Product Review: YRU ANGL Winged High Heel Pointed Toe Pump

March 3, 2016 · Leave a Comment

I have a massive collection of amazing shoes. Some are conservative pumps, others are sky-high stilettos. There are Tod’s driving loafers. Then there is my “Pieces of Art” Shoe Collection. These are the ones that I keep in clear boxes so I can display and admire them when they are not in use.

The latter are where these pumps are categorized. This pair of YRU ANGL Winged High Heel Pointed Toe Pump remind me of a few decorated high end pairs I have including several from Sophia Webster’s amazing, over the top line. What I like about the YRU pumps is that they are at a price point that they can be worn more frequently, not just on special, “make sure to get my shoes in the picture” occasions. I have a few highly conservative pinstripe pantsuits that the style of the leg is quite long, and I love that I can wear these heels and when I cross my legs these fun, fantastic stilettos peek out from under my pant leg – a bit of whimsey and personality for an office setting. If you have a creative job in a corporate setting, these are perfect.

I tend to gravitate towards thicker heels, so I am delighted that the 4.25” skinny stiletto is as stable. I was able to walk around at a brisk pace (while carrying heavy items) with ease – and not just “high heel” ease. As far as size, I’m closer to a 7.5 but decided to buy the size 8 since they don’t offer half sizes. As with many stilettos with high vamps, it took a bit of wiggling for my foot to get in but fit perfectly once they were on. So if you are a half-size on shoes, I would recommend going to the larger size.

I’m very impressed with the craftsmanship on these shoes: though they are not leather, they look and feel like it. They come in high-end packaging and include extra heel taps to keep your pumps looking and feeling new. The quality of the shoe box is excellent too – reinforced cardboard that is meant to protect the heels and they aren’t crowded in the box at all.

I opted for the black, but they are also available in creamy white if you are looking for a fun and comfortable wedding shoe.

All in all, these are fun heels that are actually quite versatile. The comfort factor makes them ideal for a night out or a long day. But they are definitely meant to be shown off!

Product Review: Pro Chef Kitchen Tools Hanger Clips Hooks 10 Boot Organizer

February 20, 2016 · Leave a Comment

I have clothes, shoes, and purses that I’m never sure if I should wear or put on display as pieces of art. You know the phrase about fear of wasting a great outfit on an insignificant day? Those are the pieces I’m talking about. With Pro Chef Kitchen Tools Hanger Clip Hooks 10 Boot Hangers, I can at least display my pieces until I decide an occasion is worthy to wear them.

Last year I picked up several pairs of hand-painted boots. I was a little obsessed with all these gorgeous boutique pairs I kept finding. Even though they are strong leathers, the paint makes them really delicate. You are literally walking around in a painting. I had them individually wrapped in boxes but they still sustained some minor damage. So when I found out about these Hanger Clip Hooks, these boots immediately came to mind.

They are fantastic. I clipped one side of each boot and hung them. They have hung securely and it’s great to be able to place them in a way that they aren’t knocking into other items. What I especially love about them is that the teeth are covered with nylon, so even the delicate leather is left without the slightest of marks even after several days. That really impressed me.

They comes in a pack of 10, so that allows for 5 pairs of boots or other items. You can store a pair of boots on one clip or secure them individually. The nylon coating on the inside of the clip also makes them ideal for fabrics that would fray over time with regular clips, e.g. a taffeta skirt. I wouldn’t necessarily use them on delicate scarves, but they are certainly gentle enough to handle linen.

Shoe Saturday: Betsey Johnson Lacy

April 24, 2010 · Leave a Comment

I love these – works now through the fall given the coloring. Sports a 4″ stiletto – but you should have decent stability with the ankle strap.

Find these Betsey Johnson Lacy heels at Piperlime.com.

Shoe Saturday: Cindy Says Audrey Peep Toe Pump

August 8, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Need a pop of color with your outfit? Try these Cindy Says Audrey Peep Toe Pump from Amazon.com. A great square toe and 4″ heel looks sharp with those slightly too long pants that hit the top of your foot, and look great that way.
