Insiders Tips!
By Zofia St James, Stylist for Westfield
Winter. Cold, wet and miserable? We are now fast approaching the winter months and I must encourage you, if only with the words “ End of Season Sales.”
Now is the very best time to bag bargains! You will still get a lot of wear out of any
purchases made right now, plus stock up for next season. If you are really lucky, you might even find a great pair of last season’s strappy stilettos at a ridiculous price [It’s happened to me!] that you can look forward to wearing in a few months. If you are concerned about buying something now that may be “So last season!” as far as shoes are concerned, from last season to next, you are safe. The newest and most directional shaped toe or heels are introduced to us in magazines etc and to the European market
first. I see this as a great advantage. Even if you purchase Australian Vogue, they will showcase what’s coming through. Often its takes a couple of seasons to see a style really established here. Keep your eye on what is coming through in magazines and certain websites and you’ll learn all about what’s a keeper in the style stakes and what will be a one season wonder. When you have embraced that way of making educated purchasing choices, there will be far less regrets. At the end of the day, my stylist tip is to enjoy fashion as a guide, know your own style, and then make your own.

Country Rock 'n' Roll
Perfectly polished, a heel that is an example of, beautiful classics mixed with country bumpkin. This Prada Napa Fringe Thong Sandal epitomizes that exuberant flirt, it’s a little bit country and a little bit rock ’n’ roll, with its slick dynamic look fused with the fringe. The exaggerated long fringe also adds an element of peep toe action wit the length perfectly measured to skim the top of your toes. With a heavy-set accessory as the fringe, it is best to keep the rest of your outfit simple, add a special touch with a pair of dangly earrings to offset your look.

Feline Femme
Cleopatra, Nefertiti, take your pick, that’s how you will feel in this larger than life heel. The regal femininity exuded by this Guiseppe Zanotti ’Tigers Eye’ heel, is
Glamour for today, sophisticated, sexy, and larger than life. You will want to show off this Tiger’s Eye, the bold amber stones contrasted with the stark white background, match with ankle length skinny leg jeans in a deep navy hue and some chandelier earrings to tie your indulgent look together.
Sweet Touch
There is a balanced quirkiness in a tone of the timeless classic, moulded into this energetic red flat heel named Kirsten. Georgina Goodman consistently includes a special touch to each of her shoes and the evident hand stitching adds an element of care and quality, the round heel creates a new dynamic of polished sweet elegance. I love these flats because they are special enough for an occasion, or an evening out and ideal if you’re not a heel person.

Sou Sou, Kyoto
Hello to all my fellow shoe aficionados, my name is Rasha Karim and I am your shoesforher.com editor, adding something a little different, my Shoe Lovers Guide to Japan. I was in Japan as part of a study group within my Fashion and textiles degree at university. We were there to soak up the Japanese culture, trends, and bounty of textiles and designers their country had on offer. As the editor of shoesforher.com I went scouting for shoes all over Japan – not that that was very difficult, there is an overwhelming plethora of choice! I tried to get as many images to share as I could get away with, for my fellow shoe enthusiasts and any future Japan-o-philes!
Kyoto, Japan's first capital city and its most traditional, is the home of Sou Sou, a store w
hose philosophy consists of blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, for a look that’s fresh while retaining a sense of authenticity and patriotic integrity. What intrigued me most about the shop, was of course the
shoes!
They playfully adapt the toe to visually represent the traditional socks work with kimono and thongs, yet updated into these fanciful little booties, with designs sure to tickle an array of different tastes. They even have a wide selection of thong socks as I like to call them for you to wear with the shoes for a more comfortable snug fit. There is a space boot edge to these shoes which I think builds on the modern aesthetic, the use of pattern is quite inventive and fun, it is literally a feast for the eyes, I must add, trying to find a pair for myself took a long an arduous selection process until I finally narrowed it down to my final choice, the truth is, I wanted to buy them all!
I tried on a number of pairs, and I must admit they felt a little strange with the toe
separators, however I quickly got used to it, and I must say they are some of the most
comfortable shoes I have ever worn.
At prices from about 6500 yen (AUS70) to 10200 yen (AUS110) they are in the mid range in shoe speak however I found them to be comfortable and waterproof, quite the handy sidekick trekking through Tokyo for hours on end on a wet winters day. I highly recommend Sou Sou to any shoe or design enthusiast, its appeal is fascinating, charming, and quaint, the staff are exceptionally sweet, accommodating especially a shopper’s indecision.
All in all I found it to be a wonderful metaphor for the city of Kyoto, harmonising Japanese technology and tradition. If you have any jet setting shoe-speriences of your own, don’t hesitate to tell us about them, share your own overseas shoe adventure with our readers who may be heading over to the same place, send photos and a description of where you went, to: editor@shoesforher.com.
