Bubblicious!

So in one of my various perusals across Etsy, I found these amazing things:
They’re like sunshine and puppies and lollipops and rainbows… this shoe is covered in POM POMS!  Aaaah!

Ahem.

But seriously, I’ve never seen anything like Bubble Shoes before, and there is something so totally fun about wearing pom poms on your feet.  Kudos to designer Karolina Skutel for her genius idea!  I want to wear this particular pair to every summer party.  In fact, this pair is perfectly titled Bubble Sunshine.  The shoe underneath (this and all the others) is an Italian leather peep-toe pump with a 4.7-inch heel and a three-quarter-inch platform, and they’re available for $303.75 (like every pair on the site—keeps it simple!).

Wanna see some others?  Of course you do!
The Bubble Gems is in beautiful shades of purple, green, blue, white, and gray—it sort of reminds me of a garden, with paths of gray and white stones.
Speaking of gardens, the Bubble Ivies has twisting green pom pom vines up the heel and across the shoe, ending with a flower made of two red pom poms and a big purple pom pom over the peep toe.  So cute!
I heart black and white shoes, and the name of this one: the Bubble Chess.  Apt, based on the pattern on the heel, yes?  Plus there are three white pom poms across the peep toe on an otherwise all black shoe.

And, of course, to finish:
Bubble Rainbow!  Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, pink, black!  This is the epitome of fun.  And if you’re worried about how these might look with an outfit, rest assured, they look AWESOME:

EXTRA BONUS: Shoes in the News!

You may have heard a little something about a state senator from Texas who on Tuesday night mounted a for-the-history-books, thirteen-hour filibuster in an attempt to take down a bill that would curtail women's reproductive rights in the state.  She did it in a pair of these beauties:


The Wave Runner 16 by Mizuno is sort of fierce looking, isn't it?  It's a lightweight shoe for a neutral runner, and has some fancy technology inside to help cushion your feet.  Helpful if you'll be standing for an extended period of time!  And apparently Davis is a marathoner, so they're probably also good for, you know, running.  Available in six other color choices as well, but the rouge red/apple green combo is where it's at this week.  Yours for $115 from Amazon (and while you're there, I recommend you read the reviews!).
