Fall 2010 Footwear Trends at Sears





Sears has enlisted the expertise of stylist and former Elle editor Francesca Mills to create a new look and a brand new image for Sears fashion. Here, the style expert highlights four key footwear trends for fall: Slouch Boots, Preppy, Clogs and Hardware.

Sears has also launched a new Facebook page, Sears Footwear Fashion First, with more videos, lookbook photos and fashion tips, and a Twitter account (@SearsFashion1st) where shoppers can get the latest news on Sears contests, giveaways and more.

I kinda like the wedge loafer (reminds me of last fall's 'Jurra' by Nine West) and the 'Rhianne' boot (which looks identical to the 'Keara' by Mossimo for Target). Hopefully the Sears Facebook page will make it easier for shoppers to hone in on the goodies that can be found at Sears.com, a vast and oftentimes clunky website.

Think you'll be shopping at Sears for shoes this fall?

I Heart Ronson for JCPenney Fall 2010 Lookbook




Here's a look at the fall 2010 collection for I "Heart" Ronson for JCPenney, a complete sportswear line of tees, knit tops, blouses, sweaters, jeans, skirts, dresses and jackets by designer Charlotte Ronson. For fall, Ronson puts her downtown-chic spin on fun fall trends like plaid, denim on denim, ruffles, boyfriend cardigans and leggings. The styling is edgy yet girly with ankle socks, leopard heels and sassy lace tights. Pieces are affordably priced from $15 for tees, $35 for some seriously cute dresses to $50.40 for a faux-fur lined vest and $60.20 for an outdoorsy parka (one of my favorites). I'd be all over this collection if I were a teen! The fall collection will be made available in stores and online at jcp.com from August - October. Click through to see all the looks.


Isabel Toledo for Payless Fall 2010


Four shoe styles from the Isabel Toledo for Payless collection, which had been slated to launch in early September, have popped up on the Payless website. There's a metallic ghillie flat, a black ghillie flat, funky ghillie heel, and pom pom flat, all priced under $40. The designer, who follows in the collab footsteps of Lela Rose, Patricia Field and Christian Siriano, described her shoes as "pure Toledo—playful, bold and strong." There's supposed to be 7 shoe styles total and 2 handbags in the collection so stay tuned! Bigger pics after the jump.

The Look for Less: Jeffrey Campbell 'Tick' Wedge Boot

Here's a reader request: Jeffrey Campbell's popular 'Tick' peep-toe wedge boot, as seen on Ashley Tisdale, costs $150 at Singer22.com.


This is a slingback but I think it's a great way to get the look for less: Madden Girl's 'Kallie' Wedge, $44.95 at dsw.com in four colors.


This wedge has some scrunching and ruching but it's another style that's pretty close to the 'Tick': It's called the Black Jade 'Paperbag' wedge heel, on sale for $29 at torrid.com.
