Shoe du jour

Taking to the Bronx. The shoe brand, not the borough. “Fringe Away”,  a rough, tough, outspoken, fun, rock and roll inspired sandal has unexpected coverage and style – just like the borough. Smooth, soft black leather has thick wrap around ankle straps to create a chunky knot or artsy inspired bow. There’s gathered leather by the open toe and the 4″ spiked stiletto heel is easy to maneuver with 1″ platform. A shoe should match your mood. You have the same feet, why not try some different shoes!

Shoe du jour

Back in 2010, the trend in women’s shoes was all about the platform. That trend has become a fashion mainstay since platforms are a woman’s bff, enabling effortless comfort. I think one of the most comfortable platforms from 2010 is the “Daquelo” from Chie Mihara. It’s a simple styled design – a Mary Jane heel with an open toe and sling-back strap, yet it’s beautifully crafted. Rich mushroom colored suede leather graces the upper, while the strap, platform and heel are wrapped in solid leather, giving a subtle tone-on-tone mix.  The 1.5″ platform makes the 4.5″ heel a humble 3″ high, so they are easy to walk in, you’ll swear you’re wearing flats! Extremely versatile in hue and style – they go with everything from jeans, to maxi-dresses or formal attire. If you’ve ever owned a pair of Chie Mihara’s, you’d agree, these are a steadfast addition to the shoe closet.
