OMG Shoes! The Memorial Day Edition

A special Memorial Day “OH-My-God, Shoes!” update! When I found out that Steve Madden is having a BOGO on select styles for Memorial Day, I hopped on over to the site. Because summer is coming up, and I thought some new flats would be perfect for the change in weather.


The Colonial (in black & white)
. You may recall me saying in part 4 of developing my wardrobe palette that I wanted a pair of duo/tri-tone spectators. When I saw these, it was love at first site. I love how the pointed toe makes them a bit more masculine looking.  I think changing the laces out could provide more opportunity and playfulness to the shoe, and they’ll make a great alternative to my black or red flat wearing (too many days a week).


Lonndon (in black leather)
I first saw these when I wrote about sandals for my fantasty trip to Fiji. To be honest, I’ve thought about them a lot since. I’m not a sandal girl typically, so this will be the first pair I own. I’m looking forward to wearing them at work, for a playful and tough nod.  I hope they’re comfortable, and I hope I don’t get self conscious about showing off my feet.

With the promo at Steve Madden, I managed to get both pairs for $84.95. I coupled it with the free shipping promotion code, SMFREESHIP. All in all, I’d say that wasn’t a bad score…

Let us know how they work out? I’m all for great shoes for a steal that you can actually wear without suffering!

Oh my, what heavenly, heavenly shoes! Those sandals are particularly drool-worthy!

P.S. I’m not sure how much of a recent addition it is (I’m sorry, I’m a little out of touch with the blogosphere at the moment!), but I love your tagline ”unveiling your mischevious personae” – how fabulous! :)

I like the sandals, but I’d like them even better with a high heel!

@Denise@Swelle – I definitely will! I’ve had great luck with SM in the past, so I’m hoping things haven’t changed to much…

@Corrine/Frock & Roll – You’re not at all behind, hon! It’s only been up a few weeks.

@WendyB – They would be sexy with a high heel! I’m just glad I can have sexy shoes + still do the filing in them!

@Jennine – You & me both, kitten! There must be a good dozen or so shoes I want on his site at any given time…

I really like the spectators. Not at all my usual style, but they are just so cool. Love these posts!

@dapper kid – The sign of a beautiful shoe– boys and girls alike want to wear them! I found the most gorgeous men’s shoes the other day… sadly only in a men’s 13. So sad!

@nora – Thanks, Nora! I’m looking forward to getting them incorporated into my wardrobe. Vintage styles are so wonderful!

@najeema – I know what you mean about being attracted to shoes not normally ones style! I find myself doing that a LOT lately…

@puglyfeet – You & me both, Pugly! I thought on it for maybe a few hours before I ordered them. They were just perfect!

I love the colonial pair. Too bad I cannot pull them off, my feet are skies without any type of shoes. ^^
