I’m not normally a fan of the shoes that have a thick ankle cuff. They always look too chunky and clunky for my taste. But these Manolo Blahnik patent leather sandals are an exception for me. Originally priced at $745, these pretty white sandals are on sale at Barneys for $389.25.
You can find a lot of designer goods on sale right now at Barneys.com, from shoes and handbags to beauty products and home decor.
Another item that I’m putting on my wish list is this patent leather Lanvin shoulder bag. It features a chain and leather strap, turn lock closure and …read more

Who is your favorite shoe designer? I want to know if anyone  other than the obvious Jimmy Choo or Manolo Blahnik make the list

Still enjoying the December sunshine in Florida and while I’m here, it’s really easy to turn my thoughts to springtime and the shoes that I might want to consider Even my husband commented on them as he went by the kitchen table where I am working at the moment. He thought that they would look cute with a little black skirt. That’s all the enticement I need lol… he just doesn’t know it yet!

Reminds me of a ballet slipper with a heel, don’t you think?? Would look rather amazing at one of this year’s Christmas parties or even better… New Year’s Eve! Is there a pair of shoes by Manolo Blahnik that I don’t like??
Which reminds me, I have to start thinking about what I’m going to wear. Our first Christmas party takes place on November 30. It seems that they get earlier every year. Just out of curiosity, have you picked out your holiday outfits yet??

I don’t know about you, but don’t you just hate it when your favorite pair of heels are completely ruined by little gouges on the heel. I don’t know how they get there, but I manage to find all the places to go to ruin a pair. And I hate to mention this, but shoes have been creeping up in price and if I can find a way to hold onto them a little bit longer, I’m going to. Thank heavens for Smart Heel Heel Protectors

When I first heard how popular yellow was going to be for the summer, I wasn’t sure, but you can see that the yellows all vary in intensity.
And can you guess which is the most expensive?? It comes in at a cool $3650.00. The answer is in the next section along with the shoes…

This is from his pre-fall lineup, something I don’t even want to think about… fall that is. I’m still waiting for the temperatures to rise and  if we can jump right over spring into summer, I’m good with that. But I do like these shoes!! The first thing I thought of were the old Mary Jane style of shoes and apparently Manolo Blahnik thought so too. They are available at  Neiman Marcus  for $645.00.
