OOOH SHOES!!!!!

You know every girl should be inspired by shoes!! I mean shoes are the be all and end all...

They make you feel sexy, tall, empowered, and fierce all in one. Is there another accessory that is that powerful??? Ahhh nope! And no it is not a purse!! If a shoe is not making your days brighter and your outfits sexier...holla at me for us to go shopping.

For this post I decided to have a little healthy competition between Steve Madden and BCBG. I like both and the price points are not the same, but let's compare style!!
SM TRIPLET_BLACK-LEATHER_$64.99 www.stevemadden.com

BCBG FLOWER-EMBELLISHED BOOTIE $295 www.bcbg.com

SM TRINITIE_BLUSH_$79.95 www.stevemadden.com
BCBG ARIANA LEATHER AND ELASTIC BOOTIE $250 www.bcbg.com
BCBG ELLA STRAPPY PLATFORM PUMP $325 www.bcbg.com
BCBG PLEATED LEATHER PUMP $250 www.bcbg.com

BCBG LEATHER AND ELASTIC PUMP $250 www.bcbg.com

SM REGAAL_LEOPARD_$99.95 www.stevemadden.com

SM FRANCINA_BLACK-SUEDE_$59.99 http://www.stevemadden.com/

I love both of these brands for different reasons. However, I can tell the difference in style and marketing!!

Enjoy...

Yuh Cyah Fete W/out These!

Trinidadians love to party. In fact Trinis party hard....dance until the wee hours of the morning. The ladies are challenged with a balancing act of style and comfort. I understand. So for those ladies who cannot purchase new shoes......please purchase these shoe fixer uppers and retard the time for the pain to hit your feet!

Hey, this last item is critical. Some of your shoes will not have the space for the above three, but the strips can be placed at any area of your shoe that has the potential to cause a hurtful friction between your foot and your shoe.

By the way, none of these items are over 10US......

Get on it!

Step in Style and Comfort for Carnival!!

In Trinidad and Tobago the Carnival season is in the air. It is critical for any young female looking to fete for hours to have the right footwear to endure the pressures of the night. Below are some prototypes of shoes that can guide your purchases when thinking of the perfect shoe for your fetes. This weekend is UWI and QRC's outta the blue....be comfortably stylish!

Bakers JS Josephine $129 http://www.bakersshoes.com/

Great option for a fierce, strappy shoe. The straps are thick and they are close, providing a cage to hold your feet and toes in snuggly. Use insoles to prevent slippage.

Paris Hilton Flair $24.95 http://www.6pm.com/

If you go in heels, choose one with an inverted triangle heel, this means that the part attached to the sole of the shoe is larger than the base of the heel. Also, you can never go wrong with a round toe shoe ;)

6pm Type Z Sari $87.35 http://www.6pm.com/

Great combination of heel, round toe comfort and style.

Tramatic_Taupe-LEA_zoom $99.95 http://www.stevemadden.com/

For the chic comfort and style. A platform sole adds more support and height. Use insoles to prevent sliding of feet in open toe shoes.

ModCloth Hera Sandals www.modcloth.com

Sandals are always great. These give you style and flair, however, feel free to add insoles to add the extra cushion they lack.

Taylor Studded Peep Toe Booties $295 http://www.intermixonline.com/

These shoes are fab b/c of the soft leather material and non-restricting toe area. The heel is also of perfect height for a long night of dancing. Use insoles.

Bakers JS Lexi $69.99 http://www.bakersshoes.com/

If you are going to wear a strappy shoe with thin, high heels please ensure that the material is a soft or cloth material. Harder materials will set you up for a hard, long night.

Aldo Bastain $100 http://www.aldoshoes.com/

This is a nice alternative for a strappy shoe. The wedge heel provides height with more support. Please note that wedges have their own set of challenges, so wear your insoles. In addition, the broad, soft leather straps provide the best comfort when wearing a strappy shoe.

Be Safe..

Top Jeans Trends

As in any fashion cycle, there are styles that will stick and some that just would not. Some styles are only picked up by the fashion leaders/innovators and sometimes never trickle down to the fashion followers/early majority/late adopters, etc. Below are some of the trends for '09 that I have seen for jeans. Some gained popularity, others may fickle off or pick up momentum next year ;) Nevertheless, you define fierce with your own unique style ;)
