Shoe Wait

Ugh! I am supposed to be saving EVERY PENNY for my trip to Las Vegas. But, stupid Jeffrey Campbell and Solestruck decided to just blanket everyone with an AMAZING array of shoes that I just couldn't pass up. ARGH! So now I have these two beauties on their way to me. But I don't feel quite so guilty because I put a pair of Litas up for sale on eBay that I've never worn:

My Shoe Shelf


Yep, this is my Ikea Expedit shoe shelf! A boutique in Cleveland was closing up it's shop and I was lucky to be the first to respond to their ad on Craigslist that was offering up the bookcase (these things are REALLY popular, and the closest Ikea from Cleveland here is Pittsburgh)
I'm going to be honest, this doesn't house all of my shoes. I've got a a 60 gallon Rubbermaid tote in the garage that is completely full of my boots and another shelf holding more pairs of heels and sandals in the closet. But these are my favorites and the ones I will wear (or make a point to) the most.
Prior to this amazing shelf, I had ALL of my shoes in their original boxes stacked in rows up to the ceiling. It was madness. If I wanted to wear a certain pair, I'd have to search desperately for the designer and then the style name which I hopefully had turned outward on the box so I could see it. Boxes would eventually become bowed under the weight, and topple over when I'd go to get a pair out. Pretty soon I found I was just wearing the same pairs over and over because they were the most accessible. Out of site really is out of mind and now that I see all of the beauties I have, I'm wearing different ones left and right. I'm embarrassed to admit, there were several pairs I'd forgotten I owned completely.... But yeah, you could say I LOVE my new shelf. :)

Jeffrey Campbell Mariel in DENIM



One of my most very favorite shoe styles, the Jeffrey Campbell Mariel, has been released in DENIM. This is absolutely gorgeous and will go with a multitude of summer dresses. (I'm thinking *YELLOW*! Even though I'm supposed to be saving my money for my impending trip to Vegas, these are so rare that I had to buy the last size 6 from Buzz Jeans. You can find them here, but there are not many left!

Macys Sale

I normally don't shop at Macys but they had a great sale over the weekend that I took advantage of since they happened to be carrying two pairs of shoes I've been stalking!Jessica Simpson 'Ely'


Steve Madden 'Felicite'

The Jessica Simpson Ely's have such a great color palette, very 50s and girly. They are helping the 'Mad Men' style vibe I've been lusting over. And the Steve Madden Felicites just look perfect for summer with the wooden heel, and I like that it's a little thicker of a heel than I'd normally get for a change. Naturally, when I went to purchase these yesterday, the blush & coral Felicites were listed as out of stock, and today, they are magically back in stock. Bah. Sale is going on until 4/19/11.
