Pretty pretty metallic pumps for your office-to-holiday-party needs! If you think glitter, rhinestones or sequins are too much, a patent metal finish could be the way to go. Why not try on Aldo‘s “Northam” for size? Canadians & Brits can get their fill with a significantly reduced sale price!

Freak-Shoe Friday: Melted Brogue Alert!
Dec 9th
Acne’s brown “Spin” lace-up brogue wedge boot
A classic case of what I’m sure was a great idea in theory, gone terribly wrong. Or in this case, just having sagged away. I get, it, Acne, you wanted to spruce up the classic men’s brogue to be all 2011 & whatnot. But clearly, this was not the stylistically successful (or remotely commercial!) route to take.
All for the conversation-starter shoe, I’m not sure this particular shoe convo would go very well. I can almost hear “vomit-inducing” & “material overload” in the hypothetical discussion. Albeit, if you took off that ridiculous rounded heel & outsole, the result wouldn’t be so terrifying.
Acne should take a cue from another designer’s updated brogue, Pedro Garcia‘s “Channer“, which transforms the men’s style into a quirky & fun women’s creation, with a sumptuous form & sexy heel. The exaggerated design elements are still present, but with a visually appealing, sinuous result.
Pedro Garcia‘s “Channerf” lace-up shoe boot
Funny enough, both styles are available at MYwardrobe.com. I wonder which will sell faster, Acne’s atrocity for $821.70 US, or Pedro’s contemporary boot at $486.75? Hmmm…
Shoes for thought.

Celebrity Shoe Style – Emma Watson in Silver Choos
Dec 9th
Emma Watson can really do no wrong on the red carpet. Some young celebrity it girls can easily swing from worst to best & back to worst dressed, but Emma keeps it pretty steady on the best dressed list. While in Hong Kong this week, doing some promo for Lancôme, she was spotted in an exquisite Elie Saab Couture dress, which beautifully complement her 4.5 inch Jimmy Choo “Vamp” stilettos.
Available at Jimmy Choo’s online store for $750 US, if you’re itching to get your own pair. These heels are rather perfect for a holiday party (all, of course, depending on the weather outside your door!). Also available in a pewter glitter version if you need to sparkle that much more for New Year‘s!
