Retro Shoes

I love vintage shoes, but between the heavy wear and narrow fit, I have to indulge my wants with fabulous reproductions. Mary Janes, t-straps, peep toes, low heels. If it looks like it's from the 20s-50s, I'm there! I like to wear them with Victorian jewelry and funky outfit. How do you wear retro heels?

Metallic Shoes

Over a couple of fabulous martinis, becca and I were discussing how many people comment on our metallic shoes. (She has some gold heeled Frye booties and I have low heeled oxfords.) It's like they've never thought of gold or silver as belonging anywhere but on jewelry or a New Year's Eve dress. Not only do they snazz up an everyday jeans and tunic, but they can be used as party shoes too. (Yes, I would wear my oxfords to a party. I'm funky like that.) As you can see from my laments of craving below, metallics are my perfect shoe color.Top: silver cutout wedge, Jeffrey Campbell at Urban Outfitters $128 (Want!)

gold pump, Shellys of London at Mod Cloth $94.99
Bottom: pewter unicorn heels, Jeffrey Campbell "Michelle" at Nordstrom $119.95 (Still want!)
