I am suddenly loving the look of studs! They give such a fun and glam look to accessories. Some of my studded favorites on this fine Tuesday Shoesday…

Halloweek
A Pinteresting Tuesday Shoesday
I. Adore. Pinterest.

And I was so inspired by this pin the other day…
That I made a couple stops on my way home, purchased some $10 clearance flats at Payless and some pink ribbon, and made these…
I can’t say I love my version quite as much as the originals, but I think they’ll do 🙂
Do you all ever put your pins to action??

A little leopard
Zippity shoe da, Zappos Tuesday….
I don’t think it’s any secret that leopard is one of the biggest trends to be sporting this fall, especially when it comes to footwear. Personally, I’m excited for it– no longer is leopard being seen as tacky (or is it still to you? I want to hear your thoughts!). But I am KICKING myself because I have been searching for weeks now for an old pair of leopard flats I had in high school and I’m finally admitting to myself I think I must have thrown them out years ago, never stopping to believe that animal print would actually come back in. Little did I know!
But alas, I’m now without them and instead have my eyes on these beauties now…
Think this is a style to stay or still too trendy? I say a little leopard isn’t so bad.
Emily’s Essentials
Last week, I showed you what Lauren Conrad considers the six shoes every lady’s closet needs. I agree wholeheartedly with her choices, but I think our gal pal left out a few, so here are six more types of shoes I consider to be essentials 🙂
Dressy Flip Flops: I feel like flip flops have such a bad reputation for being lazy and sloppy. But I am so not a fan of heels in the heat, or flats that get sweaty, so I rely on flip flops in the summer. And there are alternatives to rubber ones. A neutral, but classy pair like these will go with just about everything.
Wellies: Unless you’re one of the lucky ones who lives in one of those climates where you never have to worry about rain (and I guess LC is in Southern California…), rain boots are a must. I can’t think of a pair of shoes I’ve gotten more use out of living in Boston.
Comfy Heels: Yes, every girl needs a striking pair of comfy nine-inchers for nights out on the town, but how often do you want to wear those to work? Or a nice dinner with your family? A low heel, or even some higher ones with good ankle support, are priceless in my book!
Boat Shoes: I love my Sperrys. I can’t remember how I ever lived without them. So preppy, comfortable, and versatile. And hello– waterproof!!
Mary Janes: Another more work- or class-sensible alternative to your average flashy high heels. Plus they are absolutely timeless.
Ugg Boots: I don’t care how ugly or trendy you think these are, I will come right out and say that I. LOVE. UGGS. Have since high school. I don’t wear them with mini skirts or in the summer or while hanging out with Snooki. I wear them when I need something warm and comfy on my feet, and when I need shoes to transport to work in before putting on a less-comfortable alternative.
I’d also normally include TOMS in this list, but unfortunately Zappos doesn’t sell them yet! What other shoes do you need in your closet??
