			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Can you believe the longest day of the year has already come and gone? Nevertheless, there&#8217;s still plenty of summer to enjoy, so we thought that as the days grow shorter, we&#8217;d shorten our prices! That way Ped fans can look like sensational in new shoes while reveling in the sand and sunsets, and still have a few dollars to spare for a summertime cocktail or two!</p>
<p>Here are just a few of the lovelies with even lovelier, lower prices!</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s start tall for those who love heels and gradually bring it down to earth for gals who are fond of flats. One designer who knows how to do heels is Chie Mihara, as evidenced by the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/chie_mihara/chie_mihara.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=2&amp;productID=549&amp;colorID=1014">Bankok</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/chie_mihara/chie_mihara.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=2&amp;productID=549&amp;colorID=1014"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/1014/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Oo-la-la, such a sexy dominatrix of a buckle-licious sandal! Utterly rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll at <span style="color: #993300;"><span style="color: #008080;"><span style="color: #808000;"><span style="color: #993366;"><del datetime="2011-06-24T05:16:29+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$428</span></del></span></span></span></span>, it burns down the house at <span style="color: #339966;">$342</span><span style="color: #000000;">!</span></p>
<p>Another high-heeled hottie is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243">Coclico&#8217;s Lucifer</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2243/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The design of the straps is so ingenious, and the sculpted wooden sole wows with its artistic lines! A looker at <span style="color: #993366;"><del datetime="2011-06-24T05:18:07+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$364</span></del></span>, it&#8217;s a knockout at <span style="color: #339966;">$289</span>!</p>
<p>Bringing the heel height down, Vialis amps up the sex appeal with the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1225&amp;colorID=2259">Belladonna</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1225&amp;colorID=2259"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2259/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Smoking hot, this sandal offers tough-girl beauty with buckle straps that dip down behind the heel and a zipper that rises up the back! Sassy at <span style="color: #800080;"><del datetime="2011-06-24T05:18:07+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$37</span><span style="color: #800080;">8</span></del></span>, it sizzles at <span style="color: #339966;">$299</span>!</p>
<p>Another beautiful heel that calls attention to your well-turned ankle is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1230&amp;colorID=2262">Fiorentini + Baker&#8217;s Tally</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1230&amp;colorID=2262"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2262/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Pretty as a picture at <span style="color: #800080;"><del datetime="2011-06-24T05:18:07+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$378</span></del></span>, the Tally is utterly gorgeous at <span style="color: #339966;">$299</span><span style="color: #000000;">!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Lower still in terms of heel height, Vialis offers the clean-lined <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1257&amp;colorID=2291">Maribel</a> that is as versatile as it is chic:</span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1257&amp;colorID=2291"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2291/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Simple yet packing a lot of punch, the Maribel stands on a heel that&#8217;s an ultra-wearable 2&#8243;. Great bang for your buck at <del datetime="2011-06-24T05:18:07+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$238</span></del>, it&#8217;s even more of a stylish steal at <span style="color: #339966;">$190</span>!</p>
<p>But we know some of you like to keep your feet firmly planted on the ground, in which case Couple Of offers the fresh <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1218&amp;colorID=2249">Lily</a> ballet flat to help you pirouette through summer:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1218&amp;colorID=2249"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2249/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Isn&#8217;t the color of the suede delicious? A tasty treat at <del datetime="2011-06-24T05:18:07+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$238</span></del>, the Lily is even sweeter at <span style="color: #339966;">$149</span>!</p>
<p>Another fantastic flat that let&#8217;s you walk the cutting edge is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1224&amp;colorID=2258">Vic Matie&#8217;s Elda</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1224&amp;colorID=2258"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2258/1.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Tough, sexy, and artistic in equal measure, the Elda wowed at <del datetime="2011-06-24T05:18:07+00:00"><span style="color: #800080;">$438</span></del>, but it&#8217;s an even bigger rave at <span style="color: #339966;">$349</span>!</p>
<p>And those are only the beginning of the fantastic prices waiting for you at Ped&#8217;s main site. So, cool your heels in some cool-priced shoes from Ped!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We love shoes at Ped—no surprise there!—but we&#8217;re also crazy about accessorizing them with socks! Sure, Ped&#8217;s shoes are comfortable barefoot, but pairing them with the fun funkiness of a pair of <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15">Antipast</a> or <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/mia_zia/mia_zia.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=10">Mia Zia</a> socks gives a whole new twist to their personalities! And socks aren&#8217;t just for chilly days anymore—wearing a cute pair with sandals is all the rage on the runways this year!</p>
