Introduction
and special thank you
Hi
everyone and welcome to the third edition of ShoeLover
news. I won’t consume too much valuable line space,
apart from using the opportunity to thank the wonderful
people who make the ShoeLover Club possible because
without them, we would not have a legitimate excuse
to obsess over shoes as much as we do.
First things first, I’d like to extend an extra special
thank you to Nancy and Ellinah of the ShoeLover Club
Committee for compiling this issue of ShoeLover e-news
as well as to Joanne who faithfully edits our printed
material. A big thank you must also be extended to
Beth for her contributions towards the Emporio event,
which many of you enjoyed last month as well as Jayne,
Micki and Margaret.
Emporio Event
Below is some feedback from a fellow Shoelover member who attended the Emporio VIP Event last month…
“Wanted to thankyou for such a good VIP night at Emporio last night! Was excellent indeed. Staff and other customers were lovely and very helpful (particularly an African lady; a customer who was incredibly warm and helpful in making well needed decisions!).
The food and champagne were just right, and also the prizes were a great idea (I won a door prize! Yay).
And of course the fact that I bought some great shoes!!! Well worth it, so thankyou. Very glad I went.
Keep up the good work Janine!”
- Lauren
The Emporio Event last month was a great success with over 70 of Perth’s fashionista turning up to pamper themselves in style. I have had an overwhelming response from the people attending and wanting to know when we are having the next event. I will keep you posted….until then, please go online and check out these gorgeous photos from the night.

Who said Winter has to be dull?
Jennifer O'Donnell
Emporio Footwear State Manager
Brighten the dark season at Emporio with a colour-rich palette of footwear and accessories vibrant enough to block out even the slightest hint of winter blues.
Variety is the spice of life this season. Showcasing the best in affordable fashion footwear, ShooBiz has too much to offer! From fun and daring brights to deep winter tones, the ShooBiz range holds all your winter needs.
Patent is the word on everyone’s lips. Dress it up, dress it down. Just make sure you own at least one pair. Start with ZARA, the perfect dress shoe. Simple yet stunning and great for a night out!
If heels aren’t your thing you ought to view ShooBiz’s extensive range of flat boots. Buckles, trims, zips and studs, distressed, rebellious or sleek, ShooBiz caters for all boot needs. Hot picks: MAXIMO for the stud detailing, ENRICK featuring the fold over cuff (up or down wear it how you like), VALLI or DARBY for that equestrian style – we love them in brown.
Every good shoe needs a good accessory right? ShooBiz showcases a huge range of accessories to work back with your footwear.
Match your ANNA peep toe patent Mary Janes with JEMMA, a fabulous clutch featuring a chain strap, or for a more casual look opt for a shoulder bag such as CASEY and work back with jeans. Add a belt such FREYA or SHERYL and away you go!
Day bags are a necessity but they can be stylish too! Try GIGI, a slouchy shoulder bag, or CARINE an oversized distressed style, which looks super-hot in taupe. Be sure to take a look at ShooBiz’s hosiery range – It’s all about layering this season, bottom up!
From high-shine patent, man style or preppy, Scooter has it covered. Check out JOE the ultra-high patent bootie with the on-trend brogue detailing, or JASPER the sleek patent T-bar, which looks best teamed with bright opaques or thigh-high socks – the latest addition to the Scooter accessory range…
The ballet flat is here to stay! This transeasonal
classic has been around for a number of seasons
but this winter it’s all about new trims, bright
colours and dual tones. Get inspired by MEDORA
in peppercorn leather featuring an elasticised
back or GABY
that greets us straight from the catwalk!
Let’s not forget the ever-present man-style trend. Hot picks: KANDA in black and white or the heeled version, SPIGA. For something preppy take a look at PENNY or SPOKE. So effortlessly stylish and comfortable too!
For fast fashion at its best, Mollini is the destination. Boasting hot new styles with an international flavour, Mollini suits the fashionably forward and fashionably daring! Femme fatale, sky-high and skinny all have one thing in common at Mollini this season…KILLER HEELS!
Wear the popular banana peel with pride. Available
in three colour combos, whatever your decision
you can’t possibly go wrong.
Shoots – you guessed it, a shoe crossed with a boot, Mollini has it covered. Hot picks: RUBY, fabulously stylish, sporting a daring low-cut design to elongate the legs. Stunning! OUTKAST, available in black, purple or gunmetal is a definite standout style with all the features of a shoe boot but with a peep toe. Great party wear!
For something completely fabulous feast your eyes on DRAMATIC, the outrageously high peacock patent dress shoe with unique platform. This shoe is so hot it won’t matter what else you’re wearing.
With the cooler weather on its way it’s safe to say boots are a must, but who said they need to be boring? KALYPSO, in either brown or black is a trendy ankle boot with a fold over design and ruched buckle. Needs to be seen… perhaps you did on the Chie Mihara catwalk?
Whether you prefer to play it safe or venture out this winter, the latest shoe and accessory collections from Emporio allow for any occasion, mood or outfit! So hurry, get in store…before it starts to rain!!

shoe of the month |

By Nancy Meleka

If you’re a guess shoe lover
and know shoes such as 'Harriet'
or 'Kachina',
then you will understand the boldness and sexiness
contained in this foot candy.
What makes this - 'Salina' 4" shoe different - is the lovely cork platform heel that although is pointed & has a touch of the classic cut - shows off its sexy, curvy stiletto heel and leaves your feet looking sleek.

This beauty can be dressed up with skinny jeans and bling for the evenings and dressed down with a short number of your choice and length. No matter the style, this shoe makes what you wear chic and elegant due to its patent finish.
It manages to be narrow without making the foot look too long (and mind you - for me this matters as I am a size 10, thank you very much) and give you the extra height if you're a little on the vertically challenged side.

questions answered |

Stylist for Westfield

MEMBER'S QUESTION 1.
I am also looking for an amazing pair of heels that I can wear with anything and that are very comfy.
ANSWER 1.
I can honestly say I took the challenge of finding an ‘Amazing’ pair of heels very seriously and like the song says “I have been everywhere man”. Oh the agony and the ectasy of it!. My search took me from Gucci to Myer and everywhere in between! As a result I have to say that one shoe label really stood out as far as style, design and quality is concerned. Price wise, these shoes are well priced in the medium price point market and now at this late stage of the current season, you can bag a pair for around $130.00. The label is Robert Robert. The style that appealed to me the most is a gorgeous court shoe, Tan in colour with a buckle and stud design affect across the toe. Great with jeans, and work just as well with a more corporate look. The label is available at most shoe retailers. This pair however I found in David Jones.
MEMBER'S QUESTION 2.
Well if so, do you inform us where we can get great bargains?
ANSWER 2.
Being able to obtain a great pair of shoes at the best price is one of lifes natural highs! We will bring you news of pending sales and promotions as we receive it.
