*Deal of the Week* 10% Off Best-Sellers at Bluefly

For less than a week from today, you can take an additional 10% off select best-selling shoes (and apparel) at Bluefly. Typically, sale items are stuff a retailer is trying to sell from last season or clear out for new merchandise, but now you can actually save on some of the hottest styles right now, like these 'Woodstock' metallic wedges by Stuart Weitzman. They're already 46% off before your

New Shoe Markdowns at Shopbop

Yay! I love this announcement. New items have been added to the excellent sale selection at Shopbop, which means those shoes you were coveting yesterday (yet being fiscally responsible and refusing to purchase) are now 30-70% off whatever price they used to be! Isn't it great to be rewarded for making smart, hard choices? Options now marked down include these Tory Burch 'Rory' crochet flats,

Sale on ASOS Shoes

Popular UK-based retailer ASOS is now having a huge site-wide sale on shoes. Your favorite styles from across the sea are now up to 70% off, including these somewhat frightening but certainly eye-catching 'PETAL' corsage court shoes, now less than £30. Free delivery and returns on orders within the UK; but don't worry, ASOS offers fair low prices for international shipping, too!

65% Off Two Lips Shoes at 6PM

Two Lips shoes are just too cute! I love a lot of risks that the designs take, pushing the envelope with extra little details and bold color combinations. I was going to use a shoe called 'Twilite' as an example, because it paired bronze and lime green jewel tones in an interesting way, but I'm honestly so sick of Twilight hullabaloo that I couldn't bear too. Instead, check out these 'Neverland'

$5 Off New Wedges from TOMS

Spring 2010 debuted the first line of wedges from TOMS. This Fall, new wedge styles are being released, anticipated to be just as popular and in-demand. You can get ahead of the style curve by getting your hands on these new looks now on the website, where styles sell for about $69. But through the end of the month, you can actually save $5. Just use code SUMMER5. And of course, for every pair

*Deal of the Week* 25% Off Banana Republic Shoes

This weekend, save 25% off any Banana Republic order, including shoes, when you use your BR Card. First of all: If you don't have a BR Card, get one. It's not only great for discounts on the website and in stores, often qualifying owners for special deals, but it also works at sister-stores Old Navy, Gap and Piperlime. This is why my credit cards from this family of stores is so beat up it no

Stuart Weitzman Shoes up to 80% Off at 6PM

Especially known for dress and wedding shoes, Stuart Weitzman consistently puts out regal footwear that women want to own. But sometimes this reputation makes me forget what gorgeous everyday shoes the brand can put out, such as these stunning 'Rollpump' wedges that are now on my must-have list. Originally selling for more than $200, these can now be mine for less than $100. All Stuart Weitzman

Two Days Left - 20% Off Converse at Piperlime

Converse is an iconic brand that has by far transpired its sports gear origins to make a permanent mark in the fashion world and music scene. And now for a limited time, all Converse brand sneakers (also known as Chuck Taylors or just 'Chucks') at Piperlime are now marked down by 20%. A range of low- and high-top styles are offered, including these laceless slip-ons favored by Style Bard. Today

Save on Contemporary Shoes from Bluefly

Tomorrow only, save on any pair of Contemporary Shoes you buy from Bluefly! (And yes, that's a category on the website, not an arbitrary descriptor.) Not only can you receive a special discount in this one day sale, but the discount improves the more you shop. For example, you'll save 10% on one pair of shoes, but you'll receive 15% off two pairs of shoes and 20% off three pairs! Summer styles

25% Off Clearance Shoes at Macy's

All clearance shoes are now marked down by an additional 25% at Macy's! This means that total savings are now about 45-60% off their original price, and that goes for all styles and brands. Style Bard faves are these 'Lorna' sandals from INC. Despite making such an impact with all that metallic hardware, the cream color and streamlined look basically par this hot heel down to a neutral you can

These men's shoes you're looking at? They're 'Gibson' leather driving loafers from Banana Republic. And although they originally sold for $98, they're marked down to $59.99. But wait! There's more! (Yes, I went there.) With the current deal at Banana Republic, you can save an additional 25% off your purchase of items already on sale, including women's and men's shoes. Just use code BRSALE25 to

*Deal of the Week* 30% Off Pour La Victoire Shoes

I look at a lot of shoes in life as well as in the process of writing this blog. More than anyone else I know, and certainly more than even the shoe-lovingest of fashionistas should. So believe me, it means something when I say that I could look at Pour La Victoire shoes all day long and not get bored. Each one intriguing me more than the next, checking out the shoes now on sale at Endless.com is

20% Off Pre-Fall Shoes at Piperlime - One Day Sale!

I typically don't like to do two similar posts in one week, but how was I to know that Piperlime would have a sneak attack sale for pre-Fall? Today only, you can order shoes that aren't yet available at the discounted rate of 20% off. And unlike other pre-order deals, your shoes will actually ship at a regular interval, so if you aren't intimidated by the heat or being unseasonal, you can wear

Choose from any on-sale shoes, use code EXTRA20 when you check out and then suffer for 3-5 business days while your amazing new bounty arrives. Hey,

Fall is coming! ...eventually. But you can start shopping now by pre-ordering items at Moxsie. And if you do, you can save 15% off on merchandise that will certainly cost more come September. You do have to register first, but I just did and it takes two seconds, do don't freak out when you go to take a gander and a little form pops up. Once you're through you can explore styles like these funky

New Styles Added to Aldo Shoe Sale

I love announcements that new shoes have been added to sales. It means you can immediately jump over to check out the wares knowing that just yesterday someone bought these shoes for full price, but that you will be able to save money that they couldn't. Also, it means you get to shop the newly reduced looks before they sell out in your size. Aldo's sale selection has just been updated, so you

Lime Tag Sale Now 50% Off

Remember this? Well the Piperlime Lime Tag sale just got even better, because styles that were originally marked down by up to 40% are now marked down by up to 50%! Sure, this means that many of the sizes in the bestselling shoes might be gone, but it also makes the hunt for the best deal that much more exciting. Sure, someone may have been smart enough to hit up the sale before you, but you get

Options include comfort brands such as Bandolino and Clark's as well as designer lines from BCBG and DKNY.

20% Off Hot Topic Shoes

For the entire month of July, take 20% off all orders over $45. Usually for this kind of deal you have to spend upwards of $100, so I think $45 is extremely fair--although a somewhat strange number! I'd love to know what kind of genius formula came up with it, or if it was plucked out of a hat. Anyway, all you have to do is add the correct amount to your cart and use code HTAJULY. Then get these

Last Day - 30% Off Scarpasa Shoes!

I love so many of the shoes on this site, comprised of contributions from designers in Italy, Spain and Brazil. They're original, high-quality designs that really stand out from a lot of the plastic replicas that bore my eyes to death when I'm shoe scouting on the subway and on the streets of NYC. And now you can get them for 30% off their regular price! Just use code JULY4TH when you're ready to

Happy Independence Day!
Looking for shoes as hot as the holiday?
These Jean Paul Gaultier stilettos are now on sale at Endless.
Sorry for the unexpected break last week; the first half was busy and the second half I was sick--don't worry, I'm feeling a little better already! I decided that since the week was ending in a holiday weekend anyway it would be a good time to take a little break, but
