The Mystical Feeling of Having Red Pumps



The Mystical Feeling of Having Red Pumps

By Annette Whitely






Aside from diamonds, shoes are considered one of a girl's best friends. The fascination of shoes ranges from various types like the steel hell, wedge, peep toe, pumps and the like. The styles also vary from strappy sandals to close and corporate shoes. Womens attraction towards shoes is also an investment in terms of purchasing brands like Chanel, Prada, Christian Louboutin, YSL and many more. Shoes complete the whole get up.

Just like accessories they add style and glamor. The most commonly used and allured shoe type are red pumps. Aside from the seductive color, red color compliments the red carpet feeling when a woman wears it. It is undeniably that wearing red highlights the feeling of supremacy and elegance.

Red shoes are attractive and most of all can catch much attention. The vibrant and fiery color of the shoes shows off the confidence that is within the person that wears it. It is important that a woman is comfortable with the shoes she is wearing because everything else will follow. The significance of wearing red pumps symbolizes courage, spontaneity and confidence that without a doubt show off the innate strength of a woman.

Women with this kind of personality are outgoing and have a good taste in terms of choosing the right shoes for them. Because these kind of red shoes come in different styles, from patented to leather, from strappy to suede, it is important that a woman picks the right shoes for her. Like in the fairy tale, Cinderella's shoe won't fit to any maiden in the land. To decide the right shoe for you, it is important to consider the cost and your budget.

Many high heeled red pumps come in variety of choices. The selection is so wide that you can have a hard time choosing the best styles for you. What is important is that you consider the fit, the occasion and most of all the cost that will be incurred upon purchasing these 'must have' shoes. There are choices like designer red pumps,or, the epitome of the red high heeled pumps that usually come in corporate styles. There are good and best buy red pumps, especially online.

The choices differ from the kind you wanted and to how much you can afford to spend. It doesn't require you to buy the signature or the brand. All you need is a keen eye and good taste in terms of picking the right shoe. There are mass made shoes that look like the designer ones, and that may suit your budget. It doesn't matter if you wear Christian Dior or the vintage Prada or a locally made pump shoe, what is important is the satisfaction you achieve upon getting those shoes on your feet.

Looking for quality shoes. My website offers product reviews and great offers on a selection of the shoes, including Red Pumps and leopard pumps, some of the coolest on the planet

Why Do Designer Shoes Make Women Feel Sexy?




Why Do Designer Shoes Make Women Feel Sexy?

By Christopher Stigson




A lot of people might ask themselves why a pair of designer shoes makes women feel so much more sexy... Is it the shoes themselves or the feelings they get from having the confidence in knowing their shoes are hot? Either way, shoes do mean a lot to women and they spend a lot of money on getting nice shoes for themselves, at least if they care about it. As a man it's hard to understand this obsession with shoes, but it's nice to see a woman in a pair of nice high heels along with a nice dress or similar. It makes them sexy for some reason, I'll admit to that...

Many women have a fair amount of shoes and shoes for all occassions. It's one of the most important factors for deciding an outfit. Some women prefer to wear "sexy" high heels and others go with the more casual style... While some prefer the "cute" innocent look. The difference between a "regular" pair of shoes and designer shoes is significant. The more expensive the shoes, more often than not, the woman will feel more confident... Maybe the price tag adds to the idea of a more luxurious lifestyle...

It's interesting to note, how the look of the shoes rarely plays a role here, but if it's expensive and cute or sexy, they usually gain more attention. A boring sneaker will not get as much attention as a nice pair of designer heels on a night out.

The color of the shoes, and design of the shoe also attracts attention in various ways. Most women shouldn't go with too over the top shoes if they aren't comfortable to wear them. This is the opposite of sexy. If the shoe doesn't fit the overall style or overall image of the person, it messes up the purpose of them to begin with. The business woman should probably not get some really high attitude heels and the hippie might not look so good in a pair of designer shoes...

There is a fine line to walk, and many people get it spot on. These are just some common issues with women and looking sexy in shoes. Other's think they are not slim enough to wear really nice shoes, or they don't have the income to buy more expensive shoes, but if you have the money definitely treat yourself with a nice pair of designer shoes!

