For a minute, last week - it was summer. The sun was out, it was mid-60s in Seattle (that's summer here, ok) and I left the house in leggings under jeans, a sweater with a wool coat, scarf and gloves. ...
I went on the search for today's wedgie with the intention of planting some serious emerald green a la 2013 in your face, but instead, I have come back with a variation on my original goal. I come bearing teal suede ...
This is enough of a wedge to be considered a wedge, right? Maybe? Possibly? Strappy Cutout Cork Wedge, $38.50 Well, either way, you are still looking at it because it was designed with an judgement-suspending magnetism to make you want something you know ...
80%20 is having an "end of winter" clearance sale. Isn't that cute? "End of winter." As if we don't have two more months of sub-open-toe temperatures and damnit I'm not leaving this season before it snows in the Pacific Northwest! ...
You know one of the only things better than a wingtip oxford? A wingtip oxford wedge. I have seen many oxford wedges in my day, but I like this one because it's less blocky and modular than the others ...
I talk a lot about "timeless" things because I feel like those are the items most deserving of anyone's dollar. If it's not going to be relevant in your life for more than 25 minutes - don't spend that cash! It's ...
I honestly never thought that there would be a day when I wanted to put anything other than a wedgie onto this page every Monday. That was approximately 3 minutes before I saw these shoes sitting on the Topshop site ...
Bucco is a shoe brand that I am slowly getting more familiar with. I've seen their shoes (mostly boots) floating around the Kohl's website, and I must say - I like what I see. Bucco Genesia Boots, $59.99 at Kohl's ...
Here we are, hours away from 2013 (or already there, Australia!) and all I can think about is the impending weather. We're guaranteed to see lowering temperatures, heightened precipitation, and fewer reasons to leave the house. I'm going to do ...
Attractive, tall, wedge boots, much like fairly priced coffee in Seattle, are not an easy feat to come by. They either make you look like you have have weird figure-skater pants on over your heels, or... hooves (and not in a ...
In the spirit of Friday's post about simplifying your life in the spirit of true Broke-ness, I couldn't pass up these simple, timeless, Mary Jane wedges when I saw them this morning. Sure, they're eleven feet high and the suede ...
Lately, the idea of a pointed-toe wedge sounds really good to me. I'm not sure why, exactly, but I can tell you that I like the stability of the wedge in combination with the long leg-line that the toe encourages. The closed-toe ...
Ok, this is where my own opinion start to get fuzzy... I'm not a fan of loafers, but these look clean and chic to me. I can see them with bright tights or even patterned ones... wide-leg pants, or maybe ...
There's something I like about these booties, but I can't shake the "constantly coming out of a rainy walk" feeling they give me, or the fact that the vamp looks like a comfortable sweater neckline... But I like them! I ...
You find some of the best things in the strangest of places. Like... JC Penney. I know, I know, I should give them more credit. They had a complete company overhaul, and have this new life ahead of them full ...
One of the most legendary horror movies of our time is, surprisingly, JAWS. Yes, the gaping, toothy maw of Bruce, the great white shark terrorized that poor, seaside town with a vengeance... Honestly? I've never seen it. There aren't many films ...
It's candy season!! The season of holidays and overindulgence and really hot ovens is finally upon us, and with it comes approximately two pounds of refined sugar for each of us. Ahhh, America. I don't do too much candy-huffing, to be ...
I've always said that there is such a thing as comfortable, fashionable shoes - they're not the Unicorn of the shoe world. I've now seen it with my own eyes. My new Aerosoles. Can you believe it? Aren't they the ...
I've always had a love for robots, and the idea of biomechanical... things-that-won't-turn-on-us-and-enslave-us. This also played into my need for flesh-colored shoes a long time ago. Every so often, a robot sneaks into my inspiration board and takes over, as ...
We are strapped in ever so many ways. Strapped for cash, strapped for time, strapped for enthusiasm. I like to take momentary straps very seriously. Meet the Viking Buckle Boot. These spoke to me (softly, and sweetly) from the Reverse ...
