Designer Shoe Giveaway

If you asked me what my weakness is, I’d most definitely tell you shoes. Don’t get me wrong – a great handbag is always going to be on my wishlist but colours, textures and styles seem to come and go but a fabulous pump or classic flat can be worn for years and live as a true staple in your wardrobe.

Whether it’s designer shoe-shopping or even searching out those hard to find styles, trying to get your hands on a pair in Canada has always been a bit of a struggle for us Northern gals. Either the inventory is limited, styles aren’t available or the duties charged for importing can make the same pair of shoes almost double in cost – yikes! When I came across the site, The September, a few years back, I instantly fell in love.

A curated collection of shoe brands ranging from Jimmy Choo to Aquazzura to Adidas and an impressive handbag and jewelry collection, it truly has a little something something for everyone. A brand I’ve been trying to get my hands on forever – Alexandre Birman – recently got stocked and I was desperate to get my hands on a pair. From the block heel to the bow details across the front – this is a total Krystin shoe. I was tempted by the intricate design of this Clarita pair or even opting for a more classic tone like this black pair but in the end, I opted for my go-to classic: a nude pair.  No longer reserved for summer, a nude pair of heels can be worn year round, compliment a printed dress like shown above or stand alone with a great little white dress or suit. I also adore the block heel on these pumps. Though the heel height is tall, this helps make them *more* comfortable for a night out and the double bows also assist in the comfort factor.

While I haven’t been yet, the September Townhouse is another spot worth making a note of during your next shopping trip to Toronto. Boasting a curated collection from the brand, you can make an appointment in advance to shop your favourite styles and try on new ones in the most STUNNING setting.

If I haven’t got you adding to your wish list yet, I’m about to sweeten the deal. The lovely team at The September was so kind to offer a $250 gift card in celebration of their 5th anniversary to one lucky winner and all you have to do is sign up for their e-newsletter here. The contest is open till September 30th and I’ll be randomly selecting the winner on October 1st and announcing it on Instagram.
