I cant finish the fake song because I dont know whate else to rhyme with. No, but seriously, these are my ex-babies: once mine, they never really struck a cord with me so I sold them. Yup...some I regret letting go, and others I dont....
So here goes:
First of the bunch is the Jessica Simpson Waleos. They have approximately a 5.25 inch heel and a 1.5 inch platform. The leopard prints were the rave this past season, and still is. Check them out here.
I found these babies on sale at Nordstrom,what drew me in was that crazy leopard print and those platforms...girl! At the time I thought the shoes were pretty cute, they barely lasted a day in my closet...and were carted off to ebay...lol
SAM EDELMAN LORISSA
Now these babies were the business! I am telling you! Girls will either hate you or love you for obvious reasons. Infatuation I tellya, it was a short, steamy, affair, me and Lorissa. I snatched them up on a sale at Nordstrom, but later sold them because I had nowhere to wear them really. Its funny,I had such a hard time selling them on ebay for as low as $120.00 but the actual shoe retailed $225.00 on solestruck!!*scratches head* Edelman has released a closed toe version of these shoes on various websites and you can get to them here
ZIGI NY "Stripper Shoes"(Not the Official Names)
Now the names of these, I cant remember, but I know for sure that they were my first purchase from ZigiNY. I was attracted because they were a replica of Giuseppe Zanotti's platforms. I was so obsessed, I hunted these shoes down!! Since Zigi did not have an official website where you could purchase the shoes, I called the ZigiNY store in New York. I described the shoes to the clerk who rang it up on the phone, then I had to send a freakin money order, to pay for the shoes and have them shipped to me.
That dear friends was a sign, indicating the beginning a full blown shoe addiction. lol, I cant tell you where you can find these babies, but there are so many replicas on the market, you should have no problem finding a pair. Oh and I tried to sell them later on when I saw a porn actress wearing the very same shoes.(dont ask me how)
Badgley Mischka is well known for their formal wear and bridal gowns. I had never heard of their shoe line until I discovered Mark & James for Badgley Mischka woven sandals. I thought they were phenomenal and decided to do a little more research on the kind of shoes the label produced. Unfortunately I did not find anything to my taste, most of them were very satin silvery,pretty bridal shoes.(not for me thankyou!). Mark & James label is a more affordable brand for the Badgley Mischka shoe line. This particular pair isnt available online.
Check out more from the Mark and James line Here
Sam Edelman for the past 4 years has held the mainstream shoe market hostage with his edgy downtown chic designs. And no doubt, he has every right to! I love these Novatos!! Print or color you name it they got it. And if you don't like the sling backs there are open-toes available for your enjoyment.
Check out a pair of Novatos here.
i'm glad you're constantly writing for your love for shoes! keep it up! on and upward your way to your own line soon!!!
