Sam Edelman Zoe Boots Are Back!

Sam Edelman Zoe Boots, $345.00
The coveted Sam Edelman "Zoe" boots are being re-released! These boots were inspired (cough, knock off) from Balenciaga's fall 2006 collection and widely associated with Mary-Kate Olsen.

And since then the boots have popularized thanks for some all star bloggers like Rumi of Fashion Toast, Susie of Style Bubble and Jane of Sea of Shoes. Fall 2006, that's almost three years ago, but these boots are still a hot commodity, selling for $500+ on eBay.

While $345 is still pretty hefty, if you're been eyeing these boots for awhile, it just might be worth it. Nasty Gal, one of my favorite online shops, is currently accepting pre-orders, with a deposit of $10 taken immediately. You can also find them for the same price at Jildor.

First Look: J. Aldridge by Sea of Shoes

17 yr old Texan blogger, Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes and Urban Outfitters are collaborating on a capsule collection of 3 pairs of shoes named J. Aldridge by Sea of Shoes. It will be exclusive to Urban Outfitters and debut in July. Jane is best known for her love of shoes and she can be seen wearing YSL Cage shoes, Stella McCartney Mesh Heels and others on her blog. Congrats Jane!

Her designs take from elements of her fave shoes to create what the press release describes as:

Dramatic knee-high brown leather peep-toe boots feature top-stitched detailing and lacing at the front, black gladiator heels with studs and twin buckle straps, and lace-up, pointy skimmers.

"I'm really excited to bring my designs to Urban Outfitters," says Aldridge. "The inspiration for this collection is a mish-mash of some of the elements of my favorite pairs—sort of Victoriana meets gladiator warrior."
