My name is Nerea and I am the creator and editor of the fashion and style blog, Corazón de Maniquí. I am currently living in Madrid but am originally from Ibiza. The key to my personal style success is high heels. I fell in love with Sam Edelman heels when I received a pair of black Lorissas for my birthday. With its studs and sparkle, the Lorissa is one of the most incredible and gorgeous shoes I’ve owned!
I love wearing heels of different shapes and colors. The Novato in aqua, and the Lorissa in truffle are two of my favorites. I feel so elegant and poised when I wear them! The Novato adds a touch of bright color and complements my turquoise blouse, skinny jeans, and blazer. The Lorissa in nude is neutral but with an edge, and looks great with different textures such as my faux fur coat and distressed boyfriend jeans. All three of these heels can transform any outfit and provide the perfect dose of confidence.
Nerea is a student who lives in Madrid and founded the fashion and personal style blog, Corazón de Maniquí. She developed her blog as a way to express her opinions on the latest trends and suggest outfits to her readers for both casual and special occasions.

Now that the warm weather is upon us, it’s time for you to go back into your closet and break out those classic floral dresses, skirts, tops, and shoes that you’ve been missing. Whether you like a subtle pattern or prefer a vivid, bright design, floral-print is a trend that can easily be given your own personal touch of style.
Here are three different ways we like to pair floral prints with our Spring/Summer collection:
Poppy Red
The Odetta in red hot/saddle is a chic, heeled sandal that is perfect for showing off your pedicure. With a red flower pattern, double ankle strap, and gold heel accents, the Odetta is the perfect complement to a structured outfit of neutral colors and bold accessories.
Sunshine Yellow
You can’t have a bad day in the Felicia in sunshine yellow. These bright flats are printed with yellow flowers and polished with a small yellow bow. Wear them with denim, a flowy white top, and sunshine yellow accents for a simple bohemian look.
Accented Flats
Floral pants are a fun and fresh trend that will add some excitement to a blouse or tank. Pair them with the Betty, with its accent hardware, for the perfect casual office look with a fun twist.

Hi guys! I’m Jessica from Bows & Sequins. I am a 20-something shopaholic living in Chicago. Bows & Sequins is a personal style blog featuring yours truly. My personal style is put together and well accessorized, but pretty casual. I love mixing girly, glitzy pieces with casual basics (like denim or a button-front shirt) to create a unique look. Don’t get me wrong– I love getting glammed up and am obsessed with high fashion, but most of the time you can find me in a pair of jeans.
I tend to buy shoes that go with everything, such as the Rella in whiskey/au-natural and Gigi in saddle, because I know I will wear them over and over again.
Every so often, I love to purchase a “statement” pair of shoes, like the Warner 2 in ruby red and the Odetta in black/white/pink. These types of shoes are amazing heels that I base an entire outfit around. They are shoes that get noticed! I don’t necessarily wear them all the time, but I love having them in my wardrobe for an instant style pick-me-up.
Jessica Sturdy is the editor of Bows & Sequins, a personal style blog currently based in Chicago. While sparkle may be Jessica’s favorite color, her style is nothing but approachable.

On March 31st, Sam Edelman visited Belk at the Summit for a wonderful event supporting the Breast Cancer Research Foundation of Alabama. Fans, friends and shoe lovers in the Birmingham community all poured out in support of the event, which through the combined donations of Sam and Belk, raised over $10,000 for breast cancer research.
“As a male designer in the world of women’s footwear, I come in contact everyday with women whose lives are touched by breast cancer in one way or another,” Sam Edelman shared. “I’m so blessed that women love shoes. I’m so blessed to work with women every day of my life and I’m so blessed to be able to give back.”
At the event, Sam Edelman presented his Spring 2012 collection and spoke about his favorite spring trends: color-blocking and mixing materials. He also shared that rock and roll music inspires many of his embellished and spiked creations.

Now that the birds are chirping and the flowers are blooming, it’s time to shed some layers and kick your wardrobe into spring-mode. And what better way to transition your outfits from drab to dramatic then with a pair of colored jeans? Whether they are pastels, neons, or saturated darker hues, these denim essentials offer a wide variety of amazing spring outfit combinations for you to try.
Here are some of our favorite ways to pair colored denim with Sam Edelman shoes this Spring.
Ginger
The Ginger sandals in rose gold, pewter, and light gold will dazzle with your pastel-colored denim shorts and cropped jeans. These light, playful shoes are perfect for the beach or a casual day of shopping.
Javi
If you’re into color-blocking, the Javi in salmon is definitely the shoe for you. Keep it simple by wearing with jeans in the same color family, or mix it up with a pair of shocking blue or radiant yellow skinnies.
Jorgia
There’s nothing sexier than a combination of vivid color and animal print. The Jorgia in new nude leopard looks gorgeous paired with your favorite colored denim. If this look is too daring for you, tone it down by trying a pair of snakeskin flats like the Felicia.

The devil may be in the details, but so too are the subtle intricacies that make the Tacoma the sexy, spotlight-stealing pump that it is. Our designers considered every detail from the heel to the material to make sure this shoe is a star in your closet. Here’s a breakdown:
1. The peeptoe is a fun way to show off those glamorous pedicured toes and gives the Tacoma some extra flair to separate it from the pack of chunky-heeled platforms.
2. Who needs diamonds– everyone knows a platform is a girl’s best friend. Not only does it provide some extra height, but it also adds a dose of comfort so you can dance the night away!
3. The Tacoma’s chunky heel introduces some retro flair into your spring wardrobe. This stylish detail will let you keep your look on trend all season long, without sacrificing any of the classic style that a pump provides.
4. Snakeskin, patent leather, suede… oh my. The Tacoma’s different colors and materials give it chic and sexy versatility.
5. The ankle detail is a delicate embellishment that polishes and accentuates. It balances the design and introduces that subtle a hint of sexiness you’re looking for.
Now that you know all the devilish details, discover which color Tacoma you’re going to love.

The black maxi skirt is a timeless piece that has a place in every girl’s closet. Both flattering and chic, this wardrobe staple is defined by its versatility. In fact, with so many styling options it can be tough to create the perfect look for your taste. Check out three easy looks we created starring the black maxi skirt and some of our favorite shoes from our Spring 2012 collection:
Go boho by wearing the black maxi with the Petty boots and a chiffon blouse! This look is stylishly casual, with the leopard pattern on the Petty offering a fun pop. In the warmer weather, trade the long-sleeved blouse for a sleeveless one, and kick off your boots for a pair of Dante gladiator sandals.
Pair the maxi skirt with a white top, some metallic embellishments and the Frankie flat. This elegant yet understated style will let the metal studs on the Frankie shine and give your outfit a bit of sophisticated sparkle. A colorful pair of shoes is the perfect complement to the simplicity of black and white, so pick any of the Frankie flats’ bright and fun hues to complete the look.
You can’t go wrong with wearing the black maxi with a brightly-colored tee and the Gracie flip-flop. This balanced look is the perfect blend of color and neutral, with the straps on the Gracie balancing out the bright tones of the tee.
These looks aren’t the only ways to style your black maxi. Have an outfit with your own pair of Sam Edelman shoes you’d like to show off? Tweet at us or show us on Facebook!
