Cap It Off

I know you have seen them all over the place.  They are one of THE shoes for spring.  Most of them are flat but the trend takes all shapes and sizes. I'm talking about the cap toe. 

Sometimes they are metal, sometimes they are sequin and other times they are patent.  There are endless many ways to rock the cap.  One popular option are natural tones.  They are versatile but still showcase the pop of the cap toe.  

Having a hard time finding one in your size? The search is ova! Pick and click below.

Wu Wear

I don't know about you but lately I have needed a little wu saw in my life.  A little yoga, a little neo soul, a little hot bath (actually a LONG hot bath), A LOT of prayer...basically anything to take the stress out of my life.

One color that is usually associated with CALM is white so I thought I would put together some tall fashions that I like to call Wu Wear.

13 Wishes

This is the worst! You go on a shoe site and see some killer shoes. You click your shoe size to narrow down the results and BAM nothing but fugly shoes. So disheartening! For example, I went to a site put in size 13 and an entire page of these in different colors popped up:

NOT OK!

This prompted me to search high and low for pretty sandals up to size 13 because NOBODY should subject their feet to this hot mess.  Enjoy (big smile:)!

Cut It Out

There is nothing more I hate then foot sweat (well maybe a couple of things but you get my point). GROSS.  We have all been there.  You have a cute pair of pumps on with no ventilation and before you know it you are sliding around like a baseball player into home base. Again, GROSS. 

BUT this season's trends bring a solution to the problem...dun dun na na...CUTOUTS! Cutouts are hot right now and come with built in air conditioning (perfect for spring and summer heat).  Designers can't keep the trend on the shelves! 

Now, it's not something I would go crazy about.  You don't want your entire shoe collection 'cut out' however a couple of statement pairs are a must.

Cut it out now!  Check out these options or visit the TallSWAG shoe page to select your own.
