AllyG: I finally got my lazy ass in gear and organized a shoe porn collection for your Monday pleasure. Porn and pleasure in the same sentence. Never thought I’d be writing that kind of blog. Ok, I totally did!! L-A is so happy I am heading up Monday’s post so that she can have a few more Colt 45’s while watching the Grammy’s.
My friend, and loyal reader, Lisa, sent in a selection of shoes from her collect. Shall we get right into it?
Note: I know L-A does the shoe porn posts all neat and tidy BUT I HAVE SPENT THREE HOURS ON THIS AND CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT HOW SHE DOES IT. In summary, I suck. Here’s your effing shoes people.
P.S. Love the collection, Lisa! I’d steal everything except for the Ed Hardy’s. We need to talk about those. Immeds.
Madden Girl Microfibre Bootie – Shoe Company – not yet worn (AllyG: NOT YET WORN???!! How much do you want for them? Sell or be maimed!)
Betsey Johnson flip flops – Winners
Blow Fish red patent flats – The Shoe Company. They brighten up every outfit.
Cause & Effect pink tweed pumps – The Shoe Company. My friend says these look like a couch. Maybe, but I still love them.
Collection Portio pink satin slingbacks – John David. These shoes’ claim to fame is that they were worn by a friend at a wedding in Italy.
Ed Hardy Running Shoes – aka Douche Shoes – I can’t explain these. I bought them in Vegas. Perhaps they should have stayed in Vegas. (AllyG: Oh, Lisa. No. Seriously. INTERVENTION)
Havaianas flip flop – Dominican Republic. In the interest of full disclosure, I cannot find mine. These are my daughters. They are the most comfortable flip flops I have ever owned. (AllyG: I also love Havaianas, although, I associate them with being a massive. massive pregnant lady. They were the only shoes that would fit for months 7,8 and 9 of my pregnancy)
Guess Leopard Print Slingbacks – The Shoe Company. I love that the toes are so pointy but the heels are relatively low.
London Fog Black and White nearly flat wedges. The Bay, London, ON .Great summer work shoes.
J. Renee two-tone red pumps – John David. These seem terribly grown up. I have worn them to pieces.
Sasha Too white lace ups – Classic Shoes, Barrington Place Shops.
Flojos yellow leather flip flops – Shoe fanatic. Island-tastic
Falachi – Tri-Coloured pumps, The Shoe Company. Incredibly comfortable. Go with everything.
Naughty Monkey pumps — Shoe Fanatic. These give me a blister on top of my foot every single time, but it’s worth it because they make me so tall.
Felted Wool Firefly slippers – I made these. They are available to order!
Impo polka dot kitten heel mule – Clasic Shoes. These are great with almost everything in the summer.
J. Renee Red Leopard Pumps – John David – best job interview shoes ever (AllyG: LOVE, LOVE, LOOOOOOVE these!)
Expression patent peep toe pumps – The Bay
Steve Madden black patent, red strap peep toe – Winners. $27.50 ‘Nuf said.
Vis A Vis silver strappy sandal – Shoe Fanatic. I have never worn these. They were on sale and I fell for the “You could even wear these with jeans” sales pitch. (AllyG: I fall for that all the time as well.)
Unisa Strappy Flower sandal – Shoe Fanatic. Purchased for a cruise. Maybe someone will get married and I can wear them again.
Keds – The Shoe Company. Great dog walking shoes.
Miz Mooz wedge zip-up boots — Town Shoes. These are practical but the buttons make them a little special.
Xhilaration blue plaid flats – Target, Port Huron, Michigan. I love Target and I love a flat with a pointy toe.
AllyG: Ok. I have a whole new level of respect for L-A after posting those photos. I don’t know how bitch does it without hitting the gin hard. Oh. Maybe that’s her trick. Thanks so much, Lisa! These shoes are fab! Keep the submissions coming, we’re welcoming both ladies’ and gents’ shoes!
L-A: Either it’s the gin or I have the patience of a saint. I’ll let you guess which it is.
I’m glad to see that Lisa knows that her Ed Hardy shoes are douche shoes. That doesn’t exactly make it okay, but it a sign that she’s on the road to recovery. I love the buttons on the boots. I was eyeing buttony boots like that when I was boot shopping on my birthday, but didn’t try any on. Mostly because I was boot shopping in only one store and wasn’t ready to get depressed that they don’t fit my “athletic” calves/commit to paying over $200 for the Fly London boots they sell at Comfort Zone. Anyway, golf claps to Lisa’s shoes. Since Ally did the shoe porn for me, I’m going to go take a nap to get ready for tonight’s Grammy’s. (No polka category? Walter Ostanek was robbed!)
