The Lucky Guide to SPRING SHOES!

Happy Thursday!

We're continuing our celebration of Spring's arrival... next thing on our list: SPRING SHOES!!!

While I absolutely love my boots, I've been waiting patiently to wear my sandals again. ;)
Here is Lucky magazine's guide to Spring shoes:

Photobucket

From towering rainbow platforms to sprightly little flats, every pair here has us daydreaming about those first warm days.

1. COLORFUL WEDGES - So playful, they're the feel-good shoes of the season.

Photobucket

2. LOW-HEELED SANDALS - Totally dressy, but you could still run for the bus in these.

Photobucket

3. CAP-TOE BALLET FLATS - The ingenue's unofficial shoe, now brighter -- and cuter -- than ever.

Photobucket

4. WOODEN WEDGES - A warm-weather staple, they're comfy, cute and wonderfully chunky.

Photobucket

5. TWO-STRAP HEELS - Overly flirty, but somehow completely daytime-appropriate.

Photobucket

6. FLAT ANKLE-STRAP SANDALS - Just like the ones you wore as a kid, only way chicer.

Photobucket

7. ANKLE-STRAP PLATFORMS - A comfortable shoe that gives you major height? We call that a win.

Photobucket

8. T-STRAP SANDALS - Their sexy design makes them your first choice for fancy nights out.

Photobucket

9. BOAT SHOES - The quintessentially preppy style cuts loose in fun Crayola colors.

Photobucket

I am good on the colorful wedges, but I need to get wooden ones. I also have a lot of ballet flats, but I don't have a pair of cap-toes. I want a pair of boat shoes as well. ;)

Do you have any of these Spring shoes? 
Which ones do you need/want to get?

    I am between ankle strap platforms and t strap sandals! I think both are fabulous. I need for Lent to end (I gave up shopping) so I can get on board with the spring trends!

    I'm currently in love with the low heeled sandals
    and the t-strap sandals :p I've always imagined myself
    having a hard time walking in the flatform/platforms ><
    I need new spring shoes! :p

    I bought a pair of boat shoes from Sperry last summer and have been shocked at how versatile they were...plan to use them to death this summer as well. Love those wedges, too! Actually I just love shoes in general, so what am I doing trying to pick just one kind? =)

    This is a great run-down of this season's shoes. I like that the cap-toe look has migrated from pumps to flats.
