Cat in Heels

Sometimes I get requests to find the perfect shoe, and I love searching until the ultimate heel is found. After posting my chartreuse peep toe heels today I got a question on where to find some good yellow heels. Shades and styles were discussed and it was eventually narrowed down to "neon." Truth or Dare Not exactly the most difficult challenge, but wow can this be fun. So here's some options in a variety of price ranges, and if you have additional suggestions, feel free to post them. You can also post photos of your own favorite shoe finds, because we all love shoes here. Nasty Gal Madonna offers up a great pair of neon yellow peep toes in her Truth or Dare line. Unembellished and classic these can add a pop of color to any outfit. If you're looking for something totally different in your neon, a pair of Nasty Gal  heel-less wedges with matching neon spikes can fill that void. Tying multiple trends into one shoe is also possible with the Qupid Pot...

They come in multiple colors The other side of me wants to embrace it and add the neon pieces to my wardrobe, and live out some kind of Barbie and the Rockers fantasy where I look great in everything no matter how asinine it may be, all my friends are equal...

A few days ago I got a Facebook message from a horrified friend. "The people on the radio said fanny packs are back. You really need to address this in your blog." But I write about shoes... So today we take a break from shoes, and go into the world of accessories. Bags really aren't that far from shoes anyway, and some people insist that their bags and shoes should always match, but I always figured those people only have like three pair of shoes, because really, who has that much room?  I digress. I'm not much of a TV or radio person, so I Googled it, and judging by dates, fanny packs (or belt bags as one site called them) are always on the verge of coming back. 2007, 2008, 2009, and yes, 2010 were all the year that the fanny pack was going to make a comeback. Really, who decides this? And who thought that this was a good idea in the first place? If you really have that much stuff to carry, buy a purse, or a man bag, a messenger bag, a murse (man purse...
