New Shoes.

anyway, i got these for $12 the other day!

the sides are this teal velvety fabric and the toes and heels and straps are embossed leather. pretty!

although I think mine are a little darker than these, so comfy though - like slippers!

ohmyGOD I want to go shoe shopping so badly. I've never owned wedges (!) but find myself loving Marianna's and Tehresa's upthread. The right wedges are remarkably solid and practical! I want something like this for summer:

Though I also kind of want something like this:

because I am clearly mental and Mtl fashion has gotten into my brain but not erroded twee-part + I would be 6 feet tall.

sadly the palm tree print has been discontinued.

ive been searching for the perfect pair of red maryjanes for years now and I finally found them on ebay. italian leather, tie up strap. very 70s.

here's the catch - since that 70s show is done, fox has been selling off the shows wardrobe and props. these shoes i bought were worn by 'donna' in the school prom/tornado episode where donna and eric hang out with aerosmith. seems i have the same size 'giants feet' as laura prepon. theyre in good condition and have no marks expect for 'DONNA' written on the soles. can I still wear them or should they be encased in bulletproof glass and adored from afar?

Got a couple of weeks ago. Breaking in nicely, but the laces are too long (which is weird when wearing 16s).

i want these, but in black instead of dark brown (strap color remains the same). if anyone wants to loan me $800, i'd be very grateful.

The maker of those red wedges and assorted similar designs is "Bronx." They're a sort of average shoe-ghetto level of brand but they do good work here and there and I really love my bronzey leather version of those heels.

I have a pair of motorcycle/engineers boots, but they don't have nearly enough buckles on them. Or go high enough.

i don't normally like steve m@adden but i'm into these:

Caution re the rope platforms above: the heel might jam your poor toe junction mercilessly into that thong. Also, the back strap doesn't buckle, it only has elastic, and that elastic WILL wear out. Granted it's only like $5 to have replaced but y'know, it's just one more thing.

Blue fishtail-y wedges are purdy!

I'm hgoing to pick up some brown slip-on Vans for summer soon, I did see some nice perforated leather ones in NYC but none in my size and colour preference :(