<p>Think how sassy any of the following would look with, say, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1033&amp;colorID=1980">Fiorentini + Baker&#8217;s Eliza Oxford</a>, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1256&amp;colorID=2290">Vialis&#8217;s Eloisa</a>, or even  <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/chie_mihara/chie_mihara.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=&amp;productID=1195&amp;colorID=2219">Chie Mihara&#8217;s Yoisho</a> (for those of you who like to go bold with your style)!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s always a party at Ped HQ when we get a shipment from <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15">Antipast</a>! Mother-daughter team, Emiko and Junko take such a playful approach to design. One of our Antipast favorites this season is the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1265&amp;colorID=2322">La Vie en Rose ankle sock</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1265&amp;colorID=2322"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2322/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>A garden of flowers bloom across this sweet number, but what makes it really special is the sheer area just below elastic ruching at the top! Innovative and eye-catching!</p>
<p>Another dazzler, which looks particularly great with a knee-length or shorter skirt, is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1266&amp;colorID=2327">Antipast&#8217;s Spangle Knee High</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1266&amp;colorID=2327"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2327/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Fun and bubbly! We smile every time we look at the way the looping part of the pattern combines with the ruffly top! (We also have <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1267&amp;colorID=2331">Antipast&#8217;s Spangle goodness in a trouser-length sock</a>.)</p>
<p>An even more colorful, bubbly style is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1262&amp;colorID=2309">Antipast&#8217;s Puzzle Dots Sock</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1262&amp;colorID=2309"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2309/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>There&#8217;s an ongoing debate in the warehouse about whether this trouser-length sock looks more like lollipops or a colorful honeycomb. One thing we all agree on, though, is how fab it is! (Ped also has the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1261&amp;colorID=2304">Puzzle Dots pattern in a knee-high</a>.)</p>
<p>Everyone knows how much we go gaga for stripes. Happily, both Antipast and Mia Zia have satisfied our stripe craving this spring! First, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1258&amp;colorID=2292">Antipast&#8217;s Beach Chair Knee High</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1258&amp;colorID=2292"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2292/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>This zesty knee high is perfectly named because its stripes recall those great canvas chairs we love to lounge in by the sea! If you like your socks on the shorter side, though, the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1259&amp;colorID=2296">Beach Chair stripes are also available in trouser-length</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/mia_zia/mia_zia.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=10">Mia Zia</a> also has stripes galore for adding zing to your spring and summer:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/mia_zia/mia_zia.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=10&amp;productID=1146&amp;colorID=2120"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2120/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>For stripe lovers, it doesn&#8217;t get any better than Mia Zia&#8217;s cottony-wonderful <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/mia_zia/mia_zia.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=10&amp;productID=1146&amp;colorID=2120">Mini Stripe socks</a>! (They also come in <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/mia_zia/mia_zia.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=10&amp;productID=1167&amp;colorID=2164">a knee-high version</a>.) Here&#8217;s an idea for a modern look:</p>
<p><a href="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/antivialis.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3198" title="antivialis" src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/antivialis.jpg" alt="" width="466" height="263" /></a></p>
<p>That&#8217;s <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/mia_zia/mia_zia.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=10&amp;productID=1146&amp;colorID=2120">Mia Zia&#8217;s Mini-Stripe sock</a> in Olive paired with the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1256&amp;colorID=2290">Vialis Eloisa</a>.</p>
<p>For sheer, unabashed fun, though, the hands-down (feet-down?) sock winner is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1264&amp;colorID=2318">Antipast&#8217;s Jungle Check Sock</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1264&amp;colorID=2318"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2318/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Only Antipast would think to mix a cheetah print with a gingham pattern in summer colors! We are smitten! (Want even more? There&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1263&amp;colorID=2314">Jungle Check Knee High</a>!)  If you feel like pulling the stops out on your style, then how about this combo:</p>
<p><a href="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/AntiChie.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3199" title="AntiChie" src="/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/AntiChie.jpg" alt="" width="513" height="231" /></a></p>
<p>That&#8217;s <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/antipast/antipast.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=15&amp;productID=1264&amp;colorID=2318#">Antipast&#8217;s Jungle Check</a> in purple paired with <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/chie_mihara/chie_mihara.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=&amp;productID=1195&amp;colorID=2219">Chie Mihara&#8217;s Yoisho</a>! We admit it&#8217;s a &#8220;lot of look,&#8221; as Tim Gunn would say, but it&#8217;s also crazy, flirty fun!</p>
<p>Whenever an outfit needs a colorful pick-me-up, our best advice is to rock the socks!</p>
<p>(By the way, this week&#8217;s Sweet Treat is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243">Coclico&#8217;s sizzling Lucifer</a> heeled sandal! Just click &#8220;be sweet to your feet&#8221; in the upper right corner of any Ped page and be transported to the Lucifer with the magic check-out code that will let you set the world on fire for 20% off!)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here at Ped, we love organic materials—leather, wool, cotton, wood! Plus we we have a sentimental soft spot for clogs. But old-school clogs with wooden soles, are often, um, how shall we say, frumpy? And, as Ped fans know, &#8220;frumpy&#8221; and Ped simply do not mix!</p>
