Ruby & Bloom ‘Trisha’ Pump

Kori Ellis — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 02:39:16 +0000

Though they call these shoes “pumps”, they are really ballet flats with a little 1-inch heel. Combining rich suede and shiny patent leather, the Ruby & Bloom pump is a cute selection for fall. These shoes come in your choice of black, espresso or navy.

I’m usually not crazy about shoes with stubby heels. I prefer 3 inches or higher, totally flat, or a curvy kitten heel. These shoes find themselves somewhere above a flat but in no man’s land.

If you love these shoes, it’s a great time to buy from Nordstrom. Regularly priced at $89.95, these shoes are on sale until August 3rd for $59.90 a pair. They come in narrow, medium or wide widths for a great fit.

Juicy Couture Jade Flat

Jeweled flat sandals are trendy right now and that goes for other types of flats too. We are seeing may ballet flats adorned with jewels, crystals and other embellishments. The Juicy Couture Jade flat is designed from soft nappa leather and has a cluster of vintage-inspired jewels above the peep-toe.

These flats are super soft and easy to wear. They come in either teal blue (which is a great color for fall) or pale pink. The leather has a bit of an iridescent finish to give them a bit of a metallic touch.

These shoes are gathered around the edge for extra comfort and perfect fit. You can get the Juicy Couture leather flats right now at Nordstrom for $375 a pair.
