Fall in Love With Guess

Guess by Marciano
Style: Carrie680
Color: Light Pink
Size: 8M
Purchase Location: Dillard's
Purchase Price: originally $90 (now on sale for under $30)

I love pink, and pink loves me!

These gorgeously baby pink, closed-toe heels are just what I 'needed' for my shoe collection. I may even wear them for my wedding next summer... The height is perfect (I believe they are 4" heels), and the color is so elegant. These heels do provide some cushion for your comfort. The quality is moderate, and I recommend putting "non-slips" on the bottom of the shoes as they are slippery. ***This is actually a good idea for most heels anyway to help prevent them from wearing on the bottoms.

These shoes would be great for most workplaces, luncheons, breakfasts and simply paired with jeans. I absolutely LOVE wearing heels with jeans (2 of my favorite things).

I highly recommend these heels to any woman who loves pink or just loves heels! :)

Hot Bakers Sandals

Bakers
Style: 1319
Color: 47- White
Dept: 003
Size: 7.5
Purchase Location: Bakers
Price: under $50

I love these heels!

You may not be able to find these heels at Bakers anymore, but if you can find them on eBay, I highly recommend these beautiful, white, strappy sandal heels.

These heels are perfect for a summer day with a dress, skirt or dressy shorts. These shoes might not be appropriate for most work places. However, every woman needs some heels for herself, not just for work. These heels are great for special occasions like weddings, graduations, etc.

Bakers
Style: 1319
Color: 72-Ntrl
Dept: 003
Size: 8
Purchase Location: Bakers
Price: under $50

I also love this color!!!

However, the size 8 in the same style is a little too large for my feet. I prefer the 7.5 if wearing for longer periods of time. I bought both pairs (in different sizes) to test how they wear because they both fit fine when I tried them on in the store. I bought these shoes at different times so there may be many variables with the fit.

Wild Diva's Bronze Heels

Wild Diva (R)
Style: Cosmo-06
COlor: Bronze
Material: SNAKE PU
Size: 7.5
Purchase Location: www.cutesygirl.com
Price: under $10

Subtle beauty in metallic.

These bronze, snake-skin-looking heels have shorter than 4" heels, a subtle metallic look and a little cushion. These heels are a little more comfortable in the 7.5 size than the Anne Michelle Chrome-59 style (also in size 7.5).

These heels are great for work, luncheons and dinner dates. I recommend these shoes if you already have your basic colors and styles in your wardrobe and would like to add to your basics. I would not begin your wardrobe/ collection with these heels as they are not very high quality. If you plan to wear particular heels more often, then it might be worth your money to purchase higher-end heels (at least for your main/ staple shoes). However, the price is very good if you have been a shoe 'collector' like me... If you do not plan to wear these heels often, then the quality is fine.

Anne Michelle's Golden Shoes

Anne Michelle (R)
Style: Chrome-59
Color: GLDPU
Size: 7.5
Purchase Location: www.cutesygirl.com
Price: under $10

Metallic is in!

These bright gold, quilted heels are fun yet sophisticated, as they have pointed closed-toes. These heels fit a little snug in the 7.5, which is usually my size. (I do wear some size 8 shoes. Maybe the 8 in this style would have fit me better.) I recommend trying a half a size larger than you usually wear in heels because of these heels' particular shape, style and fit. These heels are narrow and low-cut on the heel portion. I recommend trying on these shoes before buying, buying one half size larger (and using inserts if necessary) OR buying in your normal size if you do not mind your feet getting a little squished...

These heels are perfect for work (if sitting at a desk much of the day), luncheons, dinner dates and special occasions. I do recommend these heels as they are very pretty and stylish. Metallics are in! However, these heels are not very comfortable. So if you stand or walk much of the day, I would recommend you save these for a day when you will not be on your feet as much.
