Shoe Splurge Saturday

One of the trends that seems to be getting some talk is Flatforms. Aka Flat Platforms. I'm not so sure how I feel about these...I have found a few cute ones that I'm adoring ( well those ones by Chloé) but has anyone tried them? Are they comfortable to walk in? Anyone seen any really colorful ones - ex colorblocking? Let me know :) Enjoy!

You know what I really love in a good shoe? A big ol' chunky heel. Great for walking. Looks super fun. And doesn't get stuck in cracks between boards or stone. Fabulous. So here's some of my current favs. P.S. my friend Jane over at Jane's Addiction has the Le Chateau ones in black.....totally jealous!

1. Bebel Textured Cotton Platform Pumps, Charlotte Olympia was $930 now $465!
2. Leather Strap Cork Heel Sandal in coral, Le Chateau $80
3. Olivia Jade Cork Plaited Sandals, Topshop $100

4. El Penon Platforms, Anthropologie was $ 638 now $450!





What are your thoughts on chunky heels? Love em? Hate em? Never tried em?

Has anyone else been into Aldo lately?! They have sooooo many lovely summer shoes, I was basically bursting with excitement in-store! Here are my top picks. All of which I can't justify purchasing ;) Enjoy!










Sparkly Source
1. Ellington in blue misc., Aldo $75
2. Dyle in light yellow, Aldo $100
3. Ellington in red, Aldo $75
4. Happer in natural, Aldo $80
5.  Alapai in taupe, Aldo $100
6. Heng in cognac, Aldo $60






These shoes are all so lovely! I can't decided! haha, actually I think I'm definitely going into Aldo this morning when the mall opens to try on the Ellington. Not sure what color I'd want - they are all fabulous. Normally, I'd say BLUE in a heartbeat, but I have blue espadrilles from AE already. Maybe the red or yellow. Mmmm. Prob red? Advice????












Xxxo,

****UPDATE*****

Tried these on in store - GORGEOUS! The yellow is more of a mustard yellow and the red is a coral red. Very comfortable to walk in. Downside: they get marked up really easy. The material is more like a suede and the yellow ones (which I like the most - in person) get scuffed pretty easy, and if your toes are even a bit dirty, they leave a easily seen toe stain on the shoes. Tres sad. I may go back for the coral/red ones (because dirt would be less visible in comparison to the mustard yellow) but I'm still thinking about it.

Color-blocking is becoming very popular lately and I am totally loving it. In general, I like to wear a lot of color and have a lot of it in my closet. I haven't been able to find my perfect color-blocking outfit yet, but I will! So for now, I'm going to fantasize in color-blocking my imaginary shoe collection, detailed below ;) Enjoy!










Sparkly Sources:
1. SS11 Striped Wedges, Pierre Hardy $?
2. Color-block canvas and patent leather wedge sandals, Pierre Hardy $630
3. Pirate Patchwork Patent-leather and nubruck brogues, Vivienne Westwood $420
4. Camilla Tubular Platform Sandals, Opening Ceremony $545






Just as an extra, I thought I'd throw in my favorite color-blocking outfit, worn by Camilla Bella at the Gucci and RocNation Pre-Grammy Brunch. Isn't this a fabulous color combination? The cut of the pants could be better tho, haha.



















How do you feel about color-blocking? Love it ? Hate it?  What are your favorite colors to pair together?

Oh, Saturday mornings, how I love you. I usually love them most in the summer when it is warm and lazy, but I will settle for a cold winter one, once and a while. Unfortunately, that day is NOT today - I'm off to a gilding workshop, to learn how to gild me some objects. Hopefully, I'll get to sneak away for an hour for my usual Saturday morning dance class. You lovelies, on the other hand, can lazy around and ponder the loveliness of classic ballet flats. Inspired by dance classes? Definitely. Enjoy!
