This pretty new style from Nine West is making us long for the warm summer months ahead. We first spotted these pretty peeps while shopping for sequined party heels for New Years, which made us seriously second-guess our decision to stay in New York for the holiday rather than flying to Miami to ring in the New Year.
Oh well, at least our pale peds have something bright to look forward to. Reminiscent of Prada’s wedged platform mary jane from S/S 2011, this bright color-blocked look gives is a little taste of what’s to come.
It’s all about color next season and the Nine West Boushie Wedge colors you in all the right places.

They’re basically moon boots but have better traction and are more aerodynamic. You should probably get a pair. – Napoleon | Napoleon Dynamite
If you were hoping that the moccasin boot trend would fade away this year, we’re sorry to disappoint you, because not only with the mock live to tell another tale, it will also be feeding inspiration for re-imagined classics. Two interesting, if not fantastical ideas come together to create a fantastically interesting new style. The famous Moon Boot meets the fringed moccasin.
Moon Boots were first introduced to the fashion scene in the early 1970s by Tecnica Group and became a notable fashion trend throughout the 1980s. Since being trademarked by the brand in 1978, they’ve been in constant production, but have seen popularity in peaks over the past 30+ years. They’re peaking once again.
Utility meets fashion? Is this new style a major #fail or #winning. Here’s some food for thought. The Fringed Mock Moon Boot - Tecnica W.E. Dakota Moon Boot has no distinct left or right foot. Cool.

Like cars, shoes provide mobility. Ferrari produced shoes with Puma, Michael Jordan designed his basketball shoes after the favorite Italian luxury automotive and the famous Chuck Taylor from Converse was advertised as “limousines for your feet”. Are you seeing the trend here?
For S/S 2012, Prada certainly has vintage in mind, but these stylized creations are taking their cue from vintage cars. Think chrome, conical taillights, the red-hot flame that conjures up memories from Grease lightning and the classic Chevy Bel-Air. The shoes are a part of an entire classic auto-inspired collection, which includes clothing and accessories from the Milanese fashion house.
Any man who questions a women’s love for shoes, should evaluate their own desire for a car that looks good, goes fast and ultimately elevates their social status. For those fashionistas living in an urban setting, like New York and San Francisco, this fact is even truer. If a suburbanite can have a fancy BMW, why can’t I have a $1,500 pair of shoes? The S/S 2012 line from Prada will be available just in time for the summer car wash season.
A little too kitsch for your tastes? Let’s see: Women, fast cars and shoes? We’re pretty sure Prada has it the nail on the head. The S/S 2012 line from Prada will be available for Spring.

We’re currently obsessed with ankle-high booties and these luxurious little show stoppers from Nine West have certainly got our full attention.
What’s not to like about these perfectly simple, go with everything, stacked heel booties? This is the kind of shoe you pack for your holiday vacation because it goes with everything! Not that it will stop you from packing more shoes (we’d never suggest that!)
The Nine West Mavenue
goes from uptown to downtown, across the bridge…and across the tracks. Wear with pencil skirts, mini skirts, maxi skirts and everything else you have in your winter wardrobe. Available in black, taupe, burgundy and brown. Which one suits your tastes?
