All that Glitters

First let me start by apologizing for being M.I.A. for the past couple of days. My posts may be sporadic over the next couple of weeks. This is the busiest time of year for me at work. Now on to more important things. SHOES!!! I was browsing around heels.com this evening, came across these, and just HAD to feature them.

Sonnet Heel, Max Studio

Oh... I simply adore this shoe. T-straps always leave me twitterpated and the Sonnet heel by Max Studio is certainly no exception. My, oh my, the detailing on that "t" is delightful. A loopy twist on fringe in a shimmering, glittering gold hue. Delicate straps plus a delicate stiletto heel. Personally, I would not save these only for special occasions. I would wear these to dress up my casual summer dresses. Add a clutch and some simple jewelry and you'll be ready for a night out on the town.

Max Studio - Renato

Renato - Max Studio

These have such fun elements. Gladiator style in an ultra glam and girly color. Hot pink platform + a cone shaped heel. Speaking of heels, how about adding 4 fabulous inches to your frame? Sigh. I think I will always wear/covet heels. No matter how old and crotchety I may get. Heels make me happy!

You Make Me Feel Like Dancin...

Ah, what girl doesn't need some dancing shoes? Now I'm not talking ballet, tap, or jazz shoes. I'm talking night out on the town, holiday party, New Year's Eve dance type of dancing shoes. The kinds of shoes with touches of satin or sparkle. Totally glam and totally hot and totally impractical. But go ahead live it up a little. Wear them with your dark denim and a flirty top or pair them with a pair of opaque tights and wear them to work with a structured skirt and shirt or better yet wear them dancin!

Max Studio - Salsa Heel

Anyone up for some Salsa dancing? (That was too easy.) Seriously though, I really love these. The shape and the sweet gathered and beaded detail on the t-strap. Paint your toes red and then paint the town. Yes, please!

Oh Deer - Gelato Heel

It's the shape here that really gets me. It sends my heart all a flutter. Don't laugh but I LOVE the cotton candy hue. If the pink is a little much they also come in gold but if you really want to stand out - I vote pink. Do they make you as giddy as they make me?

Guess - Nisadora

Wow there are a ton of girly elements in this pretty little peep toe. That multi-colored satin, the ruching around the toe. All adorned with a perfect flower. I love the femininity and I love the colors. These are my top pick.

Nora Heel - Betsey Johnson

Put a little sass in your step with this hot pair of heels by Betsey Johnson. Glitter and glide your way onto the center of the dance floor and you're bound to capture everyone's attention. Let's hope you brushed up on your moves.