Top Women's Shoes for This Spring


Top Women's Shoes for This Spring

By Sophie Sop Wilson




When it comes to looking good, you need to make sure that you are keeping up with all of the latest fashion trends. The important thing to remember, however, is that in today's world there is no reason to think that you need to spend a fortune in order to keep up with the latest fashions. As a matter of fact, you can actually save money by knowing where to shop. The other thing that is important to remember is that in today's world, you shouldn't follow the fashion trends without thinking about it. Instead, you should use your creative side. In other words, don't be afraid to play around with the latest fashions to get your own look. In this article, you will get all of the information you need about finding the best women's shoes for this spring.

The first thing you will want to think about when it comes to women's shoes in the spring is the colours. In short, you can count on there being two main seasonal colours. During the colder months and fall months, you will want to stick to earthy and darker colours. You are going to want to think practically, which means that you will want to wear warm clothes that will not only be closed when it comes to shoes, but which will also be insulated. Spring is all about the being outside and adjusting to the warmer weather. This means you will want whites, pastels, and other light colours. Also don't be afraid of open toe shoes and sandals.

One question that most women have when it's time to buy shoes for the spring has to do with getting the best deals. In other words, these women want to look good and they want to be in style, but at the same time they do not want to end up with overpriced pieces that will not last longer than the season. This is a definite problem, especially in today's tough economy. Your best bet will be to find a website that offers hot fashions at the right price.

If you are interested in finding the best women's shoes for spring, you are going to want to be sure to find a website that sells the best brands for the most reasonable prices. You will also want to be sure that you like what you see and that there is a reasonable return policy, since sizes for footwear vary so much.

Saddle Shoe Stylin'

I'm convinced that these shoes got me carded; people see saddle shoes and think "high school." Well, these shoes work with more than plaid skirts and white sweaters (though they work well there too). That's right, they even work with my funkiest dress--the one the sales clerk couldn't actually believe I was going to pay money for. I think they're just so unexpected nowadays that they could be added to anything but a ballgown (and shorts) and not raise many incredulous eyebrows.
Then again, maybe I'm just so in love with them and their ability to make me feel comfortable while walking miles and miles, plus their old-fashioned vibe, that I think they'd look great with a bathing suit. I don't know. But here's what I do know:
Comfort: 5/5
Versatility: 4.5/5
Value: 5/5
Style: 4/5
CSN Stores was fantastic; they offered free international shipping and had an amazing range of these in stock--grey options, pink options, cognac and navy options, etc. They arrived within 3 days and were immediately comfortable. They've also held up in rainstorms and tornado warnings and always serve as a conversation point.
Shoes: Bass via CSN Stores
Dress: Target
Tights: Target
Scarf: NISI
How many different ways can you think of to wear saddle shoes?
Full Disclosure: Not compensated by CSN Stores in any way for this review, except with the gratis saddle shoes of joy.

Already Layered, Plus AUH Relives Twin Peaks

First of all, apologies for being remiss in responding to comments and commenting myself lately. I've been reading and enjoying and am now finally in the clear again. Well, for now. Though I can now dress myself with more care, I still find myself reaching for numbers like this softer than you could believe thrifted shirt because I don't need to layer. It builds in its own cover-up tank while still doing its cowl gone wild thing. It's warm, it's easy, and I wore it today to a conference I wasn't presenting at when I was running late.
In other news, I received my product review shoes from CSN Stores earlier in the week. I know you're not supposed to wear them all day when they're new, but was running late and just pulled them on. Turns out I didn't need to worry. These have been comfortable from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. and are being complimented everywhere. I will write a fuller review soon, but am incredibly impressed so far.

No-Nonsense

For my first day back to teaching I went with a no-nonsense outfit:

1. Twinset - Ann Taylor Loft (cardi-remixed)
Skirt - Ann Taylor (ebay-ed)
Shoes - Ferryl Robin
Bag - Accessorize (remixed)

This skirt is a Wardrobe Workhorse. And I've owned two of the same. The first one I owned was a smaller size and when I needed a new one I found the same exact skirt, in a larger size, on Ebay. It's a wool-silk mix and works in every season. Even more important than the blend is the fit and the cut and the fact that Ann Taylor comes in petite sizing.

Because I was so black-and-gray today I tried to lighten up my outfit with accessories. Instead of pearls around my neck I went with green glass beads:
2. Earrings - Macy's
Necklace - Target
Bracelet - Carolee (gifted)

And then there were the shoes:
3. Shoes - Ferryl Robin

I actually find these shoes comfortable to teach in because of the thicker heel. I've worn them with more exciting outfits but I like them best against a no-nonsense combination. Especially because they invite spectators (err...students) to suspect that there might actually be a little nonsense involved.

