The Meoww Peep-Toe Ankle Boots by Nine West are a wonderful item to add to your shoe collection. The texture combo (black suede and black leather), set these kicks apart from your standard black shoe. I am particularly fond of the yellow gold hardware on the back zip closure. When I have a choice, I tend to choose yellow over white gold – makes for easy jewelry pairing.

Aside from their good looks, they are a 5 on the tolerable scale (1 being the least tolerable, 5 being the most tolerable – no high heels are actually comfortable!). The slightly padded insole helps support the balls of your feet and the 4.5″ sturdy heel makes for easy walking and all the height you’ll ever need.

I styled these shoes with a dress, but you could certainly wear them with a pair of black skinny jeans or even a darker wash boyfriend jean.

Did I mention they’re over 50% off, now?! Order them here before they sell out! They run true-to-size.

Happy Friday!

I styled this look with an elegant sheer blouse so that I could easily dress it down with a scarf, or dress it up with a statement necklace. I paired my day time look with a scarf and standout necklace, a pair of olive wedge booties and my go-to crossbody bag. I am hardly ever in flats but you could easily swap out the wedges for some flats if that is what you prefer.

For the evening, I simply removed the scarf and replaced my purse for a gold clutch (similar here), then completed the outfit with patent leather pumps. Easy as pie!

So the next time you’re invited to an after work shindig, don’t forget to wear your boyfriend jeans (as long as you’re allowed to wear jeans to work!) and pack a pair of heels and a lavish clutch purse!

When I set out to find the “perfect pump” I decided to go with patent leather for a couple of reasons. Patent leather is timeless, it is easier to care for than leather or suede, and you can easily dress it up or down.  After trying on almost every black pump in DSW, I finally found the right shoe for me. Meet the BCBG Paris Jaze Pump!

The BCBG Paris Jaze Pump.

After wearing these beauts for more than one occasion, here is my honest feedback. On a scale of 1-5 (1 being the least tolerable, 5 being the most tolerable – lets get real, no high heels are actually comfortable!), these are undoubtedly a 5. Fitting true-to-size with just enough padding built into the soles, the balls of my feet never became sore. Plus, the moderate heel height left my arches feeling a-ok. Finally, because the toes do not come to a complete point, there is some room for your toes to breathe.

Although shoe shopping should be nothing but fun, it can be rather frustrating when you have small, narrow feet! So, when the shoe fits, sometimes I buy more than one pair. This is exactly what I did when I found the BCBG Paris Jaze Pumps. Like I said above, a solid paid of black and neutral pumps is non-negotiable so why not pick up a nude pair as well?! And did I mention they are only $59.95? I was so excited that I did not have to break the bank for a pair of basics like these.

So what are you waiting for? Head over to your local DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse or shop online 24/7 here…and remember, if the shoe fits, buy two pairs!

These pumps are GG approved!
