HOT DEAL: Save 20% on $100 orders of select styles @ Endless. Enter promo code “FRIENDS2” at checkout. Offer expires 05/17.

So isn’t it quite obvious why I chose these DV by Dolce Vita patent-leather platform pumps as today’s Heel of the Day? Because they look so darn good! And because they remind me of Brian Atwood’s super coveted “Maniac” pump and the pink patent version with the gold bow on the vamp gives off an Alexander McQueen vibe. Also on the plus side: they’re real leather and cost a little under $100 (less if you make use of the promo code above) which is quite a helper when you’re a shoe fanatic on a budget. What do you think?

Shoe of the Day – Topshop APRIL Nubuck Chelsea Boots

Irina — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:00:04 +0000

Alright, I know I already proclaimed my love for a pair of Topshop Chelsea boots just recently, but now that I’ve seen APRIL I know what true (shoe) love is. And yes, it has been decided that these are going to be my next shoe purchase. Yay! But since I already blew my shopping budget this month, I’m going to have to wait until next month’s payday before I can bring them home. The black version it will be because I have rather short legs and wear a lot of black tights during the colder seasons, so it’s the most practical choice for me. The cognac colored pair however is almost just as heavenly. Wish I could buy them both!

Shoe of the Day – Topshop ACE Pointed Chelsea Boots

Irina — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:00:22 +0000

Now that Spring is upon us I know I should be writing and obsessing over cute bright summer sandals and stuff, but instead I am having a major ankle boot moment. For example, I’ve been hunting for a pair of low to flat heeled Chelsea boots in black for what feels like forever, but couldn’t find anything I really, really liked back then during the Fall and Winter. Well, now these Topshop boots came along and what can I say? I’m in love. They’re exactly what I wanted. Simple, stylish and not too expensive. A great pair of shoes for casual outfits which’d look great with leggings, tights or skinny jeans. I am now debating whether or not to buy them right now or wait for a sale as soon enough it will be too hot to wear them. Tough decision, people! Any recommendations?

As much as I love showing you avantgarde heels, sometimes you gotta go back to the roots – I just love how dressy and beautiful these classic red peep-toe pumps by Joan & David are! And that cute bow on the vamp? Kills it for me. Instant solemates! Too bad the price tag won’t let me find my way to my beautiful red solemate. Le sigh! But that’s what sales are for, right?

Heel of the Day – Schutz Chelsea Two-Tone Sandals

Irina — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 19:00:29 +0000

So how lovely are these two-tone sandals by Schutz? I’m absolutely smitten with the simplicity of the shape, the contrast between the cream and black panels and the sexy cut-outs. I can see them work with both casual clothes like jeans and a simple tee or dressed up with an LBD and a standout clutch.

Heel of the Day – Topshop LOTTIE Suede Strappy Sandals

Irina — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 21:00:58 +0000

So I really, really want a pair of bright yellow strappy sandals for Spring/Summer. As a matter of fact I actually already own a pair of yellow strappy sandals, but those are rather cool and edgy than cute, so I’m thinking about getting these yellow suede beauties by Topshop to further broaden my wardrobe outfit options for the warmer seasons. And while we’re at it: how beautiful is the light blue version of these heels? Love, love, love!

Heel of the Day – B Brian Atwood Fontanne Platform Pumps

Irina — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 18:00:28 +0000

There’s been quite a buzz around Brian Atwood’s diffusion line B Brian Atwood which features shoe styles half the price of his signature line. Most of the shoes are around the $300-350 mark which, unfortunately, is still a bit out of reach for me, but I might get lucky to get my BA shoe fix when those B Brian Atwood styles go on sale/clearance. Which, again unfortunately, sure won’t happen with these mixed metal platform pumps. Aren’t they just absolutely gorgeous? The shape is close to perfect and the metallic colors in this case complement each other rather than clashing with each other. Instant shoe love!
