Shopbop.com and Frye Shoes... Who wants them?

Hello, darlings! First things first! The winner of CC’s Orient Watch Giveaway is the lovely Fangirl Jen ~ congrats!
Now, on to the next exciting bit of fashion news: CC is so excited to tell you about today's special offer!

Frye shoes? What's the fuss? The Frye company is a big deal! They are the oldest shoe company in the United States, designing and producing sought-after boots since 1863.

Way, way back in the day (Civil War times), Frye shoes were a must for Union and Confederate soldiers. They were also a go-to for soldiers during the Spanish-American War through WWII. Even former President Teddy Roosevelt wore Frye shoes!

Today, Frye shoes aren't too popular amongst soldiers, but celebrities all over Tinsel Town love to show off their Fryes. Which ones? Angelina Jolie, Cameron Diaz, Lindsay Lohan and Jennifer Aniston, just to name a few. In the past few decades, the Frye team created a devoted following for its quality of shoe and versatility in style. Those are two extremely important characteristics in a designer, if not the most important!

With so many different styles, Frye shoes satisfy needs for everybody. There are nine styles that range from Campus, to Western to Work. There are tall, short, and casual styles. Some boots are colorful and cowboy-inspired while others are black and chic with silver embellishments. Something for every occasion!
