Spring has sprung

Spring has sprung--well, almost. Really your spring shoe shopping is what shoulda sprung by now and it's mandatory that you stock up on heels that are full of the following:
1) height: do not be afraid of platforms this season--even if you're a taller gal, these spring trends will make those legs look long & lean!
2) color: bright and vibrants are in, in addition to the neutral earthy tones
3) frill and detail: woven wedges and gladiators take the stage once again

As usual, I've got a few top picks to make the browsing a bit easier on you (and to fulfill my shoe obsession). Ooo, I'm so excited to share!

Nordstrom shares their spring pick, the 'Redondo' Sandal and I'm glad they did! That yummy berry patent with the double ankle strap covers your love of spring color & detail
nude footwear's Fleur Tashas pump also provides an amazing color boost--and ya just can't go wrong with a pretty peep-toe, right?
Steve Madden's 'Tuscan' Sandal is at a good price, and makes wearing a traditional gladiator sandal a bit more exciting. Check out all of that gold strappy goodness, cute stud detail and hot wooden textured wedge to finish it off. Whew!
Unleash that wild side with a little animal print--very hip right now. The wraparound pattern on these babies is gorgeous and funky and will turn heads when you walk the mall (or anywhere, really). The more height and texture, the better! Scope it out for yourself: Sam Edelman 'Katrice' Wedge Sandal

Ok, last up...every girl has to dream, right? Well, I certainly am no exception to that rule--I can drool over way-too-expensive shoes whenever I want to! Doesn't mean I'm gonna make the purchase, just browsing! I'm giving you personal permission to do the same. If nothing else, let Giuseppe Zanotti's wild Women's Pump inspire your spring shoe selections for 2010!

Happy spring!

  1. Love the Fleur Tashas pumps - gorgeous! I get nervous about the ankle straps on the others...I feel like they'll make my short legs look shorter?!?

Lazy days

It's the end of the week, I'm slowly unpacking from my week-long vacation to my hometown and family, and utterly enjoying my last few days off. Not only have I managed to eat 3 large meals a day everyday this last week, but I also have developed a terrible addiction to words with friends on my iPhone. Help me! Ahhh, but it's days like this that I just wanna curl up with a good book + some of my favorite high heels for fashion inspiration... xoxo, holly in heels

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 ...

One hot heel giveaway!

Well readers...it's your lucky stinkin' summer because I have yet another giveaway! This time we're givin' away HIGH HEELS! Yep, it's maybe my most favorite-est thing in the whole wide world, and KM2 shoes is making our high-heel dreams come true. I have to say these heels are fab-yoo-lus (especially since I recently welcomed KM2's gorgeous 'Kristin' heels into my own high heel collection!) . They are true to size, extremely comfy, and have that unique design that's truly eye-catching! You can purchase KM2 shoes online or in stores near you . I love the story of this company too -- three sisters founded KM2, Megan, Katelyn and Mattison Gelber, after growing up with two very fashion-forward parents. Their mid-western roots and life experiences in New York & Los Angeles have caused these ladies to develop a unique style, rooted in nostalgia, with an edgy flare! I asked them a few questions about to help us all get to know them better and loved...
