Tuesday Shoesday: Ugly or Cute?

In my many shopping exploits, there have been a few instances where I have fallen in love with a pair of shoes I once thought were repulsive. The color was off, the design was all wacky and I just was NOT going to throw them into my “must try on” pile.

But then, after I return to the shoe department to put back those glittery silver stripper heels (because really, when would I wear them?) I see those infamous shoes again and have a completely different reaction. Maybe it’s because I’m delerious at this point from trying on dress after dress, shoe after shoe, and my mind is fooling me. Or I’m just seeing them with a whole new set of eyes.

That, my friends, is how I feel about these Chinese Laundry pumps I found on DSW. At first, I was like “omg, these are hideous who would wear them!” Then, at second glance, I was like “well, actually, these are pretty cute. They’d be super cute with a white sundress!” So, I beg the question friends, fans and readers, what are your thoughts? Ugly or cute?

Honestly, I think they are a really fun, cute, end of summer wedge. I woud pair them with a coral, white or champage colored dress with some simple jewelry. I could see myself getting some use out of them around Labor Day! So, I’m eager, though, what are ya’lls thoughts?

Tuesday Shoesday: A Little Sparkle and Pizzazz

Happy Shoesday friends!! Let me just tell you, it has NOT been easy to find affordable blue wedding shoes. I’ve searched everywhere.  I’ve actually stopped searching in the desperate hopes that I’ll wake up one morning and a perfect pair will be waiting on my doorstep, with a note. “Found you!” Or something a little less creepy. Either way, it’s been stressful. After a few weeks hiatus, I started my search again and was instantly met by these jaw-dropping, sequined, glamorous and AFFORDABLE royal blue pumps. At only $90, these could easily be my wedding shoes. And the all over sequins add just the right amount of pizzazz without being too overkill. For all of you not loving the blue, they come in gold and black too! You can find them at Zappos.

Which color is your favorite?
