StyleCard: NX Kurvy Pumps & T-Straps


Oh, how I love my Retro. The new Kurvy Pumps from Nardya Rousselot's Nardcotix, NX, instantly give off a super sexy retro vibe. In my favorite color, red, it's easy to see why. Satiny red shoes wrapped in black trim and bow accents that have a sweet rounded toe and a perfectly sculpted heel. Whether you favour the pump version or the more elaborate T-Strap Mary Janes, the Kurvy shoes are an instant classic!


I paired mine with the recent releases from Ingenue, the Secretary Skirt in Ebon and Stenno Blouse in Ruby. The Secretary skirt can be worn a number of ways, with or without the peplum attachments (there are 2 options), a fantastic high waisted pencil skirt. The Stenno Blouse is a perfect partner to the skirt, I love the sculpted cuffs that are perfectly shaped, and the pretty prim collar.

Look for these Kurvy Shoes at Nardcotix.

StyleCard: LeLutka Chloe Ankle Boots


Minnu Palen's recent footwear release, the Chloe Ankle Boot, is one of my favorite ankle boots so far this season. Simply put, I have always been a sucker for detail, and with every release from the LeLutka collection I see more and more of the eye catching detail and sense of style that a shoe lover finds hard to resist. The boots are great high heeled ankle booties, that combine rhinestone trim and even a teeny LeLutka zipper pull, to make them all sorts of fantastic. Look for these at LeLutka in multiple colors including solids and delicious tone on tone brights.


The Stuff;

Shoes: LeLutka, Chloe Ankle Boots, Black.

Skin: Gala Phoenix, Sundust FREX, Dark, Doe 1.

Hair: Lamb, Say, Butterfinger.

Dress: Madsy, Anna MiniDress, Black.
