Pretty And Haute Burberry Shoe

I stopped by Saks Fifth Avenue in the Galleria today to pick up some mascara as I am running low, and couldn't help but get a glimpse of this beauty.

How gorgeous is this shoe? I had to stop and admire its beauty, it is absolutely gorgeous. I was honestly surprised when I saw the name of the designer, too- not what I would first have expected from them.

BURBERRY is the designer of the shoe, and bravo. I have my eye on it- its just too pretty of a shoe to ignore. The heel, the color, the texture and design of the straps, the toe- gorgeous!

Pretty Peachy And A Beautiful Shoe

It has been rainy these past few days, but something different has come about it this time- a crisp coolness is now officially in the air. It feels slightly like winter- enough to be pleasant and comfortable.

This means I can bring out the wraps, furs, tights, and other fashionable items which have been patiently waiting in my closet.

I collect random cute accessories as I find them, and when it comes to winter accessories I tend to put them away until the season arrives- not thinking too much into my wardrobe just yet.

So now that it is cool and I am able to brings such items out, I was anxious to finally wear this cashmere and wool wrap with the little bunny fur balls. Cashmere, wool, a delicate pink peach color I love, and fur- the perfect combination for me of what I love in fashion! So when I took this out I remembered I had a skirt of the same color that would go perfectly with it- add lace and a bow in the same shade- fashion perfection.

I don't think I could have planned such a perfect match- I am quite pleased with the results.

I love how things work out that way! The look comes together as completely girly, classy, sophisticated, feminine and absolutely glamorous.

Now... about those shoes..

I do love a haute shoe, and I think these are gorgeous. Black and shiny with all the right curves- these are a classic fun shoe by Marciano from Guess. I couldn't resist but indulge in these.

They have the cute allure of a Mary Jane but all the glamor of a high heel. The little curve from beneath the toes which are rounded and gold buckle of the strap separate it from other black pumps, keeping it unique and interesting.

These shoes stand out from a distance and can really vamp an otherwise ordinary outfit. I am having lots of fun with them and am looking forward to incorporating them more into my wardrobe.

Oh Michael, I'm All Lolita Again

I love Michael Kors and his shoes are no exception. Sophisticated, elegant, and incredibly sexy- they are a must for any one. My collection grows and yet this shoe keeps calling out above the others and making itself known.

The Lolita; true it is a classic black pump- but it is so much more. The subtle and simple details (from the ever so slightly ruffled front to the bow and ribbon in the back) make it adorable, flirty, sexy, and a Bombshell Beauty shoe.

Its very cute and perfect for the transition from summer to fall; the peek-a-boo toe is a must as is. It comes in other shades as well, and the brown is quite tempting to me. This is going to be a shoe I will need to purchase a second pair of- in the same color if not multiple pairs in both colors. No matter how many new shoes I find, I cannot keep myself from bringing this one out again and again.

I am loving this shoe- and surprisingly enough, soooo comfortable- honest! That alone is worth it, but I think its cuteness speaks loudly for it.

Vince Camuto Beauty In Shoes

It is pretty well known that my love of shoes is a grand love. I am always looking for something that has that classic yet playful twist that can be worn casually with that touch of sophisticated elegance.

Vince Camuto nearly always performs, and at a lovely price range as well (many at about or just under $150). My first pair from him I purchased years ago, with many raving reviews as I walked about town, and only wished I had purchased two. Everyone always would stop and demand to know where I had found them, and at the time it was quite difficult for me to find as it was.

The collection has grown and can quite commonly be found in most department stores. This particular pair pictured on top is the Veronica in Camel (though it also comes in gray/black). I adore the feeling of a new shoe.

On the right is another from Vince Camuto in a more Oxford Style though it has the playful peekaboo toe. Being sophisticated can still be playful, its not all cold, serious and hum drum.

Though the collection has a vast range, there are definitely a select few signature pieces that stand out and just looking to be known. What’s even more beautiful is the comfortable price tag of such a well designed and expensive looking shoe at a reasonable cost. It isn’t so cheap that you feel you are losing on value of quality, and not so expensive that you feel guilty for rewarding yourself with such a treat.

For The Love Of Shoes

Shoes for all occasions are one thing, but shoes that bring occasions are so much grander and fun. When was the last time you purchased a shoe that motivated you to create an event or occasion? Its may have been too long, and if not- who is to say there are not enough occasions to be made.

Bright and bold with playful and creative heels screamed this spring and summer. Worn correctly I think it could make for an easy progression into the winter. They are quite fun and eventful on their own.

Playful for the perfect cocktail with friends or that special soirée. Finding the outfit may be the tricky part, though whenever in doubt the simple sleek shaped dress (black or otherwise) compliments nicely. No need to be too complicated.

On the more every day side of things, I am liking the Michael Kors Bergen Shoe- its sleek, shiny, and sophisticated with that deadly charm. Its great from day into evening and is as casual or dressy as you wish to make it. Quite a statement piece and without ripping apart the budget. Its a lovely find for anyone.

Booties and Open Toe Shoes are also quite the rage and showing up in more and more places. Clean lined, corset laced, or open toed- not to mention all at once in some cases as seen here. Devilish and sexy it can be the subtle added allure to any outfit. I think we will continue to see these throughout the winter and enjoy including them in our wardrobe.

As a final note, I love to leave with Louboutin and see no reason why not to here. Simply magnifique as always.

The Shoe

My love for Christian Louboutin knows no end; my heart skips a beat at its beautifully crafted shape and flash of the red beneath. This one in particular is a beautiful silver with a light tough of jewels to present an open toe. Open toe is everywhere, especially as it is playful spring. A color like this can go with A N Y T H I N G really, especially with bright colors (for those a bit too timid to reach out to the bright colored shoes to match). It makes a beautifully elegant statement that is simply divine.

And for the twist on the classic black- still classic and refined with a bit of playfulness at the heel is another from my love of Louboutin. The shoe alone remakes any simple cocktail dress one might pair with it. It is a beauty to be admired from all angles. I will allow this one to speak for itself- but do take note as well as inspiration
