I Want: Flesh-Colored Structural Shoes
Posted on 09.18.09 to $150 and under by LindsayI’m one of those people who love to have chunky, robot-like shoes that look as though they’re taking over your feet.
Gigantic, ridiculously bulky shoes are surprisingly favored by me. I usually like the sleek and clean – but when it comes to skintone-matching shoes, I like making up for the lack of color by allowing the shoes to be almost voluminous, and crazy with details.
I crave skin tone-matching, or tan (definitely not my skin tone) colored shoes not only for the leg-lengthening reasons, but because it’s the most unexpected, risky neutral – you’re matching your skin! I dream of pairing these heels with black, cropped slacks or perhaps tights and a waist-defining, silky dress… Or, on a wild streak, ankle-length, white jeans – rolled up, and topped with a prim cami & cardigan.
Cindy Says Edison Pump – $99.52 (were $180.95)
Vince Camuto Della Bootie – $149.95
Frye Grace Woven Sandals – $68.40 (were $228)
Of course the only size left is mine. Curses on my lack of money!
Which do you like, if any?

I love the last one, the Velvet Angels pump, and the Frye t-strap. All gorgeous! Sal’s right – these are great alternatives to the “nude pump” staple. Good eye, Elle!
