Cobalt blue Shoes for Fall 2014

It's as if the moment the leaves start turning yellow, Torontonians cease to wear color. And what a shame that is, because bright bursts of colors are exactly what we need to perk ourselves up in the midst of the cooling temperatures. Why not copy the weather & at least wear some cool hues on your feet, such as cobalt blue shoes?! Toronto especially is a great city to adopt a Fall color philosophy. Why? Because you'll likely stand apart from the crowd, you know, if you're into that!

Vintage Astrology Loafers for Fall

Vintage Flats - Sergio Rossi Loafers

Fashion loafers (vs. the traditional “penny” variety) are once again a trendy shoe item for Fall and I've been lucking out for the past few seasons with these black vintage Sergio Rossi slippers. Yes, they are astrology-themed & although I'm a Sagittarius myself, the gold graphic is based on the Leo sign. Makes me wonder if they created them for each astrological sign, or if Leo (“Leone” in Italian) is based on Sergio Rossi's birth date?

Wearing White After Labor Day

It would seem that supposed rules of wearing white shoes after labour day (or rather not wearing white after labor day!) have become obsolete, with countless magazine editorials, fashion bloggers & street style fashionistas wearing either partial white outfits or going full throttle with head-to-toe post-summer white on white looks. But then again, is this really surprising? With the weather having changed so much over the past couple of years, I say the hell with the no white after labor day blabber & wear what you will! Especially those white shoes you love!

 Comfortable Nude Shoes Street Style

Nude shoes are the perfect blend-into-any-outfit type of shoe, but when you want to make them pop or dressier, nothing works quite as well as a little jewelry. Shoe jewelry, that is! I'm a big fan of my Shoelery by E.G. “Regal” faux-diamond shoe accessories & I've styled them a multitude of times with my Nine West black pumps here and here. I'd never thought of adding them onto a peep-toe until I was playing around with my nude Sofia Z sandals, some shoe clips & voila'!

Plastic High Heel Shoes to Put a Seal on!

by

Vivienne Westwood for Melissa Wax Seal ShoesToronto Street Style - Vivienne Westwood for Melissa ShoesOften even pretty shoes get forgotten at the back of shoe closets, which has been the case with my Vivienne Westwood for Melissa footwear high heels. They're sleek, quirky (that's an old school red wax seal right above the toes!) & comfortable, so I wonder why the heck I don't bring them out as much as I should. Maybe I have too many shoes, who knows?!

Street Style – Chambray Dress, White Cap-Toe Heels

by

 White Heels Embellished Purse

These white cap-toe “Lovisa” heels by Alexander Wang just go to show how sleek designed pair of shoes can make any outfit look crisp & clean. I bought this bandana dress from Gap as an easy throw-on piece in which to run errands or take my kid to the park. Paisley print & multifaceted chambray texture are perfect for masking stains, spills & the like. I'm messy & clumsy, so this tends to be an important element in my wardrobe choices (ever wonder why I wear so many prints & prints-on-prints!?).
