We are so in a mood today, not because of the dreary days we've been having, but because of the sullen beauty of today's Shoe of the Day. One thing we love about womens shoes in general, besides wearing them, is the fact that you can use it to express yourself. Hence why we're feeling moody, thanks to the dark floral pattern of this
Ted Baker Saeber Pump. This sultry and feminine womens heel boasts a watercolored printed fabric upper, chic pointed toe silhouette, a metal toe cap, and 4"mirrored heel.

We have to chastise ourselves a bit because we haven't highlighted any womens shoes from this brand in a while, which is a real disservice to you guys. Not only does Oliberté have great shoes, which includes sandals, flip flops, boots, ballet flats, etc, that are incredibly comfortable, they are a sustainable, fair trade certified footwear brand that also supports workers’ rights in sub-Saharan Africa. This is the
Oliberté Praia Wingtip Shoe, a wonderful wine colored women's wingtip that naturally stands out.
We were entranced by the deep, rich hue of the Praia's Nubuck leather upper, the soft take on the wingtip silhouette, its 100% goat leather black lining, coordinating purple poly blend cord laces, water-based PU comfort insole with heel stabilizer, natural crepe rubber sole, and just as before and with every shoe they have, the African floral pattern on the insole and outsole. The Oliberté Praia is available in more understated colors, like the Light Grey Brushed Wax, and Rustic Brown Pullup, but we just love the deep tones of the wine.Get them for $110.00 at

I had the great pleasure of attending the wonderful Spring/Summer preview event for
TEVA Footwear, and to welcome their newest launch, Flatforms, (available in Flatform Sandal, and Flatform Universal). Known for their Water Shoes, Flip Flops, Sandals, and Hiking Shoes for men and women, TEVA's footwear boasts a proprietary Comfort Technology exclusive to the brand.
To help celebrate the Spring/Summer 2015 Collection, attendees had the opportunity to select one of the new Flatform styles and DIY it their way. TEVA provided lots of markers, embroidery thread, paint, stones, and other craft supplies for attendees to select from for their DIY.
I decided to go with the white and orange Women's Flatform Sandal (shown below in my color of choice, and french blue) for my DIY Flatforms.This style is also available in black, formula one (red, black, and white), bright white, and freesia (yellow, black, and white).
I decided to use the bold orange stripe as my color inspiration, while I thought about a design plan. While those around me flocked to the colorful stones and studs to decorate their TEVA Flatforms, I decided to go a bit abstract and use only paint for my watercolor art inspiration.
I must say, although I let the paint and colors control my thought process, I am very happy with the final result. I'm so looking forward to when the weather finally breaks and we all get a chance to let our toes out. What do you guys think of my DIY? How would you decorate your TEVA Sandals?
The TEVA Flatforms, and other spring/summer 2015 styles will be available starting March 15th. We recommend having a little fun of your own, by adding your own personal stamp on your TEVA sandals.
The sun is beaming outside today and while it is still freezing and there's snow on the ground, we're
keeping our thoughts on the sunny side of the day. Because of this, we wanted to highlight a shoe with the color known for its "sunny-ness" - yellow. We love the eccentric and eclectic sandal that is the
Jimmy Choo Kaya Wedges. Boasting attention-getting details in materials, colors, style, you're left with a dynamic suede and leather shoe that turns heads. The Kaya features buckles in three different colors, fabrications, and shapes, a 4" wedge heel that although it appears to be multiple parts put together is actually all one piece. We love the combination of vibrant yellow, bold violet, and the accent of metallic leather. Grab these stunners for $1,750.00 at
