Vivienne Westwood - Shoes…

“if I were a rich girl… I’d clean out Vivienne Westwood in my Galiano gown” so go the words to a Gwen Stephani song, which samples Fiddler on the Roof.  Regardless, it stuck in my head and lead me to go here.  Check out the shoes, and on this page, the clothes.

Vintage Shoes, Naturalizer Shoes - $6.95?

I was in a restaurant today, you know - one of those that has all the vintage ads, old stuff hanging on the walls.  I always preoccupy myself with reading old advertisements, besides the prices don’t even make sense!

At any rate, check out what $6.95 bought in 1945 - here.  Day In - Night out pumps? Now, that’s a concept.  Ladies Home Journal, and these versatile heels?  Try a cool $11.99.  

Bargin Hunters, GOOD News…

One site I love is About.com, particularly Desiree Stimpert’s column on shoes.  In this article, she discusses whether or not expensive shoes are actually worth the money.  To read more go here… and then take a look at some great bargains like these cute shoes from Payless.  Saving money is never a bad thing….especially now at Christmas!

   

These Boots Are Made for Walking?

During my search for the perfect shoes, I noticed that Jessica Simpson has a line of shoes.  So, tell me…are these made for walking??

I liked a lot of her styles including these. For a great deal, order from Shoes.com where it’s CyberMonday and they are offering extra discounts.

Ready, Set, Shop!

It’s time!  Thanksgiving is over, and we are officially in the “Christmas season”.  If you are like me, that means shopping for nieces, nephews, the cats and everyone in between!

 Check out these great shoes that will keep your feet happy if the lines and rude salespeople make the rest of you grumpy.  They have a massage feature and will look great with jeans!

Friday Fling???

HMMM, I am not sure about these.  The cat is kind of cool, but the “bling” running up the heel?  Not too sure about that one…

Any one?  Yeah or Nay??

To see more of this shoe and some others ….go here

Bag, Borrow or Steal… Shoes?

I have written about the wonderful site, Bag Borrow or Steal… great idea for those of us that love our bags and shoes.  I mean, I don’t know about you but I am truly a rich woman trapped in a poor woman’s body -  but shoes??

Would you Bag Borrow or Steal shoes? I just don’t know if I could!  But it’s a cool idea in some twisted way, you know if you could just “borrow” those fabulous shoes that don’t fit the budget. Anyway, for me to even give it more than a three second thought, it would have to be something like these….$1,700 for these gold croc Pradas or these great “bow” boots from Mui Mui for $995. 

             

Before the Holidays…

A cautionary “don’t”,  just like we hate to see Christmas celebrated at Halloween - I mean COME ON, I saw Christmas decorations across the isle from Halloween decorations in one store! 

Wearing Mary Janes with ankle straps and rounded toes are a definate DON’T unless one has legs for days… (and if you are like me, you don’t) then check out these….

These Manolo Blahnik Mary Janes are a definate do!

And We’re Back…

I apologize for taking so long to get this up and changed… I didn’t realize my real life had taken such a turn.  So, please feel free to leave me comments and let me know if you like the changes, hate the shoes I pick, or love it… hopefully you will love it!
