Baker's Shoes

Sorry for the long hiatus! Gustav threw me off schedule!

A quick one today to get back on track...



I came across these adorable shoes in a magazine recently and was surprised to see that such Chanel-esque shoes were actually from Baker's (and, guess what, they're now on sale for $59.99!). I've always had Baker's mentally filed away under super-vampy and impossibly inappropriate. For the most part, that categorization is still pretty accurate, but I was pleasantly surprised to see some really office-appropriate and fashionable options on their site, as well.

Of course, my bargain-loving heart (and feet) will always belong to DSW, but here are a few that caught my eye...



IVY - $49.99
At 4 1/2", these shoes aren't for everyone but I liked the unique cut.

GABRIEL - $49.99
Love the color, the platform heel, the stitchwork - really fun shoe!


ZEN - $159.95
Love this version of the sloucy boot for fall.


STRIKER - $89.95
For those having trouble letting go of the gladiator trend, these are a good in-between-seasons fix. These are actually by Jessica Simpson which merits its own post later - who knew she had such great shoes in her collection??

IVANKA - $79.95
I love the bootie shoe - it's been around for a few seasons but it's taken me this long to accept them. They are so unique and, when worn right, so chic. Not sure these are for everyone either but I loved the button detail on the side. Nice touch.

Stumbled upon this blog, and I must say, it's so nice to see these design sensibilities! And I so agree -- a nice surprise to see something Chanel-esque from BAKER'S. Who saw that coming?
