Leopard: the go-to shoe


Us ladies are always in need of a go-to shoe. When we head to the closet in the morning, getting ready for work, or even getting ready for a night out on the town, it's always helpful to have that staple shoe that will spice up ye ol' outfit a bit, and give you that extra kick of confidence. As I analyze my go-to shoes and really think about which ones are the most faithful companions to me, I see to turn to my leopard shoes. They are always adorable, always complimentary of my skinny colored denim or even my neutral work dress. Here was the other day's shameless self-pic:


Recently, I came across the amaaaayzing selection of sweet leopard kicks that Macy's carries, pretty much year-round. They have a fab-oo tribe of peep-toes, wedges, pumps, kitten heels, and flats--all adorned in this classic leopard that I speak of. I figured it's time YOU get your hands on some! For instance, these pretty, pretty INC International Concepts 'Selva' Pumps. At a great less-than-$90 price point, these classic beauties are a dashing 3 1/2" heels, with a pointed toe front. The soles are all man-made, and the upper fabric is pretty pony hair, for that real-deal look you're after. Great shoe!

Or how about this GUESS 'Russole' Slingback Wedge--party dress ready and smokin' H-O-T! And you just can't go wrong with a brand like GUESS! These leather wedges have a modern round-toe front and a 3/4" hidden platform for that extra oomph of height. Regularly a $120 shoe, Macy's now has 'em at a whopping SALE price right now! So super cute to guide you through summer and well into fall.
 

And last, but certainly not least, are these bold 'INC International Concepts 'Magnolia' Platform Pumps. This peep-toe, t-strap pump that gracefully shows off that summertime pedi is a generous 4 3/4" of pure leopard heel height! A 1 1/2" stacked platform on this baby makes it more manageable to walk in all day, and show off those sassy sun-tanned legs of yours. 
So whether trousers or skinnies, skirts or shorts, there is no wrong way to wear your go-to leopard shoe this season!

Long time, no type.

You guys. Has it seriously been a full YEAR since I've typed up a blog post on here? That is both depressing and encouraging. Depressing--because I feel like I have forgotten about my first "child" my Holly in Heels blog. Encouraging--because it means that I have been suuuper busy with other fun and creative projects, like my continued PR and media copywriting, contributions to Coyote + Oak magazine out of San Luis Obispo, as well as Locale Magazine 's newest San Francisco addition. I have to admit that while these other (paying) jobs keep me busy and on my toes, I do stop and think about my former life as a fashion and lifestyle blogger, and how I miss the creative outlet. To be able to write about whatever topic I choose is certainly a gift. Writing is also therapeutic for me--this blog is like a friend. Like the kind you can call up anytime, talk about the deep stuff and then mention this new conditioner you tried...and then switch back to the meaning of lif...

Shoe closet love.

I will be the first to stand up and admit that I have a fabulous husband. Not only is he smart, funny, creative and patient, but he's pretty darned hot too! I still consider us newlyweds (and probably will for quite some time), because we're always doing thoroughly silly stuff for one another--keepin' things fresh, fun and surprising, ya know? Here's one of my fave pics of us, taken a few years ago during our engagement photoshoot. Good times. That being said, I was still simply breath-taken when I came home from a way-too-long day of work and found that my sweet beau had used his furlough day (yes, it's not just a vicious rumor that we have those all over the place in the state of CA) to transform our hall coat closet into none other than a shoe closet . You heard me right... shoe closet = every girl's dream, ya? We don't really use our hall coat closet anyway, living in such a warm southern California city, so I was thrilled to actually put this space to ...

Celebratin' with a GIVEAWAY!

So, on the eve of 2011 something verrrrry exciting happened to Miss H in H (no, it's not baby news, mom, sorry!): I launched the brand spankin' new look of my blog ! Yep, it was pretty landmark-ish and something I had been lookin' forward to for a long, long time. And now that I've pretty much worked out all of the kinks and gotten it down to the way I want it, I feel like it's time to CELEBRATE! And what better way to do that than with a HIGH HEEL GIVEAWAY !? You heard right. High heel giveaway. You'rewelcomeverymuch. I'm so super excited to be givin' away a pair of heels from Jen + Kim for Coloriffics ! These girls have quite a story , which started when they became friends way back in 6th grade (how cute!). Having always been shoe-lovers and fellow fashionistas, Jen and Kim took their love for kicks & fashion and turned it into something big by pairing up with a shoe company called Coloriffics (makers of some of my favorite shoes-- like these love...
