  • Fit Flops: Form Meets Function
    Fit Flops first made it big last year. Engineered by Marcia Kilgore –the founder of Bliss Spa, the sandals with “microwobbleboard technology” promise greater calorie burn and cellulite reduction simply by walking. While this sounds too good to be true, there has been a ton of buzz generated from every day women to celebrities, all who claimed to have toned their...

  • Lusting after: The Oxford Sandal
    It’s no secret. I’m devoted to the gladiator sandal. Flat, heeled, or knee high (I’m not a fan of mid-length), I love them all….o.k most of them. But with everyone turning gladiator for summer, I feel its time for a change: cue the

  • Polls: The Hybrid Shoe
    Part leg warmer, part gladiator sandal, part flip-flop, these sandals by Cocobelle are a bit of a fashion dilemma. The evolved design is sure to turn some heads ( though not necessarily in a good way). Although the jersey and rubber shoes are probably outrageously comfortable - kind of like walking around in those footy PJ’s we used to wear as kids …we’re not...

  • Loafing Around: The Return Of The Loafer
    Whenever there is a stampede of vertiginous footwear like those of the current skyscraper climate, you can be sure there is a thoroughly horizontal backlash just around the corner. Not that I am advocating an utter abandonment of all things heeled (I’m a heels girl through and through) it’s just that there are some occasions for which my 5 inch wedges and...

  • Copycat: Minnetonka vs Jessica Simpson
    So, I get that imitation is the highest form of flattery, but I can’t imagine the people at Minnetonka Moccasin company being overly pleased with Jessica Simpson at the moment. Her beaded Minnetonka “Thunderbird” moc, worn by many a celeb such as Kate Hudson, Courtney Cox, Julia Roberts and Drew Barrymore (Kate Moss is also a Minnetonka fan, although she favours...

  • Shopping: French Sole “Season” flats
    While I love spring and the warm weather it brings, I haven’t managed to find the time to get a pedicure. By this, I mean that my toes are staying hidden in ballet flats until I get myself over to a salon! But just because my tootsies haven’t caught up to this season doesn’t mean the rest of me has fallen behind, which is why I was delighted to find these super...

  • Closet Solutions: Rakku Shoe Wheel
    I stumbled upon this image of the Rakku Shoe Wheel while blog-surfing today and was just mesmerized by it. Most women struggle to find ample storage space for all of their shoes. Stacked in the original boxes, strewn about on the floor, precariously hanging from one of those over-the-door shoe racks, there hasn’t really been a great way to keep things organized...

  • Chunky Footwear: Cavalli Wedges
    So, I’m not totally sure what to think of these wedges from Roberto Cavalli … I am a big fan of wooden shoes and I love the contrast of the creamy pale leather (makes me think of safari, or someplace tropical and exotic).
