A Week of Top-Fives: Day Four, Heels

Heeeeeeeels! I love them (in SL :P) and there are so many freakin' amazing ones here, it was a sonofabitch choosing just five pairs!


Maitreya came out with their gold label this summer, I think. I wasn't around so I may be a bit off, but I'm pretty sure that's when they debuted. Anyhow, these Shanti heels are just amazing. They were one of my first purchases when I came back, and of course I had to buy the fatpack. It was a must. One of my favourite features of buying from the gold label is the fact that included is a notecard of common skin creators, and the numbers you need to have to match your foot tone to your skin. For the tonally challenged people like me, this is fantastic.

Nardcotix released these Ashoka plaid heels not too long ago, and they go very well with Phoenix Rising's Motive outfit, as the plaid matches the plaid in the corset. The ruffle is fantastic!


Very recently, LeLutka held an amazing fashion show, probably the best one I've ever seen in SL. One of the featured items was these amazing Saffron heels, though they weren't yet available in all of the gorgeous colours and combinations that they are now. I think this navy and tan combo is my favourite one, but there is so much to choose from it's hard to decide for sure.


Shiny Things hasn't released anything for awhile now (sadface, where are you Fallingwater?!), and these Belles were released at *last year's* Shoe Fair. I still love them to itty bitty pieces though, so they definitely get a ranking on my personal top five.


Every girl needs a classic pair of stilettos in their inventory, and these Maitreya Slinky Stilettos fit the bill perfectly for me. They're of course available in like a billionty colours, and they're just elegant and understated, but so well executed, it's a crime to not have them in your inventory.

Hope you liked today's post. Stay tuned for that other staple, flats, tomorrow!

Sweet Marie

It's been a whole bunch of boots for a while now, it's time for a change. Camilla Yosuke sent me this wonderful assortment of her newest footwear, Marie Jeanne Heels from INSOLENCE. The Marie Jeanne's are a sweet ultra shiny Mary Jane shoe. They come in a range of soft pastel shoes as well as basic black in two metal options. They have a softly rounded toe and a retro inspired ample heel, a thick strap across the top is fastened with an attractive buckle.


I chose to wear the slate blue which has an almost silvery appearance. Other shades include pink, purple, beige, camel and the aforementioned black that comes in both silver and gold accent metal. A high heeled Mary Jane has the ability to be sweet and sexy, which certainly suits the rest of Camilla's line of lingerie and footwear.

Simple elegant styling was my choice for this look, and stand by for a bit of shameless self promotion as I am wearing the latest release from PIN UP Dolls the creation of my alter ego, Pin Upshaw, a silver colored system skirted satin dress with prim accent tie at the neck and delicate beading. Unique Silver accessories from UZURI, prim nails (with ring) from Love Soul, hair from ETD (currently closed) complete my look.

Visit INSOLENCE to locate these sweet shoes.

The Vixen 2 was released over the weekend, and for those like me who really loved the Vinyl Vixens, along with all the other goodies TESLA serves up, there is no denying how much I like these.


The range of soft pastel colors and the amazing pearlescent finish are unique and really pretty. There are 10 shades available in all - Slate shown above - an below are; Purple, Alizarin, Asparagus, Azure, TeaRose, Emerald, Fallow, Mauve and Violet.

New Viniani at Armidi

...say that 10 times, fast!

Oh, what sets my heart a flutter more than release day at Armidi? Surely I do not know. And there I was thick with lag and determination, I needed to see the shoes. Yesterday's massive release included accessories, Men's and Women's Gisaci items... and these, the Viniani Heels.


Oh joy, what bliss - so many colors... possibly too many colors! It was near to impossible to decide, and even harder after I saw the new clothing and wanted them to all cooperate well. I am going to have to learn to browse then buy! But decisions were eventually made, my picks; Chocolate - those sneaky Armidites tried to make me choose between 3 equally awesome browns (tisk, tisk!), Eggplant - irresistible shade, and Reja Pink - because I'm a girl darn it!

As usual the shoes are great, nothing bad to say about them - they just keep getting better! Take a closer look at the Viniani Heels by trying a demo, and see all the new releases at Armidi. You can also visit the Armidi Blog for fancier pictures than I could ever take. :)

ChiChi, Yes Yes...Yes!

It feels like I have been living in lingerie for the past week or so, but really what better reason to take off your clothes is there… than lounging about in great shoes like these. When I first caught sight of the new ChiChi shoes from Maitreya it was at the GLAM Magazine launch fashion show. My heart skipped at least a beat, maybe two, my camera zoomed – I was in bliss. These shoes are like a little Valentine’s gift to all female feet across the grid.


Onyx LeShelle has really outdone herself, the styling of this shoe is spectacular and inspired by a real life shoe that she fell in love with on sight – no I won’t name names… but feel free to do some research! The amazing shape is a shoe lovers dream, and the details are completely ingenious, she even went so far at to have the inside textured to give the illusion of a shadow created by the straps and ties… I mean – nobody sees that unless they are rezzing them to take a photograph, but there it is, small gold logo embossed on the sole and all.

You really can’t go wrong with these shoes – my advice is fatpack these babies, but even if you can decide on one or two pairs – you get so much value here. The shoes are scripted – NO, not for bling or clicking! –so that you can change the color of the trim. There are 14 shoe colors, and 16 changeable trim colors… my math is rusty, but I think that gives you approx. 224 options… far too many to list here. And knowing how Maitreya continually experiments with new and exciting textures I am sure that it won’t be long before they introduce variations of the ChiChi. The ChiChi has just hit the shelves – make sure a visit to GLAM WORLD 2 is on your Valentine’s ‘to do’ list. Now please… I need some alone time with my shoes!

Also wearing; Minnu Skin, Artilleri lingerie and hair. The amazing cushions are by Neil Protagonist and are available at Fluff n Stuff.

Under Lock and Key...

I was delighted when Rowan Caroll from She's So Unusual, recently sent over a folder with her new goodies from January, and threw in a pair of Brown Suede Chain Booties from the December release. Although Rowan's store name speaks for itself, I admire her flair for mixing the unexpected with classic looks.

Take the Chain Booties for example, the classic short boot enhanced with silver accents, such as the metal heel and all wrapped with a chain. Completing the look is a little lock on top with a dainty red heart. How did she know the key to my heart was through my shoes???

As for the newer items at She's So Unusual, the Silk Bow tie heels are a cute, dress up shoe that comes in several colors. These are a great addition for the upcoming spring dresses, and are a steal at $95L a pair. Speaking of steals, if you are a fan of flats, check out the new Chinese Flats, only $50L!
