Holly in Heels

Get your wallets ready, and your credit cards primed - the SJP Collection by Sarah Jessica Parker is a new collection of shoes, launching exclusively at Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com on February 28 ! Eek! With an exclusive reflection of Miss Parker's personal style, this Italian-crafted line of shoes grabs styles that you'll want to get your hands on ASAP this season. Take a look at the rich colors of the line - coral, mint, teal and pink, to classic colors including purple, red and navy - those which Sarah Jessica has often said are "the new neutral." I love love love that there is a story behind each name of a pair of SJP shoes. You'll of course find the “Carrie”, and even the “Maud”, named after legendary designer Maud Frizon. And if you're worried about heel heights, fret no further - the collection of twenty-five shoes fits the shoe prefs of every lady, at every age. The price point is something to adore, too, ranging from $195 to just under $500...

This spring I'm loving the sandals that are splashing the scene. The cage sandal with straps galore, the classic pointed toe flat that seems to be always on-trend, and last but not least...my new fave: the block heel. I think it's really the best of both the wedge and the high heel world - you get the leg-lengthening heigh of a heel, with all of the comfort of a wedge. It's clearly a block party in my closet. Perf! And Dolce Vita has designed this oh-so affordable block heel sandal called the ' FOXIE ' - with a fab 2 1/2" heel, all leather lining and outsole, and an adorable black heel zip-up and buckle detail. Two colors that will go with every denim legging and pencil skirt, even with your favorite springtime dress - you may have to get them both (wink wink!).  Super duper cute, and a MUST this season! Enjoy the block heel and grab this style while it's h-o-t. xoxo, holly in heels

Essential to every girl's closet is a good pair of sneakers. I know, it may seem odd coming from a girl who has "heels" as part of her nickname, but I'm assuming you all have a solid pair of heels and are just in need of a few alternatives. When it's one of those rainy, cloudy, jeans n' tee sorta days, then I will be the first to admit that I don't want to throw on my suede heels or my platform wedges. Oh no no, I want to slip into something a little more comfy and friendly - but not skip the style. That's where the fashion sneaker comes in: the one shoe you need now (if you don't have it already!). Vans, Steve Madden and Vince are just a few brands that have carefully mastered this fashion, too. With some fantastic slip-ons, and great textures like pony hair, textile and metallics, you're sure to find the perfect fashion sneaker that fits your sass and style. Here's a peek at my top 3: 1.

I love Target. I mean, who doesn't? Where else can you get a re-stock on your paper towels, pick up a birthday card, an adorable cake stand for that new cupcake recipe you just tried out... and pick up an adorable pair of under-20-dollar shoes?! I know you agree. So every time Target pulls off another one of their designer collaborations, I just fall more and more in love with the big-box store. This month, Target is teaming up with designer Peter Pilotto , which has been on my stylish radar since last September. Launching in stores and online on February 9th (just a few days away, hooray!), this color-clad collection is at a friendly price range of about $14-$80. Preview the collection here ! I love the dashes of yellow, poppy, turquoise and lime green amidst the geometric black and white shapes on each piece from this fashion-forward designer. Busy patterns and stripes all accentuate the clean cut lines of Peter Pilotto's dresses and jumpers. You'll find women'...

One of this generation's most stylish actresses, Miss Zooey Deschanel, is making headlines this week. That gorgeous, blue-eyed brunette is slowly convincing me (and the rest of the world) that she can quite possibly do it all. Not only does this doll sing, act, and show off her sophisticated humor in every interview we see, but she's now teamed up with designer Tommy Hilfiger on a new clothing collaboration! Deschanel and Hilfiger found their dream team beat when the two met and started chatting on the topic of vintage clothing. This "new girl" to the fashion scene is now ready to make her Macy's debut on April 14 with the retro-inspired line of 14 dresses, affectionately called To Tommy From Zooey . The price point is friendly, at $98 to $199, and will eventually expand on tommy.com and Tommy stores in North America, Europe and Japan one week later, along with Deschanel-designed jewelry and handbags, too.

...I can tell you what I would do! Throw it down on these navy + white striped Penelope Espadrille Wedges from Target (pronounced tar-jjjjjay in this case)! These slip-on wedges are the perfect first shoe for your spring wardrobe - an ease into the new season of colors, patterns and styles. Yours truly, in fact, has them in multiple colors, but the stripes are next on my list! With a 3" heel and a cushioned insole, these darling espadrilles will have you hopping around town in comfort and in style. And 30 bucks means you just can't go wrong! Go go go, I'll meet you at Target! xoxo, holly in heels

"Where chic is effortless and cool costs less." - loooove the motto of Sole Society , one of my go-to shops and brands for high quality shoes, handbags and accessories. It's sorta their thing to give shoppers amazing prices, affordable styles and still pull off a chic look around town. That's always been sorta my thing too - I'm an everyday kinda gal, who doesn't make six figures (yet!), so why should I drool over high-designer shoes, when there are so many affordable options out there under $200! Plus, spend $70 on heels, that gives me $30 for a cute new accessory, $50 for some killer boots, and maybe $60 for a brand new handbag. My logic is right on, I think you'll agree. So when Sole Society has an end-of-season sale, I jump right on it! Right now, they have dozens and dozens of on-trend boots + booties for a whopping 50-60% OFF ! Feast your eyes on the sexy, sassy 'DES' ankle bootie - ready for a hot, tiny dress and a night out on the t...
