The Ultimate Shoe Guide 2008

Bows

There’s something so pretty about a couple of loops of satin. (Also to die for? The price of Lela Rose's new line for Payless.) Look for bows in jumbo sizes or in slightly unexpected spots—on the back of a shoe or around the ankle—then love the way they update your go-to LBD.

Chunky Heels
Chanel walked these substantial heels down the runway with nearly every outfit in its fall collection, and we caught the drift. They’re a wardrobe workhorse, the shoes you’ll buckle up with everything from a mini and tights to wide-leg pants.