Birthday in Black and Red

I officially became Older today. LHdM and M. took me out to one of my favorite places in town and we ate gnocchi so good I couldn't remember my name (I blame the truffle butter).

I had initially planned to wear something more festive (with polka dots!) but then thought I would try the "can this shirt tucked into a skirt look like a dress?" experiment. I also wore more accessories at one time than ever before--including lightning bolt-like earrings--but they seem to be sulking about never being worn and so aren't visible in the picture.

Shirt: H&M
Skirt: Thrifted
Shoes: El Naturalista (remixed)
Invisible Accessories: (remixed)

What looks do you like to wear with monochromatic outfits?

Beyond Birkenstocks: AUH in VT

I have never before started a post with a close-up of my feet. I had to buck my own trend for these Jeffrey Campbell wonders, though. After my exams I jetted off to Burlington, Vermont, where I got my undergraduate degree and where my family still lives. I'll admit it: I wore only Birkenstocks during the college years, except when I had to don 5 layers top to bottom to combat snow. In the past few years, however, I've started exploring all of the other amazing options Burlington has to offer. One store in particular, Stella on Church Street, offers a cornucopia of amazing shoes, from Frye sandals with heels (who knew?) to Miz Moo and, recently, beautiful and affordable tunic dresses and other styles.

Here I am in the store looking frightened at the sheer amount of beautiful clothes and shoes surrounding me. I wore my wine-colored Target dress because I knew it would pair well with the grey Campbells. The kind lady who took these photos noticed that the pairing worked even better than I had expected: the purple in the dress brought out the purple undertones in the shoes, which have a wonderfully vintage look to them (with buttons!).

I love that Burlington's style is so eclectic. In this town you've got Hot Topic blocks away from Stella and the Peace and Justice Center and April Cornell. I'm very much enjoying sitting back and watching jazz festival performances while sipping a Moulin Rouge and watching people with a range of styles walking by. I don't get to watch the performances while wearing the Campbells, though, since I can't justify them in my budget, but I'm having a fabulous time trying everything on.

Dress: Target (remixed)
Shoes: Jeffrey Campell, which will maybe be remixed some day if I do a lot of freelance work

Which cities do you love to visit for a different take on style?

Note: Stella did not slip me the shoes (or anything else) in exchange for being mentioned here.

So not exactly the way I planned it......

Ok so my shopping therapy did not get off to a great start last night, I left my office primed and ready got into my car….and it wouldn’t start! No worries …since the car was in the building garage I decided to take the Metro home, or at least close to home I had to take a cab from the metro. I got home kissed the kids, thanked the sitter and still had about an hour to get my "me time" or as some may call it my fix. Go ahead you can call me selfish, I do!

First I headed to DSW where I found a cute pair of brown heels they have sort of a metallic look in addition to the patent leather look. I also found some cute flip-flops for the summer. Since I still had a little time to spare I did a little clothes shopping too at a nearby store. I was n need of a new business suit but I hate getting the same old gray’s blues, blacks and browns. Lucky me, I found a brown and pink suit that I think is pretty cool a bit sassy if you ask me (goes with my new shoes too). Then I took a gander at the dresses, I couldn’t help myself I had to get this little black and green number.


I made it to my meeting just in time and also made it home in time to put the kiddos to bed. I am so beat! Tomorrow should be interesting, I will drive our other car to work call AAA and hope they can pull the other one out with relative ease… who am I kidding it is going to be a circus, but I have cute shoes!!!













Day 3 and still going strong!

So I am on day 3 of no hubby and I seem to be holding up. Luckily I have a great sitter that is going to help me out today and tomorrow by picking the kids up at their schools and taking care of them till I get home from my meetings. Whew!

I found out this morning that my meeting tonight has been pushed back an hour so I thought at first I would go home and see the kiddos but then the selfish side of me spoke up and said "don't do that, you have wanted to go shoe shopping for a while and you know you can't do it with kids so take an hour for yourself" Self I thought you are a pretty cool gal who knows just what I need!

So when I am done here are the office at 4 pm I am headed to Starbucks for a latte then to the DSW show warehouse and I am going to indulge myself with some shoes! OhMommy would be proud! I will be sure to let you know what if anything I find!
