Balmain Alight Booties: The Alight is More than Alright

A boot like this cements the bold return of the sharp stiletto. If you think about it, though, the Balmain girl has always been about the lean, pointed heel (and toe to match). It fits with her skinny, low-rising leather pants and heavily adorned minis – a true rocker (no matter how luxury-loving she is) … Continue reading “Balmain Alight Booties: The Alight is More than Alright”

Giuseppe Zanotti Suede Corset Bootie: Damsels Need Not Apply

So this is what they mean by the term “killer heels.” Giuseppe isn’t messing around! Not only do these booties boast a 5” stacked stiletto, they encase your foot in a very foreboding arrangement of thick, cage-like straps and taught lacing. But the genius of Zanotti is that these shoes don’t deliver what you would … Continue reading “Giuseppe Zanotti Suede Corset Bootie: Damsels Need Not Apply”
