Summer on My Mind: Bally Roxine and Other Retro Shoes

by Erika

Yes, we know, it’s the dead of winter and summer is the farthest thing from happening right now. But how else are we supposed to fight off the winter blues except by injecting some bright color into our daily lives?

Longing for open-toe season isn’t going to do much, so here’s one way to stave off that hunger for the meantime: looking at bright, colorful retro shoes. And no, it’s not a waste of time because shopping for discounted off-season clothes is always a great way to pre-stock your closet AND save some money.

Like for instance, the designer shoes on this page are all on sale at 50% off and more

Time to get into a summer state of mind!

Bally Roxine Wedges, $231.00 down from $454.00

The soft brown suede, the floral embroidery, and the buckled straps all atop a cork wedge – how much more summery can you get? Now all we need is a flowy summer dress…

Michael Kors Citrine Platforms, $237.50 down from $529.00

The platform on these shoes have a similar shape to the Pleaser USA shoes we previously featured, but anything with braided straps always automatically belong to the sunnier months for us no matter how they look.

A. Testoni F521232 Wedges, $262.36 down from $629.00

The product description says that the design on the wedge heel is an “equestrian print” – kind of like the prints on ever-famous Hermes silk scarves. Winter scarves are great for keeping warm and all, but keeping cool in silk scarves is something we’d take over heavy fleece and wool any day.

Jean Paul Gaultier GA16039E0P G16 Wedges, $399.00 down from $839.00

Here’s the most colorful of them all: the Gaultier wedges. It’s bright violet with neon yellow, a touch of khaki and a splash of black. We hear color combos like these are going to be big for summer.

All of these retro shoes are available on Zappos.com.
