Nude is the New Black

Today's Shoe of the Day inspired this blog post. Yes, nude is in! I can't even tell you how happy I am to see this as a trend, I am DYING to own a pair of sexy nude pumps. They're hot and they're versatile, everyone needs at LEAST one pair in their collection.

I've seen some great ones so far by Steve Madden, Nine West, and BCBGeneration that would make any girl swoon.



Nude pumps by BCBGeneration

These babies are going to be mine soon, I've tried them on and I am in love. You wouldn't think it from looking at them, but they are comfy. My only gripe is that the shoe is a bit pointed where the seams come together at the toe, it reminds me a bit of an elf shoe. It's hardly noticeable while wearing though, so I can overlook the flaw. I'm also liking how the platform of this shoe is hidden by the patent. I find that quite often platforms look a bit cheap, and I think my co-worker hit the nail on the head when she said it was hard to find a pump that didn't look like a "hooker shoe". This one is classy while still being on point with what's in now.

Who doesn't love a cute peep toe? This pump leans more on the beige side than the BCBGeneration heel and unfortunately I've realized beige just doesn't work with my skin tone. I would love to be able to pull this fun shoe off but it's just not going to happen, but I can say my wallet is happy about it. I've always loved Nine West, I find they make fashionable footwear that is of a high quality so even though they are often on the pricey side, I don't mind spending the money because I know what I'm buying will last.

Last but not least, a simply classic heel. This is a shape we all need in our collection and in several colours. Most women will have this staple in black already because of it's versatility. You can wear them with a suit but you can also pair them with a cute pair of jeans and a tee. I think in this economy a lot of us are thinking about how often we can use what we are buying, it may not make sense to buy the glittery purple heel we can only wear with that one dress but the nude heel we can wear almost anywhere? THIS makes sense. Jeans, skirts, dresses, morning, daytime, night.. the shoe can go anywhere, anytime which is why YOU (and I) need it.
