3 New Pairs of Shoes

I have been looking and looking for shoes all over the place. I'm very particular, and even though I've had bad luck with ordering shoes online, I'm at it again. With the free shipping/free returns at Zappos, Piperlime, and Endless; I really can't help myself.

Pair #1: Dolce Vita, Marine Patent Leather - $125 at Zappos


As part of the 80s stuff I can actually get into, I wanted some bright-colored, but not cheap-looking pumps. I'm kind of over red, but I wanted some colored shoes to wear, in particular, with my new black & white dress. I think these look fun. Plus, the review say they aren't really "patent" leather, which I like.


Pair #2: Tribeca by Kenneth Cole, Bellerina, black - $72.95 at Zappos

I've wanted these for a while. Finally decided on black. Hopefully they will be as cute in person.



Pair #3: Report Signature Vivian Pump, gray, $69.90 (with -$5 shipping) at Endless - I bought the last 7.5 pair! [$134 at Zappos!]

I know gray was huge for fall, but I just love these. I think the stacked wood heel keeps them from looking too "fall." The price didn't hurt either!




By the way, I LOVE Endless.com. What a great website. We'll see how their service rivals Zappos, but I love the sorting functions, the sale area, the fairer prices, and the lack of JUNK. You do have to act fast though. Yesterday, these $140 [at Nordstrom] Hype shoes were $39. Today they're gone.

I'm still wanting some cute leather flats (love these Steve Madden Trebbles in green), but I'm not willing to pay $60+ for casual shoes.

Update: Kept the Tribecas (they really are STIFF though), returned the 2 pumps (too much toe cleavage on both, and the gray ones were SUPER gorgeous, but the heel height was way too high for me!). I did buy some new patent pumps at Zappos... see next post!
