    ah karen, a woman after my own heart. I showcased these CL mirrored pumps in an entry once…wistfully staring at the picture for many minutes than I’d like to admit. They’re all just so delicious–it’s cruel for any woman to choose just one!

    tanya´s last blog post..updated vintage

    lol! you are so funny we so have similar shoe tastes!

    i love em all!

    double the moleskin and foot petals for me yo!

  4. 4. Scifi said, on February 11th, 2009:

    I like those Slip-ons. Especially the Vans ones; One advantage to having freakishly huge feet is being able to wear cute Mens slip-ons. I might have to look into getting a pair of those… Really Karen, are you TRYING to make me spend money?

    Hi Miss QQ,

    Hee! Four pairs of shoes are a reasonable amount!

    Do ya here that Cupid? ;)

  7. 7. Karen said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Hi Tanya,

    If those shoes were fast food I’d inhale them in two seconds. :)

    I hope to someday just try them on. I think that would be enough to make me happy!

  8. 8. Karen said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Hi YadiQ,

    LOL! Yeah, Cupid. You better hook Yadi up, too!

  9. 9. Karen said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Hi Scifi,

    LOL, I actually am going to get a pair of those because I need some new casual flats. I keep trying to part with my broke-ass Adidas Shell Toes but I can’t seem to get rid of them… I’m hoping the Vans will ease my pain. ;)

    Hi Jana,

    Have a lovely evening, Jana! I hope you’re dreaming of cute shoes. :)

    As nice as those Stella McCartney shoes would be, I’m honestly in the Nine West price range. Other than the brand name, what’s the difference between them? Oh, and guess what? The date and place of my wedding has been booked! I feel uber giddly.

  12. 12. Karen said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Hi Tekoa,

    I don’t own any really expensive shoes (I’m in the Nine West price range, too) but I’ve read that the construction of the high end ones makes a difference in comfort.

    BIG CONGRATS on getting the venue booked! That’s HUGE! :) What’s it like? Will the reception and ceremony be in the same place?

  13. 13. Karen B said, on February 11th, 2009:

    LOOOOOVE the Stella shoes, they’re so so pretty!

  14. 14. Alison said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Love the Valentino’s, the Manolo d’Orsay’s and the Patent Christian laboutin’s. As well as a make-up obsession I have a serious shoe fetish (particularly for shoes I can’t afford!) Also have a weakness for pink, so pink + shoes + trouble!

  15. 15. Jess said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Aww!! Pink heels have a special place in my heart because I wore hot pink heels under my wedding gown. The hot pink peeping out from under the dress made for some of my favorite photos so this is a fun shout-out to that. Awesome picks too — you’ve got good taste :)

    oh my goodness….*fans self*

  17. 17. gio said, on February 11th, 2009:

    I LOVE Kate Spade Clarice shoes, they’re gorgeous!!

  18. 18. Kate said, on February 11th, 2009:

    I like numbers 3, 6, 10 and 13.

  19. 19. Glosslizard said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Nice eye candy! I’ll take the Vans and the Stella strappy sandals! I love the Louboutin fringe pumps, but do you think they’d create an illusion of thick, hot pink ankle hair?

  20. 20. Amanda said, on February 11th, 2009:

    oh my-I think I just piddles a little over these! especially #1, 7, 9, 11, 12 and 14! OMG. too bad they all soooo pricey. But fun to look at. someday, someday a designer pair will be mine! (Evil laugh)

  21. 21. valry said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Hey Karen! The first pair of shoes are HOT HOT HOT!I bet tabs is gonna get them for his lover! I went to Dillards and they had some cute bright colored shoes for spring by Gianni Binni mich more affordable for me! In the mean time a girl can dream about those pink metallic beauties!

  22. 22. Doreen said, on February 11th, 2009:

    KAREN! AHHH! Wow, those Louboutin patent platform pumps are gorgeous! If I saw those on a display stand in SAKS, I think I would probably cave. Unless those heels were too high to walk in, or something.

  23. 23. Briana said, on February 11th, 2009:

    Oooh! Love those mirrored Louboutin’s! I want them!

    Hi Karen B.,

    I know! I think they’d look so fab with a summer dress. :)

  29. 29. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Alison,

    Nice! I love shoes, too. My shoe collection habits have slowed down in the last year, but I still love to admire them. What’s your favorite pair? Right now I’m loving on these yellow platform sandals that I got from Aerosoles (when did they get cute?) last year on sale.

  30. 30. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Jess,

    What a cute idea! I wish I did that for my wedding day.

  31. 31. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Laura B.,

    I know right? Here, let me hand you a glass of water before you faint from shoe ecstasy!

  32. 32. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Gio,

    I love those, too. The bow on the front is too cute!

  33. 33. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Kate,

    All good choices! :)

  34. 34. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Glosslizard,

    LOL, they are actually really cute on. I saw them in a few magazines and was very surprised to see how wearable they look!

  35. 35. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Amanda,

    I feel the same way! I don’t really buy expensive shoes but I love to admire them. One day, though, I’d love to have just one pair of killer black heels that I could wear to *everything*.

  36. 36. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Valry,

    I heart those! I almost fainted when I saw them online. :) I haven’t heard of the Gianni Binni brand so I will look into them! It’s always nice to find pretty, affordable shoes.

  37. 37. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Doreen,

    Those shoes cause instant drool! :) They look almost too high for me — my max is three inches and they look four. YIKES!

  38. 38. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Briana,

    Me too! Could you imagine wearing those? Everywhere you walked would turn into an instant runway.

  39. 39. Karen said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Raven,

    I hear that! I don’t own any pairs but I love looking at them.

  40. 40. Alison said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Hi Karen

    My favourite pair at the moment are the ones I bought to wear on Valentines day. They a red satin peep toe courts with 4 inch heels and they have a beautiful ruffle of satin ribbon across the back of the heel. Very Laboutin but not, I got them on sale for a bargain so it makes them just that little bit more special!
    I love shoes so much my best friend has promised to buy me a pair of Jimmy Choos as a wedding present (when I finally get married!!!).

  41. 41. Faye said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Ooh! I actually own the #7 Louboutin pumps, but in black. I tried them on in pink and they were sooooo lurvely, but I just couldn’t justify the cost because how often would I wear pink shoes really? But thanks for including a pic and reminding me of them :) .

  42. 42. Glosslizard said, on February 12th, 2009:

    Ha! In that case I’ll take two pair! :D
