J. Reneé Elvira Pump

Kori Ellis — Fri, 08 May 2009 08:42:48 +0000

For a shoe that’s a little unique, check out the J. Reneé ‘Elvira’ Pump. It’s not exactly a pump — more like an open-toe mule. These ruched satin shoes feature an abstract bow over the toe and an interesting silhouette.

These shoes come in four fabulous colors for spring and summer — pink, teal, bone and papaya (shown). You can order these shoes from Nordstrom for just $89.95. They would be a great complement to summer dresses or cropped pants.

If you don’t want to wear sandals all the time, but closed pumps aren’t appropriate, then the J. Reneé Elvira would definitely be a good choice.

Christian Louboutin Bouquet Platform Pumps

Kori Ellis — Wed, 06 May 2009 08:11:24 +0000

These pretty platform pumps from Christian Louboutin are blooming for spring. They feature black floral lace over pale pink satin. These shoes are a versatile choice, as opposed to a more colorful floral print. You can wear these peep-toe pumps with almost anything in your wardrobe.

Christian Louboutin shoes are definitely a huge splurge (these are priced at $995 at Neiman Marcus). However, if you are going to wear them often, a pair of high quality, designer shoes can be a good investment.

Personally, my shoe collection is a mix of footwear in almost every price range. I have 5-10 pairs expensive designer shoes, many of which were bought on clearance or discount. But the majority of my shoes are in the mid-range, from makers such as Nine West, Bandolino and Naughty Monkey. Then, of course, I have some real bargains like sequined and beaded Khussa shoes.

Perfect for a party, these pumps have a pleated peep-toe and buckled slingback strap. The 4-inch heel is covered with rows of sparkling purple crystals.

You can get the Stuart Weitzman Peepers pumps right now at Nordstrom for $450. They also come in black satin.

Jean-Michel Cazabat Opium Pump

Kori Ellis — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 19:31:41 +0000

Normally when I see cork pumps, they look a little drab. However, these from Jean-Michel Cazabat are anything but dull. They feature a little bit of sparkle infused into the cork uppers.

Priced at $595 from Barneys CO-OP, these peep-toe pumps have gold metallic trim and a 4-inch ombre heel. These shoes are sparkly enough for evening wear, but not so gaudy that you can’t also wear them to work.

If you are looking for something a little bit different, the Jean-Michel Cazabat Opium pump is a terrific alternative.

CARLOS by Carlos Santana Roulette

Kori Ellis — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 05:21:14 +0000

Maybe these shoes are called “Roulette” because they are a little risky. These patent leather peep-toe pumps feature a d’Orsay design and colorful fantasy print.

From the CARLOS by Carlos Santana line, these pumps offer a pink and blue metallic graphic print and a thin buckled strap over the toe. You can get these shoes right now at Zappos for just $88.95.

These bold d’Orsay pumps will add some flavor to even the simplest outfit. You can wear them with everything from a black dress to a business suit to a sweater and jeans.

Christian Louboutin Fringe Cutout Boot

Kori Ellis — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 13:04:42 +0000

Is it a peep-toe pump? Is it a fringed boot? Who knows, but it’s definitely ugly.

Though I’m a huge fan of Christian Louboutin and understand the marketing need for “shock value” shoes at times, this one is just a monstrosity. The bottom portion of the boot looks your typical camel suede peep-toe pump, but then it breaks out into a shaft. And a fringed shaft at that.

Priced at $1,695, the Christian Louboutin Fringe Cutout Boot is available at Neiman Marcus.

So tell me Shoe Blitz readers… would you wear it? Even if it were free? Not me.
