It’s a red and black leather peep-toe sandal with a gold zip fastening at the back and (look close) a wood effect! HAUTENESS!.

Dear Blueprint…Need Help! Need Dressy Casual Heels that Work Now & into Fall
Mystery: I have 3 weddings to do across two days so, I need a nice, classy pump or heel that I can wear at an afternoon outdoor wedding, evening wedding, and indoor and slightly dressier wedding; plus one pair is better than three. I can’t spend a ton…as a matter of fact, my budget is $200 and […]

Shoe I Stay or Shoe I Go?!
Yesterday the ladies got to pine over some of my favorite shoes (now you know how I feel!) while the gentlemen got to take a look at the most expensive shoes for men — it almost makes it ok for the ladies to purchase more than 1 pair at any sale! For some reason, I’m sure the […]
