SHOE WHORE SUNDAY
Mom's day is next weekend. Instead of giving her the traditional bouquet of flowers - which die in a week - how about giving her some flowers for her feet - which will last the whole season?
Floral prints are the best way to make mom feel both feminine and flirty, and are really fun for spring and summer.
These Guess beauties definitely live up to their name "EMPOWER2."
With their beautiful but subtle lavender flower print (complete with bees), 4 1/2 inch gold stiletto heel, sexy ankle strap, and cute yet subtle bow detail, mom will feel like she owns any room she walks into.
Their neutral background make it easy to pair these with anything, from a breezy dress to favorite jeans. And she'll feel fabulous in both! And all for about $110. Use shoes.com coupon code "MAY100" for $20 off making them a more affordable $90.
For a more 60's feel, there are also these gorgeous Naughty Monkey's, appropriately called "FLOWER POWER."
The flowers are more whimsical, inspired by a tropical theme. Yet the 3 3/4 inch high heel and brushed metal rose still gives it an edge of sophistication.
Available in both this beige, and in khaki, they too can be worn with both jeans or a fun cotton dress. And at $65 they are also affordable.
Naughty Monkey has other floral styles - all with a tropical feel - you may want to check out too, and all at a pretty good price.
Finally, so as to not leave out those mom's on the go, here are some cute flowered flats called Actress Anaconda by Chinese Laundry.
These vintage-inspired ballet flats are made of a unique snakeskin textured faux leather that gives them added interest. But a cushioning insole, flexible midsole, and flat-traction rubber outsole make them so mom's can run around and feel as fabulous as they look.
At at just under $40, you can afford to take her out for dinner too!
To all you mom's out there - Happy Mother's Day! And remember to spoil yourself! Because you deserve it :)






I just can't picture you wearing shoes with shoes with bees on them, let alone recommending them to others.
Love the flats!

Do the shoe companies pay you? Because if not, I would be emailing them and directing their attention to your free advertising.
I'm not a big flower fan, maybe because the shoes look a little busy?
