The way your eyes look into me.

What are you doing to me, Jeffrey Campbell? I should just buy stock in this company. I should be able to earn frequent-buyer and/or frequent-admirer points toward free shoes. Right?

Anyway, here are some picks for the next Jeffrey Campbell shoes I will become obsessed with:

These are the Rally Wedges in black suede. Look at how tall and how glittery. Can you imagine? I could totally rock these... $198.

These are the beige floral Swansong wedges. I don't even like sandals, and I really don't like open-toed shoes. But these seem so perfect for spring/summer frolicking. I think I'd just like anything if it's got a high enough platform. $112.

And these are the 99 Tie Glitter wedges in red glitter! This style has been around for a while. I actually posted about the 99 Zip wedges a long time ago. But now they come in silver, pewter, red and multi glitter. And I may own a fair amount of glittery shoes, but I don't own any that are red. $139.95.

Gravity don't mean too much to me.

You have to see this.

I've been hearing a lot about Jeffrey Campbell's Lita platforms, but I didn't particularly care for them... Until now.

They come in silver, pewter and multi-colored glitter.

Well, they're $160 and they're all sold out. But, whoa. Maybe someday.

You can't begin to feel.

I started following Karla's Closet a while ago because I saw her post some really neat shoes. Here is her picture:

They are the Yves Saint Laurent criss-cross strap pumps:


However, I was resigned to admire them from afar until last night when I spotted the Parker Wedge on Alloy's website.


While they're missing the criss-cross strap (which is obviously a selling point for the YSL pumps), they do have that cool heel that attracted me to them. And they come in forest green! For only $32.90, I'd say it's a fair trade.

So manically depressed and manically dressed.

I have lots of posting to catch up on, but in the meantime, I thought I'd post some shoe inspiration. Here are some shoes that I love because they are covered in glitter and/or excessive amounts of dangly things.

These are Prada's spring 2010 "chandelier sandals," which look like something I would have really enjoyed walking around in when I was little. Actually, I'd still really enjoy walking around in them.

I can't identify these shoes, unfortunately, but I love them and I want them. Desperately. Although something tells me that I might be able to buy plain heels and a bunch of shiny decals to turn this into a DIY project.

Out of place.

Back in January, I was really into those Acne wedges and all shoes that vaguely resembled them, if you can recall. Now, I have developed a new shoe interest that keeps me up at night.

It all started with the Balenciaga harness boots:


In my humble opinion, I don't actually think that these are too terribly attractive. Which is convenient for me because there is no way in hell that I could afford to buy them. But there's something about this concept that intrigues me.



Next, we encounter the Sam Edelman knock-offs, Zoe. These are sold for around $300+ (although I did find some on eBay that I bid about $25 on because I'm a ridiculous optimist, but I lost that auction, naturally). What I dislike about these is how low the segment between the heel and the rest of the shoe is, for some reason.


These are Lucyd Acyd's Witchery Buckle Boots. They cost a little over $70 and certainly are appropriately platformed, but I am just not thoroughly sold on the weird faux pony hair.

Finally, these are the ones that I really want! They were being sold by this online shop-community called Vestiges for around $50. However, by the time I decided that I couldn't live without them, they were sold out of the really high ones, so... what's the point? And, usually, when I could find these shoes for sale, the largest size they carried was an 8, so it is unfortunate to be me.

Well, nonetheless, these are the shoes that I currently am on the lookout for, so I'm hoping that the perfect ones come along one of these days.

Don't love nobody, it's not worthwhile.

So, my friend Jen and I were talking, and we've decided that we're going to bring back spats. I have had the desire to bring back spats for years because I'm a big Some Like It Hot fan, which makes me want to become a 1920s gangster.

This movie is fantastic and I highly recommend it for numerous reasons. I've included these pictures to help illustrate how fantastic it is! In the last set, you'll see the antagonists of the movie, including Spats Colombo and his spats. He is very thoroughly badass, and a valid reason to think spats are awesome.

Luckily, spats are sold on Etsy, and here are some that I think are cool:

Step inside the party, disrupt the whole scene.



I have been thinking about these ModCloth shoes for an excessively long period of time. They're called "Science Fiction Booties," which is probably what made me curious in the first place. Initially, I wasn't sure if I thought they were attractive or not, but then I read the description:
You'll be 'queen' of the style universe when you bring these astronomically amazing booties into your life! Their rich caramel and crimson dual toned, geometrically shaped leather upper will protect your feet from unwanted invaders from the planet Earth, while a brightly printed sole, and stylishly soft pink velvet interior put these ankle boots light years ahead of their time! Highlight your intergalactic gams with a pair of sparkling tights and a mod mini dress, and you'll be fighting bad fashion, one step at a time.
Yes, now I am with you.

Hitches in the plan:
1. They are $99.99, although marked down from $147.99, so, there's that.
2. They are sold out of my size! So, there, I don't even have a choice.

Sure are dreamy, though.
