Spooky and Sassy

Halloween is just around the corner, so if you haven't started thinking about what you're wearing to that party, it's time you do. And just because you only wear your costume once a year, doesn't mean you have to spend money on shoes and accessories you'll only wear once. Think smart and buy things you know will work great for many occasions. 

Take a look at some of Shi by Journeys Halloween costume ideas...

Happy Halloween!

Don't Forget to Point Your Toes!

Pointy-Toes are BACK!

This trend was popular about five years ago, and it's back with a vengeance! Popular celebs like Victoria Secret supermodel Miranda Kerr and Twilight actress Kristen Stewart are rocking the pointy-toe trend this fall in fabulous basic colors. This feminine and sexy shoe elongates the leg and looks amazing on all women. Shi by Journeys carries the Womens Zigi Elizabeth Heel in basic colors, but also a fabulous royal blue color as well!

Trend Alert: Studs & Spikes

If you're looking to spice up your girly-girl image, try incorporating this season's hottest trend...STUDS & SPIKES! It's important not to over-do it, but adding a studded flat to a simple outfit jazzes it up and makes it edgy, without having to try too hard. If you're not into studded/spiked shoes, try a studded clutch, bag or wallet–we love those too!

Shop all studded flats

Happy Shopping!

Down to Business.

I'm not sure about the rest of you girls, but I have quite the shoe collection. It doesn't help/hurt that I work for a shoe company, but still. I have...a lot. A good portion of my collection includes paisley prints, florals, satin bows & bright colors. Fortunately for me, our offices here are pretty open to many of our fashion experiments. Unfortunately for some of you out there, other offices are not. For those of you who are in this latter category (or just like the basics...I love a good, classic silhouette) check out some of the pieces above from our collection of business appropriate shoes coming out this fall. Ruffles, studs and stitches add some fun detail. What do you ladies think?

Boots!!!

I'm not sure if you girls are as excited as I am that boot season is fast approaching, but let me tell you, I. Am. Pumped. As summer winds down, we start getting deceptively cool morning and evenings that make us dream of late fall, when boots and jackets are finally appropriate to wear. Then, mid-day, comes the sweltering sun and we are reminded that it's not quite time to break out our wardrobe we carefully stored away last March.

Don't get me wrong. I LOVE summer. It's my favorite season by far. It's just that, when the weather begins to cool down, I remember all my sweaters, boots, scarves & jackets that I haven't been able to wear and am ready to trade in my sundresses and flip-flops for more sophistication.

In the spirit of pining away for fall, I wanted to show everyone some of the fabulous boots we have coming in this season. How about that sequin boot?! Love it! Hope everyone has a fun, safe & fashionable Labor Day weekend!

Fashion Friday at The Office

One of the things I love about working for a shoe company (aside from it feeding my unhealthy shoe obsession) is seeing all the fabulous outfits the girls around the office have put together. We have a pretty fashionable group of people around here (guys too!) and it's great for inspiration. There is such a wide variety of styles that you're never running out of ideas. For today, I was able to round up 4 super stylish ladies to have their photos taken for the blog-trust me it was difficult. NO ONE wants their picture taken! Thankfully, Emily, Dannie, Lauren and Michelle were kind enough to pose for the camera. After lighting adjustments, lip gloss applications, complaints and more, here are 4 of our office's loveliest!

Emily is our resident vintage girl. She loves pairing dresses with unique accessories and pops of color. Dannie is the newest addition to our team and I always catch her in these lovely, layered ensembles. Style shouldn't have to be hard and Lauren proves it in her easy, floral maxi dress topped off with a cardi and great accessories. Michelle is rocking a pair of skinny jeans and our exclusive Jeset wedges (love her glasses & super chic side ponytail! Makes me miss my long hair!).

So, now that you've seen some of our style, we want to see yours! Send photos of your style to iforfashion@genesco.com and you may be featured on the blog! Oh, and thanks to Emily, Dannie, Lauren & Michelle. To all the girls who denied me taking their photo...watch out! You'll be on here eventually!

Fall Fashion Alert

Menswear pieces have been on the radar for awhile now but this year they seem to be especially trending. Oxfords, camel-colored blazers, fedoras and tumbled leather briefcases & messenger bags are making their appearances everywhere. We love them too, especially paired with a sleek tweed pencil skirt and an understated vest.

Fall Must Haves

This weekend I did the much dreaded (and also very necessary) chore of cleaning out my closet. Do I really need that white tank that I have 5 more of, that may or may not have a fixable snag in it? I've had it for 100 years and it's way past it's prime, but still...I may need it one day. Needless to say, Goodwill got a hefty donation. If you're like me and have a hard time getting past those hard-to-give-up items, read this article. It's on de-cluttering your house (applies to closets too). If I denied that I answered yes to any (all) of these questions, it would be a lie. Read The Top 6 Excuses for Clutter

Fortunately, it cleared the way for some new fall pieces to work their way home with me from my shopping trip...ok trips. It was Tax-Free weekend here after all. I stocked up on pencil skirts, cardigans & blazers. Here are some of my favorite Shi pieces I can't wait to get. Some aren't coming in until September though...I suppose I can make it.