<p>Fortunately, some of our favorite designers have taken a new turn with wood, creating shoes, clogs, and sandals, where the only adjectives beginning with &#8220;f&#8221; that spring to mind are fantastic, fabulous, and FUN! Of course, each sole is meticulously cut, sculpted and sanded by hand for maximum comfort and pizazz! Behold a few of our woody favorites:</p>
<p>Proving a wood sole can be unbelievably chic, Ellen Verbeek&#8217;s <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/ellen_verbeek/ellen_verbeek.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=58&amp;productID=1222&amp;colorID=2255">Caressa</a> is a total knockout!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/ellen_verbeek/ellen_verbeek.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=58&amp;productID=1222&amp;colorID=2255"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2255/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Ellen Verbeek perfectly balances the elements—the mix of colors, the lacing in the back, and the cutout wooden wedge—for maximum impact! We especially love how the black strap circles through the cutout under the instep. So cool!</p>
<p>Another sexy heeled sandal with an ingenious design is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243">Coclico&#8217;s Lucifer</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2243/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Notice how the bottom strap is actually a t-strap that ducks under the others to meet up with cutout straps at the ankle! For you gals who love adding a few inches to your height, the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243">Lucifer</a>&#8217;s 4.25&#8243; wooden heel lets you rise above the crowd, while the 1&#8243; wooden platform up front keeps the pitch comfortable at 3.25&#8243;.</p>
<p>Ped&#8217;s newest line, Vic Matie, takes things in a slightly different direction by combining wooden soles with leather-wrapped heels. A beautiful example is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1227&amp;colorID=2261">the Allegra</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1227&amp;colorID=2261"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2261/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>So sophisticated but also versatile, thanks to <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1227&amp;colorID=2261#">the Allegra</a>&#8217;s slate grey color—an ideal summer neutral. The hand-sculpted and sanded wooden sole feels wonderful against your bare skin!</p>
<p>Experimenting with more traditional clog construction while creating fun, kick-around-town styles, Vialis has the hippest wood in the house this season. Check out <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1255&amp;colorID=2289">the Gabriela</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1255&amp;colorID=2289"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2289/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The way this sandal clog&#8217;s straps weave in and out over the toe calls to mind a fisherman&#8217;s sandal—if a fisherman&#8217;s sandal were super-stylish and sassy! Another thing we love is the meticulous way the leather is stapled to the sole. Craftsmanship!</p>
<p>If you prefer nails to staples, then take a look at Vialis&#8217;s cute-as-can-be <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1254&amp;colorID=2288">Delfina</a> slingback:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vialis/vialis.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=59&amp;productID=1254&amp;colorID=2288"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2288/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>So much to love from the sweet lacing to the &#8220;asphalto&#8221; suede (a stellar greyish brown with just a smidgeon of green) to the padded insole! The Delfina is ideal for wearing with summer skirts and walking shorts!</p>
<p>Of course, if you&#8217;re looking for the ultimate clog, one that pays homage to the classic style while taking it to a new level, then look no further than <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1212&amp;colorID=2241">Fiorentini + Baker&#8217;s Zilla Clog</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1212&amp;colorID=2241"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2241/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Wow. Just wow. Ever fabulous, Fiorentini + Baker has taken the basic architecture of an old-school clog and made it irresistibly sexy and sophisticated! The <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1212&amp;colorID=2241">Zilla</a>&#8217;s brass studding is simply to die for! Wow.</p>
<p>As always, there are plenty more wood-soled beauties to admire at Ped&#8217;s main site! So, wouldn&#8217;t you like a wooden shoe?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let&#8217;s face it, Ped fans, wearing heels can give you a boost beyond just a few inches in height. Heels are authoritative and at the same time feminine and glamorous. Plus, they make a gal&#8217;s gams look fantastic! &#8220;Sure,&#8221; you say, &#8220;but who wants to teeter with every step when our lives demand we go, go, go?&#8221;</p>
<p>Enter the wedge! Solving the problem of comfort and balance, while still maintaining the advantage of wearing a heel, the wedge is the answer when you want your style to stand out <em>and</em> stand up. And do we ever have wedges that wow this season! Take a gander:</p>
<p>We all agree the French know a thing or two about looking chic, so, of course, Accessoire&#8217;s wedges are <em>magnifique</em>!, like this <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1270&amp;colorID=2341">Papaye</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1270&amp;colorID=2341"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2341/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>How stunning is this sexy peep-toe? How luscious is that tulip pink? Every time we look at <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1270&amp;colorID=2341">the Papaye</a>, we fall in love all over again! (And for those of you who insist on black, Ped also has <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1270&amp;colorID=2340">the Papaye in your favorite color.</a>)</p>
<p>Another winning wedge from Accessoire, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1272&amp;colorID=2347">the Nairobi</a>, has a lower profile, but is no less beautiful:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1272&amp;colorID=2347"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2347/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for one sandal to do it all— walk the dog, attend a meeting, go out to dinner, and jet off for a weekend in Madrid— <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/accessoire/accessoire.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=54&amp;productID=1272&amp;colorID=2347">the Nairobi</a> is up to the challenge! And your feet will thank you because they&#8217;ll be sooooo comfortable!</p>
