January Spring


What is this?  Have you seen the forecast for this weekend?  It’s going to be 60 degrees!  Not even halfway through January, and it’s going to be 60 degrees.  I hope your plans for the next two days include enjoying this freak heat wave, and in the spirit, I give you a few spring-inspired shoes to get you in the mood!


The Justpretend by Nine West is a cheery pink patent D’Orsay flat (well, almost flat—there’s a three-quarter-inch heel), topped at the peep toe with an ombre flower.  Adorable!  Find them at Zappos for $85.


The Carlina by Ted Baker is a simple peep toe, sure, but look at the print: it’s all flowers and rosebuds and dragonflies and moths!  Perfect.  It’s got a 5.5-inch heel and a 1.25-inch platform, and can be yours for $115 from 6pm.


The Park Lane is like wearing spring on your feet: the bright blue of a sky; flowers popping up all over.  (The net mixed in there is a nice touch, don’t you think?)  The outer is suede, and it has a 2.5-inch stacked heel.  Yours for $119 from Irregular Choice


I’m in love, I’m in love, and I don’t care who knows it!  The Suede Cutout Bootie by Menbur is so lovely: a suede upper with elaborate cutouts up the front, which is covered in a field of petaled flowers and rosebuds (see then hidden under the open ones?), a tonal three-quarter-inch platform, a 4.75-inch heel, and lacing.  Also available in nude, but it lacks the joy of this corally-red.  Find them at DSW for $150.

Okay, so maybe you won’t be going hiking in these this weekend.  But when the snows come back, you’ll be happy to have these little touches of spring in your closet!
