Spring is near and Payless is pulling out all stops with their designer collections from Christian Siriano, Lela Rose and Isabel Toledo. Whether your style is more glam or edged out, there’s something for every taste and the prices won’t break the bank. Siriano’s is ierce and glam. Rose’s is more ladylike and classic. Toledo’s is funky and fun.
Exotic strappy sandal: $29.99. Caged strappy shootie: $54.99. Mena dress boot: $59.99.
The Project Runway winner’s collection features strappy sandals, caged booties with platform heels and boots with goldtone details. I wish the line featured bolder colors but I love what I see so far. The heel on the boots are too fierce!
Perlita Bow Quarter Strap Sandal: $29.99. Tweed Lafayette Pleated Pump: $29.99. Olivos satin t-strap pump: $44.99.
This is definitely the more subdued, ladylike collection with all of the neutral tones and feminine details. The heels are perfect with an LBD or skinny jeans.
Mesh lace shootie: $54.99. Bow dress shoe: $29.99. Pointed kitten: $44.99.
Fun and funky sum up Toledo’s offerings for Payless. From a lace up mesh bootie to a metallic peep-toe to a striped kitten heel, you’ll definitely turn heads in these.
And luckily the BOGO {buy one, get on 1/2 off} sale is underway.
Are you guys excited for the spring offerings from Payless? Would you pay up to $50 or $60 for shoes from Payless?

One of the runway shows I fell head over stilettos for last week was that of Christian Siriano {check out his complete Spring 2011 collection here}. I would wear Every. Single. Piece in his line. Tons of neutrals, frocks of varying lengths (including one shoulder dresses) and the showstoppers were certainly the ruffled floor grazing numbers.
I live!
DKNY also featured tons of ruffled blouses, dresses and necklines.
Maybe you don’t want to go as dramatic as Siriano, but ruffles are a great way to add a feminine touch to your look.
Check out the pieces below (all under $50) if you want to add a bit of feminine flair to your look.
Christian Siriano debuted his spring collection last week during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week and all eyes weren’t just on his clothes, but the footwear as well. He gave audiences a sneak peek at his upcoming collection for Payless.
Platforms. Peep toes. Sculpted heels. Cut outs. I live!
I was a bit underwhelmed with his last Payless collection, but I’m hoping the shoes aren’t changed too drastically, if at all, for the mass retailer because these bad boys are F-I-E-R-C-E!
Do you guys like the collection as is or are they a bit ‘too much’ for Payless?