<p>Speaking of Spain, both Argila and Chie Mihara, our favorite Spanish designers, have lovely wedges in Ped&#8217;s lineup. First up, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/argila/argila.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=46&amp;productID=960&amp;colorID=2221">Argila&#8217;s Eliana</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/argila/argila.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=46&amp;productID=960&amp;colorID=2221"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2221/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>This go-with-everything wedge is back by popular demand, and it&#8217;s just as fresh and sexy as ever! We love the buckled wrap at the ankle, which is so of the moment!</p>
<p>As only she can, Chie Mihara brings rich color and femininity together in one glorious wedge she calls <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/chie_mihara/chie_mihara.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=&amp;productID=1192&amp;colorID=2216">the Ruala</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/chie_mihara/chie_mihara.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=&amp;productID=1192&amp;colorID=2216"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2216/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Illustrating how less is more, this sandal&#8217;s minimal design is dazzling! Plus, the marine blue hue is so deep and delicious you&#8217;ll practically want to dive into it!</p>
<p>You say you want a funkier edge to your wedge? Then <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/ellen_verbeek/ellen_verbeek.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=58&amp;productID=1223&amp;colorID=2257">Ellen Verbeek&#8217;s Elka</a> is right up your alley!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/ellen_verbeek/ellen_verbeek.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=58&amp;productID=1223&amp;colorID=2257"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2257/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We are down for the count when it comes to this beautifully made shoe!!! Inspired by a bowling shoe, this lace-up peep-toe is striking! (Okay, yes, that was a bad pun—but a bad pun about a gorgeous sandal!) And Elka&#8217;s edgy wedge is wooden!</p>
<p>Of course, if it&#8217;s urban artiness you&#8217;re after, Trippen has just the ticket in <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1199&amp;colorID=2225">the Airy</a>!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1199&amp;colorID=2225"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2225/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The design is deceptively simple, but the bold cut of the straps and studding over the ankle make this sandal super hip and modern! Trippen&#8217;s t-shaped wedge sole, however, is what will win your comfort-loving devotion.</p>
<p>And there are lots more wedges to help you step up your style over at Ped&#8217;s main site! Slip one on and find out what it means to be well-heeled!</p>
<p>(By the way, this week&#8217;s Sweet Treat is also funk-a-licious: <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1215&amp;colorID=2244">Couple Of&#8217;s cutting-edge Zebra sandal</a>! Click &#8220;be sweet to your feet&#8221; in the upper right corner of any Ped page to land at the Zebra, with the discount code that will bring 20% off at checkout. You&#8217;re guaranteed to be all the buzz!)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As much as we enjoy our winter woolens, we also enjoy putting them away when spring sails in with warmer weather! Nevertheless, we still need a little coziness in the early morning and after the sun goes down. Plus, it&#8217;s nice to to spice up a summer outfit with an extra dash of color and pattern. Just in time to fulfill both needs are the latest scarves from <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55">Epice</a> and <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26">Sophie Digard</a>!</p>
<p>Designed in Denmark and handcrafted by master weavers in India, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55">Epice</a>&#8217;s gorgeous scarves are meticulously loomed from fine cotton and linen. Each is also wide enough to wear as a shawl when your shoulders get chilly. Meanwhile, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26">Sophie Digard</a>, the inimitable Parisian queen of crochet, always wows us with her linen creations that are light and soft wearable works of art!</p>
<p>Below is a sampling of our warm-weather favorites from <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55">Epice</a> and <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26">Sophie</a>!</p>
<p>Epice is famous for their imaginative use of color, exemplified by the bold, tropical palette of this new <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55&amp;productID=1237&amp;colorID=2270">Casablanca Scarf</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55&amp;productID=1237&amp;colorID=2270"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2270/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Carmine, turquoise, yellow and khaki look so lively—it&#8217;s impossible to be in a bad mood when you have this fun linen and cotton scarf wound around your neck!</p>
<p>But if you prefer to make a quieter style statement, see what you think of Epice&#8217;s 100% linen <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55&amp;productID=1234&amp;colorID=2267">Parisian Spring Scarf</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55&amp;productID=1234&amp;colorID=2267"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2267/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Graceful arabesques in cream dance across a warm gray background, perfectly accented with a patterned aqua border. So pretty!</p>
<p>Another Epice style that makes us sigh with delight is the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55&amp;productID=1236&amp;colorID=2269">Indian Summer Scarf</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/epice/epice.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=55&amp;productID=1236&amp;colorID=2269"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2269/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>A stylized floral pattern is interpreted in three different color combinations: cream and blue, grey and citron, and brown and turquoise. The ultralight fabric is 70% linen and 30% cotton, yielding a drop-dead gorgeous scarf that&#8217;s an ideal summer weight!</p>
