Minnetonka Kilty Women’s Suede Moc Slip-on Loafer

The Minnetonka Kilty Moc is a true American classic; and it’s the perfect go-to shoe that’s appropriate for just about any occasion.

Stressful scenario #1: OH NO! It’s 7:45 AM on a Monday morning. My Organic Chemistry Lecture starts in 15 minutes and I’m still in bed! What am I possibly going to wear that’s not going to make me look like I literally rolled out of bed, without taking a look in the mirror before leaving my dorm?

Our style solution: Don’t even give it any further thought, darling! Luckily for you, you’ve recently purchased a sweet pair of Minnetonka Kilty Mocs, which looks fabulous with just about anything. Pair the Kilty with your favorite skinny jeans and an oversized sweater. While you’re at it, throw on a bohemian statement necklace for an inspired look that definitely does not say: I woke up 15 minutes ago; but rather, I’m prepared, focused, totally comfortable and ready to take good notes. Most importantly, I look fabulous at 8AM on a Monday morning.

Possible stress-inducing scenario #2: Brian wants me to meet and have dinner with his super conservative family in the Hamptons this weekend. From what he’s told me about them, they seem like really awesome people who I can’t wait to meet. I want to make a good impression; however, I don’t believe I should have to compromise my natural, free-spirited style.

Our style solution: Guuuurrrrl! With the Minnetonka Kilty Moc, you will not have to compromise a thing! Priced at $39.95, these suede mocs are nothing short of a steal! The same suede mocs that are essential to your free-spirited style can be equally effective in a formal situation. Pair the Kilty with a light-pink, short-sleeve polo. Pop the collar (yes, people still do this, and it’s totally acceptable). Combine said polo with light-washed denim cut-offs (you’re going to be in the Hamptons, after all). Put on a fresh-water pearl necklace, and let your hair down for a look that is simultaneously liberal and conservative. Brian’s parents will not be able to resist your charm!

To conclude, the Minnetonka Kilty is a stunning, versatile moccasin, and a great value! When you buy Minnetonka, you know you’re getting built-to-last quality, and shoes that are going to become more and more comfortable with each wear. If you love the Kilty, be sure to check out the Minnetonka El Paso and the Minnetonka Peace Moc, which are also cute and adorable, and an excellent value.

Miz Mooz Angie Women’s Hi-top Sneaker Wedge

The sneaker wedge is the hottest thing in street fashion right now. You only have to walk a couple of blocks in any trendy New York City neighborhood to notice some fashionista, or perhaps even a celebrity donning this new, innovative design in women’s fashion footwear. Superstars such as Beyonce, Miranda Kerr, and Ciara, to name just a few, have all been recently photographed sportin’ the sneaker wedge. Because there’s just so much buzz in the industry about the sneaker wedge, we have unanimously decided to make the Miz Mooz Angie our shoe of the week.

The Miz Mooz Angie sneaker wedge combines a high-top sneaker with a hidden heel in the form of a wedge. This 3-inch heel gives you some height, however you still get that comfort you’ve come to expect from sneakers. The brilliance of the Miz Mooz Angie sneaker wedge is that in addition to providing your feet with support, this high-top will also give you that slim and slender look that you normally can’t get with traditional sneakers. It’s the perfect way to instantly elevate what would otherwise be a rather casual look.

We recommend pairing the Miz Mooz Angie sneaker wedge with sexy, dark skinny jeans for a look that would be very appropriate at the game, or for a night out with the ladies. For everyday style, the Angie looks stunning and effortless combined with a miniskirt, bermuda shorts, or denim cut-offs. Get yours today in an irresistible whisky, a classic black, or a versatile beige.

Dr. Martens Shoreditch Women’s High-Top Lace-Up Canvas Sneaker

If you’ve never owned a pair of Dr. Martens, then you’ve been missing out on what are quite possibly the most durable, comfortable shoes—once they’ve been broken in.  The brand itself, initially embraced by the working class, evokes images of the underground, rebellion, revolution, and non-conformity. Yet, if all of this sounds a little too extreme for you, say hello to the Shoreditch, a women’s high-top lace-up sneaker by Dr. Martens, which could be the ideal, mild introduction to a brand long known for providing its wearers with built-to-last quality, comfort, and style.

The Shoreditch is our Shoe of the Week; and we believe that it’s the perfect boot with just the right amount of street attitude for your sunny weather wardrobe. With an upper made of canvas for optimal breathability, consider this sneaker an updated, lighter version of that classic Dr. Martens combat design you know and love. This durable canvas upper features classic laces for the ultimate fit; while a supportive rubber sole provides all-day comfort.

