Libby Edelman Bellamy booties in edgewood suede

Just how fabulous are these fringe booties? These would be great for adding some fun, texture and movement to a typically stiff and somber fall wardrobe!

Yes, they’re peep toe but I would wear my thickest socks with these if it means being able to wear them well into fall. Okay, so maybe they’re not the most practical shoes for the fall season but when boots are as cute as these, you know you’d want to get as much mileage out of them as you can.

My first choice is really the black suede below but I chose to feature the taupe suede first because you can see the gold chains interspersed with the fringes on that color better.

This black suede uses a dark grey, almost black color for its metal parts while the grey suede that follows it uses a shiny silver color:

These booties also feature a metallic 4″ heel and a similar metallic 3/8″ platform sole. These previously $129.00 booties are now marked down to $90.30 and you can shop for them at 6pm.

P.S. They’re also available albeit a bit more expensive at Zappos and Shoes, but you can get free shipping both ways at those websites! And don’t forget about our sister site’s special “YOURNEXTSHOES” coupon code — use that at Shoes to get a nice 15% off your purchase.

Nicole was of course dressed in her signature bohemian style and wore her own designs from her Winter Kate and House of Harlow 1960 clothing lines.

For that gorgeous day at the fair, Nicole wore a Winter Kate Moonbeam silk ivory blouse paired with Paige Premium Denim Silverlake shorts. She kept the sun off her face with a Tom Ford wide-brimmed floppy hat and a pair of House of Harlow 1960 Emily sunglasses, and toted her things in a Simone Camille handbag.

Here are pictures of Nicole Richie making her way to the Malibu Fair:

 The pièce de résistance of Nicole Richie’s outfit for us boot lovers is of course her Minnetonka Tramper ankle hi boots:

Nicole Richie has had these boots for quite a while now and they look like they’re wearing out well.

Here are just some of the previous outfits Nicole Richie styled with these boots and amazingly, she looks great each and every time:

It’s like these boots can be paired with absolutely anything and be part of any everyday casual look!

Here’s a closer look at Nicole Richie’s boots:

So when the paps caught him catching a flight out of Toronto, Canada wearing this cool-looking pair of boots yesterday, I quickly grabbed the chance to feature him here on our blog today:

Hayden Christensen makes his way into the Toronto Pearson International Airport in Toronto, Canada on August 23, 2011

We’ve only written about Hayden Christensen once before but his boot of choice then were the super popular, celebrity favorite, forever classic All Saints Military boots.

You know the guy’s got good taste in shoes.

For his flight yesterday, he revealed some more of that good taste with these ultra-cool ‘Pilotto’ boots from Select by Creative Recreation:

Creative Recreation Select Pilotto boots

You can probably judge from the close-up shot that Hayden Christensen has already gotten some wear out of these boots. They don’t take to wearing and tearing quite as well as his All Saints boots but they’re still nice enough to have caught our eye.

These boots feature a rust-colored leather and mesh upper, an across-the-ankle velcro strap, a side zip entry, lace-up closures and a treaded rubber outsole.

These shoes retail for around $200.00 depending on where you buy them. You can find a pair now going for $209.99 at PickYourShoes.

This brown suede and leather version is also available now at Amazon:

But I think that doesn’t matter much anyway because when have we shoe lovers ever turned down the chance to get shoes at a fraction of their retail price? : )

From now until 11:59PM CST on August 15th, Shoes is taking an extra 25% off on ALL their sale shoes. Styles from the women’s, men’s and children’s departments are all included — all you gotta take note of is if the shoe that you want is already on sale.

“25SALE” is the coupon code to enter at checkout to receive your discount for this sale. Shipping is free only in the US but I’ve got good news for non-US based customers: Shoes has just started offering flat rates on international shipping!

Shipping to Canada is 9.99 CAD (for orders over 100 CAD), to the UK is 6.99 GBP (for orders over 100 GBP), and for the rest of the world, it’s 19.99 USD. Those are unbeatable rates no matter where you look and Shoes’ partnering with global e-commerce company FiftyOne pretty much guarantees that they can ship anywhere in the world.

