshinaga

Last weekend I had the pleasure of killing thirty minutes at the bookstore with Gothic & Lolita, a pictorial book about the “Gothic” and “Lolita” fashion scenes in Japan. Some of the outfits featured were very imaginative, creative, unique, and cute, while others …

I am a new believer in ECCO shoes now that I have tried the ECCO - Aruba Slingback, a very comfortable pair of wedge slingback sandals. It’s clear that real ingenuity went into the design of these seemingly simple-looking sandals. The 2-and-1/2 inch stacked wedge heel height is perfect and …

OK, so we all have been living with the whole roller shoe phenomenon - bright-eyed, young maniacs on shoes with wheels everywhere. Hey, I’m cool with it because I’m still able to dodge out of the way when they come speeding down the walkway at the mall. …

If I have to pick just *one* pair of shoes that sum up the perfect summer, these Winona ankle-strap flats by Shellys London are it. Don’t they remind of you of those long summer days, where the best days are spent outdoors lounging on a fresh cut lawn, waiting for …
