The Look: Who doesn’t love peacocks? And clear jewels? And black satin? All in all, a very pretty shoe and by one of my favorite brands. From the ankle strap to the open toe, it’s a shoe that crosses the line from pump to sandal and back again. The Fit: Quite nice for a half…
The Look: I do like the way it looks. The flat, rope look cabling has a certain aesthetic that’s very appealing. Add in an interesting design across the top of the foot and it’s a pretty sandal. Unfortunately, adding the foot turns this around a bit. The main problem actually shows up in careful consideration…
The Look: I love the look. The color. The jewels. The T-Strap. The stiletto heel. The way my foot curves above the sole, giving the impression of an even higher arch than I have. I’m looking forward to finding a dress to go with them and having a date to the opera or something similar…
From my last 3 posts, you’d think all my shoes were black. I’m sure it’s just co-incidence because I know the method I’m using to pick the next shoe to review. Until I’m caught up it isn’t going to be based on the date of purchase and that’s still about 20 pairs away. The Look:…
The Look: This shoe has a lot of things that I really like. The heel cup and ankle strap, the diagonal strap from near the toe across the instep and the narrow band across the toes. It’s also got a higher heel than most wedges. As well, I do love black. Though I usually prefer…
The Look: Some shoes, as I mentioned with my previous post on Touch Ups – Allie, look better on my feet than they did in the picture. This shoe is an example of the opposite. On the website where I purchased this pair, I loved the look of it, the crisscross on the toe box…
The Look: A very nice glitter look pink with intricate strap design. The toe tip on the inner sole is reflective and also catches the light. But, and I can’t discount this as a mere fitting issue, on my foot the positioning of the straps has the side effect of making my little toe look…
The Look: Obviously, the first thing to note is the color. The light, or the dark red background, or a combination of the two have made this shoe to be lighter and pinker than it actually is. This is a bright firehouse red. And it has too many straps. Still, I kind of like the…
The Look: I’m, perhaps, overly fond of Benjamin Walk’s Touch Ups line and this shoe purchase is the result of a search on Touch Ups ordered by percent off and picking the next I don’t have where I like the look. What a way to buy shoes! Biggest money savings on a brand I really…
The Look: White, again. And another with a kind of Native American theme. While it is true that I have a tendency to buy 2 pairs of related styling on shoes at the same time, this isn’t the case here. Magnolia was purchased years ago, but Tana is 2015. Nor am I the only one…