I don’t think I need to tell you that this sale is a great event to start looking for some fall/winter boot styles. We should all be looking at some sensible fall/winter boots but I know what we all want to really see — the fabulous, sexy and maybe even impractical boot styles!

The flat, low-heeled leather boots run aplenty but if you scour the sale, you’ll run into little gems such as these.

Look through these picks and then head over to to Shoes STAT — remember, these shoes are only at an extra 25% off until Monday!

Now whether to think that that’s part of an eco-conscious/cruelty-free movement or just a ploy to lower the prices is entirely up to you, but what’s undeniable is that Michael Antonio has got some very sexy, very stylish and very fierce-looking shoes.

It’s like they’ve only got one type of customer — the femme fatale.

Among their new offerings for the “deadly woman” or rather, the mysterious and seductive woman, is this lusciously lean Michael Antonio Becca boot:

Michael Antonio Becca faux suede knee high boots in black, brown, grey and navy

Michael Antonio Becca faux suede knee high boots

Long, slim, smooth and sleek — how to describe this boot is the same as how to describe the Michael Antonio woman!

The Becca features a 4 1/2″ heel, a 5/8″ platform and a 15 1/2″ tall boot shaft. An inside zip helps you get in and out of it but there are also hidden elastic gores near the top to assist with the on/off wear.

And all of this goes for just $79.00. Sure it’s faux suede but if you can’t be bothered with the high maintenance that comes with cleaning and protecting real suede, faux is the way to go!

The Michael Antonio Becca faux suede knee high boot comes in the four colors shown above. All colors can be found on Endless and Amazon but if it’s the black or brown that you’re eyeing, better get it at Shoes instead.

Why? Well simply because you can use our sister site YourNextShoes‘ special coupon code with them and get a nice 15% off your purchase. Just enter the coupon code “YourNextShoes” at checkout to receive your discount!

Our sister site YourNextShoes first spotted Selena wearing them while she was in London last July 5th and she’s actually worn them on at least five occasions since! So basically, she’s worn the boots every single day on average since we first saw them on her.

Here are the boots we’re talking about and the different times Selena wore them. Even if you’re not a Selena fan, you might’ve noticed these boots too because they’re really kind of hard to miss:

Selena Gomez leaves her hotel in London, England on July 5, 2011

Selena Gomez launches Disney Channel HD with a special showcase at the Hospital Club in London, England on July 6, 2011

Selena Gomez stops by the AllSaints store on Oxford Street in London, England on July 6, 2011

Selena Gomez leaves the Metropolitan in London, England on July 7, 2011

Selena Gomez steps out of an exclusive members-only Century Club in London, England on July 7, 2011

Here’s a closer look at the heel detail on Selena’s hardworking boots:

If you’re a Sam Edelman fan, you’d instantly recognize this spiked and studded heel detail because this design has kind of become the shoe label’s signature “fierce” style!

We’ve seen them on pumps, we’ve seen them on sandals and now they’re on these ankle boots:

We’ve actually spotted them on a new Sam Edelman boot style too but we’ll save that for another post.

Selena Gomez’s boots are these Sam Edelman Renzo ankle boots in putty suede (also comes in black suede). They retail for $250.00 just about everywhere but with our sister site’s “YourNextShoes” coupon code, you can get 10% off on them at Shoes!

Other retailers that carry these boots are Endless, Amazon and Bloomingdales. Only Bloomingdales has a size 7 as of writing but if that’s not your size, you know where we recommend you get them at a discount!

It is MADNESS out there I tell ya.

I’m going out of my mind trying to get them all down and here’s the easiest way I found to keep track of all of them — via list form.

It is MADNESS out there I tell ya.

I’m going out of my mind trying to get them all down and here’s the easiest way I found to keep track of all of them — via list form.

Here are the 20 Independence Day sales you should not miss this 2011, starting with those that are actual Independence Day sales followed by those that are just extensions of summer-long sales.

