Cece L'amour Leopard Wedges

Since so many of you asked (thank you) I wanted to share that the Cece L'amour leopard wedges I love so much are up on heels.com!!! They're one of my favorites ever. They're pretty simple and easy to wear but I get SO may compliments on them. Its super flattering and makes me so happy!!

(The yellow is a bit more mustard-y in person in my opinion)

shooting them for our ad campaign

It also comes in this floral print that I love. I lent them out to a fellow bridesmaid at my best friend's wedding last month...

Behind the Scenes...Photo Shoe-t

I know, I know. Almost a month without posting, I totally suck. I hope you follow my Tumblr because I update that almost daily. It's so convenient. 

It's been 10 months and this divorce thing is still really affecting me. I don't know why but I find it hard to do the things I used to love to do. Blogging included. BUT... this isn't a therapy session its a muthafuggin shoe blog so let's get to it!

This last Friday we shot for the new Fall 2012 Cece L'amour and Penny Loves Kenny lines. IT WAS SO AWESOME!! We had a really great team of super talented people and we had a lot of fun. Like, probably more fun than you're supposed to have when you're working ;) We shot it at the beautiful Biltmore hotel in downtown Los Angeles and shot from 10am to close to 10pm. Crazy long day!

I'm no longer designing for bebe. I've handed it off to another designer who's got some great ideas and is going to have a lot of fun with it. I'm now concentrating on my own brand, Cece L'amour... my baby. And a really fun brand named Penny Loves Kenny. We own both of those names and I think it's awesome to be designing for the 2 brands that my father's company actually owns. It's more personal.

Anyway- here's a look behind the scenes...

The best part about these shoots was that I got to use my beautiful friends as models. It's so INSANE that I have actual friends that are this beautiful.
The amazing and ridiculously gorgeous Skully Smith for Penny Loves Kenny...

Up next, another stunning friend of mine, Dianna Ryan for Cece L'amour.

These are my favorite for fall!!

And me again, in rare form. FLATS!? Yep. Sometimes you gotta get on the roof of the historic Biltmore hotel in your Chucks. ;)

Love you all!!

Trend Spotting: The Sneaker Wedge

I've noticed this weird thing about sneaker wedges. They're EVERYWHERE!!!!


I think they're super cute but these Isabel Marant ones down yonder are over $600 which is kind of lame if you ask me. And since you're reading, I assume you'd ask me.
I'm not one to shy away from spending some serious cash on awesome shoes but for sneakers?? Eeeeeeeeehhhh.... I dunno. Plus, I'm a little weary cause it kind of reminds me of the time I was really into buying Nike dunks. I bought some limited edition ones I found in LA and a pair in Japan that looked like they were made of unicorns. I wore them with skinny jeans and hipster scarves. That phase didn't last long.
These are different though I think. There's something chic about them. The height helps elevate them if you'll excuse the cheesy play-on words.

I'm still a little on the fence. Maybe I'll start out with an inexpensive pair to test the waters. What do you think??

The Low Down

This weird thing has happened to me. For a few months after Ben and I separated my feet were depressed. I had no interest in heels and wore converse every day. It was shocking.
Don't worry, I'm back in heels! But I also found this kind of happy medium in chunky heels and wedges. Where I used to be all about the highest heels possible, (which I still LOVE) now I'm flirting with more comfortable shoes for running around in.

I noticed that two of my stylish girlfriends had these perfect little wedge booties and I loved how they looked on them, so naturally I snatched some up for myself. They're that perfect height where you can't call them low but they're definitely not high. They're super comfortable and I can easily run around in them all day. Another thing these wedge booties are is inexpensive. On sale for $105 each, buying both pairs was cheaper than a pair of designer flats! Unfortunately they're sold out on Nordstrom.com but you may still be able to get them in stores.

I love high heeled high end designer shoes but I'm really excited to find great shoes at a great price. I'll be on the lookout for all of us! ;)

In fact, here are some affordable, comfortable looking booties I found on heels.com most with other colors available too...

Pierre Hardy Wedges

I'm more than slightly obsessed with Pierre Hardy's wedge offerings this Spring/Summer. 

 These are SO cool! I of course love the pink and orange striped ones too. So girly and flirty! They remind me of old fashion candy. Yummy!

I think a big reason that I love them so much is the extreme height on these babies. That's how you make wedges sexy...

Flowers and Bunnies and Wedges, Oh My!

You guys know I love Spring. It's so full of pretty girly things like Spring flowers and baby bunnies popping out of mommy bunnies everywhere! Lots of pink and fluff and sunshine and new life... are you sick to your stomach yet?

So it's not surprising that I put two of my favorite Spring things together- flowers and bunnies, adding my other obvious favorite... NEW SHOES!!

(MORE AFTER THE JUMP)

Yay! I got them and I love them. They're super high yet mostly comfortable. The rubber bottom and cushy insole are so great. To go with my over-priced shoes I'm wearing all Forever21. I love my Fifi Lapin sweater so I was excited to see that she did more shirts for the brand for Spring.

I'm excited for warmer weather and cute girly clothes!

I wanna be like the Hang In There kitty...
