Kori Ellis — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 03:30:46 +0000

Today, let’s take a look around the blogosphere (I hate that word) and see what’s happening on some other fabulous shoe blogs.

Whose Shoes Wednesday at Manolo’s Shoe Blog (My guess was Nicole Kidman but I’m wrong.)
Four Favorite Shoes for Fall from The Jbandme Style Blog (Love the boots!)
Banana Republic Vivica Equestrian Boot from Adventures in the Stiletto Jungle (New and hot!)
Camilla Skovgaard Suede Cutout Boots from The Shoe Goddess (Love that skinny heel!)
Dita is my muse, says Christian Louboutin at Shoewawa (Just gorgeous!)
Fashion’s Night Out at eye4style (Not a shoe blog but worth reading. Read more from Dina at Makeup Minute.)

Be sure to visit these fashion blogs everyday. They always have some fabulous information on the latest and greatest in footwear.

My cool shoe choice of the day:

Le Due by Due Farina Era Matronic Pump

Kori Ellis — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 22:34:50 +0000

Le Due by Due Farina is a relatively new, hip line that adds a little funk and glamour to your look. While Due Farina offers chic evening shoes, Le Due is a little more playful. From hippy chic boots to patent Mary Janes, they have some fantastic choices.

One of my favorites is this glossy Era Matronic Pump. It features a fabulous purple color (Vienna Bordeaux) and a modern design. The gold tone hardware and thick strap give this shoes some extra flair.

You can order the Le Due by Due Farina patent pump right now from Endless for $239.95. They aren’t cheap but if you think you will wear these often, the shoes are a great buy.

Kori Ellis — Tue, 30 Dec 2008 05:58:48 +0000

The Manolo Blahnik “Veni” is a fabulous patent shoe that will add a splash of color to any outfit. Available in red or turquoise patent leather, these shoes have a tonal buckle over the open toe and a 3 1/2-inch high heel.

The d’Orsay silhouette and terrific colors make these designer shoes a fun, flirty choice. As with all Manolo Blahnik shoes, these run small. So order up a half size larger than you usually wear.

Poetic Licence ‘Body Talk’ Sandal

Kori Ellis — Sun, 21 Dec 2008 08:51:52 +0000

Ruffled shoes are everywhere these days. Recently, I have seen some really beautiful choices, such as these Christian Louboutin T-strap sandals and these Martinez Valero sandals.

Now, here’s an affordable option from Poetic Licence. These shoes come in pink or black satin and feature wide ruffles along the T-strap. With a closed back and 4-inch heel, the Body Talk sandal makes a great choice for a party shoe.

You can get these sandals right now at Nordstrom for under $150. Personally I love the pink ones, but obviously the black are more versatile.

Dior Maya Straw-Heel Pump

Kori Ellis — Sun, 21 Dec 2008 08:32:33 +0000

For Spring, I’m seeing a lot of interestingly heeled shoes, including cork, lucite and other materials. Here’s a pump from Dior that also fits the bill.

Featuring blue leather and cream topstitching, this peeptoe pump has a woven straw heel that sits on a goldtone pedestal. These are definitely unique but I’m not sure if they are attractive.

What do you think? Are these pumps pretty? Would you buy them? (Ignore the fact they are over $1,100.)

If you like the Dior Maya Straw-Heel Pump, you can order it now at Neiman Marcus.

J.Renee Whirl Wedge Sandal

Kori Ellis — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 11:12:03 +0000

If you are looking for a fancy evening shoe, but don’t want too high of a heel, this wedge sandal from J.Renee is a good choice. Featuring three crystal encrusted rings to create the T-strap, these sandals are dressy enough for any holiday party.

They feature a 2 3/4-inch wedge heel. Wedges are much more comfortable than stilettos for most women because they distribute your weight. You can get these shoes in red, black or white patent, or bronze, gold or silver metallic.
