UGGs Go Pastel for Spring

Filed under: Shoes

UGGsSo, we were pretty much done with UGGs, especially when paired with the little miniskirts. After all, if it's cold enough to necessitate super warm, thick boots, it's too cold to bare your legs to just below the hoo-ha. However, we're finding ourselves strangely drawn to the new UGG Cardy Crochet Boots.

Crocs get ... stylish?

Filed under: Shoes

Dangerous Diva Crocs
Looks like the Crocs haters have finally gotten through to the company that brought the garden clog into mainstream fashion (and, as far as we're concerned, contributed to the downfall of civilization at the same time). Crocs has started a new line, YOU by Crocs, which is designed to appeal to those who are both fashion conscious and in need of a comfortable shoe. But, as we've already mentioned, we're not buying.

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Must Haves


Okay, we know -- we've shown a couple of Jessica Simpson shoes. But you know what? We're okay with that, because these Dafa Wedges? We have them. And we love them. In fact, we're wearing them now!

Rain, rain, come and stay - Fun, affordable footwear for rainy days

Filed under: Shoes

In some parts of the country, it is hurricane season. And while not everyone is experiencing severe weather, many of us are still getting soaked. Rainy days tend to make us want to curl up on the couch with a blanket and the latest issue of Vogue, but, unfortunately, we sometimes are obligated to leave the house.

The right product (and a good umbrella) can keep our hair from frightening small children, and truth be told, we love a fashionable rain coat. However, we tend to get frustrated with the shoe situation. Galoshes just aren't sexy, but we're not willing to ruin our shoes. What's a stylish but sopping wet gal to do?

Fluevog Shoes - Fashionably fun

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Shoes, Green Fashion


We prefer our fashion mixed with a pinch of fun and a dash of humor -- being serious all the time gets so boring. And so, you can imagine how much we enjoy John Fluevog's shoes. If you're not familiar with the brand, check out the website (be sure to read the 'About' page). Go ahead, we'll wait.

Via Spiaga asks Vena Cava to hook-up its footwear

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


Right after the boys of Proenza Schouler and current designer darling Alexander Wang release images of the chic heels from their upcoming footwear lines, another CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund outfit announces its plan to branch out into accessories:

Via Spiaga has tapped Vena Cava to create a mini capsule footwear collection that will debut on the brand's runway at the Chelsea Art Museum in Manhattan on September 6th. The four different styles of shoes that are going to march down Vena Cava's catwalk will compliment the "designers' "Egyptomania" theme for spring, with muted, sun-bleached colors, strappy sandals and pyramid hardware."

We have never purchased a pair of Via Spiaga shoes, but we're confident the collaboration between the footwear company and Vena Cava will be swoon worthy. Especially if there are a pair of gladiator sandals in this collection.

L.L. Bean: Footwear

Filed under: Events: On the Scene, Accessories, Style in the News, Clothing, Shoes, Jeans, Men, Kids and Babies, Style for a Cause, Green Fashion


L.L. Bean is one of those companies that make a bit of everything. However, don't make the assumption that they are a jack of all trades, master of none, instead consider the full phrase which continues, though ofttimes better than master of one. Thanks, Wikipedia!

L.L. Bean is focused on the outdoors. They make everything from kayaks to baby strollers, tents to sporks. Really. They also have a great line of footwear for the whole family that is as stylish as it is functional. Aesthetics are not sacrificed for performance, or vice versa.

For dancin' in the streets.

With due respect to Martha and the Vandellas, summer, more or less, is here, and the time is right to get outside and enjoy it. Dancing is optional, but please watch for oncoming traffic.

Saucony runs in style

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Shoes, Men


We just got back from a run. We went an incredibly short distance in a disgustingly disproportionate amount of time. We might still be running.

Of course, it could have been that time stood still once we made the mistake of choosing our footwear as our focal point. How can we breathe and push with a beige pair of 1997 on our feet? It ain't easy.

Hence our little perusal of the Saucony website. Saucony makes running shoes. They "exist for runners." They offer a line of footwear that is as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional. Comfortable, too.

The "most expensive flip-flops in the world"

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


Attention all suckers for luxury products -- this is the shoe for you. These flip-flops are made with a "patent pending ultra-sports shoe base" and feature "hand-matched crocodile straps for magnificent comfort."

Somehow, this means that they're worth $400 -- a price so high, that it makes these rather unfortunate looking sandals are the "most expensive production flip-flops in the world."
