Hello! :) This is the second or third blog post this week? :P I am on a roll!! My new year's resolution is to update this blog as much as I can or on a regular basis so that I keep you guys updated and entertained :) Anyway! I was at Shang today and took a trip to True Value (I love hardware and furniture stores!!) and found this supposed clothing compartment and instead turned it into a shoe compartment! Looks way better that way for me :) I did a quick little shoot and here it is! Below are my favorite heels, excluding my faux JC's because I left them in LA :(
Here's the whole rack, which has yet to find a proper place in my room. :)
American Flag Heels from Asian Vogue
Why I love it?
American flag prints are so adorable and they come in my favorite outfit colors (i.e. blue, white and red) :) Not to mention, these look exactly like a pair of Jeffrey Campbell shoes I saw online. Saved a whole lot on this pair! :)
What to pair it with?
White top (sleeveless polo, muscle shirt, polo, plain shirt), denim jeans, oversized black bag, and simple accessories :) Remember that the shoes are a statement in itself, don't overdo your accessories :)
Leopard Print Wedges from H&M
My tita got these for me as a Christmas gift last year and I remember seeing them and feeling my eyes widen and my heart start to pump faster. Haha! These shoes LITERALLY excited me. It was love at first sight and I think my tita felt that if I didn't get these shoes right then and there, I'd die. So she was kind enough to pick it up for me as I had drained most of my shopping money earlier already! :)
Why I love this?
Leopard print heels were a must have last 2011, and these are the most perfect ones you'll ever have! The heel is just right around 2-2 1/2 inches, and they're wedges, which means not all of your weight rests on a narrow heel, making this pair perfect to walk around in. Other than that, the kind of leopard print is the nice one, there's a tacky kind of leopard print, and I advise you guys to shy away from that. :)
What to wear it with?
Do not wear a leopard printed top with it!! I beg of you, whoever you are reading this, don't overdo it :( Instead, wear a plain top in whichever color you prefer, and whatever bottom you prefer.. You can actually wear these with shorts because of the heel of the shoe being a wedge and it not being too high :) You've got a wide variety of choices :)
Sparrow Printed Mary Jane Platforms from Seventh Heaven Shop
I am a HUGE FAN of Miu Miu footwear especially the line of mary jane platforms they came out with. This sparrow pair is my most absolute favorite of the bunch and when I had seen my friend selling an identical for a much cheaper price, I seized the opportunity to own these babies.
Why I love this?
The print and color is so feminine, it makes you feel beautiful just putting it on. It's also a head turner! I've received so many compliments while wearing these shoes, once from Georgina Wilson, even! Haha :) That was one of my favorite memories. These shoes have brought me so much luck :)
What to wear it with?
This is the most feminine I can do! Haha. I actually wore this to a meeting with a client and used them while in the mall too! Wore it with a loose silk top, blazer, bodycon skirt and my Gucci! :) Felt really classy in this ensemble :)
Black Wedges with String Detail from Parisian
I'm not bragging but... I have this ability to predict trends.. and I bought this pair waaay before people were going crazy over these! I love how the string detail in front reminds me of a military blazer, and how it's so masculine yet feminine at the same time :)
Why I love it?
This pair is sooo versatile! Whenever I wanna go out in heels, I don't have to think about what I wanna wear so it can match the heels, anything I do just does and it saves a lot of time!
What to wear it with?
Mary Jane Clogs from Jellybean
You would not believe how beautiful the shoes from Jellybean are!! They're my favorite local brand when it comes to heels :) You can expect up to date styles from this store and they come at affordable prices! Nothing over 2,000 I think :)
Why I love this?
It looks so fresh and clean! It's easy to pair with daintier outfits because it's not the super white kind of white, which you should only wear for graduation.. Instead it's this creamy kind of white that makes your feet look nicer, if you know what I mean :)
What to wear it with?
I've worn this with my more nautical outfits, and they look gorge! Also, you can check my Sleeping Beauty post and see what I wore this with :)
Glitter Platforms from Prima Donna
I just received this the other day from Ciaeli as one of her 11 weeks 11 gifts gift for me :") The sweetest I swear! I just pointed these out while we were in the more, next thing I know she's poking me holding out the paper bag of the store with these shoes inside :) Hihi.
Why I love this?
Yet another Jeffrey Campbell inspired pair!! I'm a big fan of JC's and I am also equally obsessed with finding replicas of their shoes!! Also, glitter shoes are very in this season, and this is just the right amount of glitter which you can use on dressy and casual events :)
What to wear this with?
I'd pair these with a cream top, a circle skirt, and some silver accessories :)
Grey and Yellow Color Block Wedges from Parisian
I was intending to buy Rajo for Parisian shoes, when I copped this pair.. Instead, I turned my head and saw these babies and thought just how interesting they were! They're beautiful, but really painful :( The strap which holds your toes in is really thin so your toes burn a bit but I think that's just cause they were new when I wore them. I have yet to wear them again and test the comfort of this pair :)
Why I love it?
It looks simple at first, but the pop of color at the back is so surprising and refreshing.. It makes this pair all the more beautiful and interesting :)
What to wear it with?
I wore this with a loose top (tucked in a bit of the shirt so it would look slouchy), tattered jeans (cuffed at the bottom), and a bib necklace :)
Aztec Printed Wedges from Dollhouse
Printed heels?? WIN. I don't really have much words to say why I find this beautiful cause it's pretty obvious! They're super comfy to walk in too! Don't mind the sticker, since they're new and haven't been worn out yet, haha :)
Why I love it?
The print on the heel is so pretty and I wish I could rip it out of the shoe and wear it! Haha. I don't have anything quite like it and it'll be a good addition to my growing collection :)
What to wear it with?
You can wear this with jeans, skirts, and dresses that are plain :) The deal with shoes like this as I said is earlier is that they're statement pieces and adding other statement pieces will only make it look too crazy. :)
These shoes are only a part of my collection, and hopefully I'll have more soon! :) I'll keep you all posted :) Tweet me @HelloCarliexx for any questions, suggestions and comments!
I don’t even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was great. I do not know who you are but definitely you are going to a famous blogger if you are not already ;) Cheers!