<p>Of course, Sophie Digard knows to how thrill with flowers, too! Check out the sweetness of her new <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1246&amp;colorID=2279">Love &amp; Chance Scarf</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1246&amp;colorID=2279"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2279/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Handmade velvet posies scatter across this grass green linen scarf—the very essence of summer!!! As you know, I have a weakness for anything green, but Ped also offers the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1247&amp;colorID=2280">Love &amp; Chance scarf in ecru</a> for those of you who love all things cream.</p>
<p>Needless to say, Sophie  has created a slue of new crocheted designs in lovely linen. One of the loveliest is the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1242&amp;colorID=2275">Confetti Scarf</a>!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1242&amp;colorID=2275"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2275/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We keep picking up this scarf because its pattern of small diamonds interspersed among larger concentric circles—each with a tufted velvet center—is so mesmerizing. The variation in colors is delicious against a background of pale blue. (Use the &#8220;zoom&#8221; tool to fully appreciate this beauty!)</p>
<p>But perhaps our favorite of all the wonderful scarves this season is Sophie Digard&#8217;s super-super-super-cool <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1240&amp;colorID=2273">Ecouter Summer Scarf</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1240&amp;colorID=2273"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2273/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The design of this scarf is <em>so</em> innovative!!! Sophie crochets an open honeycomb in a juicy summer palette of pink, turquoise, red, mustard, blue, and more on one half of the Ecouter&#8217;s length; on the other half, she uses the same palette to create tiny parallel stripes that separate and twist into fantastic fringe at the end! Did I mention the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/sophie_digard/sophie_digard.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=26&amp;productID=1240&amp;colorID=2273">Ecouter</a> is super cool? It&#8217;s SUPER COOL!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ped fans, you may remember last fall I returned from the European shoe shows all <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/blog/index.php/chie-mihara/ped-setting-across-the-pond/2509/">excited about a new line I&#8217;d found for Ped: Vic Matié from Italy</a>. I was impressed that Vic Matié&#8217;s shoes are created start to finish in a small-town factory by a dedicated group of designers and craftsmen who work collaboratively to produce beautiful shoes of first-rate quality and first-rate comfort.</p>
<p>Well, good news, they&#8217;re finally here!!! And were they ever worth the wait! Behold the fabulousness of Vic Matié!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1225&amp;colorID=2259"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2259/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We immediately fell for the charms of the sexy <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1225&amp;colorID=2259">Belladonna</a> sandal! This season it&#8217;s all about the ankle, and this strap-and-buckle sandal will make the most of yours! Add in the 3.5&#8243; heel and the seductive zipper up the back, and you&#8217;ve got deadly style!</p>
<p>Sandal boots are another look we love—so modern and chic! <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1226&amp;colorID=2260">Vic Matié&#8217;s Luisa</a> is one of our favorites:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1226&amp;colorID=2260"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2260/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The contrast of the soft suede shaft (which feels wonderful against your skin) with the matte leather straps is so delicious! Pair the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1226&amp;colorID=2260">Luisa</a> with a floaty feminine dress, and you&#8217;ll look like you just stepped off a European runway.</p>
<p>Another ultra-edgy flat sandal that will inspire shoe envy in everyone who sees you is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1224&amp;colorID=2258">Vic Matie&#8217;s Elda</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1224&amp;colorID=2258"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2258/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Composed of countless rolled-leather straps, all meticulously made, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1224&amp;colorID=2258">the Elda</a> is unlike any other sandal you&#8217;ll see! So stunning and so comfortable—this zipped-back sandal&#8217;s leather sole molds to your individual foot with wear.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for something a little girlier, perhaps with a wooden sole (another current trend we love), then feast your eyes on <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1227&amp;colorID=2261">the Allegra</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1227&amp;colorID=2261"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2261/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We think it&#8217;s so cool how Vic Matié has combined a wooden sole with a beautifully contoured wrapped-leather heel! Every aspect of this sandal is gorgeous, from the silver rivets that attach the upper to the sole, to the thong that artfully laces the front section to the back, to the go-with everything slate-grey leather!</p>
<p>But if you&#8217;re in the mood to stop traffic—and we mean bring it to a screeching halt while drivers and pedestrians all rubberneck to get a better look at your cool shoes—then <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1233&amp;colorID=2266">Vic Matié&#8217;s Sienna</a> is the ticket!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61&amp;productID=1233&amp;colorID=2266"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2266/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>This sandal is so devastatingly sexy that perhaps it should come with a warning label: &#8220;May cause cardiac arrest in those who see the wearer.&#8221; The wooden sole, the zipper up the back, the cage-like leather straps, and leather-wrapped heel—what a knockout combo!</p>
<p>Now you understand why I was so thrilled to add <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61">Vic Matié</a> to the Ped family—even if the inherent hotness of the styles raise the temperature in the warehouse by a few degrees! Summertime is going to be that much sweeter when you sashay through it in a pair of <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/vic_matie/vic_matie.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=61">Vic Matié </a>sandals!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;re hearing from many Ped fans that spring is teasing them this year! Just when they think it&#8217;s all green grass and tulips, along comes another snowstorm to bury the tender buds in the garden (and their sunny moods).</p>
