summer shoes.

so, by now you've figured out that i am a style genius. BUT something you don't know is that i love to shop a budget! so, not only did i pick out summer shoes for each of your summer outings, but they are all under $70! yay for me, and also for you! 


as we all know, my favorite color is mint. luckily for me, mint is very in this season. also for summer please remember to explore the coral and blush color palates (super classic colors)

oh and also, don't expect to see a sneaker heel in here, as i am physically repulsed by them.



 these boots don't exactly scream "summer" but they do scream "erin". hidden spikes and mint color? i obviously must have these. 



for the rest, if you MUST own a summer boot (which i never understood, but i guess it's a thing) please keep it light and dainty. these mint boots have a lovely dip in the top which is flattering on the ankle.  that bow? so fabulous, its a little tease of whats going on in the back! 
please don't wear them during the day, for risk you will be mistaken for a classy street walker. also i would pair them with a structured black dress and low key baubles for a martini bar night with friends. 



 flats flats flats! these are kind of nautical, kind of beachy, very wearable. i like how they mimic an espadrille - easy and classic. 
i would wear these to brunch, or during any day adventure. pair with shorts, skirts, dresses... super versatile! (ps this pair is 12 bucks- kind of a score)


ohhh baby. nothing says fancy summer nights like a metallic accessory.  this tiny gold bow is super dainty without being cutesy or little girl-ish. 
this is a total first date with a new boy heel. wear them to dinner to show off your stems and pedicure. pair with a little dress and a smile. 

these are a personal favorite. a good nude shoe is so clutch, but a platform pump is not always appropriate for the swingy summer season. these are a good sandal structure but have a hidden bad girl element with the nude spikes. 
remember that boy you went on the first date with in the black heels above? well you have a second date? or a third? these are now showing your sexy, stylish side without being off putting or distracting. since these are nude they go with everything! please wear with short short short dresses as they will make your legs look a million miles long. 

coral baby coral. look at that color. what i love about coral is that it goes flawlessly with every single skin tone. are you a pale porcelain doll like me? fabulous. are you a mocha goddess? genius. everything in between? totes amaze. the delicate straps are almost a t- strap, and they are super delicate and pretty.
these are pretty versatile. summer job interview? yep. dinner with your girlfriends? obviously. making that bitch from college jealous? of course, and she got faaaat. these can go with a crop ankle pant, or a skirt, or a dress. obviously not a causal shoe, please dont pair with ..... gulp.... denim shorts. 


ah! so conservative. but in a fun flirty way. those zig zags are super fun and a nice texture detail. plus they are in black? nothing says easy like a black shoe.
hey how are things going with that new boyfriend? oh you have to meet his folks? ahhhh ! wait! grab these shoes. they are sweet and very fun without being slutty or threatening. lets get serious, you're not going to wear flats right? unless you're meeting them in a field or a backyard bbq (see above striped flats). these would be great for a casual meet and greet at a bar or restaurant. please pair them with a dress or trousers and a summery top. 


MINT and a wacky top? sign me up. these are so fun and super trendy (which i'm normally against) but they are just so damn fun.  mint is another color that really goes with every girls skin, and every girls wardrobe. you would be surprised how much matches with mint, other mint, blue, cream, black.... if you're unsure about a color- just try it! 
wear these to a fun summer wedding! 

girls night bitches! blush and a wedge. you knew it was coming. i love the detail in the front. its fun without being in your face. 
this is such an obvious shoe! wear these EVERYWHERE. bar with the girls while you're wearing shorts and a mens v neck t shirt,  brunch with said girls the next day (maybe still in the shorts and v neck), farmers market, poolside in a tiny bikini (a little 'real housewives' but whatev), taking your niece to the zoo,  library..... anywhere! they are so fun and pretty.



ok amigos, you have my list- go forth and be fabulous!
