Now I was looking in my closet and found I was missing an important color. Why it took me so long to buy this particular color I don't know..I guess I am not as " In with Trends" as I thought, lol. but the color I am talking about is Nude! Lets face it nude colored shoes are everywhere and have been for some time.
Nude goes with virtually every color and did I mention they elongate the leg? What woman doesn't want a little more leg? So I had to have a pair of nude shoes, flats preferably and proceeded to find a nice pair online. Now with a lot of looking and debating I found my lovelies on Piperlime which has a pair of nude flats that look almost identical to the ones I have been drooling over by Lanvin, but with a more affordable price tag.
These shoes stole my heart and of course being the logical shopper that I am, lol I decided to get another pair of flats so I found the cutest pair ever by Calvin Klein! So with some internal dialogue I proceeded to click the Purchase button. Click! they were mine!
Now I would like to talk about another purchase that I had made about three months ago.
I have never in my whole life ever..I mean ever been in love with a pair of shoes as much as these!
I have been like a vulture hovering over online stores until I saw 8 1/2 become available. I have been on stores from Bergdorf Goodman to Saks trying to find these >< and to much frustration and no luck my size was sold out ..and then they came back..... and they were mine. The shoes I am talking about are a pair of grey stunning Christian Louboutins and I finally got them from Net-a-porter!
Now let me weigh in my two cents about my recent shoe purchases.
♥ Steve Madden Koool Blush Patent Flats
I love these they are so chic and go with everything in my closet!
These flats are said to be the color Blush although they are a camel color. I was very happy with the color and if you are looking for a pair of camel colored flats these are it! I must say beware though they are not comfortable and that is the only downside of these. They fit tight so I highly recommend getting these flats in a size up then your normal shoe size. Trust me your feet will thank you!
The back of these flats scrunch together giving it a pretty and chic look but it is uncomfortable on your heels. These are again not the most comfortable but they make up for it by being very chic, beautiful, and affordable. You will get your money worth out of these because of the fact that they can go with pretty much every color and can go with stuff from shorts to dresses! Though I must say the reason I gave these 3 stars out of 4 is because of the numerous uses you can get out of them and the chicness of them.
❋Pros
*Beautiful Camel color
*affordable at $70.00
*Look more expensive then they are
* Goes with everything
❋Cons
* Not comfortable (order one whole size up)
* Gets dirty very easy
* Synthetic material (insole and outsole)

♥ Calvin Klein Cheryl Studded Flats
These flats by Calvin Klein are literally fit and feel like a dream! These are by far the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. They are a deep black with little silver studs that decorate the heel and the toe area. These shoes give a little bit of an edge to any outfit and are not too loud, so if your looking for a little something, something to add to your outfits then these are perfect! These shoes fit true to size so no need to worry about ordering a half or whole size up. FYI though if your feet swell in heat like mine these shoes will not expand due to the fact that they are real leather.
❋Pros
* Stunning color
* Gives subtle edge to any outfit
* Leather (insole) rubber (outsole)
*can wear these all day and still feel like a cloud
*Fits True to size
*Affordable at $79.99
❋Cons
*People who have feet that swell the shoes will not expand

♥Christian Louboutin Grey Patent Leather Pumps
One brand every woman should have in her closet is a pair of Christian Louboutins! I know these are not the most affordable shoes but they are stunning and fit like a glove^^. These beauties give a little sexiness and luxury to any outfit and there is something about wearing a pair of CL shoes. They make you feel glamorous and are worth the hefty price tag 100%! I must warn you though if you wear size 61/2-10 it will be hard to purchase online due to the fact that these shoe sizes are pretty much always sold out >< I have been wanting a pair of black ones but I guess I have the most common shoe size so it is a bit frustrating. Now CL are notorious for fitting small so you have to order one whole size up for them to fit, they are made with 100% real leather so they swell and are not for women with wide feet (like me...grrrr) so unless you are like me and think hey why not beauty is pain then they will definitely be one of the most stunning and treasured pair of shoes you will own :)
Now I really suggest that if you are not super rich but can afford to buy a pair of designer shoes then always go Neutral, cause then you can atleast where them with everything and will not feel guilty about the big cost of these. I bought these from Net-a-porter and they are 3 1/2 inches with a 1 inch covered platform have a almond shaped toe. These heels are very comfortable. I love them!!!!
❋Pros
* Extremely well made
*Replaceable Red sole
*Fits the foot like a glove
*Beautiful and classic
*Shape and color go with everything
*Easy to walk in (for women who are not use to wearing heels)
*These will most definitely be the most complimented shoes you will own
*100% real leather (insole and outsole)
❋Cons
* Expensive
*Have to order one size up
*Not for wide feet