<p>Ped understands, which is why we&#8217;ve put all our Karin Wagner jewelry on sale—so you can have flowers in your life that will never wilt! Hand felted in Switzerland, Karin&#8217;s wool pins, rings, and vines bloom with unique style that is always fresh.</p>
<p>Even if your jonquils are suffering from frostbite, you can still get a dose of yellow-flower joy with <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1020&amp;colorID=1866">Karin Wagner&#8217;s Daffodil Ring</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1020&amp;colorID=1866"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/1866/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Like a sunny day for your hand, this ring was pretty at <span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #888888;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$98</del></span></span>, but it&#8217;s even lovelier at <span style="color: #008000;">$79.</span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1021&amp;colorID=1867">Karin&#8217;s Lilia Ring</a> also sings, &#8220;Spring!&#8221; in a big, beautiful way!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1021&amp;colorID=1867"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/1867/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We love the sheer drama of it! Plus, the diamond cutouts on the petals are so unusual (not to mention a true handmade labor of love). Terrific at <span style="color: #666699;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$178</del></span>, it&#8217;s an even bigger wow at <span style="color: #008000;">$139</span>!</p>
<p>If you like rings but prefer to make a quieter statement, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=347&amp;colorID=594">Karin&#8217;s Anemone Ring</a> talks a little more softly.<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=347&amp;colorID=594"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/594/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Tempting at <span style="color: #666699;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$48</del></span>, it&#8217;s even more inviting at <span style="color: #339966;">$38</span>.</p>
<p>Perhaps you prefer the versatility of pins—after all, the placement is up to you! We love <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1023&amp;colorID=1870">Karin Wagner&#8217;s Rose Brooch</a> for just that reason!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1023&amp;colorID=1870"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/1870/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Pin it anywhere and instantly become a femme fatale! Stunning at <span style="color: #666699;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$124</del></span>, it&#8217;s truly stellar at <span style="color: #008000;">$98</span>.</p>
<p>The ways to wear Karin Wagner&#8217;s works of art are endless. Why not use a pin as a barrette, as we&#8217;ve done with the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1025&amp;colorID=1872#">Clochette Brooch</a>?<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1025&amp;colorID=1872#"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/1872/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We guarantee you&#8217;ll have the prettiest hair wherever you go! Wonderful at <span style="color: #666699;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$104</del></span>, this little bouquet is even better at <span style="color: #339966;">$79</span>.</p>
<p>Speaking of versatile, Karin Wagner&#8217;s vine necklaces offer lots of options—drape one around your neck, entwine it in your tresses, or perhaps wind it around the strap of your handbag!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=611&amp;colorID=1093"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/1093/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>What could be fresher any day of the year than this <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=611&amp;colorID=1093">Daisy Necklace</a>? Worth smiling over at <span style="color: #666699;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$164</del></span>, it&#8217;s even more cheerful at <span style="color: #339966;">$129</span>.</p>
<p>One of our all-time favorite pieces here at Ped HQ is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=376&amp;colorID=633">Karin Wagner&#8217;s Magnolia Vine</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=376&amp;colorID=633"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/633/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>What a show stopper! This necklace is so pretty you&#8217;ll want to keep it out as art even when you&#8217;re not wearing it. Smashing at <span style="color: #666699;"><del datetime="2011-03-31T00:09:39+00:00">$182</del></span>, it&#8217;s irresistible at <span style="color: #008000;">$139</span>!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Crocuses are poking up, and daffodils are finally showing their sunny faces. Ah, spring! Welcome back!</p>
<p>Here at Ped, we love watching the steady rise of the mercury day after day. And nothing feels better than unsheathing our sock-bound feet and letting them take in the air! Needless to say, we&#8217;ve got all kinds of stylish ways to do just that—sandals and shoes that will carry you from the early days of spring right on through the sultry days of summer.</p>
<p>Here are just a few breezy ideas to get you started.</p>
<p>We realize  some of you may not be quite ready to bust out the sandals, and we know many Ped fans are loathe to leave behind your edgy oxfords. Happily, Argila has just the in-between thing:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/argila/argila.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=46&amp;productID=1197&amp;colorID=2222"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2222/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Meet <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/argila/argila.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=46&amp;productID=1197&amp;colorID=2222">the Sophia</a>! What a yummy treat: an oxford made from wonderfully soft leather that features air-conditioning right where it counts! As always, Argila adds exactly the right accents, like the fold-down lip at the back and the hand-cut wooden heel. Delicious!</p>
<p>Another laced lovely from Argila is the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/argila/argila.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=46&amp;productID=1198&amp;colorID=2223">Riley</a>, which lets your toes wiggle in the sun in the most stylish way!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/argila/argila.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=46&amp;productID=1198&amp;colorID=2223"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2223/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>In addition to the more obvious design notes that make this wooden-heeled sandal sing, the subtle rust topstitching on the toe straps is stellar against the cement-gray leather!</p>
