Sketcher's Shape-Up's??? Z Coil??

Folks,
Can anyone tell me what the deal with these is?  Not that I'm in the market for some Shape-Ups or anything.... but, do they work? 
Here's a positive blog entry......  I'm still not sold.  I really hate ugly shoes...

These remind me of those Z-Coil shoes.  Which, I don't think I would recommend.  My mom was wearing these, fell and broke her shoulder.  Trust me, she blames the Z-Coil!  OMG - I'm looking at their site now, and they come in a hiking shoe?  Scary!!  Oh wait, a Teva Z-Coil?!  NO!!
Ok, at over $200, I would really rather have a Tory Burch signature flat - less chance of breaking an ankle. Word.

ML's Standby for another season - The Tory Burch Flip Flop

Another summer staple is back for a 2nd season, and I'm going to guess, another few seasons in the future.  The really cute Tory Burch flip flop!!  How can any resist this?  For $45, yes, it's a little spendy for a flip flop, but much less than a TB ballet flat or wedge, and oh-so-cute! 

Found at Nordstrom, online, at Nieman Marcus, or Tory Burch's site.

ML's Spring Pick - So far...

Well, Spring has been slow for ML and new shoes....  car repairs have taken over the shoe budget.  Sigh.  What's a girl to do?  Rely on DSWfor a quick fix!  I got this little number a few weeks back. Originally I had my eye on the Blue faux-croc, but got the goldish-faux croc instead.  hey, for $50, this is a nice wedge!

New for Sping....but I won't be buying these!! UGH!!

Thanks to my good friend Jen for providing this hot little number for spring!! 
When she sent me the link, I opened it, then starting laughing sooo hard and saying "OMG" over and over (keep in mind, I was alone in my condo) OUT LOUD!   What the F are these?  A wooden wedge/clog, with a nod to S&M (buckles), yet a spring floral print???  Nothing, let me repeat, nothing about spring/summer says "cover up all your feet and legs, but let just your toes peep out"...  Arrgghhh.... I hate these.....  
BUT, if you are that one person who thinks these are hot, CLICK HERE to order. Enjoy.

(P.S. I was laughing so hard and blogging, that I managed to overcook a filet of red snapper... yummy....)

Found these at DSW this past weekend.....am really thinking about getting them....

Here is a fun, cute, blue wedge.  (comes in other colors)  Good price!  Discuss....

I must have these!!

I think those who know me, know I loved wedges, especially an espradille wedge.  Found these in my new Nordstrom catalog that came in the mail today.  These are a must buy for me!!  YEAH!
They also come in black and turquoise - CLICK HERE to see.... 

Spring Shoes!!

Now that Seattle is experiencing an early spring the past 3 days (and 2 more to come), I am thinking about spring clothes and of course spring shoes.

Does that include a Gladiator sandal this year - NO!!  But of course I love my wedges, so am excited to get some new ones in the months to come.  Here are a couple strong contenders, and one strappy sandal I'm on the fence about.  Thoughts on this orange strappy heel?? (all from Nordstrom)
