Sacramento Fashion Blogger Meet-up Part Deux

Today was the second Sacramento Fashion Blogger meet-up. We started out at the Midtown Bazaar perusing the vendor wares while I was apparently perusing the diversity of shoes among the bloggers (see below). Then we moved over to Streets of London to talk shop over ciders and sodas. If you are looking to explore the range of fashion blogs that Sacramento has to offer, look no farther than a pair of feet. The footwear chosen by each blogger reflects a little bit about their blog, so pick a pair of shoes and go explore!

1. Innovative and Stylish, but really you were pulled in by the cool tights worn by Natale of Evelesco: http://evelesco.blogspot.com/

2. Polished and Professional, in fact it’s the New Professional by Angeline: http://the-new-professional.blogspot.com/

3. Sassy yet Functional, this pair of kickers belongs to Melody from It’s all happening: http://melody-stone.blogspot.com/

4. Daring and Romantic, try out Coco’s blog Muffin Top Baby: http://muffintopbaby.blogspot.com/

5. Spunky and New, well her blog is new to me at least, so I am excited to start following Nicole of Little Bits of Nikknak: http://nikkibit.blogspot.com/

6. Oh that’s me, silly, Jen from Wade and Associates. I can’t really describe myself. I’ll leave that to objective third parties (which means I’ve run out of adjectives).

7. Thrifted and Lovely, Kari writes for Juniper James: http://juniperjames.wordpress.com/ and Thrift Town: http://www.thrifttown.com/blog/

8. Eclectic and Pretty, these cute socks and shoes belong to Bella from The Citizen Rosebud: http://www.thecitizenrosebud.com/ and Street Style Sacramento: http://www.streetstylesacramento.com/

I never imagined in a million years

that my first post would be about men’s shoes (and expensive men’s shoes at that) but I suppose our minds should always be open to the unexpected. I received a random email about Esquivel Shoes and instantly fell in love with them – the colors, the designs, the vintage and timeless aspect cobbled into each shoe. I consider myself to be thrifty with one exception – SHOES. My father is the same way. Growing up he always said to take care of your feet by buying nice shoes and I suppose I’m at that age when you realize that your father was right about a couple … some … many things. What other item of clothing has such a lasting impact on your body? Even now my arches ache from dancing too long in vintage slouch boots over the weekend. George Esquivel is quoted on his website as saying “there are no shortcuts to true luxury.” I don’t know if I fully agree, but for shoes I’ll concede. I was even more excited to discover that in just the past two years he has started selling women’s shoes as well. You can expect to see more women’s Oxford lace-up shoes in Spring 2010.
