boot-iful shoes.

my apologies for the lack of outfit posts recently.
we've had a bunch of rain in the last couple of weeks which left me in a bit of a slump...resorting to comfy, non-presentable outfits and lots of repeats. fortunately, there have been several additions to the shoe-drobe.
i'm hoping these will walk me out of this rut.

i usually buy tan boots or something close to skin color, and this left a void in my shoe-drobe for basic black shoes. these are the perfect ankle height and the rubber soles are super comfortable. plus, these are actually my size. i rarely find boots in small size 5s...my feet are usually sliding around in size 6s. check out jenn in hers.

i have been wanting a pair of hunters forever. i couldn't justify buying them knowing they wouldn't get much use here. but you know how you get an itch for something? i had to scratch it. especially when they were $79 at gilt. if only they came
in time for last weeks rain.

as i mentioned above, i am lacking basic black shoes...including a basic plack pump. funny how basics are hard to find. i wanted something with a platform and a chunkier heel. i came across these and thought they were the next best option, and they proved to be very versatile. i later found the love fury below.

it's funny how one person can make up your mind. i wouldn't have given these colorful shoes a second look...until i saw a girl trying them on. she was already dressed in workout clothes, and the shoes looked so good. it was a couple days before i was able to go back and get them. thankfully there was a coupon for $10 off and one size left for me. the flash makes them look really bright. ok, they are really bright. and i'm ok with that.

nine west "love fury" pump in black leather
(buy)
finally, a great basic black pump. the love fury has a slight platform and a pointed toe that is wide enough to give your toes room to breathe. it does have a stiletto heel, but it was comfortable enough to not be an issue.
this one looks really good in nude, too.

even the minis got new shoes.

  7. Thanks for the mention. :) The best thing about the Enzos are that they look better each time you wear them. And now I have a little bright workout shoe envy. I only work out barefoot (yoga) so it'd be pretty hard to justify. But it doesn't mean I'm not trying to come up with a reason. Heheh.

  8. Wow big shoe shopping spree. I am loving those colorful workout shoes. I keep telling myself that is why I haven't been working out. I am lacking the 'new shoe' motivation! :)
    Love all the others as well.

  12. Great buys. I adore your new Nike's, I love bright tennis shoes when I work out. Mini's Car shoes are too cute.

  13. The problem with basics is there are SO MANY to choose from that are all very similar, and finding the RIGHT one is difficult. I absolutely love those super bright running shoes. I really aught to invest in a good pair, especially since my last pair is covered in fake blood from the zombie walk haha...

  29. Yesssss for new shoes. I always seem to gravitate towards buying a new pair of shoes before anything else, which then leaves a huge gaping hole in my closet for everything else.
