ALEXANDER MCQUEEN GREEN BOOTIES WITH LACES

March 23rd // 1 Comment

After I saw these Alexander McQueen bottle green booties with laces at London Fashion Week on Lady Gaga last September, I had to scoop myself up a pair. I generally reach for black boots with studs or spikes but these women’s booties were an understated way to incorporate a little bit of leather and laces into my wardrobe (and I love that pointed toe!).

While the Alexander McQueen bottle green booties with laces are from their pre-fall collection, this stunning shade of green is 2013′s trendiest color so I can’t wait to keep wearing these through the end of the year.

KANYE WEST BY GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI CRUEL SUMMER SANDALS

March 16th // 2 Comments

Look what came in the mail! I ordered the new Kanye West by Giuseppe Zanotti Cruel Summer sandals from net-a-porter.com and they just arrived a few days ago. A Grecian-inspired, architectural wedge with gold leaves, the collaborative design was inspired by the rapper’s new album cover.

Giuseppe Zanotti’s patent-leather sandals are undoubtedly the shoes of the season. The architectural suede wedge heel nods to the designer’s fashion-meets-physics aesthetic. Keep the gold metal wings in full focus by wearing yours with all black.

So sick! They originally released in an-all white design but the black and gold is much more my style so I had to scoop them up.

What do you think? Are you loving this pair of heels from the West/Zanotti partnership?

Giuseppe Zanotti Chain Detail Peep Toe Pump

February 23rd // Comment Here

I must admit, I am one of those women who rarely wears a plain black shoe. Unless it’s a YSL platform, most of my black basics have some sort of embellishment on them, whether they are booties, pumps or in this case, peep toes.

Life is short so why waste it wearing shoes that aren’t beautiful? That’s what I tell myself These classic black Giuseppe Zanotti Chain Detail Peep Toe Pumps were a perfect addition to my wardrobe because the chain detail is subtle enough that it doesn’t overpower my look but still adds a little extra something. So happy that I snagged a pair before they sold out on Bluefly.com (on sale for $351.00!).

Just like your favorite necklace frames your face, lustrous metal highlights the military-style design of this pump. Whipstitched metal chains gleam along collar. Peep toe reveals leather-covered platform.

Christian Louboutin Extreme Highness Platform Red Sole Pump

February 16th // 3 Comments

I’m back with this week’s shoe feature – there is no way I couldn’t share a more up close look at these Louboutins. I almost wore them on the last day of Market America World Conference but went with a different pair, sans spikes.

The Christian Louboutin “Extreme Highness” platform has a 2.5″ hidden platform and 6″ heel, which adds some serious high to my shorty frame. But more than that, they are a collector’s dream and exclusively sold as a part of Bergdorf’s 111th anniversary collection.

Exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman. Aptly named the “Extreme,” this Christian Louboutin pump is the show-stopping statement piece you’ve been searching for. Give into your gilt-y pleasures with its golden spikes and jewelry-like sparkle.

Aren’t they stunning? Princess shoes!

Ruthie Davis Odyssey Peep Toe Pump

January 12th // 1 Comment

Every woman needs a black pair of heels but there’s nothing wrong with a little bit of embellishment every now and then I became a fan of Ruthie Davis a few years ago and the Ruthie Davis Odyssey Peep Toe Pump is really what sold me; the blinged out chain across the toe and sick stiletto detail was fresh and something I hadn’t really seen a shoe before. It’s still one of my favorites – and it’s this week’s shoe feature!
