Shoe Steal: Giuseppe Zanotti Cut-Out Sandals in Fiery Red

Charlesa — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 17:44:38 +0000

We have a lot of new and fabulous spring 2013 shoes to look forward to. Giuseppe Zanotti was among the shoe brands that had a wondrous offering of great heels for the next season. We love the boldness exhibited in the brand’s latest spring release. Their shoes are rich in style and just fabulous from heel to toe. Here’s one of their sexy sandals that caught our eye.

Giuseppe Zanotti Suede Cage Sandals, € 990.00

This cage sandal features butterfly-like cut-outs on its suede uppers. It comes available in several colorways but we just love this fiery red rendition. The steal from Shoe Dazzle has a very similar design, but with a higher platform and of course, a much cheaper price tag. Which of these would you love to add to your spring wardrobe?

Uma Thurman took a night off from her mommy duties so she can attend the Armani Prive Spring/Summer 2013 Haute Couture show. We rarely see her all glammed up these days so we were more than happy to see the hot momma dressed to impress again.

Uma opted for an all black ensemble, making her shoes the highlight of her whole wardrobe. We totally agree with her choice because her shoes are more than worthy of the spotlight!

Showing her love for the brand, Uma wore a Giorgio Armani t-strap sandal from the Spring 2013 Collection. The sexy heels are available in several colorways but we absolutely love the teal version. Which one do you like better?

Budget-Friendly Booties We Love

Charlesa — Wed, 23 Jan 2013 17:04:07 +0000

Ankle booties have become more than just a fall trend. This super stylish and comfy footwear has become a staple in women’s closets, often the go-to piece if you want an edgy outfit upgrade. If you tend to shy away from wearing tall boots, booties are a great alternative – they provide the same comfort and are even more fashion-forward, plus they are also a lot cheaper than traditional tall boots. To throw in a little more fierceness, go for the booties sporting multiple buckles and straps for a hint of a little gladiator look.

Here are some of our fave budget-friendly ankle booties:

Just Fabulous Shailene, $39.95

Just Fabulous Suzette in Grey, $39.95

Shoe Dazzle Kaydra, $58.95

Just Fabulous Mireille, $39.95

Remember, these booties are no longer considered as just a ‘fall trend’. They can work all year round, as long as you wear them with the right clothing. Ankle booties look best with skinny jeans, leggings and mini dresses. Check out this video for more style advice on how to wear these fabulous booties:

Anne Hathaway Pairs Couture Chanel with Vegan Aldo Shoes at the Golden Globes

Charlesa — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 15:08:23 +0000

The true mark of a real fashionista is being able to pull off even the most extraordinary styles.

That said, Anne Hathaway bravely made this statement at the red carpet of the 2013 Golden Globes. She was undoubtedly gorgeous in a couture Chanel white dress with tiny encrusted crystals. The stunning dress was both wedding aisle and red carpet worthy. She kept the accessories to a minimum, so as not to overshadow the dress and her flawless face.

The more interesting element of the whole look is her shoes under that dress. While most actresses walked the carpet wearing high-end luxury shoes, Anne opted for a pair of custom vegan Aldo shoes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with pairing high and low fashion but this practice is rare in red carpet moments. The custom vegan shoes were made only for Anne though, so don’t expect to see them in Aldo retail stores. We did, however, find you these great alternatives.

Aldo Gopie Sandal, clearance sale price $34.98 (from $80)

Aldo Imburgia Sandal, clearance sale price $19.99 (from $80)

Aldo Speegle Sandal, $60

Apart from ruling the red carpet, Anne also won a Golden Globe for ‘Best Supporting Actress’, following her awesome performance in the film adaptation of Les Miserables. Have you seen Les Mis yet? And what do you think of Anne’s high/low red carpet fashion?

Solange Knowles Pulls Off a Very Busy Print on the Red Carpet

Charlesa — Sat, 12 Jan 2013 13:46:49 +0000

While big sister Beyonce was busy conquering the music world, Solange Knowles has also recently stepped out of the shadows, slowly becoming noticed in the fashion world for her style. She has been deemed as ‘Fashion’s New It Girl’ and even Vogue included her in their ‘Best-Dressed’ list. Some of her most apparent style choices are bright colors and bold prints. She just loves mixing up bold patterns and prints, no matter how busy they are on the eyes.

This type of geometric pattern is daring and can be very hard to pull off. But leave it to the Queen of bold prints to execute the look perfectly. The Just Cavalli pantsuit is from the brand’s Pre-Fall 2013 collection. She paired it with a modern black and white sandal from Bottega Veneta to match the geometric shapes on her outfit and clutch. The monochromatic sandals are available at Yoox in two colorways.

Bottega Veneta High-Heeled Sandals in White, £264
