A classic black peep toe pump that you can wear with virtually anything is a must for anyone’s shoe collection, but how great is it to find this wardrobe staple item for a cheap price?  Plus, it’s leather, brand name and looks great, so you really can’t go wrong.  That’s what you get with the Nine West Jai, which is offered at 6pm in solid black for just $23.60 (MSRP $59) during their current Nine West sale.  There are still plenty of sizes left right now, but I’m sure that won’t last long at this low price.  Shipping adds $6.95 and the sale ends on 5/2/10, at which point the price may go up.

Need more cute cheap shoes?  6pm is also having a CL by Chinese Laundry sale that marks down a selection of flats to $12.95 each until 4/30/10.

Lord & Taylor is having a Friends & Family sale that takes 25% off most items sitewide, including their selection of women’s shoes, when you apply coupon code FRIENDS at checkout.  There’s no shortage of cute shoes to pick from, especially since the discount applies to both regularly-priced and sale shoes, but a few brand exclusions apply.  One of my favorites is a quite a splurge, but it’s gorgeous and so spring-ready, so I can’t help but love it.  It’s the Nanette Lepore Secret Love (pictured above) and it’s $355, but it drops to $266.25 after code.  Here are a few more of my picks from this sale:

B. Makowsky Anne in black or gold for $139 before code and $104.25 after (limited sizes).

Michael Michael Kors Juniper in brown or black for $150 before code and $112.50 after.

Nina Calinda braided wedge in gold or silver for $79 before coupon and $59.25 after.

Betsey Johnson Calandra in black or black/white for $150 before coupon and $112.50 after.

Born Cornflower in yellow, black or white for $95 before coupon and $71.25 after.

Nine West Consuela in pink or black for $89 before coupon and $66.75 after.

Sam Edelman Zoe in black for $350 before coupon and $262.50 after.

AK Anne Klein Marcella zipper flat in black for $59.99 before coupon and $44.99 after.

Shipping is free if you spend $150 or more.  The coupon expires 4/25/10.

I’ve been seeing plenty of really good shoe sales going on, so I had to round them up for those of you who may be shoe shopping this weekend.  If you’re craving a hot new pair of shoes, but need them to be light on the wallet too, check these stores out: 

$5

$5

I have to start with Sears because they have some unbelievably low prices on their shoes right now.  Sears may not be first place we think of when buying shoes, but they do offer some well-known brands and - wow - these prices are insane.  They are taking an extra 50% off women’s clearance boots and when you look at the shoes, you’d think many of them are already marked down, but you actually get the extra discount at checkout.  Boots aren’t typically on the brain this time of year, but when they start at $2.50 after discount you can’t go wrong.  For example, the MIA Amore McBeavy moto boot (pictured above, at left) or the Laundry List Trishelle (pictured above, at right) are just $5 each.  Plus, there are plenty of other boots to choose from, many of which are under $25 before discount and $12.50 or less after.  Besides boots, Sears is also taking 30% off clearance shoes at checkout, including athletic shoes from brands like New Balance, Skechers and Adidas.  The sale ends 4/17/10.

American Eagle is once again taking an extra 30% off clearance items, including clearance shoes.  They don’t have free shipping this time around, at least not right now, but you can still get cute flats and sandals for very low prices.  I like the AE Leopard Sandal (pictured above left), which is a new arrival to the clearance section and is priced at $24.99 before discount and $17.47 after (originally $29.50).  We also had a commenter in my previous American Eagle sale post that said she was liking the AE Soft Ballet Flat in light blue (pictured above right).  It’s a great color and available for only $13.97 after discount (originally $29.50), although sizes are getting a bit limited.  The sale ends 4/20/10.

Nine West is having their Friends and Family Sale, which always means a sweet discount.  Get 30% off regularly-priced items by applying coupon code NWFRND4 at checkout and shipping is discounted to $5.  I’m loving the sandal featured on their homepage, the super-sexy Nine West Consuela for $89.  It’s available in 4 colors and you can get it for $62.30 after discount.  The sale ends 4/12/10.

Macy’s is having a Great Shoe Sale, which is a buy more, save more sale that takes 15% off 1 pair of shoes, 20% off 2 and 30% off 3.  Many sale items are also included, which is extra-nice since there isn’t a purchase minimum to get these discounts.  Gear up your spring and summer wardrobe with the shoes pictured above, (from left) the Chinese Laundry Block Party for $49, the Marc Fisher Sal for $89 and the Enzo Angiolini Fiama for $89.  You can get 15% off any one of these or 20% off any two, but the real savings come in when you buy all 3 for $158.90 rather than $227, which is $68 off (and kind of like getting a free pair).  Shipping is free on $75 or more with coupon code FIRSTSTEP until 4/17/10.  Sale expiration is unknown.

6pm has some weekend brand-specific super sales going on.  Get up to 65% off Steve Madden, up to 65% off HUGO Hugo Boss shoes, up to 65% off Cole Haan boots, up to 75% off Enzo Angiolini and more.  These sales end 4/11/10.

Shoe Woo, a new site that sells Jones Apparel brand shoes such as Nine West, Anne Klein, Enzo Angiolini and licensed brand Rachel Roy, takes 30% off any regularly-priced order at checkout during their first Friends and Family sale.  One of my faves, the Boutique 9 Val, is reduced from $199 to $139.30 with $5 shipping.  It’s expected to ship 5/11, but it also shows as being on backorder, so it’s possible there’s some additional delay.  The sale ends 4/12/10.

That’s all for now, but I’ll add more sales over the weekend if I see them.  Have a great one!

