Chie Mihara - Suede Mary Jane Pump

Chie Mihara - Suede Mary Jane Pump comes in blue or black. With its contrasting black patent piping and heel, of course I lean towards the jewel-tone blue. Brilliant with mod inspired dresses, a feminine touch to classic menswear, or can you say glam? I sure can and I love it...

Marc by Marc Jacobs - Leather Pumps

As soon as I saw this shoe, I couldn't stop staring. I simply adore it. Marc by Marc Jacobs - Leather Pumps has got this amazingly french femme aire to it. Plus the 40s style heel and the vintage coloring make it fun and functional. The little black bow add a touch of scandal. Oo la la.

Jeffrey Campbell - Pia

Shoejunkies. I guess the powers that be have decided that what is classic is trendy again. But guess what... Classic doesn't have to be trendy, that why it's classic. So with that in mind, Jeffrey Campbell has got a real winner with Pia. When can you ever go wrong with a t-strap maryjane? Um... Never... Simultaneously feminine yet very walkable. A cross between the 40s glam and flapper goodness. Textured tights with luxurious pieces will rock this shoe. One of those looks to dress up or edge down $79.99 @Shoes.com

Nine West - Liatris

I love when I can mix next season's trends with summer sales. Nine West Liatris, which has morphed with us since last year has come back for fall in what they call dark blue suede. But I see more sapphire. Tomato/tomato... Call it what you like, but here's your jewel-tone suede with a covered gold platform. This proves classic design is always en vogue because it's classic. (duh) $59.99 - $89.00 on sale @NineWest.com

Nine West - Neews

l know you see Nine West frequently here. But they frequently have interesting takes on the trends. So to me this one, Neews, is no exception. It's like a trendy best of. You have your metallic, your mod graphic, and platform all elegantly juxtaposed in a peep-toe wedge. You know what to do when summer is searing us indoors. Look towards fall. It's a nice compliment to those summer frocks we're still in and the the fall jewel-tones still to come. $92.95 @Zappos

Nine West - Metropop

Okay Shoejunkies, I know fall is coming. But it's still sweltering here in Baltimore/DC. Maybe it's hard to look forward to jacket/sweater weather. This one should make it easy. Metropop by Nine West is playing on the less talked about trend of graphic schemes and mixed textures with it's black suede and gray satin. What satin filtered into fall? Why yes. Mod looks or 40s/50s glam work this shoe. I also love the 40s style heel. It ships around mid August, but there's always pre-order $79.00 @NineWest.com

Nine West - Vasca

Oh sweet jeweltoned satin. Some trends from the big fashion houses take longer to filter than others. Not this one. Check out the new Nine West - Vasca, in purple and fushcia satin. This pump is fabulous. Perfect to make a totally girlly maryjane statement with a little wing tip power. They're on pre-order now. Available in stores later next month. Perfect touch with the "little black dress." $89.00 @ NineWest.com
