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.

Closeout Sale on Boots

Boot Barn is having a Closeout Sale on two of its previously popular brands: Ariat and Harley-Davidson. All styles from both of these brands are marked down to ridiculous sale prices. I'm pretty sure that all sales are final, so you may want to be careful about sizing. Although these boots are not particular my style, I could definitely work with these 'Darla' motorcycle boots in my wardrobe, although I'd much rather have a Harley-Davidson. There are plenty of other styles--from work boots to cowboy boots--available on closeout, so check out the fabulous prices while supplies last.

*Deal of the Week* Over $100 Off Camper Boots

To me, this week's *Deal of the Week* comes just a few inches short of being the perfect LBB--Little Black Boot. I love these Camper 'Rachael' boots because they have a low enough heel in a sturdy non-stiletto shape which means they might actually be comfortable for long hours of walking and wearing. They have an elongated toe that's rounded off rather than pointy, which gives you more options for outfits. They don't have any kind of hardware, so they can be paired with any purse or jewelry. The only problem is that I wish they were a little closer to knee-high than mid-calf; I like a tall boot. Still, I do love them overall. I also love this tidbit from the website: "The slogan “Walk. Don’t Run” expresses the Camper philosophy of slow living and in the appreciation and attention to detail. These values can be found in Camper original footwear designs created with the passion and flavor of the Mediterranean." And you've just gotta love the price: $199.50, marked down from $329.95. They also come in a gorgeous, bright Chestnut.

25% Off Steve Madden Shoes

Looking for some warmer footwear as the weather starts to chill? You can save 25% off any pair of shoes or boots from Steve Madden by using code SM25OFF at checkout. Style Bard faves from the new arrival boots are these 'AVENSIS' short boots. Maybe I've been watching too much Sons of Anarchy, but apparently no biker boot will do for me unless it can actually kick your ass. (You know...not you, on particular. You can come out from behind that fern, now.) These boots are already on sale for $50 off, so with this code, your total savings are looking like 40% off the original asking price. Plus, this code also enables you to receive free shipping! It's one hell of a great deal. So check out the latest Fall styles from Steve Madden while this sale lasts.

New Final Sale Shoes Added at Piperlime

Piperlime is always refreshing its sale section, where you can save major cash. New shoes were just sent to the Final Sale category, which means the shoes you couldn't afford last season may be well within your budget now; Final Sale shoes are up to 60% off their original price! I have to warn you, though, if you're a boot fanatic like me: there are a TON of adorable designer boots at deep discount rates now that the weather is warming up. A pair of boots I almost bought 3 weeks ago at $280.00 are now half-off, and I would be totally kicking myself if I'd gotten them then! And how about these attitude-laden 'Landra' boots by Bronx? They were originally $235.00, and are now less then $90 in Brown or Black! Remember, all sales are final and stock won't be replenished, so shop before your size runs out. Another helpful tip is to check the reviews, which I've found to be helpful, informative and honest when shopping at Piperlime. With all-sales-final shoe shopping, hearing from satisfied (or not) customers about comfort and width and sizing can make all the difference.

*Deal of the Week* $5 Off Any Shoebuy Boots!

I love Shoebuy because you can shop by browsing about 50 different shoe categories, shop by brand name or choose a color, size, heel height or price range. It's really easy to find exactly what you're looking for. You can also just hit 'View All' and sort through hundreds and hundreds of fabulous options at clearance prices. Today we're looking at Boots, because you can instantly save $5.00 off any pair of boots on Shoebuy for a limited time (this includes rain boots, which you may need during Spring downpour!). Style Bard faves are these Born 'Cony' boots in suede for the bark-colored diamond harlequin pattern. They remind me of a cross between a riding boot and a fashion boot, and they're infinitely more interesting that a solid black or brown shoe. They also look really comfortable, and I'm a fan of Born shoes. Whichever boots you choose, just head to checkout to see your $5 off discount apply.

Shoe Hunt!

