PacSun Extends Cyber Monday Deals

Guess what? You get one extra day to shop . Since I didn't get to cover PacSun's deals in yesterday's coverage, I was excited to receive an e-mail at 5pm letting me know I'd get a second shot to tell you about it. Shoe savings include 20% off the entire website, plus Free Shipping! All you have to do is spend at least $50, which is easy with options like these Black Poppy Lazercut Laced Wedges for $29.50, among other steals. So I think it's pretty clear why I'm excited--and you should be, too.

Cyber Monday Shoe Sales

It's back to the desk for most of us, but hopefully the allure of amazing one-day shoe sales will keep our minds off of this depressing fact--and, in fact, keep us awake as we await our 1pm leftover turkey melt sandwich (or in my case, a yogurt, because c'mon, this holiday weight isn't going to lose itself).

Happy Thanksgiving!

This is Style Bard's favorite holiday and, surprisingly, it has nothing to do with shopping. I'll be escaping NYC to spend the long weekend with friends and family. However, check back Monday for a long list of links with your best bets for shoe sales on Cyber Monday!

20% Off Christabelle's Closet for Thanksgiving

Some deals start sooner than others, and you can start your holiday savings early at Christabelle's Closet (though the deal runs straight through Cyber Monday). Christabelle's Closet is a consignment website that features discounted designer shoes. Although you have to check back frequently for new wares, they may have an outstanding deal in your size. For example, these out-of-season Prada sandals were marked down to only $90, but because it's now winter, they're an additional 30% off. What size are these savings? You'll have to click through to see. If you're in luck, they can be yours for an additional 20% off throughout the rest of this week with code CYBER20. Plus, enjoy Free Shipping!

The Walking Company - Free Gift with Boots

Buy new winter boots from The Walking Company--which specializes in high-quality, name-brand comfort shoes--and you'll receive full-body comfort with a Free Gift of a plush and cozy Zealand blanket, a $40 value that ships with your order while this deal lasts. Options include these Ugg Australia 'Gissella' ankle boots that perfectly blend style with comfort--kudos, Ugg, you're getting less fugly every single year and I cannot wait to consider shopping this brand in 2020.

Last Day - Boots $100 or Less

Use the button below to find a selection of boots marked down to $100 or less at 6PM! A wide selection are actually even $50 or less--you can check out results for certain price ranges by using the search perimeters. By playing around, I've wound up choosing Women->9.5->Ankle->% Off and discovered these Sam Edelman 'Joss' boots for 50% off at about $90. Not exactly my style, but I dig the vibe, so if it's your thing you should hurry and snatch them up at this price. But don't wait too long, because this sale ends tonight.

*Deal of the Week* Sale on Insoles - First Time Ever

Women's Premium

The Walking Company is now offering a brand new deal on their comfort insoles. When you buy any one pair, the next is 25% off. No codes or any other special finagling is necessary, just add two items to your cart and see the second/lesser one marked down. All sorts of styles and shapes are available to fit any foot's support needs. I have insoles plugged permanently into a few pairs of my favorite shoes, and it's a blessing each and every time I slip them on. If you're a fan of wearing ridiculously uncomfortable shoes like me for the sake of beauty, you might want to at least give your gorgeous, masochistic self a small break with comfort insoles.

One Day Sale - 25% Off Boots at Piperlime

Just for today, save 25% off any pair of boots at Piperlime! Yes, that's a tremendous deal and I don't blame you if you stopped reading this to jump right over there and start shopping. Especially if you were lured by these 'Broady3' wedge boots by Bandolino. They're not only very in style, but they're utterly affordable--and Bandolino even makes fairly comfortable shoes. Just be sure to note that you must enter code TAKE25 when you're checking out to see discounts applied. Also, the deal excludes Merrell, North Face and Hunter. But that's really all you need to go so shoo, shoo! Don't let me keep you a moment longer while there are new boots to buy!

Boot Sale at Endless - Last Day

Today's the last day to save 25% off your new boots from Endless. All you need to do is spend at least $75 to qualify, and then the 25% comes off your total order. A smattering of brands are not included, so be sure to double-check before you checkout (you'll see the savings accounted for before your order goes through). Style Bard's friend recently got a pair just like these fun-named 'Detective' boots by Naughty Monkey--and the silhouette is actually far more flattering than you'd suspect. They come in five colors for less than $100 at Endless.

Free Next-Day Shipping from Shopbop

Enjoy free next-day shipping on all orders of Shopbop shoes! But act fast, because this out-of-nowhere deal lasts just a few days. There is no code or really any other stipulations, simply shop, checkout and enjoy instant savings, well, pretty instantly (since your shoes will show up the very next day). Style Bard suggests saving on the New Arrivals section, which includes such shoes as these 'Penny' snakeskin wedges that I want more than life right now--and yet, having had Ramen for dinner, probably not enough to do so for the next month or so while I paid these beauties off. Even with free next-day shipping.

Fall Shoe Savings at Victoria's Secret

How much you save depends on how much you spend when it comes to buying new shoes from Victoria's Secret. When you spend $100, you'll see $15 knocked off the price. That doubles to $30 of savings on $150, goes up to $75 in savings on $250 and doubles again to $150 in savings when you spend $500. Just use code FALL10 when you've reached your shopping total in order to see your total savings. Style Bard loves the whimsy of these embellished "shooties" by Betsey Johnson, which would instantly be reduced by $30.