Either way, you’re going to enjoy some guilt-free shopping given the massive discounts at these online boutiques:

1. Steve Madden

One of our go-to shoe brands Steve Madden is giving an additional 20% off on all clearance and sale items in their “Star Spangled Sandals, Pumps & More!” sale. Discount is already reflected in the price and shoes from both the women and men’s department are included.

Sale starts July 1st and ends on Monday, July 4th.

2. Tobi

Tobi has always had a sale category on their website but they upped the ante just for Independence Day. They’ve included more styles, added further markdowns and extended their sale to 4 days.

This sales is ongoing July 1st to July 4th.

3. BarefootTess

A site dedicated to large shoe sizes, BarefootTess is slashing 25% off specifically on red, white and blue shoes! Use the coupon code “RWB25” to get your discount when you shop with them this holiday weekend only.

4. Old Navy

While we’ve never really featured anything from Old Navy yet, you’re going to want to shop with them this weekend because prices are starting at just a measly $5 in their Independence Day sale!

They’ve also got a cute pair of faux suede short cowboy boots that are going for just $39.94 and are sold exclusively on their website.

Sale ends July 4, 2011.

5. DNA Footwear

Take 25% off sitewide at DNA Footwear with the promo code “JULY25“. This code excludes UGG Australia products but it is valid until July 6th so you’ve got an extra couple more days of shopping.

6. ShoeMetro

Shave 20% off your entire purchase with the code “SUMMERSALE1” at ShoeMetro. Offer ends July 5, 2011.

7. Shoebacca

And for the last of the Independence Day sales, Shoebacca is offering up to a massive 60% off on thousands of styles in their 4th of July sale.

Aside from offering one of the biggest discounts, this sale is also one of the longest: this is ongoing until July 8, 2011.

*****************

And now, for the non-Independence Day but must-check-out-anyways sales:

8. Nine West

Nine West has added more new styles to their up to 60% off sale.

Plus, get to enjoy $20 off on orders of $100 or when you shop at their website. No promo code is needed. Offer ends July 4, 2011 at 11:59PM ET.

9. AllSaints

Although the ever-popular Damisi boot isn’t included, AllSaints do have some rockin’ boots in their up to 50% off on select styles sale.

And they’re from AllSaints so the quality, the type of leather and the craftsmanship is pretty much guaranteed. I would say that getting ANY pair of AllSaints boots at 50% off is considered a sweet score.

10. Shoes

Shoes is advertising their 4th of July Sandal sale where you save 15% off on all sandals with the promo code “FREEDOM“. But what they’re NOT advertising is this secret code that takes 20% off on your ENTIRE order regardless of what shoes you buy!

The code? It’s “SECRET20“. It’s valid from now until July 5, 2011. You’re welcome!

11. Endless

Endless already placed massive discounts on a lot of their items in their Endless Summer sale, but they weren’t satisfied with that and offered another 20% off ON TOP of all their summer items on sale!

It’s called a “summer” sale but there are PLENTY of perfect for fall and even winter boots included in it.

12. Piperlime

Piperlime has got a lot of great deals included in their Lime Tag Sale. The great thing about this one is that the discounts are already reflected in the prices so you can get to shopping straight away.

13. Jessica Simpson

Jessica Simpson‘s summer sale is slashing another 30% off on all sale items! Enter the code “PLUS30” at checkout to get your extra discount.

Valid until July 10, 2011.

14. Singer22

They’ve actually also got a Firework sale going on where you save $50 on $300+ orders with the code “SPARKLER50“. Save $200 on $1000+ orders with the code “SPARKLER200“.

15. Boutique To You

Another celebrity fashion site, BoutiqueToYou lets you take an additional 30% off with the code “30SALE“.

16. Shopbop

Shopbop‘s further marked down plenty of their Spring/Summer 2011 designer items in their summer sale.

17. Revolve Clothing

We also find a lot of celebrity-worn items at Revolve Clothing. Even if you don’t follow celebrity fashion, you just might find something you like at their summer sale which is taking up to 95% off on over 4,400 items!

18. Luisa Via Roma

We sometimes go to LuisaViaRoma to identify expensive high end designer labels. Now that their up to 70% off summer sale has started, maybe we can drop the words “sometimes” and the “expensive” from the previous sentence.