<p>Coclico also has a winning wooden-heeled sandal that&#8217;s so sinfully hot they&#8217;ve called it <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243">the Lucifer</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1214&amp;colorID=2243"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2243/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Whoa! Don&#8217;t be surprised when people in your immediate vicinity start mopping their brows because this statuesque sandal is <em>sizzling</em>! Take a second to admire the ingenuity of the design. The t-strap ducks under three narrow straps arcing over the toe, before joining with several more parallel straps at the ankle. Now you&#8217;re cooking with gas!</p>
<p>Coclico has all kinds of ways of giving you a lift! One of our personal favorites at Ped is the new <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1213&amp;colorID=2242">Whoo</a>!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/coclico/coclico.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=39&amp;productID=1213&amp;colorID=2242"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2242/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Standing on a lightweight cork platform, this easy suede slide is just the thing for kicking up your heels on a spring day! We are crazy about the airy cutouts and the to-die-for red brick color!</p>
<p>Did you perk up when we mentioned color? If so, then you are going to love what Couple Of is bringing to the table this season!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1218&amp;colorID=2249"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2249/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Does this sweet slip-on look familiar? It&#8217;s because it&#8217;s the heel-less version of Couple Of&#8217;s popular <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1063&amp;colorID=2247">Lily</a>, and, in fact, is called the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1218&amp;colorID=2249">Lily Flat</a>! What could be fresher than skipping around town in a grass-green ballet flat?</p>
<p>But if your toes are begging for full exposure to the fresh air, then bask in the beauty of the sunniest sandal in the Ped warehouse, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1216&amp;colorID=2246">Couple Of&#8217;s Paspas</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1216&amp;colorID=2246"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2246/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>What an instant pick-me-up! The design is ingeniously edgy, with the straps coming together into an architectural ridge that moves sinuously down the front of this comfortable flat. By the way, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1216&amp;colorID=2245">the Paspas also comes in </a><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1216&amp;colorID=2245">black</a>!</p>
<p>And if it&#8217;s edge you&#8217;re after, then look no further than <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1215&amp;colorID=2244">Couple Of&#8217;s Zebra</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1215&amp;colorID=2244"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2244/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s a gladiator sandal gone wild in the best possible way! Zebra-like cut-outs and slits accent the supple black leather exterior of this knockout, which is lined in cream-colored leather. When you step out in the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/couple_of/couple_of.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=56&amp;productID=1215&amp;colorID=2244">Zebra</a>, you&#8217;ll be the envy of shoe-lovers everywhere you walk.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ped fans, I&#8217;m in Milan, Italy, this week, finding all kinds of wonders to warm up next fall and winter. In the meantime, fresh Italian delights for spring and summer are the latest things to arrive in the Ped warehouse. And when we say &#8220;Italian,&#8221; we mean the line you love: <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29">Fiorentini + Baker</a>!</p>
<p>As F+B addicts know, once you indulge in a pair of these beautifully handcrafted leather boots, shoes, or sandals, nothing else will do. F+B&#8217;s quality, comfort, and timeless beauty are simply <em>magnifico </em>(as the many celebrities who wear this line will attest)!</p>
<p>So join us for a brief Italian lesson! After seeing Fiorentini + Baker&#8217;s latest designs, we suspect you&#8217;ll want to become fluent in F+B style.</p>
<p>One thing we adore about F+B is their understanding that less is often more, a point made clear in the knockout <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1208&amp;colorID=2236">Elgin Boot</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1208&amp;colorID=2236"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2236/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The clean lines and soft scrunch-a-bility of this minimal mid-calf boot make it <em>perfect </em>for pairing with floaty spring skirts. Of course, it also looks great with jeans! The <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1208&amp;colorID=2236">mattone brick leather version</a> is so rich, but we also offer the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1208&amp;colorID=2237">Elgin in a delicious mocha ice suede</a>! Good luck choosing between the two! (Hint: either one is the right choice!)</p>
<p>Some of you Ped fans have begged us to carry the two-buckle cousin of F+B&#8217;s popular <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=140&amp;colorID=235">Eternity Boot</a>. Well, consider your wish granted! Behold the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1209&amp;colorID=2250">Emmy, also know as style #713</a>:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1209&amp;colorID=2250"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2250/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We are woozy with love for F+B&#8217;s new turquoise leather! It is to die for—so unusual and yet it still works with lots of other colors. (Ped&#8217;s Laura went down for the count when she saw it.) Of course, if you&#8217;re a gal who prefers all things noir, we&#8217;ve got the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1209&amp;colorID=2238">Emmy in black</a>, as well!</p>
