Valentino: Saying good-bye with color

Posted by shoesense in Fashion Week, High heels, Sandals, Valentino Shoes, Wedges

Valentino’s latest runway collections got rave reviews; certainly, the man knows how to retire in style. Colorful, playful, elegant, chic, and at times simply breathtaking–such were his offerings in the Paris show. The shoes were equally beautiful; although perhaps not completely innovative (we’ve seen the double-knotted strappy sandal before, as well as the vividly-colored platforms, the cut-out wedges, and the metallics). Still, the shoes were pretty, pretty, pretty–whether in pink, purple, gold, or black.

You want them, you know you do–plus, they’ll quickly achieve collector status, given that this is Valentino’s last season as a designer.

Love is in the air

Posted by shoesense in Flats, Valentino Shoes

I was browsing to see what’s new when I stumbled across these beaaauuuutiful peep-toe ‘rosette’ skimmers, with a twine of vine meandering on the soft, blush upper. Ooooh, can I fawn over them some more? For these are the very definition of pretty, with a good dose of flair and elegance thrown in for good measure.

Can you imagine a more perfect footwear for Valentine’s Day? And wait, that’s not all! They’re by (brace yourselves) Valentino himself! Ah! Be still my beating heart!

They’re currently available for pre-order at Saks for the not-so-modest amount of $395. But really, can you put a price on loooove?
