Style File : Aldo Doyscher heels

Just last week, I was out for dinner with Beetrice in Orchard Road and as fate would have it, we walked past an Aldo store with a sale sign. You know what happens when girls see sales signs, right?

So we walked in just to ‘look-see’ (or so we told ourselves). Haha. And you already know what’s coming next…

Say hello to the latest (and most expensive) addition to my shoe wardrobe, Aldo’s Doyscher in black leather.

With an almost 4 1/2in heel (yes, I measured!), the Doyscher is possibly the highest high heel I’ve owned to date and if I do say so myself, it makes my legs look longer. Naturally, it is not for traipsing around on the roadsides of Singapore nor is it meant for long shopping expeditions. So for now, I shall just prance around in my heels in the office ala The Devil Wears Prada. Hehe.

The recommended retail price for Aldo’s Doyscher heels is SGD 159.00.

I figure the Doyscher will make an excellent stand-in (possible dupe?) until the day I can get my hands on these gorgeous Christian Louboutin Declic heels below.

Nine West Udell peep-toe heels

It’s been some time since I last posted a Shoe of the Week blogpost, and in view of the holiday/party season that’s upon us, here’s a party shoe from Nine West that I’m absolutely coveting!

The 4 inch heel is just the thing to add height and give the impression of mile-long legs under a Little Black Dress and oh so handy for cocktail parties right up to formal dinners. Since it’s black, it could well go with anything I own (which is mostly black, anyway) and look good too!

Nine West is currently retailing the Udell at USD 135.00 (price before shipping charges).

Nine West Everless strappy open-toe heels

This is going to be the start of a regular series of blogposts I’m calling the Shoe of the Week. (Actually, it’s just an excuse for me to indulge in virtual shoe-shopping and highlighting my favorite designs that I covet in my shoe collection. Haha.)

This is the Everless strappy open-toe heels, under Nine West’s Boutique 9 series. I am so in love with the dainty 3″ heel and the triple straps across the front. Although this design comes in black and beige also, I think the reptile skin makes it stand out in a class of its own. It would be perfect with a little black dress and a matching reptile skin clutch for a cocktail party.

This beauty retails between USD 89.99 to 130.00 (before shipping charges).
