Alejandro Ingelmo

UPDATE: This post has been updated on January 10, 2012. Scroll down to see the new add.

OK, I’m just gonna say it: these are some badass boots! Oh boy, I bet wearing these Thriller booties by Alejandro Ingelmo makes one feel like such a naughty girl. A suede bootie bondaged by leather straps and a good 5 inches definitely makes these boots made for walking all over “him” and/or out the door. A number of naughty girls obviously felt the same way because they’re sold out! Oh well… I love the boot, just not too thrilled about the $800 price. That’s why it’s totally OK to steal the pair below – who’s the bad girl now?

Dollhouse “Vivianne” Ankle Boots

As a kid I loved a pretty dollhouse. Filled with miniature furniture and childhood fantasies. That’s why I’m so excited to add these Dollhouse “Vivianne” ankle boots to my shoe closet. A virtual copy of the Thrillers above! And in my fantasy filled world I can pretend they’re the real thing, but in reality I paid a lot less – only $33! Choose from black/black or black/leopard.

Real vs. Steal – Alejandro Ingelmo Matinee Sandals

by Velicia Hill on September 21, 2011

This heel (almost) puts me in the mood for some groovy disco dancing, a polyester jumpsuit and a long night out on the town. Why? Bronze was so hot during the 70′s. But unfortunately, mixed with this (play it safe) nude/camel color, throws the whole thing off… as well as my mood! This is one matinee (shoe) show by Alejandro Ingelmo, I’ll pass on. I would’ve loved to have seen this beautiful bronze leather mixed with red or black and a higher heel. Nevertheless, if this suits your taste and budget it’s available for $316. I’ll definitely pass for the aforementioned reasons as well as the price. But we found a steal that I’m really digging. Ssshhh… don’t tell anyone, it’s so cute, it should’ve been the real instead of the steal.

bebe “Kendall” Metallic Leather Crisscross Sandals

Is that my mood lamp or am I just so damn happy to see this Kendall heel by bebe? Do you agree? I think it’s so much more modern and edgy with the pencil thin 5 inch heel, the nude & silver are working harmoniously and the best part? It’s only $159 & available in black, too… groovy baby! :-)

OK, I simply cannot help myself; I must say it (well, actually sing it in my head): “… ’cause this is thriller, thriller night…” – Thanks for indulging me & singing along as well – I know you did; it’ll be our lil’ secret. Unfortunately these Thriller sandals by Alejandro Ingelmo cannot stay between us; I simply must share the beauty of this snakeskin platform, criss-cossing, multi strap, gladiator bootie, yet sandal – whew! A mouthful. But even better news is that the suggested retail price is around $875, but we found it at Endless on sale for only $453. And if that’s too tall for your short money supply, we found a steal that’s sure to thrill.

Thanks to the folks at bebe for giving us “Adrianna”. Yes, it’s missing the snake, but you do get your choice of 3 leather colors: pewter, black or burgundy for only $159!
