A simple T-strap sandal transformed into an elegant and pretty heel. Weddings this summer just became that much more simple. This perfect dressy shoes will eliminate one important decision (yes, the shoe is that important) whether it be for a bridesmaid dress or an adoring guest. Metallics are still going strong, especially gold tones. What is great about this gold is that it soft enough to be versatile and complement any dress.

Your shoe wardrobe doesn’t end with a pair of sandals, one pair of black pumps and flats. No.  Once you have your basics it is time to move onto the fun pieces that really help define your style.  This matte muted green sandal will make any outfit spring and summer ready.  Because of its simple style and neutral heel this shoe is not hard to pull off and the color amazingly goes with more than you think.  It’s time to put your black patent leather pumps aside and embrace the color of spring.

If you’re blessed enough not to be in the icy cold and rain, snow, or hail, then it’s definitely OK to still be wearing a peep toe stilletto-like this Nine West Jai pump-in the middle of December.  I unfortunately do not have that luxury, but I hope you do.   I love the tan contrast trimming around the black patent (but not too shiny) leather.  Super flattering and a classic combination never to go out of style.  Also, the Nine West Jai is a pump that looks great at all angles.

Its seasons like this that usually need a great splash of color.  I am guilty of wearing mostly black and gray but I love to mix it up by adding bright colored accessories or shoe into my outfit.  The Nine West ‘Tuffy’ wedge is a perfect way to incoperate color into your warobe.  Because of its sleek and tailored design it is ideal for work, but also when you’re just getting a drink with friends.  I love how they decided to have the buckle going vertical instead of horizontal, it defintely makes the shoe a little bit different.

Penny loafers have made their way onto the fashion scene, this time on a women’s foot.  I am really into the menswear inspired fashion movement.  It has come and gone through out fashion history, but for the women who can pull if off, are not only brave but sexy.  If your not ready to put on your suit and tie, settle for these great pumps.  The cool gray color can be used as an unexpected pop to your wardrobe.

Biviel BV1208 – Flats are a great option for comfort and if you happen to be taller, they can also be dressed up or down.

Nine West Falcoin – satin is always a lovely way to keep things elegant. Go for detail (like the pleating in this Falcoin) and bright colors to also add your own flavor.

Charles by Charles David – Tyrst: stylish and traditional. Subtle lizard prints like this Tyrst sandal is great and the twist makes the show modern.

Nina Vikki – great for a wedding that goes into the evening because of the color, while still keeping your feet cool in the summer.

Bridesmaid shoe tips: you don’t have to be “matchy matchy” with your dress. Contrasting colors will go great with the popular single tone bold colors that are being used for many dresses today. Look for comfort as well. Only wear a shoe with a heel height, and constructed in a way, that you know you will be comfortable in the entire day- no matter how fabulous the shoe is. Comfort is key, you don’t want to be wincing in pictures. You can mix things up with different colors, prints, materials and straps. Also, it doesn’t hurt to suggest having all the bridesmaid’s getting the same shoe in a variety of colors. Makes for nicer pictures, and we all know how important pictures are.

Sara was feeling a bit too inactive so she wanted to say “Hello” with her Coloriffics sandal. And so, I’m also saying..”hello again” with this Nine West ‘Jojus’ pump. Yes, the ‘Jojus’ pump, definitely seems a bit wild and crazy for a Mother – especially when I mentioned in my earlier post that I wanted to keep things age-appropriate. But Mothers, trust me on this and don’t write-off these shoes quite yet. This shoe is for the super trendy fashionista in all of you willing to wear a 3” heel. The tan and blue in the Jojus tone the shoe down (hence age-appropriate), while the other colors keep things lively and make it so that it will match with any color outfit. In all honesty, I’m not normally the biggest fan of army fatigue type prints. However, it works for this shoe to integrate all the colors together, because you don’t really notice it unless you’re holding the shoe up close to you face or critiquing it like I did. I also really like the soft fabric of the shoe’s interlocking open strap at the top. It nicely complements the party of colors and adds to the comfort of the shoe. The Jojus won’t work with the very formal wedding outfits, but it will definitely complete an outfit for a more casual wedding. Try it out, I dare ya.
