The PERFECT Black Heels: The Stuart Weitzman Fever

My Review of the Stuart Weitzman Fever High Heel

Wow, this shoe will definitely keep you warm... Either that or the guy who will end up on your arm.

This is the perfect black high heel! I'm so excited to see that Stuart Weitzman is carrying this shoe all the way up to a women's size 12. And, if that weren't enough, he's offering the Fever in narrow and wide widths (in addition to the standard medium width)!

This shoe has a pointed toe to compliment its 4 inch stiletto heel. It's made with and lined with leather - and has a metallic heel accent.

It actually comes in 5 colors, so you'll definitely be able to find the one that suits you - and, it will be in the right size too!

Reviewer: Michele from Texas

This shoe is a classic - I have had this shoe for about a year. It is the most versatile and sexy shoe that I own. It is also very comfortable, especially for a 4 in. heel

Reviewer: Avanicole from Florida

Powerful- I must say when I first laid eyes on this shoe my mouth dropped to the floor. I've been searching for a Red pair of shoes that will turn heads! Well I finally purchased a pair of the Fire RED Stuart Weitzman Fever Stilettos and let me tell you it's true they truly fit to size! I ordered a 7 1/2 and it was uncomfortable so I called customer service and WOW the guy was so helpful and he even expressed another pair of shoes to me!! That’s service. I currently own a pair of size 8 Fever shoes and I'm stopping traffic wherever I go! They feel great & I look amazing in them, they are sexy with any outfit! Thank you Zappos!!!

One Bad Ass Shoe: The Onitsuka Tiger by Asics Mexico 66

My Review of the Onitsuka Tiger by Asics Mexico 66

If you're like me, finding even a casual shoe can be a nightmare. The amount you pay in gas and parking alone coule have paid for a new pair of shoes, but instead, you're out driving around, trying to find something in your size. Something cute. Something comfortable.

Well, here it is: The Onitsuka Tiger by Asics Mexico 66!

This wonderful tennis shoe comes in many sizes and colors. The Onitsuka Tiger by Asics goes up to a size FIFTEEN in women's! And, it comes in TWELVE color combinations!

When you find yourself frustrated and looking for a new shoe (or to prevent yourself from getting that way), you need to try the Onitsuka Tiger. First introduced by Asics in 1966, these casual tennis shoes were made famous by their legendary Tiger Stripes. They were even worn at the Olympic Games.

The uppers on these shoes are made of leather and suede and the bottoms are rubber. These shoes can go from the soccer field to an afternoon movie. They're casual, cute, and comfortable!

Reviewer: Suzanne from Austin, Texas

I love these shoes - I am not a big tennis shoe person, but I love these. I got them in white with the green and red stripes; I get compliments all the time. I needed these for work because I stand all day, so I had to get insoles. Other than that they are very comfortable.

Reviewer: Leah from New Haven, CT

I'd give them 10 stars if I could - I've been searching all over for a shoe like this! These shoes are sleek, lightweight, and comfy. They fit like a glove, and are flattering on my size 10.5 feet. I'm going to have to get another pair!

Anne Klein New York Mabel Heeled Shoe

My Review of the Anne Klein New York Mabel

It looks like for now, I will be alternating between shoe and clothes. Today's shoe of the day is the Anne Klein New York Mabel. The Mabel is a high heeled braided platform that is available in up to a size 12 - and also available in narrow!

This beautiful shoe is available in two colors: Champagne and Copper. Quite frankly, I'm having trouble picking between them because they're both so great! And, the cork bottoms actually match the weave style metallic uppers!

The heels are just over 4 inches, so again... you'll need to be comfortable being a little taller. Next time, I'll try to recommend a flat shoe, but I just had to share these with you first.

The inside of the shoe is also padded and the bottom of the shoe has a rubber sole embedded into the cork. As far as heels go, this is a comfortable one.

It's best suited for a garden party or a night on the town. This shoe is made to make the wearer feel special. It's charming, yet simple.

Sexy & Comfortable - This is a must have shoe - it is trendy, chic and comfortable all in one. This shoe was the perfect addition to my spring wardrobe. Thanks to Zappos I was able to find a pair - these shoes have sold out in major department stores.

Gap Capris: Cargo Roll-Up Capris

My Review of the Gap Capris: Cargo Roll-Up Capris

These capris offered by the Gap actually come in tall sizes. It's always suprising to me when a company decides to make this necessary adjustment. It seems that most companies think that all shorts are the same. But if you're tall, you know that this isn't true.

I remember not being allowed to wear shorts to grade school because my shorts weren't long enough to come down to my fingertips. With these capris, you won't have to worry about this. They're made especially for tall girls.

These Gap capris made from woven ripstop cotton and can be washed. They have a double snap closure and a string tie. They also have front pockets, back pockets, and a side cargo pocket (each one with a snap closure). They also have snap tabs for roll-up styling.

At $48, these capris by Gap are definitely a positive addition to any tall woman's summer casual wardrobe.

Here's a photo of the Gap Cargo Roll-Up Capris

Inseam: 22" (regular), 25" (tall)

Anne Klein New York Delano Wedge Sandal

My Review of the Anne Klein New York Delano

Well, I made an interesting discovery today while researching shoes for another blog that I write: Anne Klein carries many of her shoes in sizes up to a 12! What a deal!

So, lets get the shoe recommendation kicked off - the Anne Klein New York Delano wedge sandal is an excellent choice this summer. It will allow you to update your entire look with just one accessory!

They are made of cork and leather and have a fabulous ankle strap with a tiny buckle for fit. The heels on these are 4 1/2 inches, so you'll have to be comfortable with the idea of being four inches taller for a few hours before you buy these. I, for one though, think they're wonderful.

They have a padded footbed and a leather sole to help protect your feet. 100% of the customers surveyed about this shoe on Zappos said that it felt "true to size."

This is a great 'I want to wear jeans, but I don't want to wear tennis shoes with them' kind of a shoe... it would also be perfect with a cute dress or long skirt. This is a happy hour, wine tasting, movie going sort of shoe.

It's strong, yet feminine and ready for a good time!

Here's a photo of the Anne Klein New York Delano Wedge Sandal:



Sizes: 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 11, 12 (yah!)
Width: Medium or Narrow (yah!)
Color: Copper
Price: $163.95
Shipping: Free both ways from Zappos! (this is perfect so you can try them and in case they don't fit, just send them back - free of charge)

Reviewer: Ca from Alabama
This is a great looking wedge. It fits like a glove. Great feel to wear and very comfortable. Could have made the strap over the foot a little wider and made the buckle bigger and stronger. Still a great look. I ordered the size 12 and heel was 5", so didn't lose high heel effect due to larger size. I'd rate a 9.5 on 10 scale (due to buckle). Otherwise, one terrific shoe. A must if you are a wedge person.

Cool shoes! I have never purchased shoes like this before. They are very cool. The look, comfort, and fit are all superb as would be expected from Anne Klein.
