Lust-Worthy Thursday???

Ahem. Let me start out by saying the only reason I didn't post about these bad boys yesterday is because I didn't know of their existence until today. But thanks to my cyber friend(I hope I'm not being too presumptuous.) Diabolina and the fact that I'm addicted to her blog I was introduced to them. Yeah so um thanks. Thanks for getting me to lust after yet ah-noth-er pair of shoes. And somehow I knew... I just knew I would find them on net-a-porter. Man, I'm such a slave to fashion.

Marni Suede Platform Slingback

Ughs. BA-NA-NAS! These are absolutely stunning. The combo of black and purple suede (Although from the picture the suede looks gray to me, maybe it's my 30 something eyes.) is so delicious. I love the cone shaped wooden heel and the shape. This is certainly not a shoe for the feint of heart. It's bold. It's hot. It's sexy. Anyone wanna buy me a pair? I can be bold. I can be hot. I can be sexy.

Prada Spring 09

This is a continuation of Monday's post. Since there were quite a few pairs from the Spring collection that caught my eye I thought I'd split up the love throughout the week. Nice, huh?

Crisscross Platform

Oh that platform is killing me. I love it so much. Python meets brown leather in this pretty as a picture sandal by Prada. A delicate crisscross strap connected by a gold stud adorns the top of your foot. Move a little further down and that pattern in repeated in the straps intersecting just before your toes begin. These details are so simple yet so perfect. Delicious.

Satin and Leather Platform

Alright so I'm fairly certain I've made it clear just how much I love that platform so I won't mention it again. Instead I'll talk about the petal soft satin straps. I love the wrinkled and what looks like a bit of bleaching detail. Then add not a 5 inch but a 5.5 inch heel. Holy heel, batman!

Sodoku Sandal - Chinese Laundry

I really really love this sandal by Chinese Laundry. I certainly don't own anything like it. I just can't decide which color I want. Of course for the price I could just get both but I am not the type of girl to own the same shoe in several different colors. I have never been interested in that. That is not the case for my mom and I'm sure many of you out there. But it's just this weird, silly quirk I have. So I'm going to leave the decision up to you all. Which color do you prefer?

Sodoku Sandal

The sodoku sandal has such a unique vibe. I love that there is the tiniest hint of a wedge. Hey, a little height can go a long way. Am I right? The shape is chic but the ribbon tie adds just the right touch of girlie appeal. You're sure to put your best fashion foot forward when you step out in these.

Prada Spring 09

I received an email from Saks Fifth Avenue the other day touting the new Prada Spring 09 collection. Naturally, I had to check it out. I found quite a few pairs that tickled my fancy. I am loving the simplicity of the collection. Gorgeous shoes with a few key details that make them anything but ordinary.

Platform Slingbacks

Stunning. I absolutely adore this slingback pump. The contrasting tobacco and camel hued leather. The cap toe. The stitching and the knotted cross strap all set atop that five tiered stitched platform that brings the aesthetics of this shoe up to a whole new level. This shoe is bound to be an instant classic.

Knotted Sandals

More knotted leather and stitching. I'm sensing a theme and loving it. A wonderful more summery version of the slingback pump this sandal is equally as stunning. It's so simple yet oozes with elegance and rich details. You would never guess that the heel is 5 inches just by looking at it. Never fear though. That smidge of platform will make these a little easier to walk in.

Check out this Frugal Friday deal!

Spring into Steve Madden

I was browsing the merch at stevemadden.com as I am apt to do and spotted a couple of finds that tickled my fancy. Naturally I had to feature them here. I mean, this is a shoe blog after all.

Adorabl

Well. Adorable, indeed. Or do I mean adorabl? You know I heart that Steve Madden and his love of adding extra letters and leaving off letters for his shoe style names. He's so silly and clever like that. I have been looking for a pair of gold flat sandals. Not hardcore looking but looking nonetheless. A peek here, a peek there in the sale shoe aisles. Searching quietly but not quite finding the perfect pair. Well my search can end. This sandal by Steve Madden is perfect. From the sling back strap, to the shimmering gold, to the sweet ruffle trickling from the ankle to the tops of your toes. Love.

Myrah

Cognac leather, gladiator styling, and studs. Need I say more? Oh yes. There's also the platform and 4.5 inch heel. Oh yeah!

The Look for Less

When I first spied the images from the Spring 09 Louis Vuitton runway show I was fit to be tied. I knew there was no way I could afford that shoe that we saw over and over again. But that certainly didn't stop me from wishing, and hoping, and praying. I absolutely adored the mish mash of details. The mix of textures, and prints, and embellishments from feathers, to stones, to jewels somehow managed to just work rather than look over the top.




Alas, I thought this would be a shoe I would have to simply admire from afar but thanks to the lovely folks over at Bebe I can now have a pair of my very own. Well at least a very similar version and that is a. o.k. by me. Check it out!

Katrin Leather Exotic Sandal

OMG! I was so excited when I saw these. Bebe does an amazing job here and the price is just right. I mean these have all of the right elements for a fraction of the price. The platform is perfection. The studs, the jewel, the turquoise beads, the feather... ugh! They will be mine. Oh yes. They will be mine. Hahahahahaha (that is the sound of maniacal laughter you hear). Seriously folks. This is one hot shoe. I can't wait to get them.
