Here are five of the six of us from our TV group. Jill is missing as she had a class reunion,
and she was also missed by us that evening. We had a sleep over and Kris treated us all to matching zebra PJ’s. The afternoon was spent sipping fufu drinks by the pool and the late hours sharing stories. Anyway these Zebra print shoes reminded me of the evening. Black and white is always good, but even better with a touch of my favorite color, RED. I could easily see any of us six wearing these Charles David Prickly Print Pumps (available from Zappos.com) at some point in time.

Hi, I bought these gold suede flats from Zappos and they are absolutely beautiful in person, but I can’t for the life of me figure out what to wear them with! I’ve never owned ballet flats before, and certainly not gold ones, so I was hoping you could help me. Maybe a post about them? Thank you!!! ~ Kayleigh
Readers, can you help Kayleigh?

I was shopping at ShopKo last week, and just couldn’t resist these Nike Slides that were on sale for $14.99. They only come in full sizes, and since I’m a size 7 1/2, I first opted for the size 8, but that was too big/loose. The size 7 fits perfectly.
I’ve been wanting a new pair of athletic slides to replace my Adidas slides that I ruined while painting.
Now today I see these exact same Nike Benassi Women’s Slides are on sale for only $9.99 from Sports Authority! Regularly $18.99. Maybe I should invest in a 2nd pair! I highly recommend them as I wore them today and they are quite comfortable with and without socks. I’ll probably wear them without socks, but my daughter insists that it’s “in” to wear white socks with them.

The latest issue of Glamour Magazine (6/08) tells us to “Dress up your look with high heels. Chunky or platform styles balance out cropped-length pants.” And they featured these L.A.M.B. Women’s Gypsy Heel in Brown, $349.99 from Heels.com. I like them, I just wish the heel height and the price tag weren’t so high!

Mary Wales Loomis makes her own shoes, and I have to admit they look pretty impressive! She even wrote a book Make Your Own Shoes detailing exactly how to make a pair of shoes from start to finish. Seems to have good reviews on Amazon, if you’re interested. Anyone else ”made their own shoes”? If so, please email us a picture to share!

I’m wondering if it’s time for me to make a change in my shoe styles. Seems as if I usually end up buying pretty much the same style and heel height. This Tenara from Nine West (in Black, Bronze & Gold) this may be the one. I like the chain ornament, as it really dresses it up, and the metallic covered high heel adds to the look.
