Weather you do or you don't

As spring breaks across this great valley of ours the birds begin to sing the grass begins to get greener and most importantly your wardrobe changes.  From the backs of our closets dresses, skirts, and boy friend jeans start to reappear.  The hardest part about the weather change is the footwear.  Well we've got that covered because these sandals go with all of them and are way more comfortable than that cheap pair of flip flops you wore out last year.  Introducing our limited edition line of Minnetonka sandals.  All of them delicately adorned, leather and like all our Minnetonka shoes made to last. 

 

I am a child of the 90's I loved the music, the movies and especially the fashion.  I'm not talking about the grab your fathers flannel and a pair of docs.  I'm talking about the style pop art inspired 50's reminiscent.  The kind that would make Andy Warhol rise from the dead and ask you what your wearing.  In recent fashion related events that I have either watched or attended I've had the pleasure of what we will be seeing on the shelves well in advance.  So bust out your Easter egg decorating kits because pastels and polka dots are making a splash.  Lime greens and chunky heels are likely to grace the runways and couture clothing lines this spring.  In keeping up with the fashion of the times we are offering our Mad men inspired (Thanks Jovie) peep toe heel from Madden Girl at an affordable price and a with a subtle blush coloring and moderate button strap you can't go wrong.

The little black dress has met it's match

A perfect black pump can be worn with nearly everything.  It has a near magical quality to it.  It steady's you in confidence, it struts its stuff in an unassuming yet sure footed way.  It can ad swagger without adding a devilish sleep with me easy look.   We would love to put you in a pair of these but were afraid it's shear versatility will keep you from buying more shoes from us.

Short Story made even shorter

She sneaks quietly out the back door making sure that the subtle clicking of the latch is muffled.  Out to the car no time to let it warm up.  Steadily she drives through the neighborhood and down the side streets.  Her destination is key and her breath quickens with excitement when she thinks about.  She remembers the smell, the light and the object of her obsession.   Her pulse quickens further as she makes her way into the parking lot.  Confident now that she knows she will be satisfied when she leaves.  There is a shuffle of gravel underfoot and 7 concrete steps to the door.  Clean wood floors and white walls.  She knows the way by friends who had taken her there through happenstance. Inside she is greeted without the obligatory cheesiness that accompanies most ventures into the heart of retail.  They know what they sell, they know the have good prices and most of all they know what she wants.

Post apocalyptic footwear

There may come a day in our lives where we regrettably survive the apocalypse.  It might come from global warming, zombies or some other made up disaster but it will happen.  So while most people will be scampering around looking for food we will be more concerned with footwear.  I have a couple of obvious choices for what I want.  You might think that a good sturdy boot, built for durability and comfort would be a good option but your wrong.  I'm going with the Steve Madden Craizie's.    I can get big strong men and a few women to do anything I want while wearing these.  That beats a good pair of  boots any day.  Oh and they are all leather so they should last till the next inevitable Apocalypse.

Fall into fashion

We shortly leave behind the warm weather and trade our shorts for shawls.  Don't be worried though fall is one of the best times of year for shopping.  The trend this fall is simple Grey's are big, skinny jeans are fading and fading jeans are coming back big time.  Look for neon's as in "80's good god I can't believe there back" neon's.  Then come pick up some sexy boots by Steve Madden because they are the hottest thing going this fall. We have them in brown as well for 75.00 regularly 109.00 in bigger stores that we won't mention.  So get in here and get your fall fashion Here.

Origins of Labor Day

Contrary to popular belief the origins of Labor Day do not begin observance on September 5th 1882 after members of the New York Labor Unions were killed by Military  No Labor day goes much further back to the time of Pharohs and Sphinxes.  It all began according to ancient astronaut theorists during the construction of the sphinx. The sphinx was built over 10,000 years ago by the Steve Maddeions a race of sentient alien beings.  They had come to earth to locate patent leather which has been used in interrsteller travel for millions of years. While they were here they thought it would be funny to build a half lion half man statue to confuse people for thousands of years.  During the construction a few thousand Egyptians were borrowed from nearby city's to assist the Steve Maddeions with the more labor intensive portions of construction.  In exchange for their labor the aliens taught man about the importance of patent leather and the biochemical properties that would make it possible for man to one day use interstellar travel.  Well man not quite understanding what the hell they were talking about thought that the patent leather would make for some really nice shoes and they were right.  The first pair was given to the aliens who found them to be aesthetically pleasing so they gave everyone the day off.  The first Labor Day...  Flash forward 10,000 years in honor of these brave and well rested Egyptians we have a copy of that first aesthetically pleasing pair of black patent leather pumps named for the aliens that once graced our planet.  They are Steve Maddens and we sell them for a mere 49.00 regularly 89.00.  Come in today and own a piece of history folks.
