How to Measure Heel Height
Posted on May 1, 2012 | No CommentsHEY! ShoeLady! I just bought three pair of the Silk by Bella Vita, three different colors. The DesignerShoes.com website says Silk has a heel height of 2.25 inches. I measured it at 4 inches! What’s going on here?!? Vanessa, Tennessee Dear Vanessa, Vanessa - I understand you are concerned that the heel height on the “Silk” espadrille by Bella Vita is different than what is shown on the website? The website says 2.25 inches. I took my ruler to the warehouse and measured the shoe. It is 2.25 inches. Heel height is measured by holding the ruler in the center... -

Patent Leather after Labor Day?
Posted on December 8, 2011 | No CommentsDear Shoe Lady, Can patent leather be worn after labor day? Or would a flat leather alligator/snake pattered leather be more versatile? Dear Martha, Years ago, patent leather was a spring and summer staple, but nowadays, it’s uber-trendy to wear in the fall and winter. One good rule of thumb is the style/color should be appropriate to the season. Dark colors like purple, navy, black, maroon and grey are fashionable this winter. Comfortable shoe with a 2.5 inch heel suitable for work or paired with a dark jean. Or try a crinkled patent leather with a pop of color to... -

Posted on October 5, 2011 | No CommentsDear Shoe Lady, I’ve got a red knee length Karen Millen dress and want to know what color shoes are best to go with it. I have worn it for a wedding and wore silver shoes and silver bag but was wondering if nude shoes would go? Black looked too hard and red seem too much. What do you think?
