Red Shoe Diaries

Ok, it is my (almost) new month resolution that I shall return to being a good little shoe blogger. While shoes have retained their spot in the center of my heart, work has stolen my blogging fingers away and kept me from writing about my beloved little zapatos. So, I have decided to reprioritize and put shoes back at the top of the list where they belong!

Today, I want to take a peek at red shoes. I love the kick of a scarlet red pump when they are an accent to a neutral outfit. Here are a few that I like right now:


Domenico Vacca (a favorite designer of mine), red peep-toe pumps with bow accent. Adorable!


Jimmy Choo leather and snake skin pumps. (These would look so hot with a work outfit.)


Manolo Blahnik red open-toe satin pumps with cut-out detail.

Viva la red shoe!

The Fall Essentials

Sorry I've been away for a bit. I have been traveling and up to my eyeballs in work. But I'm happy to say that I'm back home in Boston, finally, and back to looking at hot shoes!

So in my in-box today was Net-a-porter's list of Fall shoe must haves, and I'm very happy to say that we've been chatting about pretty much all of them! :-) They are:

Knee high boots
They suggest either stacked heel boots or flat riding style boots. I'm going to go with the flat Jimmy Choos that I've already got (though I'm still considering removing that tassel) and shall continue to covet the high heeled black knee high Choos that I posted about earlier. Net-a-porter also suggests boots with buckles and studs such as these:

(Brown boots by, Celine, Black boots by, Fendi)
I think the Celine boots are ok, but I'm not feeling the Fendi boots. That's just me.

Platforms:
They suggest animal prints (woohoo, we're so ahead of the curve), satin sandals, and t-bar styles. I'm not a big platform shoe fan, at all, but these Christian Louboutins are pretty coolio.


These have a cool peep toe which makes them good for not only the "platform" section but also the next suggested Fall essentials:

Pumps and Peep Toes:
My sweet Bruno Frisoni's can definitely be one of my new peep toes (though they haven't arrived yet, so I can't wear them to the symphony tonight! Boooo!), but I also like these pretty Jimmy Choos:

Ankle Boots and Shoe Boots:
We've covered these like crazy in a post below, so take a peek there for some hot styles for Fall.

Embellished Flats:
Again, we've covered these like crazy in a post below, so scroll on down to check them out.

So hooray, peeps! It looks like we've set our selves up pretty well for the Fall and were way ahead of the curve as usual! Why are we so good??? :-)
