Manolo Blahnik To Unveil More Feminine Looks

manolo-blahnik-shoe-designer.jpg

At a recent promotional appearance at Bergdorf Goodman's second floor, Manolo Blahnik was on hand to greet fans and satisfy the womanly desires behind his famed blue pumps from the Sex And The City movie. "My duty in life is to entertain," the shoe designer stated as he blew kisses to the audience.

When asked about next seasons designs, Blahnik said he would unveil even more feminine looks, including "lovely slippers, which you will love," he gushed.

Ok, I can't stand the suspense!! More feminine looks, lovely slippers...I would trade my lunch for a sneak peek at these goodies!!

Manolo Blahnik Sizing & Fit Tips

manolo-blahnik-sizing.jpg

Here are a few Manolo Blahnik Sizing Tips To Keep Handy:

  1. Manolo Blahnik shoes run small and narrow.
  2. It has been our experience to add 30.5 to your US size (if you are US 8, you need 38.5 in Manolos).
  3. If your feet are on the wide side, add 31.
  4. Mules run extra small, add 31.
  5. If you have wide feet, mules might not be such a good idea for you, but slides will work well.

How To Spot Fake Manolo Blahnik's

shoe_sizes.jpg

With all the hype about The Sex and the City movie and the shoes that will be worn, we thought it relevant to offer a little "help" for those looking to cut corners on their next shoe purchase.

5 Steps In Spotting Fake Manolo's

  1. Manolo Blahnik shoes do not have embossed serial numbers.
  2. Authentic Manolo Blahnik dust bags are white with black lettering. The box is also white with black
  3. Manolo Blahnik shoes always have a leather sole.
  4. If purchasing online (such as on eBay), You should try to compare pictures of the item up for auction to the pictures of what you know to be an authentic item- magazine articles, company website. Major retailer's sites might be good source.
  5. Authentic Manolo Blahnik has only two types of labels. The first one is the traditional one and is found in most of the styles. The other one is from “My favorites” collection and is actually Mr. Blahnik’s signature. (A very rare find these days)

We at Shoeflair always use the "gut" approach. That is..if it is too good to be true, then it probably is. Our gut instinct has never been wrong. Learn to trust yours.

Shoes Of The Day: Manolo Blahnik Lizard Sandals

manolo-blahnik-lizard-sandals.jpg

We have a love/hate relationship with lizard/snake-skin shoes. Unfortunately the style has been so overdone this last year, but then we see a shoe like this and fall back in love again. We absolutely love how the heel applies a diminutive-feel to the overall look of the shoe.

These Manolo Blahnik Lizard Strappy Sandals retail for $565, but you can find them listed at Downtowngal Shoes for $299.00.

Shoes of The Day: Manolo Blahnik Camouflage Bamboo Slides

camo.jpg

Watching the news the other night and seeing female solders coming home to a warm family welcome made me wonder: How does one look stylish and wear camo at the same time? Like a cross between G.I Jane and Carrie Bradshaw, these camouflage Manolo Blahnik's with Bamboo Straps are the only way I could pull it off.

Probably not combat rated - but good enough for storming through the concrete urban jungle on my way to work.

You can find them for $299 ($699 Retail) at Downtowngal Shoes.

Manolo Blahnik revelas he doesn't understand the vogue for clumpy shoe shapes. As purveyor of some of the finest footwear the world has ever seen, Manolo Blahnik reveals he is less than impressed with the recent vogue for clumpy shoe shapes and chunky heels. 'They don't even look like shoes,' the designer says. 'It's like talking in Chinese. I don't understand them at all. The past few years have been aesthetic hell for me. Even Daphne Guinness has made herself look ridiculous in monstrous shoes. It's because designers have forgotten about the importance of the harmony of extremes.' And the modern media doesn't fare much better, in his opinion. 'I'm totally confused, more...

Top Trends: Feathers & Fishnet & Cork

manolo_blahnik_cork.jpg

Have you seen the latest spring shoes? There are so many whimsical touches that it's just so fun to shop. Take this Manolo Blahnik Feather-Trim d'Orsay pump, for instance. I can just see myself wearing it with my LBD (little black dress). The turquoise feather adds just the right amount of sass.

I'm also loving the bad-girl edge that the Christian Louboutin Fishnet Platform Pump lends me. It's still oh-so-proper with just a whisper of sexiness.

And then there's the Christian Louboutin Patent Wedge with its cork heel...more

Dallas is Bananas for Blahnik

manolo_trunk_show.jpg

For those of you living in Dallas and near the Neiman Marcus Downtown, stop by tomorrow (Feb 9th) and enjoy the last day of their trunk show. On display are the very latest spring shoes, from sassy red sandals and pink polka-dot slingbacks to cute white pumps and animal-print heels. A little birdie told us that if you're shopping online you'll get a free book featuring some of Mr. Blahnik's favorite sketches with a $650 Blahnik purchase; it's online only, though.

Manolo Blahnik Leather Criss Cross Pump

image

Carrie Bradshaw made Manolo Blahnik a household name, and judging from the hotness of each and every one of his shoes, we’re not complaining! Take these beautiful 4 inch stunners for example.

The shiny gold metallic material oozes glamor, while the criss cross peep toe straps ensure just enough naughtiness without showing off all the goods (this applies to more than just your shoes, ladies!)

They are pricey at $665, but we’ve managed to find a couple lookalikes that come pretty darn close without breaking the bank.'
