When I went shopping last week, I didn’t have time to scope through all the shoes on sale at Maurices. But yesterday I did! And I came away with these Donut Gladiator Sandals for $5.50 (originally $26) and these Tyra stretch croco boots for $9.99 (originally $39).
The sandals remind of a pair of “Yo-Yo’s” I had back in junior high school! And what’s even more ironic is that I recently received this email from Samme:
Hi, Just how old are you!! 
Do you remember Yo Yo shoes in the mid 1970s?(shoes with holes in the heels) I’ve not seen or heard of them since. I did a search for Yo Yo’s a few years ago and just came up with some expensive designer brand (no holes!) Thanks for your reply. Love the site. Found source for knockoff Uggs for my toddler!
Well, I’ve been 29 for quite a few years now. I think it was the early 80’s when I had my Yo-Yo’s. Steve Madden makes a similar style with their Champyun sandals…
- A retro-chic sandal done on a sculptural wooden platform.
- Leather upper.
- Lightly padded insole.
- Wood platform with donut hole wedge.
- Rubber sole.
- On sale for $41.40 from 6pm.com (originally $79.95)
And these Madden Girl Women’s Lamontt Donut Hole Wedge Sandals (on sale for $51.30 from Amazon)…
Anyone else know of some cool sandals with “holes in the heels”?

Jason Rubacky’s lovely wife wore Madden Girl Ditta Buckle Boots recently to a holiday party. I love them!
Available at DSW Stores and DSW.com, $59.95 (regularly $80) – I wished I lived near a DSW as these boots would look great to wear this holiday season! I’m jealous of anyone that lives near a DSW store.
Take a ride on the wild side with the Ditta knee-high boot from Madden Girl. With this exciting boot you’ll be stepping out in style.

Melanie has been trying to months to find the cute mary-janes that Leighton Meester as Blair wore in the Gossip Girl “The Ex Files” (Season 2, Episode 4) and has asked for her fellow shoeaholics help on identifying them! Check out Melanie’s Best Face Forward blog for more pictures that can be enlarged for more detail.
If you can recognize the label, please comment on this blog post – Melanie will be most appreciative!
I haven’t been able to pinpoint the exact designer brand myself, but I found a couple of knockoff alternatives…
Madden Girl Doreenn, $49.90 from Zappos.com
RSVP Shelby (shown right), $32.89 from 6pm.com
