Twice the Toes - Digit Darkes and Truth

I think Anessa was right! It's been a shoe explosion the past few days! So I'm fast tracking a bit and double posting some of the new stuff that's come across my attention. First (above) is the Desire Heel from Digit Darkes. On Your Toes had featured Digit's other "Toe Shoe" the Lotus Heels earlier in the week. Like the Lotus these are gorgeous shoes. Super high heal with leather and metal hardware, that is also color changing from brown & black leather and gold, silver, & bronze metal.  I really like the look of these prim toes, and the overall shape is yummy. I did have a bit more trouble matching my skin tone, and found that it was easier for me to match these shoes with my Belleza skin than my Redgrave. Like Anessa said in her first review, there is a notecard provided that gives suggestions with tones, and there also is a sock pack included that helps as well. The shading around the sides is darker than the rest of the foot, which could change depending on your lighting and viewer. This shoe also utilizes invisaprims on the legs to hide those ghastly natural SL feet, so you won't be able to use your cuffs with these shoes that use the same attach point.

On a side note, while reading plurks the other day, Alaska M. had a really great idea. She asked whether shoe creators who make shoes with sculpted feet were making copies of them without the feet as well. I love that idea, just because even though I personally love the cute little piggies, I know there are others out there who aren't in favor of them, I'd hate to see those people not get a chance to wear some of these great looking shoes! Just an idea. :)

So my other treasure is the Sophia Boots from Truth (along with some really cute Truth hair too). The detail on the buckle of these ankle boots are fabulous, these are just the type of boots that boot lovers need for the upcoming warmer months! I think they'd look great with capris, shorts, skirts, and whatever suits your fancy! Available in several colors, these are worth a look!

A Little Bit Kookie


And here they are, something kinda special from Kookie Lemon, and yeah more toes. Lovers of the Kookie brand will be very familiar with the more animated look to the shoes, they have a very unique quality to them that I have yet to see duplicated. Unique textures and shape, and now some very unique Chic Heels, complete with painted piggies and leg wrapping leather. They have a unique color match system for customizing skin tone, and a hud for selecting nail color - this method worked very well. And so, from the fabulous chunky wood sole and softly textured leather with Bow or without, to the metal accents and criss cross of straps, the Chic Heels are a fun shoe to be sure.

Visit Kookie to get your fix.

Some Bargain finds...



So my friend Zach comes through for me again and sends me these cuties that he found when walking the street...you know, XStreet. The coolest part is that the HOC sneaker wedges found above are 30L's and the Cheeky Shoes were 25L! Now while both shoes have a great price, there are some differences, which makes it tricky to lump in one post. 

Lets start with the Sneaker Wedges by Guu Nishi of HOC. First off, they are a tenni-wedge, and as the notecard that comes with them states, they are made completely by Guu Nishi, who believes that, "free or low price items should not be of low quality, our items have taken many hours (or days!) to create." 

Now as far as the Cheeky shoes go, these are prim toed stilettos, they also are color changing, not only the skin or the toe polish, but the shoe themselves. They have a unique system for matching colors that I haven't quite seen before. Unlike the Sneaker Wedges, these shoes are created by purchased sculpties and textures.  

Kellyo Mayo, the creator of the Cheekys states in the enclosed notecard, "I freely admit I did not create the sculptie or textures for these shoes I bought them.  I modified a few textures and added the scripts for the color changing balls.  These are a decent pair of starter shoes with feet in them.  There are far far better shoes with sculptie feet in them..." 

So there you go, available on XStreet for a bargin price if you are in the market. I personally am now in love with the Sneaker Wedges and think that for the price the Cheekys are quite nice.
