All That Glitters is Golden!


Who wouldn’t love a little glitz and glamor added to their life? Feeling like your style needs a little boost? These tinsel-esque pumps are here to revamp even the most boring closets! Sequins are all the rage this fall. Everyone from Badgley Mischka, to Valentino, to Christian Louboutin have embraced these disco ball-like platform pumps in their collections. Personally, I have always loved glitter and sequins…I have memories ranging from playing dress up in my mother’s pearl and sequin encrusted high heels, to my senior year when I bedazzled my home-made Christina Aguilera (circa the “Genie in a Bottle” Era) Halloween costume, that I would secretly would love to wear again. Sequins are just flat out fun. While making you feel like a little girl playing in her mother’s closet, these heels are allowing you to simultaneously feel ultra hip and rocker chic. It is amazing how the juxtaposition of two completely different emotions can somehow coincide together with such fluidity and pizzazz.

These heels are in desperate need of a simple silhouette. Who would want to compete with sequin heels? Really there is no contest. If your budget allows, pair these multi-colored Miu Miu platform pumps (on sale for $456) with a great pair of skinny jeans and a super simple top for a head-to-toe look worthy of Page Six. For those of us that have bills to pay, check out these great designer-inspired kicks below and get the “look for less.” Regardless of the price tag, this look will make your fashion-heart flutter. Click those heels Dorothy!