We’re crazy about the Shoreditch during this particular time of the year because it’s just so light-weight. However, because it’s Dr. Martens, we know that these casual canvas sneakers, like the rest of our Dr. Martens, will stand the test of time. Make an effortless statement to the world about your stylistic freedom and get yours today in burgundy, blue, black, or an inspired by the season, floral pink.

Miz Mooz Hilary High Heel Platform Sandal

The Miz Mooz Hilary is our shoe of the week; and it has truly become a staff favorite here at Infinity Shoes. This gorgeous sandal is inspired by the Heather, a rockin’ high heel sandal from Miz Mooz’s spring 2011 collection.

Many who had the opportunity to purchase the Heather would agree that it has a timeless appeal that transcends seasonal trends. In fact, with the warm weather that we’ve been getting rather prematurely in New York City, several of us here have brought back our Heathers and worn them with surprisingly sweet compliments from strangers on our commute to work.

When you have a design with a timeless quality that works, you generally don’t want to mess with it, or alter it in any fashion. Yet, even though the Heather was one of Miz Mooz’s more successful shoes, its designers did not want to duplicate something from the past simply because it worked so well for them. Instead, they decided to deconstruct the Heather, while holding on to its core, and updating it with contemporary elements, to bring to life the Hilary, our shoe of the week.

The Miz Mooz Hilary features a two-piece leather upper with an open toe and coppery-brown nailhead accents that help conjoin the upper to the wooden sole. This two-piece upper features intricate cut-outs and detailed stitching.

A buckled ankle strap on this sandal adjusts for the perfect fit. And a 3-inch heel gives a nice left; however, you get the boost—pain free—thanks to the Hilary’s 1-inch wooden platform. The offset is thus a modest 2 inches. With a soft, lightly cushioned leather footbed, you’ll be feeling comfortable all day long in these beauties.

The Hilary is perfectly balanced between dressy and casual. Wear these comfortably during your 9 to 5, and you won’t have to bother packing a spare pair of heels for that wine tasting afterwards. For a business casual look, pair the Hilary with a cute sun dress, a blazer, and a statement necklace. For play, simply stow the blazer, keep the statement necklace and put on a bold colored lipstick. The Hilary comes in several colors: green, brown, ice, black, and red. Get yours today at a super reasonable price of $119.95!

Miz Mooz Women’s Panthea Wedge Sandal

If you’re from a region that typically receives snowfall in winter, chances are your feet are wrapped in thick, warm socks and tucked into durable, waterproof footwear during this particularly freezing time of year. The poor things, they probably haven’t seen the light of day in months! With the official onset of spring just a few days ago, what better way to seize the season and show some feet than with the Miz Mooz Panthea Ankle Strap Sandal?

The Panthea is truly gorgeous. It features a chic ankle wrap with a buckle closure, and a 1.25 inch wedge with a bevel detail. With a heel height this modest, just imagine all the relaxed, care-free spring and summer fun you’re going to have in these barely-there sandals. We envision you pairing the Miz Mooz Panthea with faded cut-offs, or an airy, silk, maxi dress. Of course, you’re either chilling at a beautiful seaside resort, sipping a drink with a cute little umbrella; or, at a cocktail party, enjoying something refreshing.

Whatever you choose to pair the Panthea with this spring and summer, just remember to keep it cool, light, and fun!

Miz Mooz Petra

In addition to answering emails and phones, filling orders and managing our online inventory, a day at the InfinityShoes.com offices always includes hot coffee, a bagel run, and a round of compliments if one of our fabulous co-workers is looking particularly stylish. For the past few weeks, each day also includes adding new spring shoes and sandals to the website. We can’t lie to you, one of the best parts of this job is getting to see all of the new styles before they go online.

We are absolutely in love with all of the styles and brands  we got this spring.We do feel a bit guilty picking our favorites, but this season every single one of us loves the Miz Mooz Petra!

Seriously, how could you possibly resist a premium leather upper, smooth supple lining, and a cute and chunky buckle closure? We definitely can’t! The wooden sole with supportive platform and sturdy heel also ensures that every step you take is going to feel great.

Miz Mooz Dulce Women’s Mary Jane Flats

In an ideal world: women would open their—ironically—never-crammed closets to an unlimited supply of hand bags and shoes, there would never be bad hair days, and wearing 4-inch plus heels would literally feel like walking on clouds. Alas, a girl can only dream… And in the meantime, for the rest of us, inhabitants of the real world content in taking the good with the bad, there are flats: our cute, sensible, and always dependable little helpers to whom we turn to when we need to give our feet some much needed relief, and a temporary descent from towering heights.

