Shoe Cravings: Shoes in Every Hue October 9th, 2009 By

Spice up any outift with bold, colorful shoes

Spice up any outfit with bold, colorful shoes

Anyone that knows me can tell you I’m a huge fan of bold color.  Whether I’m shopping for scarves, cardigans, or curtains, I’m drawn to rich vibrant shades of orange, purple, green, yellow and red.  Maybe it’s because I get bored easily and need to shake things up, or maybe because I’m the youngest of five and sometimes need to grab attention: either way, I love to add splashes of bright color to any outfit.

My favorite colorful accessory is an eye-catching pair of shoes.  Don’t get me wrong, I keep plenty of basic blacks and browns in my repertoire, but I can’t live without at least one pair of luscious purple pumps or spicy orange flats to mix things up once in a while.  Why not live out the latest trend with a pair of sexy red suede ankle boots?

A pair of juicy orange flats can brighten any day

Living in Los Angeles, I miss out on leaves changing color every fall (which totally makes me homesick for the Midwest), but at least I can keep that color scheme alive with fabulous footwear.

Now and Later: Seeing Red This Fall September 19th, 2009 By

Leighton Meester at Teen Choice Awards '09

Leighton Meester at Teen Choice Awards in Brian Atwood Heels


People StyleWatch recommends red accessories as a trend to “Buy Now, Wear Now (And Later!)” in their August 2009 issue and they featured Vince Camuto’s Paloma peep-toe heels.  We love the way that a pair of bright red heels can brighten up any neutral outfit currently in your closet to make it fresh and current.  Look no further than Gossip Girl queen bee Leighton Meester for inspiration.  Her Brian Atwood red platform heels provided a great accent to the black & white ensemble she wore to the Teen Choice Awards.

Go Wild with Leopard Heels September 16th, 2009 By

Rachel Zoe, stylist to the Olsen twins and Hollywood starlets Keira Knightley and Anne Hathaway, chose to highlight a pair of leopard print “shooties” for her first Zoe Report.  These Brian Atwood heels hit many trends at once, but the leopard print is what really caught our eye.  You can find leopard print heels at any price level and different heel heights.  We like the BCBGeneration Tinas platform pump.  Wear them with a pair of dark distressed jeans for a night out.  No need to match your handbag to your shoes, these heels are hot enough to stand on their own.

Studded Flats: Street-Chic and Comfy Too September 8th, 2009 By

We love studded flats.  They can take an outfit from girlish innocence to street-savvy chic while keeping you totally comfortable.  Pour La Victoire and Steve Madden offer some gorgeous takes on this trend.  Play with textures when coordinating them with outfits.  Try sueded flats with more lady-like ensembles and black leather with jeans and denim skirts.

As a bonus, you can always pair them with a super short mini without looking overly sexy.
