Perfect Party Dress Sandal: Nina Elga

Posted by kim on February 15, 2010

I believe that the most important party dress accessories are your shoes. Some may argue that it’s your jewelry, but I think most stylists will agree with the shoes.  And I found the perfect pair of party pumps!

The Nina Elga combines simplicity with a trendy touch. It’s a sleek satin pump with an open toe and a strap around the ankle that adjusts with a buckle. A t-shape is created with the addition of a matching ruffle, stretching from the ankle to the toe. A great addition to this classic shoe.

The Nina Elga Satin Pumps have a 4 1/4″ inch heel height and come in a variety of colors including Black Luster Satin (shown), Chocolate Luster Satin, Ivory Luster Satin, New Navy Luster Satin, Powder Sand Luster Satin, Red Rouge Luster Satin, Steel Luster Satin, White Luster Satin. With that many colors to choose from, you’re bound to match almost any party dress perfectly!

You can purchase your own Nina Elga Satin Pumps directly from ShoeBuy.com for $82.95 with Free Shipping.  According to the site, this particular style tends to run narrow. If you have a wide foot, for an accurate fit, they recommend ordering a half  size larger than what you would typically order. If by chance, they don’t fit ShoeBuy also offers Free Return Shipping, so you have nothing to lose!

Party on!

Shoes from Sex and the City 2 Movie

Posted by kim on December 28, 2009

WeLikeFashion.com released pictures of Sarah Jessica Parker playing Carrie Bradshaw in the new Sex and the City movie due out next year. Carrie’s shoes from the first SATC movie were (and still are) a huge hit.

Here’s my take on what shoes Carrie is wearing, from left to right. Please correct me if you think or know otherwise – thanks!

1. I’m pretty sure these are Christian Louboutin Leopard Pumps.  I can’t tell if hers are peep-toe or not, so they could also be Christian Louboutin Pigalle Pony Fur Pumps. But I think they definitely have the signature CL red sole.

2. These look similar to Christian Louboutin Cap-Toe T-Strap d’Orsay pumps, but the reference sites I found all seem to be replica CL’s.  My guess is that at least one of her pairs of shoes will have been designed especially for the movie and will not be made available to the public until after the movie is a hit. They may even be Chanel, as Chanel is highly known for cap-toes.

3. These are definitely Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Sneakers.

Converse All Star Core OX (shown right), $45 from Zappos.com

Converse All Star Leather Ox, $62 from Zappos

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Scratched Leather Ox in Charcoal/Black, $70 from Zappos

Converse (Product) Red Chuck Taylor All Star African Canvas Ox, $50 from Zappos (traditional black with signature top red eyelets and (PRODUCT) RED footbed. 5% of price goes to The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

They look like one of the above traditional black Converse All Stars, but could possibly be the Chuck Taylor All Star Double Tongue Ox or even Converse Chuck Taylor Sequined Sneakers ($85 from Nordstrom).
