Time to break out your sandals, ladies. Spring is almost here. If you are searching for a cute pair of low heeled sandals, look for those with beads and other embellishments for a little extra flair.

The J. Renee Ella sandal features a wooden footbed and a colorful beaded medallion with a Native-American flavor. The tribal trend will be strong again this spring, and these shoes can take you there.

Priced at under $100 at Nordstrom, these sandals come in black, natural cork, or the white/turquoise combination pictured here. These cute sandals would look great with the Boho-chic fashions that are hip this season.

Manolo Blahnik Cage Pony Slide

Kori Ellis — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 00:16:54 +0000

Though I’m a big Manolo Blahnik fan, I’m not sold on these black and white slides from the Spring Collection. Featuring a high vamp and cage-link design, these shoes are definitely unique. I’m just not sure they are that attractive.

The Manolo Blahnik “Habibi” has a 4 1/2-inch heel and a peeptoe. The black leather lacing is intricate, but might not look that great when there’s a foot in it.

What do you think about these Manolo Blahnik slides? Hot or not? Leave your comments here and let us know.

If you love these shoes, you can order them now at Neiman Marcus for $1,100.

REPORT ‘Redding’ Sandal

Kori Ellis — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 04:35:14 +0000

Jeweled and beaded sandals are hot for spring. While some beaded shoes are glitzy and glamorous, this one from REPORT has a tribal, more casual appeal.

This leather thong sandal features three colorful beaded medallions along the red leather t-strap. It’s a great spring sandal that can be dressed up or dress down. You could wear these with a long boho skirt, linen capris or even shorts.

You can get the REPORT Redding sandals right now for $69.95. They also have a similar beaded sandal in black at the same price.

Old School Cool: Gucci Leather Clogs

Kori Ellis — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 04:11:52 +0000

When I was in elementary school. I had some cool clogs (well, they were cool at the time). They were the only high heel shoes that this 10-year-old was allowed to wear. From time to time, clogs have come back into fashion but they don’t usually stick around long.

Right now, you can get these dark brown leather clogs from Gucci’s Spring Summer Collection that sort of remind me of my grade school clogs. The Janis platform clogs feature a round buckle detail and goldtone stud accents.

Of course the highlight of these shoes, like all clogs, is the thick platform sole. These Gucci clogs will cost you a bit more than my elementary school version. Priced at $745, you better be sure you love them before you splurge. You can get these platform shoes now at Neiman Marcus.

Fendi Multicolored Python Pump

Kori Ellis — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 05:08:20 +0000

You might have seen the Fendi python bag that I was talking about on Shopaholics Daily last week. Now here’s the pumps in a similar multi-colored rainbow python.

Fendi takes a simple silhouette and dresses it up in luxurious yet colorful python. These python pumps feature an almond shaped toe and 4-inch heel.

You can get these Fendi heels right now at Net-a-porter for $890. Though I wouldn’t recommend wearing them with the bag (too matchy-matchy for my taste), they definitely look like they are worth the splurge.

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.

Jimmy Choo Mary Jane Espadrilles

Kori Ellis — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 06:08:09 +0000

I’m not sure what to think about these new Jimmy Choo shoes.

They feature earthtones and an espadrille style with a 4-inch rope wedge heel. The components are good – peep toe, closed heel, Mary Jane strap – but when you put it altogether, it doesn’t really work.

What do you think about these shoes? Hot or Not?

If you love them, you can pre-order these Jimmy Choo Mary Jane Espadrilles right now from Saks Fifth Avenue for $380.

If you are looking for a new pump for the office, this one from Anne Klein is a hot choice.

The chunky heel and slightly squared off toe at some modern funk to these shoes. But the highlight of these patent leather pumps is definitely the croc-embossed texturing.

Are you an Ed Hardy fan? This Ed Hardy sneaker features tattoo-inspired details in a colorful print.

In what looks like a similar silhouette to the Converse All-Star low model, these shoes actually slip on instead of lace up. The off white canvas upper features elastic goring to secure the fit.