I received this email from a reader the other day:

I am trying to locate (online, preferably) some comfortable/cute winter boots in size 11. I know you can point me in the right direction help meee I need to buy some asap all I seem to have at the moment are Champion sneakers.

If they don't exist I wouldn't be surprised but I am hoping you know a site or two with big foot sizes. Brown or black just something I can wear a lot.......I'm flexible on prices

Pretty please
B

You all know what that means; it's time for another Shoe Hunt! As always, the Style Bard is happy to oblige. I know the ins and outs of shoe shopping websites, where to find the best shoe sales, free shipping and special requests. But what good is all that useful knowledge if its not helping anyone? So if you ever need help finding affordable, hard-to-find shoes, don't hesitate to shoot me an email and I'll try my very best.

Here are some cute all-weather winter boots in size 11:

Polar, Black Quilted by Soft Style @ Designer Shoes These are a great traditional choice with insulated quilting and patent bottoms, with non-slip tread at the bottom. And they're quite affordable! $65.00

Elise, Black Stretch by Soft Style @ Designer Shoes For a dressier version of a winter boot. $65.00

Nadia by Crocs @ 6PM The Style Bard suggesting Crocs? Indeed I am. If you're just trying to make it to the car and back, I see no reason why these wouldn't do the trick. Besides, they're now 37% off for only $40.25!

Cerro Trail Boot by Adidas These are my top recommendation for a heavy-duty winter boot. These are for when you're not messing around. A great value for the price, from a well-known athletic brand. $100.00

New Silverthorne Boot by Minnetonka @ 6PM Stylish, comfortable, warm. Available in Black, Sand, and Brown. What more can you ask for? Oh, what if these are a whopping 51% off, now pricing at a reasonable $48.88

Cascadian Snowflake by Columbia @ 6PM Who says winter boots have to be boring? These ankle boots are available in powder blue and pale pink as well as traditional brown and black. These are 44% off at $41.40


Snowbunny by Kamik @ 6PM And while we're talking about colorful and creative, how about these?? I mean, these aren't for the wallflowers, but if you like a big kick of color to lighten up your cloudiest, snowiest of days, these are just the thing to cheer up your frigid days. They're also available in Blue, Camo, Metallic, Silver, Brown and Black. Another cheery factory? They're 49% off at a mere $28.75

Downtown by Kamik @ 6PM Another classic faux-fur lined version of the mid-calf winter boot, available in Black or Brown. Now 43% off at $57.50

Bellino 2 by Khombu @ 6PM These are a great combination of cute and practical, with a suede cover and fur trim, but also comfortable insoles with non-slip soles. Available in Black, Tan, Olive and Brown. 44% off at $71.88

Snowpeak by Ugg Australia @ The Walking Company If you're looking for comfort and quality, you have to try Uggs. Waterproof, insulated and renowned for their comfort and durability, Ugg also has a wide variety of styles and colors. 'Snowpeak' comes in White, Brown and Black. And they come with Free Shipping! $199.00

Upside by Ugg Austalia @ The Walking Company This more classic-looking style of Ugg Austalia, available in Suede or Leather, comes with sheepskin lining, and you can get them in five shades of Brown, Black and Gray. These also come with Free Shipping. $229.95

Brookfield Tall by Ugg Australia @ The Walking Company These are another favorite of mine. I like the trendy riding-style appearance blended with the standard Ugg durability, warmth and comfort. Unfortunately, these only come in size 10 or 12, but if you're the type who can go either way, these are definitely worth a try due to Free Shipping and easy returns. $199.95

Save Money with ShoeParlor

Shoe Parlor is rewarding shoppers who get their holiday shopping done on time (unlike the Style Bard, sadly) by providing two codes with two ways to save! You can take $15 off orders of $100 or more (with code SPGIFT), or a whopping $65 dollars off orders of $350 or more (code SPDEAL)! Style Bard faves at Shoe Parlor include these funky black Soho boots by Eric Michaels, which will qualify you for $15 off! (And are also available in Brown.)
