Tuesday Shoesday Archives - Just Jodi Style

Happy Tuesday everyone! With Labor Day weekend approaching this is the best excuse to break out your best shoes to celebrate the final weekend of Summer 2017. Crazy to think that is Summer is almost officially over and Fall is just around the corner. Since last year I have officially become a sneaker junkie. I have come to love sneakers as my in between shoes when it’s too cold to wear sandals outside, but not cold enough to wear booties. My Mom as I have told you all before is my go to when it comes to finding amazing items at a fraction of the price. For a very special #tuesdayshoesday I have a steals & deals just for all of you. A lot of high end designers are making sneakers with glitter into their collections including Gucci and Golden Goose Deluxe Brands. However, even though I love a great pair of sneakers I don’t necessarily know how often I would wear a full on glitter pair. For this reason I wasn’t willing to spend $500+ on a pair of sneakers that I don’t see myself wearing more than once in a blue moon. My Mom told me about this amazing website Lori’s. Lori’s based in Chicago similar to Jildor sell multiple brands on one site. Sometimes I have gone to sites such as Lori’s when big box retailers are sold out of sizes and sometimes have color options that they may not necessarily carry. These glittery Dolce Vita sneakers are $99.95 on Lori’s website right now! A test I always do on glitter sneakers is to brush my hand across them and see if any glitter rubs off on my hands. The last thing that you want is for glitter to get all over your clothes. We all know that glitter is the absolute WORST thing to get anywhere especially your clothes. It is almost impossible to get it off completely. I can still see some glitter on my bedroom floor in Miami after spilling some from a school project. These shoes I will say leaves no glitter behind. I also love the suede pink detailing and leopard fur on the back of the shoe. They are so comfortable which I was surprised with because I thought with all the glitter they would be too stiff and cause so many blisters on my feet. Dolce Vita has a lot of other great sneaker options on Lori’s website, but if you want this exact pair CLICK HERE.

To everyone in Houston I hope you are all staying as safe as possible. From a girl who survived the worst hurricane recorded (Hurricane Andrew) know that we are all thinking of you. <3

Happy Tuesday! Can you all believe it is already August 1st? Crazy how quickly the summer has gone by. Sorry that I have been so MIA this past month. I have been traveling and working on ways to make Just Jodi Style better. I am back now and ready to give you all amazing new content. Since last year I have been looking for a pair of metallic sandals like a pair I had in high school to be my new it summer sandal. I had seen that Birkenstock had made metallic sandals and even a classic all white pair last year, but I could never find my size. I have very thin fit so sometimes even though the shoe may fit length it wont’ fit around the top of my foot. The amount of times that I have been searching for a shoe to finally find it to have it not fit me properly is more than I would like. When I saw these rose gold Birkenstock sandals I immediately tried to find my size. I searched for months and months and because I wasn’t sure what size I needed I was looking for two sizes. I put my name on countless waitlists to then finally find it on Amazon in a size 6.5. Sadly, there was too much room around the top of my foot even on the tightest buckle. Then I was back on the hunt! Finally Zappos emailed me that they had them in a size 6 the only difference was the bottom of the shoes were black instead of white. I honestly preferred the black bottom because with walking around the streets of Manhattan white shoes get dirty pretty quickly. The size 6 came and they fit PERFECTLY! They are so comfortable and I love the rose gold coloring on them. The last time I owned a pair of Birkenstock’s I was at sleep away camp. The main reason I purchased them back then was to avoid having to put on real shoes for morning line up. Don’t tell me that I was the only one that did that. If you were looking for these sandals like I was head on over to Zappos right now before they are all gone! They have them now with both the black and white bottoms so you can now take your pick. Have a great day <3