<p>Want a few more flourishes? And perhaps a bit of textural contrast? Fiorentini + Baker&#8217;s <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/blog/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&amp;post=2958&amp;message=10">Ebbi</a> has your name on it:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/blog/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&amp;post=2958&amp;message=10"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2235/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>You&#8217;ll give the people following you something to talk about when you saunter down the street in <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/blog/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&amp;post=2958&amp;message=10">the Ebbi </a>because the fold-over suede cuff laces in the back. And the raised seams that arc over the instep and encircle the ankle add further eye-popping interest!</p>
<p>If you like a well-heeled boot to boost your height, then feast your eyes on Fiorentini+Baker&#8217;s new <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1206&amp;colorID=2234">Bessi</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1206&amp;colorID=2234"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2234/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The 3&#8243; stacked-leather heel gives this sexy boot a leg up, while an inside zip lets you breeze in and out in a flash. F+B&#8217;s bonsai green leather is a Ped favorite, and it looks especially fresh on the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1206&amp;colorID=2234">Bessi</a>!</p>
<p>Another great heeled style from F+B is the take-no-prisoners <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1212&amp;colorID=2241">Zilla Clog</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1212&amp;colorID=2241"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2241/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>The hand-cut wooden sole features a 3.5&#8243; heel and a 1.5&#8243; platform under the ball of your foot. The brass studs that rim the collar and attach the luxe black leather upper to the sole are, in a word, <em>b</em><em>adass</em>! Who knew a clog could be this smokin&#8217; hot? (Somebody hand me a fan!)</p>
<p>When it&#8217;s the weather that&#8217;s hot, though, you may want to let your toes out to play. But you can still maintain your brass-studded style—just buckle up F+B&#8217;s <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1210&amp;colorID=2239">Tribo Sandal</a>!<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1210&amp;colorID=2239"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2239/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Take a minute to admire the wonderful details of this easy-going yet dazzling beauty: the leather toe thong is rolled for comfort; the studded straps are leather-lined to be soft against your skin; and the leather sole is designed to mold to your foot with wear. Fiorentini + Baker does it all so well!</p>
<p>Another fantastic F+B sandal is <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1211&amp;colorID=2240">the Tulip</a>:<br />
<a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29&amp;productID=1211&amp;colorID=2240"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2240/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Crafted in our favorite rabbit-hued leather, this flat is both tough and girly, combining the edge of a gladiator sandal with petal-like cutouts that cascade down the front of the foot. What a way to go through spring and summer! Prepare to be the object of everyone&#8217;s sandal envy!</p>
<p>Of course, we have all of F+B&#8217;s classics over at <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/fiorentini_and_baker/fiorentini_and_baker.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=29">Ped&#8217;s main site</a>. So let Fiorentini + Baker&#8217;s leatherwork and style seduce you—we know you&#8217;ll agree: That&#8217;s <em>amore</em>!</p>
<p>(By the way, this week&#8217;s &#8220;sweet treat&#8221; practically sings, &#8220;Spring!&#8221;: <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/karin_wagner/karin_wagner.asp?productLineID=5&amp;vendorID=41&amp;productID=1024&amp;colorID=1871">Karin Wagner&#8217;s delightful Alps Brooch</a>. Simply click &#8220;be sweet to your feet&#8221; in the upper right corner of any Ped page, and you&#8217;ll arrive at the hand-felted Alps Brooch with the magic code that will bring 20% at checkout!)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello to Ped fans from the flood of treasures deluging the Ped warehouse! Fantastic new things for spring and summer are arriving as fast as we can open the boxes!</p>
<p>When we started unpacking Trippen&#8217;s latest, though, everything came to a momentary halt while we all gathered around to smile. Such innovation! Such fun! Such sheer funkiness that makes everyone want to dance! The fact that Trippen is socially committed to treating its workers well and making shoes with as little environmental impact as possible makes us love them all the more! Give it up for German ingenuity and genuine ethics!</p>
<p>Here, for your viewing—and wearing!—pleasure, are a few new Trippen favorites:</p>
<p>Embodying everything we like about Trippen, the new <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1202&amp;colorID=2230">Match</a> is the perfect kick-around shoe for spring (and every other season, come to think of it):</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1202&amp;colorID=2230"><img src="http://www.pedshoes.com/images/colors/2230/main.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>Constructed on Trippen&#8217;s &#8220;penna&#8221; rubber sole, this pebbled brown flat will keep you light on your feet. We love the exposed seams and the back-to-back button closure in front!</p>
<p>Another winner in the lightweight category is the <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1203&amp;colorID=2231">Trippen Sioux</a>:</p>

<p>So soft and utterly featherweight, this simple leather charmer redefines &#8220;comfortable.&#8221; Once you wear it,  we predict the rest of your shoes are going to get a little dusty.</p>
<p>Another great wear-everywhere shoe, also built on Trippen&#8217;s &#8220;cups&#8221; rubber sole, is <a href="http://http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=332&amp;colorID=2229">the Knife</a>:<br />

<p>What&#8217;s fantastic about the lacing is it not only looks great, but it also adjusts to accommodate almost any foot width. Form <em>and</em> function = the best!</p>

<p>Not nearly as terrifying as a big, hairy spider, but heart-stopping in its own way, <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1204&amp;colorID=2232">the Tarantula</a> will have all eyes on you!

<p>It&#8217;s hard to single out one design, but perhaps the favorite of all our favorites is Trippen&#8217;s new <a href="http://www.pedshoes.com/trippen_nouveau/trippen_nouveau.asp?productLineID=1&amp;vendorID=45&amp;productID=1201&amp;colorID=2228">Good</a>:<br />
