Kori Ellis — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:23:15 +0000

For holiday parties, winter galas and other special occasions, you need a fantastic pair of dazzling evening shoes. Recently, I came across these black T-strap sandals at Nordstrom that are simply gorgeous. The Bourne Micha T-Strap Sandals feature rows of cascading sparkling stones and large jewels over the peep toe for some sparkle.

These sweet sandals have a back zipper for easy entry and a 3 1/2-inch heel. These black satin sandals are perfect for an evening out. They are priced at $235 and come in European whole sizes. If you are between sizes, order the larger size.

If you want something a little different than basic black, these Bourne sandals also come in grey or rose satin. Though the black are versatile, I personally adore the grey!

Metallic Sandals from Via Spiga

Kori Ellis — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 00:11:30 +0000

If you are looking to add a new pair of sandals to your shoe collection, consider metallic sandals for some extra glitz. Metallic sandals are a great choice, whether you are wearing them with a little black dress or more casually with your favorite capris. Today, let’s take a look at some metallic sandals from Via Spiga. All of these sandals are available at Nordstrom.

Via Spiga Aaron Sandal
Metallic doesn’t necessarily mean extra shiny, as you can see by these bronze sandals. These T-strap sandals have a modern look with their soft bronze leather and open style. These shoes have a 4-inch heel with a 1-inch platform for some extra lift. They are priced at $215.

Via Spiga Eddie Sandal
If you like gladiators, you will dig these mirrored silver sandals from Via Spiga. They feature an adjustable ankle strap and 4 1/4-inch wedge heel. I like the combination of metallic leather with the chunky cork sole. These sandals are available for $185.

Image: Nordstrom

Via Spiga Dallas Sandal
While the gladiators are chunky and trendy, you might be looking for a more classic evening sandal. If that’s the case, you’ll love these gold slingbacks. They feature a rhinestone ornament over the peeptoe. You can get the Via Spiga Dallas sandal right now at Nordstrom for 40% off. Originally priced at $198.95, they are now just $119.90.

Sandals in neutral colors such as cream and taupe are on trend this summer. These sandals from Kate Spade feature a suede upper with patent leather details resulting in a very luxurious, sophisticated look. The Kate Spade Glamour has a cute bow over the open toe and a chain accent along the T-strap.

Giuseppe Zanotti Jeweled Sandal

Kori Ellis — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 01:39:07 +0000

Though I’m not sure I’d drop over a grand on these Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, they are definitely worth a look. Created from black silk and accented with Swarovski crystals, these are certainly stunning. These sandals have lots of interesting details. Outside of the crystals and jewels, they have zipper up the back and adjustable ankle strap.

Image: Neiman Marcus

Even if I had the cash, I’m not sure I could wear these. I’d be so afraid of damaging them. I’m pretty hard on shoes in general; I can’t imagine what I would do if I ruined thousand dollar shoes on my first night out.

If you are ready to splurge, you can get these jeweled sandals right now at Neiman Marcus for $1,095.

Pretty shoes don’t have to be uncomfortable. In fact, these sandals by Cole Haan feature Nike Air technology for extra cushioning and long-lasting, maximum comfort.

Pedro Garcia Arabella Crystal Sandals

Kori Ellis — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 06:00:45 +0000

These pewter metallic sandals from Pedro Garcia are an ideal choice for an evening out on the town. I adore pewter as an alternative to the oftentimes too shiny silver.

These modern evening sandals feature a thin crystal-embellished strap across the toes. In the back, they have a wide strap that buckles at the side.

With their 4 1/2-inch heels, you have to be comfortable with high heels to wear these pretty sandals. Though many women are steering away from sky-high heels, I think they are worth it for a few hours out at a special event or party.

You can get these crystal sandals for $440 right now at net-a-porter.com.
