Man Week: Mark Weighs in on Men's Ugly Shoes
Ugly Shoes I Would Never Wear
I have no desire to stand out. Perhaps that is a negative personality trait (and explains my irrational hatred of the teenager on my bus that wears a fedora), but it also guarantees that I won’t be walking around in bright orange and silver shoes. Bright, florescent, and oddly shaped shoes seem to be very popular in America (and also Miami) and I am not quite sure...

Man Week: Our picks for men's dress shoes
What Bond would wear on his feet, that’s how we approached writing this post. We here at Shoetube are huge fans of the suit and no one wears it quite as well as our favorite Bond, Daniel Craig. There are plenty of sites online that will give you the run down on how to properly wear a suit, but there isn’t a lot of advice out there on what to wear on your feet. Allow us to help you...

Prior to commencing this entry, I should own up to the fact that I, the...

Celebrity Style: Tila Tequila
Yes, we went there.
We feel like this is a fairly timely piece considering her recent stint in the news. Juggalos, fans of hip hop group Insane Clown Posse, threw rocks, beer bottles and… poop at Tila while she was on stage. The article makes a good point:
She was due to sing at the hip hop concert in front of a bunch of fans who take their music and bands seriously, so seriously that...

Footwear Trends for Fall 2010
This fall, fashion seems to be taking a step away from the ultra-feminine and getting a little more masculine.
Lace-Up Booties
We like this take on lace up booties because there’s actually a hidden side zipper that lets you get in and out of the boots without having to deal with all of that lacing. The warm brown is a great fall color and the heel keeps the shoe from looking too...

Massachusetts native Ali Fedotowsky became famous as a contestant on The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love, fighting for Bachelor Jake Pavelka’s heart. But it sure hasn’t been an easy ride! She made it to the “final four” in the last season of The Bachelor and was rumored to be the favorite contestant.

Shortly after, the maturing actress played multiple leading roles in popular films like Freaky Friday and every teen girl’s favorite, Mean Girls.

Lace-Ups: Sneak Peek for Fall
As much as we hate to admit it, fall comes pretty fast in New England. Squeeze as much out of summer as you can, but don’t let fall blindside you. A good way to prepare is to slowly build in new pieces to your wardrobe that can transition well between seasons. A great example of this is the lace-up high heel bootie. Paired with a floral dress and light colors, the booties maintain a summery...

Her character’s style is true to...

Badgley Mischka Shoes
There’s something very elegant about these shoes. They use a classic shoe style, like a pump or a low-heeled sandal, and then add embellishments that aren’t in the least bit gaudy. We can picture wearing these to a wedding at the Fairmont Copley Plaza Hotel or out for tea and cookies at Tealuxe.

Spy Shoes
In honor of the spy craziness that has hit Boston, we’ve decided to showcase the shoes that we would wear if we were asked to go into deep cover for Mother Russia as a party girl/espionage extraordinaire. We think that when opting to look like a sexy spy, you should look for shoes that look classy and not too flashy. You’ll be moving in high-class social circles now where timeless...

Boston News: Russian Spies in Cambridge?
Well this is ridiculous.
Correct me if I’m wrong but I was under the impression that the Cold War was over. To give you a short recap, federal agents have busted a ring of supposed Russian spies given long-term, deep cover missions and planted in the U.S. Two of the ten people accused of spying for Mother Russia are Donald Heathfield and Tracey Foley who have been living as a couple in...
