Did somebody say, "Stuart."

You know shoes and my dear Stuie are the only things that could get me to break my sabbatical.

I'm wearing these to a "Paris is Burning" drag show tonight. I've had 'em for months and I finally have an event worthy of these old Hollywood Glama type shoes. You know I gotta let the girls have it cuz they'll be coming for me.

I truly love Stuart's design's and the fact that most of his shoes are so comfy to be 4+ inches. I've bought about 30 pairs of his shoes in less than two years. I shudder to think how much I've spent. And even though I haven't worn 'em all yet, each one was worth EVERY penny. Love me some Stuie.

well those are nice in that clip im just dreading the knockoffs and the people who should not be wearing them

Nice. I've been buying Stuarts since the early 90's. His shoes definitely fit my style.

I always thought his shoes were too conservative and old lady-ish based on what the buyers at the department stores choose to stock. Even the SW boutiques have a horrible selection IMO. It wasn't until I found Zappos that I realized how funky most of his shoes are. It's been a wrap ever since.

those look !

Last night, several queens threatened to hit me over the head and steal my shoes and handbag. That's always a mixed compliment cuz some of them girls are rough trade and will actually do that shit.

Hey, honey bunny.

SCNDLS said:

so many will be hatin' on you with that handbag too!!! You have awesome taste, just as awesome as those calves... BITCH!

Your feet look hot in those... that is a sexy shoe!

Oh SCNDLS!!!

I love the way they look on my feet. They come in brown and black too but there's just something about that purple. I got the cola brown and though they were cute I sent 'em back. They still have my size tho.

SCNDLS said:

hot-2-def chica!

SCNDLS said:

I agree on the purple - it's insanity, brown or black just wouldn't pop the same. Damn, I would even rock those my damn self, lol! & I literally don't own a single thing in purple, but those would be the exception - I'd just get a bag & wear them w/ black... insanely cute!

SCNDLS said:

I didn't like them in the orignal pic but they look waaaay better on. I even like the colour now.

JustErin said:

me too..the calves are looking nice 2

SCNDLS said:

again...

they look even better with a human in them...

sweet said:

Thanks sweets.

RenHoek said:

WOW! These look waay better on the foot than they did in the picture!

CalhounSq said:

That's what I did last night. I've just recently been adding purple to my repertoire. It's a good way too punch up all black.
I'm surprised at how much attention purple shoes and handbags get.

SCNDLS said:

Girl, you're gonna have me buying purple up in this mf!!

O.K., so I really wanted *these* Stuarts:





But because of my severe budget limitations right now, I got *these* Stuarts instead:



A little more matronly, true, but I couldn't beat the price--bluefly had them for $90 (I'm one who doesn't care that they're from two seasons ago). I can still work these with my summer outfits.

I don't think the gingham looks matronly. Besides they're the same platform yours is just a lil shorter. I think it's real cute even though I don't wear wedges.

SCNDLS said:

Whoo-HOO! I got an endorsement from SCNDLS!

And it's a Stuie shoe. How can you go wrong?

They are too cute and look super comfortable. What are you wearing them with? I'm thinking cute summer dresses.

SCNDLS said:

I've got some white Ralph Lauren capris and a few cute tops that I got from H&M that would be perfect with these. I now have an excuse to go buy a new dress!

I'm not sure how comfortable they are--the review on zappos said the fabric didn't seem too malleable. But I ordered them in an 8 (I usually wear 7.5), so hopefully that'll make a difference.

NuPwr319 said:

Oh yeah, they'll be too cute with some white "pedal pushers" as my mother would call 'em. If you went up a size you should be fine.

Oh BTW, last night I popped in to the SW boutique to holla at my favorite salesguy and dude actually told me I have a problem. Then said I could use his 50% discount whenever I want to. I'm like, fool, how you gon give a crackhead half priced rocks????
