I love booties

Booties being shoes. Not bums, that is ;)

Well, it’s safe to say I’m obsessed with looking at shoes online.

I still have a pair of Tory Burch flats bookmarked for 6 months that I check on a weekly basis to see if there’s a sale going on. Oh I lust after thee.

Zappo’s now ships to Canada.

$59.95? Not bad, and not as high as my 4″ boots. These are only 2+ ish..

The reviews on this bootie says they’re not 2 inch heels but rather 4 or more! Dang.

Aren’t these mummy-inspired booties cute too? Too bad they’re sold out of my size (8.5).

I also recently found this online store called Urban Og, which are amazingly priced if you just want some inexpensive stylish shoes. Except the shipping to Canada is about $17 per pair. They have some pretty stylin booties as well. I’m wearing a nice sage green dress to my companies Christmas party next month, as well to a wedding when I go home for Christmas. I’m looking for some tan/nude maybe suede booties (like the mummy one’s shown above) to wear to both places.


These are a bit crazy high for me. 4.5″ with a 1″ platform. $24.80 for them though!

Could be cute? $25.20

Guess it’s safe to say I love  booties this season.

What kind of shoes do you wear on a regular basis?
To work I wear fancier shoes than I do on the weekends. As you can tell I’m getting into fancier footwear like booties, boots and heels. I think it’s because I don’t really want to dress up on the weekends and want to relax a bit more with a jeans and a tee.

American Readers, pipe up!

26 Comments


Get this — I was contacted by a company in the States even though I’m in Canada, to do a contest for my American readers! That’s pretty cool hey? A woman from the online store Fashion to Figure contacted me and we both agreed that I’d do a giveaway. While I did ask that if my contest could be available for US and Canadian readers, unfortunately it couldn’t happen as they can only ship to domestic US addresses.

I’m not sure how many American readers I have but I’m not about to reject a good giveaway that I feel some people would be interested in. In the past I have shrugged off (and of course replied kindly) to a few companies saying I am not interested in certain giveaways as it doesn’t flow with my blog. But I think people will appreciate this one.

Fashion to Figure is a women’s full-fashion company who carries trendy and of course fashionable clothing for plus size women at a good price. They’re offering my readers in the United States a pair of cute jeans. They gave me a list to choose from, and I thought that the jeans were the best prize. Don’t you agree?

Are you eligible to win these jeans from Fashion to Figure? See the rules and regulations below!

Easy Rules & Regulations:

  1. Contest closes on Friday, November 5 at 3pm EST.  (I beg you, do not enter once the contest has closed. Please? That’s just disrespectful since it shows you didn’t read the easy, simple rules.
  2. Contest is only open to USA readers.
  3. Comment as often as you wish.

Pamper yourself, and have a look at what they have available. Remember — it only ships to domestic US addresses.
