How to shoe your love this Christmas

The weather is cool and the holiday season is here. Figlia and Marie Nicole express the right to femininity with sexy, subtly provocative collection of wow shoes with a soft and dreamy style.

Long snip pointy to round toe shapes are comfortable, curving, ergonomic, with lines poised between sensuousness and comfort "enveloping" styles of soft boots, court shoes, sling-backs, sandals and wrap-around ankle straps.

Heels are high, generally thin, but also wide and streamlined, covered, low with geometric or asymmetric shapes. Materials are lamb, kid, suede, nappa, padded fabrics, quilted, satin leathers with embroidery, beading and thin straps, bands, sparkling shimmers and flashes of decorative stones detailing.

Colors are tans, browns, blacks, blues, pinks, whites and half-tones. The quality of materials and workmanship assume new importance. The styles incorporate craft skills from other cultures, a pursuit of excellence, authenticity, genuine art traditions other than ethnic folklore.

Figlia is available in all SM Shoemart. Marie Nicole is available in Landmark Makati; Robinsons Galleria, Ermita and Bacolod; Gaisano Metro Cebu; New Shoes Boutique; Fairmart Cubao; Nepo Mall Dagupan; and The Shoe Gallery Marikina Riverbanks Mall.
