Peep-toes continue to be all the rage for fall, and I love that it’s now chic to wear them with tights! Black and gray tights are obvious, but I also encourage you to mix it up with some fun patterns or even bright colors.
Here are some of my favorite affordable peep-toes!
Paris Hilton Destiny Pump $93 Zappos
Yves Saint Laurent has come out with some incredibly beautiful and sexy shoes this season, but unfortunately these shoes do not fit that description! I compare the sleek and elegant Tribute Double-Platform Pump to these sandals and just wonder “why??” The straps and stiletto heel of this sandal are gorgeous, but the rubber “tire-track” bottom is just bizarre and clumsy looking. Maybe I’m just too old? I imagine someone young and hip could pull them off, but I definitely don’t think these sandals are for most people, and they certainly aren’t timeless!
These sandals appeal to everything that is girly in me! They make me want to put on a sundress and skip through the park with flowers in my hair. Well, not really … but I do love them!! I think they would be gorgeous with a black cocktail or evening dress or you could save them for sundresses next spring! They are definitely timeless.

I reviewed a gorgeous Nicholas Kirkwood pump on Tuesday, and I talked about the artistry of his designs. This slingback uses the same satin and snakeskin, but it is definitely more artistic. I can appreciate that the form of this shoe is beautiful, but personally I wouldn’t wear them. I can, however, see a very confident women who takes fashion risks rocking tbem.
It’s odd, but Christian Louboutin’s shoes usually fall into two categories for me. I either absolutely adore them, or I absolutely hate them. And these shoes are in the latter category. I just feel like the pleated chiffon structure of the top of the shoe looks like giant insect wings. I would also be very concerned that the chiffon could easily tear or snag. There are so many gorgeous loubies out there that it would be a shame to waste your money on these!

If you are on a budget, one of the best ways to prioritize your shoe funds is to splurge on the basics, but spend less on trends that may not still be popular next year. Purple is one of those trends. It is super hot for fall, but it could easily fall to the wayside by next year. However, you can wear a basic Christian Louboutin black pump for years to come. I’ve found some cute purple shoes that will keep you trendy, but won’t break the bank!
This is a beautiful, timeless boot. The caramel suede is classic and will go with everything. Although they are pricey, these boots aren’t going out of style any time soon! They are also available in black leather and black and purple suede. Although the purple is fun and very popular for the season, if you’re looking for a fashion investment, stick with either the black or camel.