Heels have their place in this world. In fact, here at Infinity Shoes, we’re pretty sure we couldn’t live without them. Put a woman in 4-inch plus heels, and bam, she instantly feels sexy, and ready to take on the world. Indeed, pumps are appropriate for certain work environments, special occasions such as job interviews, and fierce nights on the town with the girls (or the boy). Yet, contrary to what the fashion industry would like to have you believe, most women can only don them for a few hours before the desperate need to slip into something more comfortable takes over.

For those days, or moments, when the mere thought of a pair of heels causes your feet to recoil in dread; or, when you just need to be entirely comfortable, the Miz Mooz Dulce is the ultimate solution. Wear these cute mary janes on your commute to and from work, because let’s face it: aside from driving in stilettos, is there anything more impractical than staggering on a congested escalator in 5-inch heels before running to catch your train, or bus, during rush hour, all prior to having your skinny latte? We certainly don’t think so.

As the wheels of your means of transportation begin to turn, revel in the sweet comfort of your new flats. Although you might have packed a pair of heels to change into at work, chances are you will not want to take off the Dulce when you arrive at your destination. And who says you have to? Timelessly stylish, the Dulce is the perfect and pain-free complement to any business casual look. At the office, these mary jane inspired women’s flats look great paired with sleek trousers, or a pleated skirt. They’re available in several fun colors all appropriate for the current and upcoming seasons: yellow, blue, brown, green, and black. Grab yourself a pair and give your feet the relief they long for.

DIY Pedicure

Yikes, I put on some gorgeous sandals today and my feet are not as beautiful as they should be!  But hey, 4 months in boots, booties and pumps may contribute to a disregard for the always fashionable pedicure. If you’re anything like me, you may have had a little too much fun splurgin’ on wedges, and platforms, and pumps (oh my!) . Perhaps a much much needed mani-pedi isn’t in the budget at the moment? Not to worry! You don’t need to go to the salon to make your feet summer-worthy. Try these easy tips to make your feet nice and ready for sandal season.  Easy on your eyes AND your wallet!

1. Start with a clean canvas!

Make sure that all the old nail polish is off and that your nails are the color that they should be.  If your nails are discolored, rub them with lemon juice.  Lemons have an oxidizing effect and will brighten your nail bed.

2. Rub a Dub Dub!

Before you trim ‘em down, you gotta’ soften them up!  So soak those tootsies in warm water with a half cup of Epsom salt.  This will soften your cuticles, skin, and the nails.  Want an instant foot massage?  Put marbles in the bottom of the container that you’re using.  Ahhh!

3. Scub ‘em and love ‘em!

One of the most important parts of the pedicure procedure is making sure your skin is soft. So a DIY foot scrub is a must (especially if you’re on your feet a lot). Don’t think you have to splurge on this one either. You can make a great scrub from stuff you have lying around the kitchen. Take brown sugar, sea salt, olive oil  and mix them together. There’s no exact formula—just mix until you have a texture that you like. Be sure that you are using more brown sugar than salt.  The scrub feels amazing and will leave your skin extra soft.

4. File for Style!

Trim your toe nails to the length that you want them with a toe nail clipper. Be careful not to go too short! When you file them, be sure to file in one direction.  If you go back and forth, you can cause splitting. Get an orange stick (a.k.a. cuticle pusher) and gently push back the cuticle. You can also use the orange stick to  get dirt and debris from underneath the nail.

5.  Color Courageous!

Once your nails are bare and your skin is nice and soft, you get to the easy part—choosing a color.  Remember, it’s summer time baby, so don’t be shy.  Get inspired by the season!  Think candy and flowers; go bright and bold!  You don’t have to feel beholden to one solid color either.  Try leopard print or a cherry on your big toe.  You will be amazed at the designs you can do if you have some patience and a toothpick.  Just pick one lucky piggy and paint her a different color from the rest.  See if anyone notices.

6. Decorate Accordingly!

Ok, now that your feet are all set, it would be a travesty to put an unworthy pair of shoes on those tremendous toes. Make sure you get sandals that deserve pampered feet like yours—treat your feet right and enjoy the Miz Mooz Spring 2012 line.  With comfy pumpssky-high platforms, supple leather, and rich colors, Miz Mooz is the easiest way to look hot and feel cool.