Last Day - Reebok Friends & Family Sale

Today's the last day you can save 30% at the Reebok Friends and Family Sale. Just place any order for new shoes or sneakers, including toning styles the EasyTone "Go Outside II" (and let's admit you're thinking about your thighs and ass as Thanksgiving hurtles toward us like an avalanche of tiny marshmallows snowballing down a heap of delicious homemade sweet potatoes). This style in particular comes in four colors and is already marked down by $40--before your added savings. Just use code FRIEND when you're ready to check out. Plus, all orders instantly qualify for Free Shipping--which is exactly the sort of extra service and savings you'd expect as a friend or family member of a shoe shop owner, so way to go Reebok.

*Deal of the Week* The Walking Company's Fall Sale - This Weekend Only

Ready to invest in some comfort footwear? The Walking Company has loads of trusted high-end comfort shoes marked down this weekend as part of its Fall Sale. That includes brands like Ugg Australia, Umberto Raffini, Sofft, Clarks and Dansko. It also features these smart 'Hanna Buckle' pumps by Ecco, which are just the right professor-meets-student vibe. But--as my friend will remind you because she just did this last week--just don't assume that "comfort shoes" means you can wear them around all day and all night on your first day. They're still "new shoes" before they're "comfort shoes"--so break them in slowly, just like with any others.

Last Day - 25% Off Aldo Clearance Boots + Free Shipping

Today is the last day that you can shop already-discounted Aldo boots and take an additional 25% off the lowest price. Prices on the website already reflect this extra price cut--but only through midnight tonight, at which point they'll still be on clearance, but not quite as cheap. And then you'll be kicking yourself with--presumably--cold, bare feet. Style Bard faves are these casual wedge 'RULNICK' tall boots. Originally $180, for the rest of the day they're only $59.99. For those of us horrid at math, that's 1/3 of the price! Plus, when you shop for a limited time on the Aldo site, all orders ship for free. And yes, that definitely means for the rest of today when you order your new boots, so get shopping!

They're now the full 70% off, and of course they come with Free Shipping.

New! Faster Free Shipping from Piperlime

Piperlime always offered Free Shipping. In fact, its powers were so far-reaching that if you ordered from Old Navy, Gap or Banana Republic and added any item from Piperlime to your cart, you could receive Free Shipping. But your new shoes (and possibly a new outfit, too!) used to take up to a week to get to you. If you wanted faster shipping, you still had to pay. But as of this week, Piperlime now offers Free Shipping in 3-5 business days on every order: no codes, no minimums. And yes, this still extends to the site's sister-stores as well. Making it even quicker and easier for you to splurge on those cold-weather boots you've been aching for, like these steampunk-style 'Niles' peep-toe ankle boots by none other than Betsey Johnson. They're available in two colors and already marked down by about $100.

Additionally, all orders ship for free for an undisclosed, limited time.

Using the button below will take you to all qualifying shoes on Bluefly.com, including these Giuseppe Zanotti 'black suede jeweled grommet pumps' that seem like they'd go without absolutely anything thanks to the colored gems decorating the upper. It also excites me because I'm very strict about matching my hardware and jewelry, which can really limit options--unless you have shoes like these. They're now 24% off their original price, which is just the start of fabulous savings in today's sale.

The Walking Company's Pre-Holiday Sale on Ugg Boots

Need incentive to shop early to avoid the holiday crunch? The Walking Company just reduced the price on knit Ugg boots so that they're less than $100--but for a limited time only. Sale styles include these 'Fringe Cardy' which are available in four colors and on sale for $50 off their usual cost. Sadly, the new low price point means they no longer qualify for Free Shipping (unless you add to your order so that it's over $100), but you do still get Free Returns.

New! Free Shipping on Jildor Shoes

For the first time, Jildor Shoes has instituted a site-wide Free Shipping policy. All shoes are shipped free when the total order meets or surpasses $150. No codes are necessary and this promotion is ongoing. Most Jildor Shoes orders already meet this minimum, so it's essentially a freebie for most shoppers! Style Bard faves for fall are these new 'Uma' wedge ankle boots by Ash. They look like the perfect balance of style and practicality as far as I'm concerned, the everyday shoe I'd always want to reach for on cold mornings. They come in two colors, but they also come in knee-high if you're looking for this trend for skirts. And yes, they meet the qualifications for Free Shipping.

Free Shipping on Banana Republic Shoes - Starts Today

If you stepped outside this week and were thinking about buying warmer shoes as soon as the cold hit your sandals that you're still wearing because you didn't get the message that it was already November (warning: this story may come from real life), then you may be interested in shopping Banana Republic's offerings this week while all purchases over $50 automatically come with Free Shipping. Just use code BRFREE50 when you're about to check out. And who are we kidding? It's practically impossible to order anything from there, much less shoes, without spending at least that, so you're covered as long as you remember to use the code when buying such items as these 'Pretty' ruffle booties in Smoke or Black.
