Roberto Cavalli can sometimes end up as the butt of fashion jokes because of his bold, bright, print-heavy European aesthetic, but I find myself very often enjoying a number of his pieces. There’s something to be said for a strong personality in design, and even if that personality isn’t always mine, I always appreciate it. When Cavalli does things like [...]
Charlotte Olympia is known for her cool, slightly avant-garde designs, but that doesn’t mean that she can’t go pretty just as quickly as the rest of them. If you had any doubts, the Charlotte Olympia Paloma Platforms should go a long way toward shoring them up. I think it would probably be difficult to design a purple-pink satin pump with [...]
Well, I really can’t start writing about the man until I honor him first: R.I.P. Alexander McQueen. Why does the good always die young? But luckily for the fashion world, his creativity and designs will live forever – AND SELL OUT QUICKLY! His Neon Flash Shoe Boots are no flash-in-the-pan! This will be a shoe/boot that will definitely stand the [...]
Under John Gallianio, the Dior label has never been a slavish follower of trends. Season after season, the collections the brand’s New Look glory days and sophisticated, discerning female clientele are referenced and appeased in some way or another, no matter what might be happening in fashion at large. In many ways, it’s admirable that Galliano keeps the true spirit [...]
Ever since I saw the Yves Saint Laurent Palais Platforms, I’ve been in love. The bold blue suede and curvy heels and platform turn a regular pumps into something special, but unfortunately, they do it to the tune of over $700. Luckily for us, the Dolce Vita Paige Platform Pumps uses a similar shape in a slightly more traditional color [...]
With the passage of Labor Day weekend, the summer wedding season is officially over, but that doesn’t mean we can stop eating rubber chicken and worrying about gifts until next May – for those of us in our mid-20s to mid-30s, those occasions don’t really ever end. It also doesn’t mean that brides are going to stop needing fabulous shoes [...]
One of the best things about this particular pair of booties is the height of the shaft. Many of fall’s “work” boots have an ankle aspect rise, which means that they come up to the part of the leg above the actual ankle joint, but still below the calf. Those booties can look awkward with dresses or tights, but this [...]
Not long ago, I made fun of a bag over at PurseBlog Savvy because it looked like the designer had skinned a horse in order to make it. Well, I’m about to eat my words, but since I’m doing so over a pair of delightfully unique booties, I’m ok with it. The Sigerson Morrison Calf Hair Booties are a little [...]
It’s not every day that I get to talk about a Jimmy Choo shoe being reasonable and affordable, particularly not one with “platform” in the name, but the Jimmy Choo Urban Platform Clogs are just that. For anyone that’s still sweating it out in above-90-degree weather like me, that’s good news indeed. It’s tempting to talk about all the new [...]
I don’t have a romantic bone in my body. Candle light dinners make me feel awkward, rose petals strewn about my bedroom seem totally cheesy, and I’ve never been as good at remembering special occasions or anniversaries as any boyfriend I’ve ever had. I don’t even like romantic comedies – give me a Quinten Tarantino movie any day. Every now [...]
