Switch your shoe without changing your sole - Switchflops

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


While some of us are fortunate enough to live in a sunny climate, where we can wear sandals year round, many of us are pulling out coats and boots. However, even if you're gearing up for snow, we hope you have plans to travel someplace sunny and warm. And if so, we have the shoe for you.

Switchflops are the kind of invention we can't believe we didn't come up with first. There are several shoe styles to choose from (flats or wedges, or a kitten heel here, in three colors), but it's the variety of straps that make this shoe so interesting.

Christina Hendricks' foot at the Emmys - StyleFoul!

Filed under: Celebrity Fashion Mistakes, Red Carpet Trends



We love Christina Hendricks, in all of her sexy babiliciousness and glory. Watching her strut across the offices of Sterling Cooper makes us want to rush out for some hardcore vintage shopping and a box of red hair dye.

Worst fashion faux pas of the summer

Filed under: Handbags, Accessories, Clothing, Shoes


A recent British survey asked people what they thought the worst fashion faux pas of the summer was, and the number one response was "socks with sandals." We agree -- it's a bad, bad look -- but there were plenty of other fashion tragedies this summer.

As summer comes to an end, we'd like to take a moment to find out what you think was the worst trend/tragedy of the season for men or women. Was it something people took great pains to do, or was it something that was more of a mistake?

Shoes of the day - Loupe by Kate Spade

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Must Haves


Oooh, these sandals are the perfect party shoe! Can't you just imagine dancing away while perched atop these delicate gold-toned heels? We can! And we love them in pink because it brings out the softness of the fabric - they look deceptively comfortable, but are definitely meant for dress-up nights.

You'd wear these at a formal event, of course - but we think these would also look amazing peeking from underneath black pants or dark wash jeans when paired with a dressy top.

(They also come in black, if pink isn't your thing.)

Shoes of the day: Eva by Shoes For Lovely People

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Must Haves


This snakeskin flat in teal is an easy choice for summer - while the style is simple the color and texture is fun and will make your outfit pop. There's something very "greek isles" about this shoe, maybe it's the interlocking pattern (more views after the jump) that reminds us of the traditional greek key pattern, or the blue leather...or maybe it's just the fact that we wish we were vacationing in Greece. Whatever the reason, this shoe works!

We especially like the metallic trim; it's a detail not usually seen on a daytime shoe, but one that works beautifully with the teal color.

Yoga sandals - Om, my goodness

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


While we don't condone the wearing of flip-flops all the time, we definitely understand that there are times when nothing else will do. Going for a pedicure is certainly one of those times, as is hitting the beach, or heading to the gym to do some barefoot yoga. Those toes want to be free, and a stylish open-toe wedge just isn't going to cut it.

Socks+sandals: Alexander McQueen pairs the unthinkable

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Shoes


(Click on the photo for more shocking and ridiculous runway fashion)

Our world is officially rocked. If men are pulling off pantyhose (or mantyhose) these days, then it's hard to really fault someone for pairing sock with sandals (if you can call them sandals) -- especially when it actually looks good. Not wear it out in public good, mind you, but good in that 'wow that doesn't even really look offensive' kind of way. Actually, we think they look like some sort of couture bowling shoes.

Cat Deeley's sexy stilettos

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Shoes, Celebrities with Style, Daily Obsession


On Thursday night's So You Think You Can Dance, we had just one thought on our mind. No, not which couple would be eliminated (I think we all saw the writing on the wall for Comfort and Thayne LAST week), our focus was squarely on the lovely Cat Deeley and her fabulous shoes.

Let's talk about the shoes, which the images we grabbed from our TiVo just can't do justice. They are fantastic. They are stiletto Jimmy Choo sandals in black with gold (we think) accents. We could not find the exact shoe on Jimmy Choo's website, but this style and this style are similar.

We're in love.

Buy cool sandals for charity

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


While Kate Moss is outfitting her fans in cool graphic tees for a charitable organization, three prominent makeup artists are on a mission to hook-up your footwear collection for an equally important cause.

Trish McEvoy, Laura Mercier, and Bobbi Brown have each created fun limited-edition Havaianas flip-flops for just $15 with any 2 cosmetic or fragrance purchases.

Flip-flops may give you cancer

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Shoes, Celebrities with Style


Earlier this week we learned that flip-flops could mess up your feet, and today comes another attack on the summer-friendly footwear: it might cause cancer.

The news, while shocking at first, is really more straightforward that you might think. The outcry over open-toed sandals has less to with some mysterious connection between rubber, leather and sensitive skin, and more to do with that skin's increased exposure to the sun. Especially now that flip-flops -- once a common target of snakry style critics' disdain -- are becoming acceptable among celebs and the fashion elite, doctors are concerned that they'll see an increased number of foot cancer cases (and in fact, some doctors report that they already are).

Flip flops could mess up your feet

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


Yes! The sun is shining brightly, the temperatures are slowly rising, and those dark wash mini shorts that you've had buried in your closets all winter are finally going to see the light of day.

But before you go get another reverse French pedicure and slide that favorite pair of Havaianas flip flops on your feet, you may want to heed this warning.

Hot celebrity trend: White Grecian dresses

Filed under: Celebrities with Style


You know what they say, two's a trend -- or is it three? Oh well, does it really matter with a look this hot? We've been seeing a lot of white for this summer, which is normal for the season. But, the fab way to wear the color of angels seems to be in Grecian inspired dresses.

Dread mandal season is here

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Men


Happy summer! Finally the sandal season we've been talking about is here. We were so excited until Stylist reminded us that sandals are equal opportunity footwear. Yes, we're talking about Mandals.

We have mixed emotions about Mandals. Well, not exactly mixed, more like pure horror and apprehension.

Men aren't what you'd call "active" when it comes to foot care. Ragged, discolored toe nails, broad, hairy feet, oddly fish-like toes that haven't seen the sun since forever...there is much to fear when it comes to men and strappy shoes.

What's the solution? Do we want men jockeying for the next spa chair at the nail salon? Or should they just cover up those glass cutters like nature and Doc Marten intended? Why do so many celebs seem interested in wearing mandals?

Should men wear Mandals?

Why aren't you wearing this? Turquoise sandals with beads

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Must Haves


What's not to love about a bright pair of funky, beaded sandals? They can liven up a boring jeans and tee outfit, they'd be great with a sweet little sundress, and they're a fabulous choice to wear to the beach or pool!

We're kind of partial to these Amrita Singh Turquoise Sandals with Beads, $66 at Chickdowntown. Turquoise is a gorgeous color for summer, but we really like the colored beads -- they add a lot of interest and will only bring more attention to the gorgeous pedicure we're sure to have!

The $50 flip flop near miss

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes


As we mentioned in an earlier post, this weekend we had a blister emergency. After a false start, Band Aids saved the day, but we still wandered into Banana Republic, like a zombie, to see if they had inexpensive backless sandals we could buy and wear out of the store.

We're shaking our heads at ourselves, even writing that.

Oh, please, admit you've done the same thing, possibly more than once. It's slightly less reprehensible when you buy the $4 red checkered material flip flops at Walgreens, but it's the same behavior. Blowing cash on an impulse buy is practically a national pass-time.
