Designer versus High Street in Women’s Large Size Shoes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The similarities between these Ghigo Platform Pump with Lace and Saura by Chie Mihara   vintage looking pumps were too much to ignore. The style of these shoes does look experimental.

Both of the shoes are two toned (grey and taupe), both rounded toe, both suede, both with shoe lace (with the same amount of straps no less) they’re almost a dead ringer for each other! Except the Ghigo ones comes with heel height measuring 3.5 inch with exposed platform heel costing 160 euros (comes in sizes 31 to 34 and 42 to 46).

The Chie Mihara’s version which is on sale at Simply Soles comes with heel height measuring 2.5 inch. Saura by Chie Mihara costs $325 and is available in US Size 5 to 12 including half sizes. Both styles would work with skirts, wide leg trousers and everything in between.

Product Review: Flexi Shoe Rack - Shoe Clutter Saviour

August 28, 2009 · Filed Under Shoe News and Accessories · Comment 

As a shoe lover I am always on the hunt for the latest or trendy shoes available, so you can only imagine the amount of clutter that I’m having to deal with when I’m trying to organise my shoes. In the past, I’ve bought different types of shoe organisers which didn’t live up to my expectations.

So you can imagine my delight when I recently received an email to do a product review on Flexi Shoe Rack. I jumped on the offer to try out this product.

What does the product promise? Read more

Classic Flats in Blue Leather and Light Brown Suede

Though I could do without the pointed toe, overall these are a stylish pair of flats and the combination of blue leather and light brown suede works very well. The white stitch detailing is what makes these ballet flats to standout. Being ballet flats, they’re obviously suited to workdays and casual weekends; and best of all, they’re now €48.00 down from €96.00 at Swanky Italy.

Platform Wedge Sandals in Light Brown Leather

I personally feel that the studs on these sandals are a bit too much, but of course that’s my opinion. But if you reckon it’s a case of “the more the merrier!” you may just love these.  They’re available from Ghigo, where they’ve been reduced from 95 euroto 47 euro which is very affordable and also they are definitely not boring, are they?

Very sad to inform you that you can only get them in Euro Size 42. Mere looking at the wedge heels, one can safely say that these sandals are on the funky side.

D’Orsay Stiletto with Bow and Peek-a-Boo Toe by Nina Shoes

Where evening footwear is concerned, even the most stylish and swankiest embellished flats cannot rival an elegant  pair of heels. And when it comes to heels you can surely trust Nina Shoes who is equally a veritable expert in sexy glamorous shoes like these classic d’Orsay style ‘Electra’ stiletto . The beautiful bow on the toe, makes them to look almost (but not quite) over the top. It’s then rounded off with some ruched detailing on the vamp and a peek a boo toe design just enough to show a bit of your well pedicured toe. So whether you’re a fan of purple or classic black, with over 11 colours to choose from, you’re sure to find these an excellent investment for your shoedrobe. They’re $92.95 from Nina Shoes.

Round Toe Pump in Patent Leather with Satin Ribbon Oversized Tie

 

Weely would be a beautiful addition to your office shoes wardrobe that’s if you are looking for a low heel pump.  But for me, there’s something about these shoes that appears old fashion. Featuring bronze piping detail with satin ribbon tie which would be the stand out style on these shoes - they would look gorgeous when paired with a simple shirt and pencil skirt which is then finished off with a nice trench-style jacket or coat this fall.

They are available on pre order at a retail price of $169 in US Size 36 to 46 from Kathryn Kerrigan.