Cheap Chick hopes everyone had a fantastic Easter weekend because she sure did!  Easter is a particularly special time for this bargain-hunting chick because it’s the anniversary of when she broke out of her shell, literally.  And though she’s been a perpetual spring chicken ever since, it still holds a special place in her heart.  That’s why her mission to find cute spring shoes under $25 becomes even stronger around this time of year.  For this go around, she found plenty of brand name casual shoes that work well for all of those warm weather outdoor activities you may have up your sleeve, but there’s a few heels thrown in for good measure.  Here’s what Cheap Chick has for today:

80%20 Audrey ballet sneaker for $21 (MSRP $68) in silver or gold at 6pm.

CL by Laundry Actress for $24 (MSRP $39.99) in floral and several other prints, including Missoni-like patterns, at 6pm.

From Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s line, the Olsenboye Hailey ruffled flat for $16.99 (originally $50) in red, blue, silver or black at JCPenney.

Naturalizer Walford for $21 (MSRP $69) in black/white or black/red at 6pm.

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Ox Double Details for $22.05 (MSRP $40) in rasberry and 2 other colors at 6pm.  There’s also the high-top Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Seasonal Hi for $20.53 (MSRP $44) in pink and a variety of other color options.

Etnies Coco W for $20.63 (MSRP $55) at 6pm.

Skechers Endorphin Sugar Rush for $24.44 (MSRP $59.95) in pink/silver or white/blue at 6pm.

Madden Girl Funnel frayed fabric flat for $23.99 (originally $39.99) in natural or pink at Shoesteal.  Apply coupon code STEAL20 for an additional 20% off, making them $19.19, until 4/18/10.

MIA Kyra for $23.58 (MSRP $62) in black, brown or white at 6pm.

Fitzwell Aysha t-strap wedge sandal for $19.88 (MSRP $65) in pewter, navy, brown, bone and black at 6pm.

Nine West Rocha for $23.70 (MSRP $79) in pink or blue at 6pm.

Franco Sarto Amenity for $23.39 (MSRP $99) in sand or black at 6pm.

Rocket Dog Ice Tea multicolored sneaker for $24.50 (MSRP $49) at 6pm.  It also comes in 3 other color options.

Please note that prices and availability are subject to change at any time.

The Christian Louboutin Coussin is definitely a hot cage ankle bootie that can be worn with a variety of looks - skirts, dresses, boyfriend jeans, leggings, you name it - for instant sex appeal.  The Coussin in black has been out for a few months, but now we also have a spring-ready beige version available for preorder at Saks.  Of course, you’ll have to shell out $1,595 to rock this style and, I don’t know about you, but my spring shoe budget isn’t quite there yet.

But, there’s a similar option that is equally hot and available for a much lower price.  Actually, if I’m being honest, I like this style even better!  The Boutique 9 Val is a gorgeous woven caged bootie with extra details - like the bow adornment at the ankle, open toe and side cutouts - that make it even more lust-worthy in my book.  You can get these in beige or black at Nine West on preorder for $199.  Shipping is also free for a limited time.  The only downside?  They don’t ship until 5/11/10.  That seems like forever when you’re waiting on a pair of shoes like this one!

Here’s to finding some great shoe shopping bargains this weekend!

With St. Patrick’s Day coming up on March 17, I’ve definitely had green shoes on my mind.  While some people don’t necessarily do anything to celebrate the holiday, I think it’s fun to get in the spirit by wearing something green (plus, you’ll avoid a good pinch by St. Patty’s Day revelers on the prowl for anyone not donning the hue).  There are lots of ways to incorporate green into your wardrobe for the Irish holiday, but let’s face it - it’s a great excuse to wear some fabulous green shoes.  Of course, as an added benefit, you can get plenty of wear from a freshly-picked green pair during spring as well.  Here are some of my favorite green shoes that are sure to bring plenty of luck:

So. cute.  The Harajuku Lovers Avallon for $99.95 with free 2-day shipping at Endless.

Fergie Empower in spinach for $99 at Shoes.com with free shipping.  Apply coupon code MSAVE for 20% off, making them $79.20.  They also come in a lighter shade of green called wheatgrass.

Carlos Santana Glamorous for $55.20 (MSRP $110) at 6pm.

Get a little funky with the Naughty Monkey Knot Sure in green.  The best price is at Amazon for $20-$28 depending on selection, but few sizes are left.  Zappos has them in plenty of sizes for $68.95.

Get even funkier with the Irregular Choice Shimmmy, which will obviously stand out in a major way.  Get these for $120.95 with free 2-day shipping at Endless.

Go for simple and sweet with the Miss Me Monet-5 ankle boot for $39.95 with free shipping from Amazon.

Nine West Beaulah for $83.97 (MSRP $119.95) at 6pm.

The elegant Calvin Klein Daliah for $71 (MSRP $118) at 6pm.

This one strikes me as having a true St. Patty’s Day vibe.  The Carlos Santana Rome for $89 with free shipping at Shoes.com.  Coupon code MSAVE takes them down to $71.20.

Spring-ready: The SM Ven Rosette Wedge in green for $39.95 at DSW.  Take $10 off orders $10 or more with coupon code MARCH10 at checkout (must sign in to use codes), making them $29.95.

Michael Antonio Hagen for $64.95 with free overnight shipping at Endless.

Seychelles Yin for $46 (MSRP $80) at 6pm.

Now, here’s a few of Cheap Chick’s picks for green shoes under $25.  These are all from 6pm:

Steven by Steve Madden Tummble for $22.35 (MSRP $149).

Converse Chuck Taylor Seasonal Hi in green for $23.29 (MSRP $45).

Zigi NY Gemma for $17.98 (MSRP $44.95).

Schutz 31601002 for $17.40 (MSRP $116).

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to everyone and may the luck o’ the cute green shoes be with you.
