Laboring To Find You Cheap Shoes Today!

I've been cooped up in the house for much of this weekend, working and watching Mad Men. And when I haven't been engaging in the latter, I've been scoping out the shittons of sale emails I've been receiving. Lots of cute fall shoes on sale this Labor Day, or so my inbox thinks. Observe:

($15.50, Miss Me, Lulus)
Promo code "LABOR DAY" gets you 15% off the already ridiculously low price.


($19.99, Payless)
These aren't really me, but I love the heels and stitching.


($19, Delicious, Cutesygirl.com)
15% off with promo code "FRESH15."


($9.99, Cutesygirl.com)
Also 15% off with promo code "FRESH15." I'd totes wear these fall Oxfords, but they don't gots my size. Boo.


($34, Newportnews.com)
20% off these really cute holiday shoes with promo code "514." I bought 'em. Tee!



... And/or these!


($24.99, Modcloth.com)
Also bought these. Whoopsers! Check out promo codes here.

If you need something a little more high-end.

Happy Labor Day, y'all.


Men Represent: Style Icons Update


Firstly apologies again for Week 2 of Men Represent which passed me by...the last two weeks have flown by and left me tired and a little confused...but it was all worth it. For those of you who don't know I moved flats and aside from carrying boxes, driving in vans and visiting Ikea I didn't have access to the alternate, all consuming world of the Internet. Excuses, excuses I hear you say, well, you might have something there. My point is that our thirst for your style icons has yet to be quenched, despite some stella work from The Journal of Style and The Sunday Best, we still want more, If you've posted about your style icons and I've missed you out please let us know.


Here are the blogs and the icons who have taken part:


The Sunday Best gave us Brian Eno and David Byrne whilst letting us know about their new collaboration. "And for letting his hair grey wonderfully, and cycling everywhere, and drawing trees, and wearing scarves and fedoras, David Byrne is a definite style icon."


The Journal of Style (a regular read of mine - a men's style blog written by Jonas, inspired by music and design) has been the busiest and most productive at the style icons task.


Marcello Mastroianni - "The Italian actor showed us that dressing in a very simple style was never boring as long as the fit and execution is right."


Albert Einstein - "Easily put he wasn't the most sartorial scientist in the world and his clothes didn't fit like a glove but he always was the most stylish scientist, he was what I would like to call - an individualist."


Please send us the links of any style icons post...let's focus on week 2 of Men Represent.
