New Year's Eve

It’s New Year’s Eve!  The very last day of 2013.  I hope there’s a party on your schedule for tonight!  Even if there’s not, you have to close the year in party shoes!

YOU JUST DO.  IT’S A RULE.  WEAR THEM WITH PAJAMAS IF YOU MUST.

So!   Let’s get you some party shoes then!

Who says shorter heels can’t be fun?  The Camille by Coach is a pointed toe D’Orsay with suede at the toe and glitter at the heel!  (That’s a 3.25-inch heel, by the way.)  The wine color is so elegant, isn’t it?  Pick up a pair at Bloomingdales for $198.

I love the lines on the E0028 by E! Live From the Red Carpet.  The interplay of the gray and the black, swooping around your foot, leaving cutouts (I especially love the tiny cutouts up by the heel!).  That’s a 4.5-inch heel, by the way, but there’s a three-quarter-inch platform to help out.  Yours for $88 from Macy’s.

Ooh, beads!  The Akira by ABS by Allen Schwartz is a beautiful peacock color, too—unexpected among the blacks and reds of the holiday.  The heel is 4.5 inches, and there’s an inch-high platform underneath the peep toe.  But the bow and the dangling beads—those make this pair special.  Also available in white if you’re going for a snow queen vibe; your choice for $100 from DSW.

Ooh, groovy.  The Madame by Steve Madden has features that, granted, could have gone horribly wrong in the hands of the wrong designer.  But here, the chunky clear heel and shiny gold upper feel more mod than unfortunate 70s throwback.  These would be especially nice with pants, I think!  Also available in black, but they’re not nearly as fun as the gold.  Find them at Zappos for $78.

All set?  Happy New Year!
