Holiday Party How-To: Part 2
December 4th, 2008
Following yesterday’s post on affordable holiday dresses (in the first installment of my three-part series), I’ve rounded up six pairs of shoes that won’t break the bank. Whether you’re attending a ritzy ball or a casual cocktail party, these have just the right amount of detailing to put a skip in your step.
T-Strap: Chinese Laundry All In, $70. The three muted colors merge seamlessly on these festive sandals.
Preppy: Seychelles On The Wire, $100. I love the idea of pairing these sexy-librarian-meets-Bohemian-Goddess pumps with some super opaque tights.
Muted Gold: Nina Undine, $99. These shoes have just the right amount of glitz, without being overdone in an amazingly flattering shape.
Edgy: TopShop Studded Peep Toe, $125. These rocker booties would be the perfect complement to a feminine dress.
Patent Pump: Mia Diva, $55. In this deep wine hue, these patent pumps will make legs look miles long.
Strappy Silver: Enzo Angiolini Holling Evening Sandal, $98. I’d paint my toes in a bright red polish before throwing on these sexy sandals.
Coming tomorrow: Accessories







Gold and silver should be the ones to party in!!

SG adores patent heels recently. depending on outfits, they can be so dressy or casual.
Those shoes are hot! Love the green ones.
I am a total victim when it comes to gorgeous wooden platforms like on those green numbers. I love how they make every outfit just a little bit cooler without feeling over the top. I wore a similarly styled pair for my wedding at City Hall in manhattan, only they were purple patent leather. LOVE!
I love the patent pumps! So basic, but great for most any outfit.
I love that classic patent pump. I think you’re right about how flattering it would be to the legs.
I’m going to need the Edgy Show right now.
i love the edgy booties from topshop! that’s totally my style!
Lots of great shoes!
I love that t-strap and it’s affordable!
Give me Edgy… all the way!
