70s Platform Wedges from Skechers?

Last Friday I bought a 1970s-inspired dress during my massive shopping spree that made me crave some classic, simply wedge sandals. Probably the last place I would have thought to look was Skechers, which always makes me thing of sneakers and athletic flats. Yet, lo and behold: I went to the Skechers site to see about some new arrivals, and noticed that the sandal selection offered these "Modiste

Last Day - 40% Off Banana Republic Shoes

Today's the last day to take advantage of the Banana Republic online-only shoe sale. Your total order is 40% off; you'll also receive Free Shipping on all orders over $50.

Free Shipping at L.L. Bean

New! L.L. Bean is now offering Free Shipping. As the site painstakingly points out: no minimums, no end date. Just free! I think it's always great when major players get on board and realize that consumers simply don't want to assume the costs of shipping. I essentially refuse to shop online anywhere that tries to make me pay (although there are a few exceptions, such as when the deal is too good

New Shoes!

Check these out, I got them at DSW last weekend when I was out on a frenzied spending spree (the likes of which only happen a few times per year for me, never fear):

Me Too "Element" - Originally: $99, DSW: $49.95, Style Bard: $35

Restricted "Linda" - Originally: $55, DSW: $44.95, Style Bard: $14

Now those are some damn savvy steals, if I may say so myself.

Boots Under $100 + Flate Rate Shipping

It's warming up outside, so that means it's time to buy...nope, not sandals! Boots. I know, I know, it seems to go against logic. Unless your logic is focused on saving lots of money. For example, at 6pm, you can buy boots worth $300 and up for less than $100 due to seasonal sales.

Saturday Note from Style Bard
Well I think I'll be ready for St. Patrick's Day in about another year; in the meantime I think I can do without drunken groping by complete strangers and mayhem pouring out onto the streets of NYC all day and night. But I hope you had fun. It was, however, the perfect occasion to remind me that I still don't own green shoes, despite having been on the search for

Shoes: Fast Facts

The April 2011 issue of ShopSmart (by the same publishers as Consumer Reports) included a new set of facts about shoes and the women who love them. It's based on a phone poll conducted during January 2011, interviewing 1,0009 women over the age of 18. I picked the top ten to share with you so you can sound smart and stay informed about how other women shoe shop:

50% Off Isotoner Sandals

I swear, on Saturday I saw a handful of people wearing sandals around NYC. Me, personally? Still wearing my coat and boots to work. But if you're an optimist or just smart enough to shop early and save money, you can now buy Totes Isotoner and ESNY Sandals for 50% off (prices reflected on the page). Style Bard faves are these preppy, boat-shoe style "Constance" sandals that are now only $12. They

BOGO Shoes at Target!

It's that time again at Target: buy one pair of shoes, get the second for 50% off. It works for Payless, so why not? The only exception here is clearance items, but you can mix and match shoes and purses, so that's always nice! It's been awhile since I've taken a look at the flats out there, so I decided to peruse the selection at Target. Style Bard faves just for fun are these "Makana" cutout

Last Day for Macy's Shoe Sale

It's the last day to take 25% off in Macy's weekend shoe sale. You just have to buy at least two pairs of shoes (super easy) and then use code ADDICTED at checkout.

Saturday Note from Style Bard
Thank God for Clarks. I've been apartment hunting, which means so much trekking, especially up and down the steps of walk-ups. I have some Indigo by Clarks boots with insoles and they are a lifesaver! Highly recommended if you're hitting the sidewalks (and stairs) of New York.

Want new shoes from Gap? You can cut a hefty chunk of the cost by using code GAP2080. Take $20 off a total of $80--that's 25% off! If it's still somewhat chilly where you are, Style Bard would recommend these suede wedge booties that meet your limit at $89.95 and come in Brown or Black. I never understand why so many cute, warm shoes are made in suede; I love the luxe material myself, but it just

Donald J Pliner On Sale

Donald J Pliner honestly isn't a brand that necessarily resonates with me, but I happened to be checking out some incoming styles and found them quite appealing to my taste. Of course, the spring shoes that I love are full-priced, which means that they're not exactly within my budget just yet. But I did get to check out some of the boots and shoes on sale as well. For example, these "EITAN"

*Deal of the Week* Additional 15% Off Bluefly Shoes

Was: $288
Now: $138

I love deals on top of deals, and I've been waiting all week to tell you about this one for our *Deal of the Week.* It's an additional 15% off any Bluefly shoes that are already on sale. The means, for example, that these "Bates" lace-up booties from Report Signature are already marked down 43% before your additional 15% off. But there are so many heels, boots, sandals, flats
