Tis the season. Apparently, to be jolly, to give, to love, to share and… to wear black. You see, when your plate is full – either with things to do or with food! – it just seems easier and slimming to throw on a little black dress or tailored pants and a black sweater and head out to the holiday party scene!
This year, we’re embracing black. We just have one concession – pair your LBO (little black outfit – duh!) with this season’s other trend: Bright Booties!
Below are the best bright booties for every budget: Read more »

The verdict is in! Pantone, the folks who dictate what colors are in or out each year, have predicted that honeysuckle will be the color for 2011. Maybe you’ve never heard of this hue. It’s a lush pink shade that’s not as saturated or bright as coral, but definitely more interesting and versatile than plain ol’ pink. Honeysuckle can be done in many shades, which is why it’s a fabulous color for 2011. You can style it many ways and wear it for almost any occasion.
We’re always a fan of statement shoes here at myShoes.com and honeysuckle is the perfect hue to do that with for the new year. The delicate details like bows and ribbons that are going to be strong trends for the SS 2011 season will match up perfectly with the color of the year. Read more »

Wide-footed ladies don’t like their shoe options, but they’re certainly not the only ones with a tough time choosing shoes. What about our friends with narrow feet? We have options for you that should work even if you have 2A sizing.
Strappy Shoes
In general, shoes with a strap across the top of the foot will allow you to adjust them to stay more secure on your feet. Strappy shoes with plenty of holes for the buckles and a bit of elastic for a secure fit are a top buy. Strappy shoes that pack a punch include Mary Janes and leatherette,’80s inspired flats.

Typically, when you think of Burberry you think trench coats or perhaps those ubiquitous plaid scarves that everyone and their mother used to wrap up in when the mercury drops. However, turns out this line from our friends on the other side of the pond also offers up some pretty darn enviable footwear!
If you’re in the mood for something to showcase that classic plaid, then consider stepping out in the Nova Check Kitten Heel Pumps which, as the name would suggest, is a truly classy kitten-heel pump available in your choice of black or tan plaid fabric. This shoe also features a timeless-looking leather strap and oversized buckle detail at the rounded toe.
If it’s a flat you’re after, Burberry offers the aptly named Ballerina, which is available in a host of colors and features a rounded toe complete with oversized round buckle detailing and a ruched foot opening for a custom and comfortable fit. Another cute touch? The shoe boasts a Burberry-a-riffic plaid lining! Read more »

As we’ve discussed before here at myShoes.com, finding winter boots that are cute and chic is a tough task. It’s not impossible, but be prepared to dig, hunt and do trial runs with boots that may not stand the test of time. We want something that keeps us warm, are easy to walk in despite the icky weather conditions and still looks halfway decent for a dinner out with friends. Enter the Ugg Lynnea boots.
The Ugg Lynnea boots have caused a stir on the web because word has spread like wildfire about how fabulous the boots are. When you take a peek at them online, you’ll realize the boots are definitely cute. They’re a clog-style boot, which is oh-so-stylish this season and hit a little lower than mid-calf, but a little higher than your standard ankle boot. The Lynnea boots are available in black and brown leather and black and brown suede. All are fabulous picks, but if you’re in a snowy region the leather version are less prone to snow and salt stains than the suede. Read more »

Trimmed Slippers
Slippers are a necessity for anyone who lives in a cold climate. Since these slippers are a must-buy for most of us, buying them on sale is very clever. Any shoe necessity—whether it’s a slipper or a flip flop—should be purchased for as low as you can go, and that means strictly clearance buys.
