This is a pair I’ve had for quite some time and probably aren’t available anymore. The Look: I do like white shoes and this is a pretty slide with a Native America style theme. The very low heel is the only thing that I don’t like with the look and it’s the height I object…
The Look: While gold is one of my least chosen colors, this shoe makes it work very well. The platform and heel have a dark gold sparkle that closely matches the center ring. Lighter gold straps and sole soften the overall appearance in a complementary way. The slingback gives the shoe a more minimal…
The Look: It’s a pretty shoe with nice smoke colored rhinestones across the toe band, crisscross straps over the instep, 4 inch stiletto heels and a heel cup with a zipper. For me, zippers don’t add anything to the looks of a shoe and, to a fairly small degree, they detract from the overall…
The Look: Lots of nice black cables, crisscrossing, the knot in the middle, the heel cup, the stiletto heel combine to make this more an interesting shoe than an actually pretty one. Add that the cables are close enough to the point that only 3 toes show easily in front of the cables, the 4th…
I’m changing the format a little, starting off with a paragraph that has history or something I want to say that isn’t related to the various points I usually address about a pair of shoes. With this pair, I deliberately went looking for a pair of shoes that was Fuchsia. My favorite online shoe source…
The Look: This has a very similar look to X Appeal Sarah, the broad toe band with the chain link is reminiscent of the braid on Sarah. Both are low heel wedges with beige coloring with gold. I really shouldn’t, probably, have both pair. They’re just too alike even though they aren’t the same. I…
The Look: These shoes have to be just awesomely beautiful. Why? Because I designed them. Kind of. The Shoes of Prey website has design capability where you make choices and design your shoes from the available options. These are white soft leather with a contrasting black outer sole, the heel cup, an ankle strap and…
The Look: It’s an absolutely gorgeous shoe, sparkling in the light, only a single band across the toes and a crisscross on the instep and a zippered heel cup to finish. The heel is decently high, though only 4″, and there’s a nice platform. The Fit: This one aspect makes me want to start up…
The Look: This shoe is quite diverse from my normal tastes. While still technically still a sandal, the number and proximity of the straps results in very little of the foot showing. I like the design on the top, reminiscent of Native American bead work. Also, the picture to the side being flipped from the…
The Look: This might, currently, be my favorite pair. Champagne, as a color, always catches my eye and this pair shifts into gold with the right light. A nice platform with a 4.5 inch heel that I’ve just learned is a ‘chunky heel’, neither a stiletto nor a block. The heel cup has an elegance…
