Whenever I wear a pair of pointy-toed shoes or boots, as I did this past weekend, my husband is prone to making comments along the lines of “Well, I can see which boots you’ll be wearing on Halloween.” This type of none-too-subtle witch reference is not lost on me. There are even those who categorically hate all pointy-toed shoes and use the phrase ‘Witch shoes’ dismissively. As for me, I simply shrug off any negativity regarding this classic style – as would anyone who has ever been lulled by the siren call of the perfect pair of pointy pumps. That perfect pair of witch pumps works its own spell on you so that you are unable to resist their particular charm.
Here’s to being the best-dressed witch in the neighborhood.
Manolo, Armani, and Weitzman, Oh My.
Manolo Blahnik Buckled Bootie $765 at Neiman Marcus
Manolo Blahnik Buckled Mary Jane $775 at Neiman Marcus
Manolo Blahnik Bow Pump $735 at Neiman Marcus
Georgio Armani d’Orsay Bootie $745 at Neiman Marcus
Stuart Weitzman ‘Mega’ Bootie $325 at Zappos.com
So many sweet pretties. *Cackle*
Okay, now that I’m back to Earth and off my broomstick, my Never Pay Retail budget tendencies are kicking in. So, here are a few somewhat more affordable alternatives for those of you currently situated in more of a bargainista than fashionista mode.
Daniblack ‘Viceroy’ Bootie Pump $112.50 $150.00at Zappos.com
Carlos by Carlos Santana ‘Vintage’ $78.00 at Zappos.com
In the end, I’m very tempted to grab these truly funky NYLA Knee-high Boots.
NYLA Janette $97.18 $190.00 at 6pm.com
I’ll get you, my pretties.

Wow! I never of the Vintage Shoe from Carlos by Carlos Santana as being "witch" shoes, until I saw them in your collection. What a cool way of interpreting them. I guess now "Black Magic Woman" takes on a whole new meaning . . .

I've never known a guy to not like a classic pair of pinty toe pumps with high heels. I personally have many pairs of pumps with 4 and 5 inch heels. Never let anyone tell you they don't make a difference. They accentuate everything feminine!
