spring preview: luna rosa

Originally uploaded by shoedish

With the Spring/Summer 2009 fashion show season rounding up, it’s time to take another glance at what the future holds in shoe. As we all gear up for another cold winter season, shoedish can’t help but wonder about the warm weather that is just around the corner and these pretty kitten wedge sandals from Luna Rosa are helping us to realize the future fantasy. Purple patent teams up with gold and silver metallics to create an edgy spring look and the crisscross straps at the quarter create an intricately woven design. Here’s the chic and sophisticated version of the jellie shoe that tried and tried, in vain, to make a comeback a few season back. We think this reinterpretation has a little bit better of a chance. What to look for for spring: More kitten wedges and tapered heels pair with sleek lines and silhouettes while color and shine will do all the talking. These sandals from Luna Rosa will be available in late February 2009.

‘opinions please’ friday: marc jacobs

Originally uploaded by shoedish

Talk about retro-chic! Here’s a mellow - or not so much - yellow kitten heel peep-toe pump from Marc Jacobs that looks like it was pulled straight out of the 80s. Excuse me Marc, but Tiffany called and she says she wants her sole back. These look like something you’d pull out of a dollar or euro store, garage sale, or from that bizarre penny saver store downtown. We love Marc Jacobs, but we’re not feeling this yellow submarine. We can’t lie about our distaste for the kitten heel, but this shoe is committing all sorts of shoe sins. Thoughts? Opinions? If we see Lindsay Lohan wearing these with lacey ankle socks and a pair of leggings from her personalized collection with a low slung belt, we may projectile vomit all over our mary janes…”honest to blog”.

Payless kitten wedge

Originally uploaded by shoedish

These kitten wedge sandals from Payless are a perfect addition to your summer shoedrobe. Get them during the Payless BOGO sale and you’ll have even more reasons to embellish your vamps. We love the oversized turquoise brooch on the vamp and even though we sometimes gossip behind kitten heels back, we actually like the idea of a mid-sized wedge for casual weekend walking. These heels can give you a little height, while managing to keep it comfy. Additionally, the foot bed is padded, so that makes things even more bearable. Receive free shipping when you spend $50 on your next purchases at Payless online. BOGO now!!!
