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!

If you have not yet had your fill of post-Christmas and New Years Day sales, Dillard’s has you covered on affordable shoe fashion.

In addition to today’s Boot Sale, they also have other styles of shoes on sale at 40% off as well.

Some eye-catching options in boots for you to consider:

This first boot just brings to mind the thought of sipping hot cocoa and having cozy conversation with the family in front of a warm fire.

Jessica Simpson ‘Mazzey’ $83.94 $139.

With the quilted fabric and patent contrast, this next one still looks cozy, but has a hint of edge.

Calvin Klein ‘Diamond’ $96.00 $160.

This one is all straps and buckle. Super sexy… but the warm brown tones keep it from being too in-your-face and helps keep it’s edge on the more subtle side.

Calvin Klein ‘Peg’ $89.40 $149

This one (aptly named) has a definite Western vibe. Cute for the gal who loves showing that she’s ‘A Little Bit Country’.

Reba ‘Blaze’ $59.40 $99.00.

Next, generous fringe for the Boho-Chic Moccasin lover.

Guess ‘Rami’ $135.00 $225

Next, throwing me back again to a 1980’s Janet Jackson vibe, are these sexy, kidskin, ‘marching band’ boots.

Antonio Melani ‘Mirabelle’ $118.80 $198

And, from my favorite Project Runway judge, a straight-up, unapologetically sexy, black leather boot:

Michael Kors/Michael ‘Lattington’ $178.80 $298

As for the shoe and sandal selection? Well, my attention was stolen by some fantastic Vince Camuto Styles. Too bad New Years Eve is already over … Wowza.

Vince Camuto ‘Palmer’ $62.50 $125

Vince Camuto ‘Nell’ $65.00 $130

Vince Camuto ‘Greene’ $65.00 $130

Vince Camuto ‘Nora’ $65.00 $130

I don’t know how long the sales prices are good until … So, hop on over & take a look to see if there is a perfect shoe deal to ring in your New Year.
