It’s as hot and humid as Hell’s Kitchen outside, so what’s a girl to do to satisfy her shoe obsession? Shop online, of course! Here are a few deals, no, make them steals, on the net for you today–last chance to snatch last season’s styles at bargain prices.

If you’re a size 5 or 6, these Jeffrey Campbell ‘Viper’ low pumps are stylish and cute, with a hint of Western flair and golden accents–AND they’re only $22 at Barefoot Tess:

If you’re a size 6, you can’t beat the $45 tag on these chic and comfy Kate Spade ‘Libby’ moccasins, in snakeskin-embossed leather with luggage trim:

If you’re a 6.5, 7, or 8.5, you may want to snatch these beautiful Sigerson Morrison ‘Leann’ low peep-toe wedges, in a beautiful, rich caramel color; they are reduced from $295 to $139:

If you’re an 8, 9, or really, just about any size, may I recommend a contemporary classic: Charles by Charles David ‘Bloom’ flat with flower detail on the vamp, available in numerous color combos (though not all available in all sizes), and reduced from $105 to $46:

If you’re a 9 (10, 11, and even 12), dip your toes in these simple yet fab ankle-strap John Fluevog ‘Labretta’ flats, now $53 down from about $175:

For the size 10: These Lambertson Truex ‘Goldie’ sandals are reduced from $375 to $160–a fabulous deal, but hurry: there’s only a month or so left to enjoy them this season!

Finally, if you’re a size 10 or 11, these very attractive Matt Bernson ‘Samantha’ flats will carry you gracefully into the fall (only $39, down from $153):

Happy bargain shopping, shoe-lovers!

This beautiful Lambertson Truex creation, spun in gold stolen from a particularly bright summer midday and held together with delicate buckles on a sandy footbed, is a goddess’ dream come true. Two inverted golden wishbones cross paths on the vamp; perhaps they’ll make my dream of owning them come true?

Encouragingly, they are also on sale now, $150 less than the original price at Plaza Too (look for it under the Sale section).

Hi there! Hope you’re all enjoying your holiday sales. I know I am (hint: if the sale assistants at Banana Republic know you by your first name, that’s probably a sign you spend way too much time–and money–in that store). Ahem. But were was I? Oh, I know. My renewed obsession with animal prints.

It all started innocently enough with my routine browsing of the Neiman Marcus online collection (there’s no Neiman in the vicinity of Philly, so yep, I have to go online). And so it was that I discovered these faaahbulous Lambertson Truex tall leopard print suede boots and I started drooling with desire. I know they’re $645, thank you, but! gorgeous! sex-ay! sensible heel! Can you imagine yourself slinking through the urban jungle in these? Well, I can, and it’s an image I’m very fond of.

It kinda went downhill from there, as I discovered these Dolce & Gabbana zebra print loafers, and my heart started pumping dangerously fast:

So by the time I stumbled across these cream zebra print Manolo Blahnik flats, I would have sold my soul to the devil for one of these pairs. Ok, maybe not ‘eternal damnation’ sold, but perhaps in a ‘work for Anna Wintour for a month’ way. 

I do have in fact a pair of sensible Donald J. Pliner leopard print loafers with black leather trim and red sole  (these), but somehow they don’t feel either glamorous nor over-the-top, like I feel right now. I feel a shopping spree coming up….
