A Little Shoe Shopping

I'm heading out in just a bit to find yet another pair of brown and black sandals. Nothing dressy....just something for jeans, shorts, skirts and maxi dresses. Featured below are the styles that I'm leaning toward. The first is Steve Madden's "Gilliee" at Dillards. The second is by Coconuts and is carried by DSW. I love, love, love that shoe! So, off I go, I hope they have my size in both!

"Shining Star"

Alberto Guardiani lands in Cannes

Guardiani celebrates the 64th edition of the Film Festival creating an exclusive pair of sandals.



Shining star: the new sandals created by Alberto Guardiani, dedicated to the best-known actresses of the big screen, are called, precisely, Shining Star and will debut on May 11th on the montée de marches of the Cannes Film Festival 2011.


Black leather wrapped around the instep; a cascade of Swarovski crystals that turn this shoe into an ultra-glamorous and refined accessory, a true shining light that will embellish the feet of the celebs – from Hollywood but not only – that will make the best of themselves along the red carpet and the Croisette.


The sandals, in leather or suede, will be available exclusively at Alberto Guardiani’s boutiques in Rome Roma, Milan and Naples.

Hot Trend: The Flat Form

This is a trend that I whole-heartedly embrace, having "copped" a couple of pair in recent weeks. I chose pairs similar to Madison Harding's (pic. five), and House of Harlow's offerings...both in black. Not only are they comfortable, but they look great, and work well with everything from maxi dresses to shorts. My plan is to snap up as many styles and colors as possible to rotate throughout summer and fall. Today I'll add a pair to my black, cropped, cargo pants, white tee, and cropped denim jacket for a little "Monday chic."

Mixed Elements



This hot number is a design from Rachel Roy ($139). The heel is lucite and the platform is made of wood...works well with gray patent. My problem? I don't think that I could navigate that 5 1/4 heel!

"ALMOST Too Fabulous For Words!"

Oh My God....How beautiful are these shoes! When I first looked at the Roberto Cavalli thigh high boot I was simply amazed....talk about looking fabulous coming and going! I'm also loving the Reed Krakoff shearling sandals....a little something to keep those tootsies warm on those cold nights out on the town. Let's face it, there's nothing like a fabulously chic shoe!

Fabulous Finds!

Last Friday, I stopped by my favorite Marshalls store and happened upon a great clearance sale. I couldn't believe my luck when I picked up each pair to try on and found that they had been marked down to $5! After that, I headed to the second Marshalls hoping to repeat the same, but the racks were pretty sparse. Oh well, I'm still reveling in the fact that I found to pairs of shoes that I absolutely love for such a great price!

"Best Foot Forward"

I'm slowly embracing the idea that the inevitable must come...fall and winter that is. I've been trying to avoid many of the fabulous fall looks, as I wished to remain in a "summer state of mind." Alas, the time has come to share some of my favorite fall items.

I actually haven't heard of designer Guillaume Hinfray, but I love his shoes! The black ankle strap is a particular favorite. I'm also loving Yves Saint Laurent's linen platform and Pour La Victoire's ankle buckle, boot sandal. I can never get enough!
