I am so wearing these with one of my delightful viintage dresses next month for a wedding. Lace everywhere.

Alena - Black lace peep toe pumps. Also: asymmetrical, awesome, adorable, and alliterative.

What category are these anyway? Not wedges exactly. Espadrilles? Kind of. You have to admit the wacky heel thing is pretty snazzy. Yeah, I said snazzy. Next thing you now I'll be using keen and swell. Watch out. I'm on a roll!

They're called Zayne - black velvet avant garde platform heel wrap sandal. Mouthful! I only half wrapped them on at first, I think the wraps will go nicely halfway up my calf. Now, getting it to STAY there. That's always been my issue with espadrilles. My calves do not like to keep things wrapped on them, rather they like to push things down to my ankles.

Now, I need to find some kind of zany outfit to wear with them. That'd be super swell.

How many ways can I wear sandals right now?

All of them.

Rhinestone studded sneaky snakey sandaley...thing. Also, Pessi is the name of this one. How is THAT a name?

Tested these out for work today. Really wish I had more crop pants or skinny leg pants that were work appropriate. Oh how I dread the new dress code when we move. I love skirts, but they just aren't comfortable for me at work.

These are nice glamed up semi-gladiator sandals. They don't go too far up the ankle, but there are plenty of straps. All zipped in the back though, this gladiator will NOT be fighting any lions today thanks, and needs to easily remove them.

Why is it that so many thong-style sandals feel the need to have a little plastic tube covering the toe-separating part? It always rubs ten times worse than the fabric or faux-leather? Silly thing, if you ask me. But you know what's great? Rhinestones. I am in love with rhinestones on my feetsies right now. A little bit of Rarity in me perhaps?

71

Gladiator sandal boot...things? This style still confuses me a little. Kind of like peep toe boots. What's up with THOSE? But they're comfy and I adore the buckles and straps. Must be my thing. What does THAT say about me, huh? Still a little tight on the calves, but then again I apparently have mutant legs.

MUTANT LEGS!

Sandals are all I can wear right now, which is convenient because it is summer and BALLS HOT. These were today's pick. Frighteningly comfortable and sparkly to boot. Though that strap at the middle area is completely useless and kind of annoying. Might do a bit of shoe surgery and improve them for next time.

They call them Andrix. Who names shoes anyway? Some of these names are just.....bizarre. Like a cross between a hat full of stripper names, and some kind of new cocktail. Which will assuredly all end up in glitter in places you don't intend and probably a few regrets. Sound like a new Zach Galifianakismovie?

The Shoe Fairy just visited me again, and it was quite delightful. 14 pairs in all, minus the one pair that was back-ordered and not sent. Boo. I just had minor surgery on my left toe earlier this week, so I can't properly wear them all yet, but I can totally try them all on (one foot obv.) and sneak shots in the fading daylight.

And because this happened to be post #69....well I had to use the sexiest of the shoesies. Oh man.

Brianna, just over the knee black leather platform stiletto with star and half-round studs up the back. Laces at the thigh.

Appropriate for #69?
