Steve Madden Sale

If you have a few minutes to spare, check out the "Get It Before Its Gone" sale at Steve Madden. You might discover a particular item you have been eyeing has now gone on sale. I was high on these Jentle Sandals in black and am glad I held off. They have been marked down to 89.99 (orig. $129.95).

SATC Shoes

I FINALLY had a chance to see the Sex and the City movie this past weekend and I can say with 100% certainty that the shoes, clothes, and bags did not disappoint. These shoes in particular caught my eye everytime they were on the screen (this is where the movie translated really well to the big screen). I cannot afford the Christian Dior ones that Carrie Bradshaw rocks in the movie for $770, but I can part with $69.95 for the Candice sandal (read: knock offs) at Bakershoes.

Steve Madden Simmerr Sandal

Now is the time to snag those Steve Madden sandals that you have been lusting after. I am rather fond of these sexy and strappy platforms, the Simmerr Black Patent Leather sandals and they have been reduced to $69.95.

Kate Spade Gala Too Slides

And here's another great find at Nordstrom that is on sale, the Kate Spade "Gala Too" slides. I love the green! Grab them for $155.90 before they have all been spoken for.

Legs Sandal

Want to show off those gams that you have been working so hard to get in tip top shape for the summer? These Enzo Angiolini "Legs" Sandals can assist you in those efforts. There's truly no sexier sandal out there right now, in my opinion, than patent-leather platforms. Nordstrom has these on sale right now for $58.90.

Franco Sarto Vacancy Wedges

I don't know that I necessarily need a pair of pink strappy wedges, but these are adorable and might be a nice add on to a neutral outfit. For less than $100, their color might not be the only thing that makes you smile when you put them on.

BCBGirls Famous Sandal

I don't think a pair of shoes can get any sexier than these Famous Sandals by BCBGirls. I love the metallic snakeskin crisscrossing straps.

Michael Kors Debutante Wedges

I am a big Michael Kors fan (speaking of which have you heard all of the Project Runway drama? I hope when the show makes the jump to Lifetime its still great) and these wedges are delightful. There have been tons of uber creative heels and wedges this season, but the cut outs on this pair are just dramatic enough for my taste. The green is perfect to add a punch of color to black and blue ensembles and you can totally rock these with your florals too. LOVE THEM!

T-Strap Mini Wedge Sandals

If you aren't the most graceful gal in towering wedges, these two inch T-strap wedge sandals at Rampage might appeal to you. They only come in the dark brown color shown and are currently going for $44.

Etienne Aigner Diana Wedge

The Diana wedge is adorable and comes in three colors (shark, yellow, and black) and is on sale at Piperlime right now for $49.50.

Steve Madden Pascha Shoes

These multi-colored (brown and purple) t-strap sandals are sensational and on sale ($71.50).

Chinese Laundry Willy Sandals

Need an affordable, but sexy sandal for painting the town red this summer? These Willy sandals at Piperlime, which come in gold, silver, and black, are only $60. Although with a four inch heel, they aren't for the clumsy. I could use a new pair of gold heels and these might prove too hard to resist.

Hadley Sandals

I have been looking for a pair of black sandals and these Hadley sandals at Max Studio caught my eye. They are a new twist on the thong sandal that everyone is sporting right now. I really like the knots and the multiple stranded straps. And this may seem silly, but I want black sandals that are completely black. I have found a lot of pairs where the straps are black, but the sole isn't. These are ideal for me.

Facade Drew Sandal

If you are looking to turn some heads, these purple snake-embossed platforms might do the trick. These 4 1/2 inch stilettos are for seasoned heel wearers and will most likely suit a brazen broad who's a little rock 'n roll who was looking for a chic way to incorporate the exotic trend into their spring flings.
