Longing For Lanvin

I'm a sucker for a gorgeous shoe box. I keep all my shoes in their boxes, free of dust and sticky fingers. I always have done and always will do, regardless of the space they seem to consume. These Lanvin embellished satin sandals are amazingly beautiful. Bows, mother-of-pearl, pailette and glass crystals couldn't go together any better. And the shoe box? Eeeeek! I would be very chuffed to have that sitting on the top of my ever increasing pile. The most perfect wedding day shoes don't you think? Available for £557 online at www.net-a-porter.com.

The Seasonal Change

Well Summer is fast drawing to a close (sad face) which means the cooler weather will soon be heading our way. On a good note this means shopping for a new wardrobe to keep you toasty once autumn arrives! I was in Myer last week and noticed they have now started the switch with cute pea coats, gorgeous dresses and some super cool shoes and boots. If you're after some seasonal inspiration then have a squizz at the video below. Autumn is upon us! Visit Myer's website at www.myer.com.au for store locations.

Rosette-A-Rama

There's no question these shoes have 'wear me' written all over them. Most Christian Louboutin's do, however these sassy little numbers, complete with white rosette and floral lace panels (£885), cause the heart to race and the mind to wonder. Something tells me they're far too pretty to be stuck under a long wedding gown. If these are your choice then short it is. Let your twinkle toes shine! Available online at www.net-a-porter.com.

Shoe In

I've spent the last couple of days in Sydney meeting with some of our fabulous suppliers and hunting for the newest and most gorgeous bits and pieces. I made a stop at Joanne Panzarino's simply gorgeous salon in Balmain and was blown away. Her salon is simply gorgeous. Soft colours, beveled edge mirrors, cabinets, tables and of course racks of breathtaking gowns. Joanne is most certainly a lady with fabulous taste! One thing I did notice during my visit was her lovely collection of shoes. Stylish white/ivory shoes are sometimes hard to come by so if these are on your list do yourself and favour and make a stop at her salon located at 1 Birchgrove Road, Balmain. Visit www.joannepanzarino.com to make an appointment!

Shoe Review

Shoes are a pretty important part of your wedding day. Unlike your dress, which you will cherish forever even though you'll only wear it once, your shoes are a part of your ensemble that you can wear again (depending on your choice of course!). High street shoe label Nine West have some great heels from their spring 2010 collection which would make fab wedding day shoes that you will want to wear again. If ivory isn't your ideal 'I do' shoe then opt for silver. Everyone needs a pair of silver heels in their wardrobe! Visit www.ninewest.com.au to view their collections online and to find a store near you.

Happy Friday all! x


Vella in ivory $229. Also available in silver


Loveland2 in silver $159


Runaway in silver $229

Suave & Silky

These Pedro Garcia Swarovski crystal embellished Elisha pumps are just soooo pretty. With a heel of 4.5 inches they're the perfect height if you're not into kitten heels but don't want to be a towering giant. The grosgrain ribbon frill around the edge is the perfect detail and in ivory satin, opposed to white, they're sleek and shiny. Available to purchase online at www.net-a-porter.com or visit www.pedrogarcia.com to view the available collections.

Snake Charmer

Not only does the great Oscar de la Renta make simply stunning gowns he also has a habit of creating drool worthy shoes. These little snake skin numbers would be welcome in my shoe cupboard any day. Although grey, they look strikingly silver with their sparkly embellishment. A great shoe if silver or grey is in your wedding palette and an even greater shoe for after the wedding. Who says you won't wear your wedding shoes again? Helen Rodrigues, in Sydney's Neutral Bay, sells a selection of de la Renta's wedding shoes. Visit her online at www.helenrodrigues.com.au or visit www.oscardelarenta.com for collection details.

Big Shoes to Fill

For those who have large feet I can imagine it's a rather challenging task trying to find shoes that actually fit. Since 2007 Lauren Whiting, owner of Adelaide's At Last Shoes, has been importing Italian shoes made specifically for larger feet. Boots, flats and heels are all on the menu, ranging in sizes from 41-46 (roughly 10-14.5). Lauren's also recently created Bless My Soul, a label of killer heels and classic flats catering for sizes 10-13. These ranges all include bridal shoes and can be purchased online. Ladies, let out sigh of relief!!! Visit www.atlastshoes.com.au and snap to it!

A Silky Dream

To me these Pedro Garcia delights look like a pretty cute wedding shoe. Nice size heel, platform to save the balls of your feet, silky white satin all with a cute frayed edge.

Shopping online has never been easier so take this as the perfect chance to give it a crack if you haven't yet dared. You won't be disappointed! Visit www.net-a-porter.com to view the huge range of brands available all with a click of your mouse.

Fab Flats

Elizabeth Syer, our girl in the know in London, sent me an email this morning alerting me to these fab flats that are taking the UK scene by storm - Coco Rose. A great idea for brides wanting a bit of relief from mile-high heels towards the end of the reception. Specially designed with a split sole, they can be easily folded and tucked into the smallest of bags. They would make a gift idea for all the girls in the wedding party.



They come in a variety of colours, including white, for £35 + shipping to anywhere in the world.
