Really Obsessed With: Studded Shoes

I just want to direct your attention to just how freakin' sick these shoes are. If I'm not mistaken, they're both from this one place on Lafayette St. (all you in the area, help a girl out with the name?). The entire store is stocked to the brim with custom-studded shoes, boots and jackets as well as vintage tees, distressed denim and everything else you could imagine showing up in a kool person's closet. I'm KICKING myself for not picking something up while I was there, but maybe one day I'll be able to cash in on the studded fun.

Mad Delusions: Marc Jacobs Booties

I'm a little bummed about leaving New York next week. But you wanna know the best type of therapy for this? Shoes. Shoes. Ohmygawd, shoes. These Marc Jacobs booties would be the perfect pick me up to get me through the next couple weeks. Seriously, they're perfect. Jewel toned, ribbon laced, with a chunky heel? Someone figure out how to hook me up to an IV drip filled with these babies, and I'll be back with a blogging vengeance sooner than you can say shucks.

Really obsessed with: two-toned pumps

THESE are delightful! I rarely wear pumps (they're usually too cutesy of a shoe for me), but the cone heel, mustard yellow, patent leather and suede upper have got me in a shoe daze. Sure they're kinda pricey, but my birthday is only (er) 3 months away, and I'm sure the price will creep down soon enough.

Driving Soles for Manhattan Streets

Tod's elasticized, pebble-soled ballerina flat is possibly the most perfect "walk around the city" shoe. Unfortunately, this student's income just doesn't allow for $300 shoes... especially not three pairs of $300 because deciding between these would be an impossibility.

Pop the Cork...

I really want these sweet Marc by Marc Jacobs shoes. They are cute and corky quirky, and would go with everything...

Best of all, they're insanely affordable. Well, in terms of Marc, they are insanely affordable.
