St. Patrick's Day

Monday is St. Patrick’s Day!  The day that everyone is a wee bit Irish, and drinks green beer, and eats cabbage.  Hooray!

I am actually legit Irish (a full quarter, baby!), so I hereby deem these shoes St. Pat’s appropriate.


The Goulding by Nine West is the perfect, shiny shade of green!  But what struck me when I found them is the cutout on the side.  Usually in a half D’Orsay the cut-out side is on the inside of the foot, but here it’s on the outside!  Unusual.  The heel is 4.5 inches and it’s also available in solid black and a graphic black with white at the toe; your choice for $40 from 6pm.


The Some Nights by Luichiny is so fun!  I love how the green faux suede of the upper stretches onto the cork wedge in these bold lines.  And the wedge is sizable (two inches in the front and five at the heel), so there’s plenty of room to show off the stripes!  Also, I heart the large ankle strap and buckle.  Available in white, black, and brown as well; find them at Zappos for $85.


This green flat is simplicity with attitude.  The pointed toe, the nude trim around the foot, and of course the studs!  It’s the square studs that add that little something special.  Also available in blue, yellow, purple, and nude—take your pick for $20 from Light in the Box.


Yes, St. Pat’s is a work day this year, but the Hannon by Mojo Moxy are both work- and holiday-appropriate!  You guys already know I love Oxford detailing, so it should come as no surprise that I love these.  The upper is made of green and white faux leather, and it features a T-strap and 4.25-inch heel.  Find them at DSW for $35.


St. Pat’s green glitter explosion!  The Viva Bordello by Sin City is a whole lotta pump, not for the faint of heart: a six-inch heel and two-inch platform.  (Who says leprechauns need to be tiny, amirite?... what’s that?  Everyone says that?  Never mind.)  I think my favorite part is the green lacing up the front—it finishes it off so nicely.  Yours for $85 from Heels.com.

Happy St. Pat’s, all!
