The Cutest Baby Girl Shoes Ever

Posted by kim on March 16, 2010

With both my sister and my sister-in-law are pregnant with baby girls (in July and May respectively), I have a feeling I’m going to be seeing A LOT of baby girl clothes and shoes soon.  In fact, I’m hosting a baby shower for my sister-in-law over Easter weekend, and I got these Robeez Flitty Flight MJ Infant Soft Sole slip-ons to give her (available from Zappos.com).  They are soooo cute. The picture above does not do them justice on just how cute them are!

Then yesterday my athletic tom-boy of a sister comes over to show me these Converse Kids Chuck Taylor First Star Core Crib infant shoes (also available from Zappos.com).  Again, the picture above does not do them justice on just how cute these baby high-tops are!  The picture should show the other side of the shoe that dons the star Converse All-Star emblem.  Even the box is cute with a recycle icon on the back saying “This box deserves another chance to hold a pair of Converse shoes. Please recycle.”  And then it’s followed by “Box made in Vietnam” which made me chuckle.

There you have it -the cutest baby shoes for girls – at least for today. :-)

Shoes from Sex and the City 2 Movie

Posted by kim on December 28, 2009

WeLikeFashion.com released pictures of Sarah Jessica Parker playing Carrie Bradshaw in the new Sex and the City movie due out next year. Carrie’s shoes from the first SATC movie were (and still are) a huge hit.

Here’s my take on what shoes Carrie is wearing, from left to right. Please correct me if you think or know otherwise – thanks!

1. I’m pretty sure these are Christian Louboutin Leopard Pumps.  I can’t tell if hers are peep-toe or not, so they could also be Christian Louboutin Pigalle Pony Fur Pumps. But I think they definitely have the signature CL red sole.

2. These look similar to Christian Louboutin Cap-Toe T-Strap d’Orsay pumps, but the reference sites I found all seem to be replica CL’s.  My guess is that at least one of her pairs of shoes will have been designed especially for the movie and will not be made available to the public until after the movie is a hit. They may even be Chanel, as Chanel is highly known for cap-toes.

3. These are definitely Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Sneakers.

Converse All Star Core OX (shown right), $45 from Zappos.com

Converse All Star Leather Ox, $62 from Zappos

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Scratched Leather Ox in Charcoal/Black, $70 from Zappos

Converse (Product) Red Chuck Taylor All Star African Canvas Ox, $50 from Zappos (traditional black with signature top red eyelets and (PRODUCT) RED footbed. 5% of price goes to The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

They look like one of the above traditional black Converse All Stars, but could possibly be the Chuck Taylor All Star Double Tongue Ox or even Converse Chuck Taylor Sequined Sneakers ($85 from Nordstrom).

Make Your Own Shredded Converse

Posted by kim on October 9, 2009

I don’t think I could bring myself to spend $128 on these Shredded Converse Chucks. Classic all star chucks ripped and washed to give them a shredded, vintage look. Available in Navy, Off White &/or Black from FreePeople.com.

Even if I did like the look, one could easily make their own “shredded” look – NY Shoe Spy tells us exactly how to by using a pair of old Converse shoes.  One could even buy a brand new spankin’ pair of Converse All Star Chuck Taylors for only $39.90 from BuyAndWalk.com and invest the 20 minutes of time to save almost $100 bucks!