19. Neiman Marcus

You know we love Neiman Marcus for carrying the most high fashion stuff. They’re also taking up to 55% off on those things we often find ourselves drooling over.

20. Jildor Shoes

Lastly, Jildor Shoes. They say on their website that it’s time for their semi-annual up to 50% off sale and our answer to that is “we’re there”.

Happy shopping everyone!

But now that we’re officially a little over two weeks into spring — and much too late to be holding on to last season’s boots — we figured that NOW is the perfect time feature these shoes.

So even though we’re ...Read more »]]> Our sister site Your Next Shoes already wrote about these shoes we’re featuring today way back in January but that was when they were desperate for new spring shoe styles and we were still reveling in all the gorgeous fall/winter boots.

But now that we’re officially a little over two weeks into spring — and much too late to be holding on to last season’s boots — we figured that NOW is the perfect time feature these shoes.

So even though we’re a little late in writing about them here on Boots 4 You compared to most blogs, we think your disappointment with us will disappear once you lay eyes on these wondrous Whirl wedge booties from Carlos by Carlos Santana:

Carlos by Carlos Santana Whirl wedge booties, $119.95

Here’s our peace offering, in the form of these lovely wear-with-all-your-spring-and-summer-outfits wedge booties.

The Carlos by Carlos Santana Whirl wedge booties feature a snake-embossed leather upper accented with tonal patent leather on the ankle strap, soles and along the back of the heel. You can adjust the buckled ankle strap according to how you want it to fit but it’s that sexy back zipper that’s the real entry of this shoe!

A word of warning though: the height on that covered wedge heel is a staggering 4 inches so if you’re not comfortable with that, we suggest you leave it to the pros. Not only because that’s a HIGH heel to teeter on but also because these wedge booties don’t have any platform sole whatsoever to help balance out the heel height.

But if you are willing to tolerate pain for fashion (and study shows that 60% of women are), then here are a few places where we recommend you get the Carlos by Carlos Santana Whirl wedge booties:

1. Shoebuy - Shoebuy is having their once a year spring sale right now so here’s your chance to get these wedge booties (and more!) at 15% off. Use the coupon code “SPRING15” at checkout to receive your discount.
2. Shoes – They have these wedge booties listed at their original price ($120.00) but if you use our sister site’s coupon code “YOURNEXTSHOES” at checkout, you get 15% off on them!
3. 6pm – They only have the black color and very limited sizes of these wedge booties, but if you’re a size 7.5 or a 9.5, you can get the Whirls for just $84.00 (30% off).

Happy shoe shopping (and we hope you’ve forgiven us)!

The two were spotted leaving their apartment last Tuesday and then were later seen leaving an office building in New York:

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen leave their NYC apartment on March 15, 2011

One of the Olsen twins leaves an office building in New York on March 15, 2011

I’m pretty sure that the Olsen in the “crazy” outfit in the first picture is Ashley. That’s her nose, mouth, chin and that’s even her stance. But the second set of pictures has got me confused because although that that’s Ashley’s outfit, that kind of looks like Mary Kate’s face.

Someone help me out here – is this Mary Kate or is this Ashley Olsen?

At any rate, though the fur hat, the navy blazer-dress-harem-pant hybrid and the red Prada is a bit out there, I’m still loving the boots.

Mary Kate/Ashley Olsen is wearing these leather chelsea boots from Dries Van Noten:

That semi-wedge heel is so distinctively Dries Van Noten. You can get these for $415.00 (marked down from $589.00) at MyTheresa.

Here are 4 more less expensive but just as fashionable alternatives to the Dries Van Noten leather chelsea boots:

1. Calvin Klein Weslynn, $151.05 (was $159.00)
2. Circa Joan & David Ramonda, $90.02 at Endless, $95.40 at Zappos (was $159.00)
3. Lauren Ralph Lauren Mara, $75.50 (was $151.00)
4. Tory Burch Troy Gored Platform Booties, $212.50 (was $425.00)
