Shoes, Glorious Shoes...

It is a well documented fact that I have a severe weakness for shoes. There are few things in life that make my heart go pitter-patter like a beautiful pair of pumps. Lately, I have been in buying mode. Here are few of my latest purchases...

While down in Florida on the Sea Camp field trip, I had the opportunity to stop into a Target. While there, I picked up three pairs of shoes. The first pair are brown leather slip-ons with a cute buckle detail. The second pair are brown suede, with a wedge heel. The third pair are brown clogs, with teal embroidery and beading and another nifty buckle.


The Shoe Company (a Canadian shoe retailer that have bricks & mortar locations and online shopping) had a clearance sale on for the last few weeks and I was compelled to add a few pairs to my collection. Behold my new acquisitions:


The first pair are black leather with studs and a low heel - comfortable, yet stylish for work. The second pair are brown leather and they have a vintage flair to them - at first I didn't like these, but now I am smitten with them. The third pair are a mix of plain and snakeskin brown leather, with stud details. The fourth pair are have the most adorable studded straps done all in brown suede. The fifth and sixth pair are the same shoe, both with black lace over black satin and taupe satin, respectively - they were so comfortable I couldn't resist getting them both. I also bought a pair of black patent leather strappy dress shoes, but I can't find an image of them.

You'd think that this would sate my appetite for shoes, but alas, I am still looking for a great pair of red shoes - so, the hunt continues.

Hmm . . I like most of those, especially the brown wedges and the last two pair!

You managed to beat me to it, but I'm on the hunt for red shoes, too, for American Beauty. They must either be pumps or ankle straps, and have pointy toes - that 50's sort of look.

I've been on the hunt for red shoes too. I ordered 2 pairs from Zappos this week and can't wait for them to get here. I've become a Zappos addict.
