Jessica Simpson Shoes: Fun Shoes at a Great Price

Footwear News recognized The Jones Group as the company of the year. One of their licensed lines is Jessica Simpson (through Camuto).   Her line which includes not only shoes but jeans wear, jewelry, fragrance and so much more,  just reached the $750 million sales mark this year.   This is a line that is only 5 years old, but has paced so many other “celebrity” shoe lines.  When Jessica made a personal appearance 600 people were standing in line to meet her.

Another thing I like about JS shoes is that they have extended sizes.  They start at size 5 and go up to size 11.  I appreciate that since I am at the top of that range.

I wanted to focus on some Jessica Simpson shoes because they are affordable, stylish, a lot of fun for a medium price.  When I want to wear something fairly trendy, I often look at JS shoes.    Let’s look at some Jessica Simpson shoes.

Dillard’s Clearance Sale – Save up to 80% off Retail Prices!

Dillard’s department store is having a super duper online clearance sale.  Starting today, you can take an additional 40% off already reduced prices, effectively bringing you down to 80% off the retail price in some cases!  Those prices, in my opinion, are pretty darn extraordinary.  Since seeing is believing, here are some brands with prices so hard to resist, I didn’t.  I picked up both of these Cole Haan shoes and the Sperry Top-Siders before writing about them – I just couldn’t believe the prices and had to put myself into the sales queue first since I know that these will sell out fast (can you tell how excited I am?).

Cole Haan Air Elly OT Ballet; Regularly $185 and now on sale for $33;  It’s a classy silhouette that we blogged about back in 2008, and here you have in on sale!

Cole Haan Air Chole in red, pewter, or black; Regularly $195; On sale for $35 (try to beat that price, seriously!)

My darling husband is taking sailing classes.  From him, I’ve learned that the Sperry Topsider shoe brand puts out some really practical boat shoes with wonderful soles that will grip well on the boat and have soles that won’t leave ugly black treadmarks.

These Sperry Topsider ‘Coastline’ mary-janes are $28, down from $80 and while they aren’t the most fashionable shoes out there, they will be functional.

There are a ton of other shoe brands to choose from, ranging from fashionable brands like Jessica Simpson and Michael and Michael Kors

Like these Michael by Michael Kors Berkeley T-Strap; Formerly $154, Now $46-$59

or Jessica Simpson Stratia; Regularly $89 now $32

to shoe brands known more for their comfort, like Ecco, Born, Privo, Merrell, etc.

And once you are done with the shoe shopping, dare I tempt you with clothing like this Laundry by Shelli Segal Strapless Pleat-Front Dress which is $62, down from $354.

Okay, I didn’t set out to, but I’m starting to feel like I’m a salesperson right now, so I’ll just leave you to shop in peace now.  Happy online surfing!
