Oh how I love shoes!

Not Imelda Marcos love, but I seriously adore shoes.

I have been on a massive shoe diet since last summer, but I ventured out this week to scan the new spring shoe trends and there are so many great new styles.

Shoes – I’ve missed you! Here are two of my favorite shoe trends for spring.

1. The “natural” block heel.

These nude booties with peep toe and laser cut outs are spectacular and reasonable to boot (pun intended). And for those of you who shy away from high heels, these chunky heels are chic but comfy:

Okay, stick with me on this one girls. I get these sandals are a little ’70s (in the best way). They look tortoise inspired from this heel view, but flip to the side view and they’re clear on the inside half and wood on the back half. I think they are ridiculously cool.

While I would never spend this kind of money on a pair of shoes, you have to admit they are crazy cool. I love the juxtaposition of the black and wood and you can mimic this look in a lower price style elsewhere.

Here’s another perfect pair showing the natural block styling from Nordstrom’s; these are just in time for summer as they marry the bootie/block/natural/nude.

2. As you saw from some of the options above, neutrals are everywhere. You all know how I adore me some nude/taupe/beige shoes.

It’s not all work all the time and while I don’t typically like super bare sandals, I love the simplicity and cut of these nude flat sandals for summer and these leaf detailed neutral sandals with an edge. Perfect for weekends.

I like to find interesting details. There’s nothing like a simple elegant heel, but I am a sucker for a twist and these otherwise classic nude heels do the twist just right with these laser cut outs.

Along the same lines, I’m totally digging these sandy heels with the lace up back detail, linen feel, and a wooden stiletto:

Okay, sound off! Did I make you fall asleep with all the neutrals? I know it’s not bright pink but seriously this is some gorgeous stylin’ trends for this season. What do you love that’s fresh on the shelves?
