Luichiny ‘Gal Lop’ Dress Sandal

Luichiny-Gal Lop-Sandal

I go weak in the knees for these satin beauties. The organic pleating along the straps and pretty bow in the back have me wanting these just because. They have a subtle zipper in the back, but they are barely noticeable because your eye is automatically drawn to the double petal bow.

Because these heels come in 8 vibrant colors, they are perfect for bridesmaid shoes! Just make sure they don’t steal the show away from the bride.

Alexander McQueen ‘242387WA0Q0′ Peep Toe

Alexander McQueen '242387WA0Q0' Peep Toe

Even after his untimely passing Alexander McQueen’s outrageous and innovative style will live on. This understated bandage shoe is all about being in control with a chic edginess. The peachy-orange zipper down the middle gives this nude heel a burst of color with a fun twist. Even as you walk, onlookers from behind will get a glance of the same bright color underneath the sole. However, keeping true to designer duds this heel doesn’t come cheap. I have a rule: When a shoe’s name consists of numbers and letters that don’t form a word, it’s out of my price range. Still holds true, but doesn’t make me want them any less.

L.A.M.B ‘Vail’ Platform

LAMB-Vail-Platform

With my recent obsession over Native American inspired prints and tribals, it almost hurts that I can’t have this platform. Even despite the fact there will always be a looming fear that I won’t be able to walk properly in these 4.5” heels. Something about the matte red and black diamond shapes with a surprise cut-out draws me in. Not only does Gwen create a show-stopping silhouette and print, she adds the woven platform! Ah, genius in my book.

RSVP ‘Maison’ Peep Toe

RSVP-Maison-Peep Toe

My sister is getting married and it has now given me another excuse to hunt for shoes (like I needed one). Searching for the perfect bridesmaid dresses is already a headache, but then you have to think about jewelry and shoes too! Thankfully I love doing both. However, shoes is obviously the most enjoyable. The RSVP ‘Maison’ Peep toe is super flattering and just just enough design to set it apart without overwhelming anything. I like how it’s not the typical strappy special occasion shoe that you will most likely never wear again. The platform adds a chic edge and makes your legs look amazing (always important). So you’re welcome future bridesmaids. I just found you the perfect shoe.

Jessica Simpson ‘Ikina’ Peep toe Pump

Jessica Simpson 'Ikina' Pump

Every girl has to have a “Plan B”. In Jessica Simpson’s case, her Plan B worked to her advantage. I will say, I am not a huge fan of these loafer pumps, however I commend the effort and appreciate the design. The patent leather is a great way to make it modern and hidden platforms could not be more popular. With the right outfit they can look really hot, sort of hits that sexy secretary niche in a huge way. So, hey Jess, I know your country music career went sour, but there is a future for you in fashion (apparently), which means there is always a reality show on the horizon.

Steve Madden ‘Lenorah’ Sandal

It’s weird how sometimes vintage is somewhat ‘fashion forward’ and a new idea.  P.Diddy, Puff Dady, or simply ‘Puff’ (whatever the kids are calling him these days) knows this idea better than anyone.  He loves to recycle old songs and make them into his on thing, I’m not judging… I mean it seems to be working. The same goes for fashion, like these ‘Lenorah’ sandals. The whole vintage-new thing was sort of an observation, however I do think these are adorable and in the summer will be irresistibly charming with a summer dress.

Rock & Republic ‘Adina’ Pump

Nude is almost on the same level as black, especially when it’s on a shoe like this.  Rock & Republic is expanding on their brand and I must say, if this is what they will be doing I’d like to see more.  Although this silhouette has been done before, they played with the platform with the slight variation in tones and texture.  Even the little reptile pattern in between the heel and front strap make a difference.  Not only are getting some serious height but you are getting some seriously sexy shoes (without being hoochie).
