Platformers - more than meets the eye!

I'm so excited to introduce to you guest blogger Socialite who just had to put in her two cents about her favourite shoe trend. Enjoy!

SO!

Let’s talk about these fab platforms that are out and about the place with a vengeance. Yeahhhhh Yeahhhhh we’ve heard the warnings from the back doctors n such, but lets face it they rock our worlds and beyond.

Seriously have you seen a woman’s calves in these things, FIERCE! Think about it (I mean even VS did with their flippy flop work out shoe thingie) these things give you an unbelievable leg workout; it’s like going to the gym without a gym AND in amazing shoes… We all win!

Amazing with skirts and the UBER fab skinny jeans (**Cough… white is the new colour of choice** cough), these shoes make me smile

Note from StepUp: I have compiled a lookbook of the hottest, sexiest, insanely expensive platforms for you to peruse. If you have a SERIOUS shoe fetish, this may be NSFW lol.(Notice Beyonce's look above will set you back a cool $928 USD and that's just starting at the feet! Eva Diva not backward herself with her $878.95 Zanottis! I hope she ask for her 5 cents change!) However to my Trini friends who think I am not able to do my 6 times table, fear not! Madame Socialite tells me that if you look very hard, you can find very funky fashionable platforms in Trinidad, specifically in establishment's that have the owner's pic in each store (hint, hint).

And if you hurry, you can make it there before their 50% off sale is over.

That's all I'm sayin! :)

TIDBITS:

1. Yeah, we want an answer to this question TOO, Fashion Industry.

2. Beyonce: "I don't know if I'm fashion obsessed." I get all my shit for free!

Be-WEAVE It!

Last week’s biggest celebrity story was Oprah’s emphatic declaration that she does not wear a weave! I’m sure that after seeing this spring’s basket-weave themed items, she will be making a public retraction!




For those of us who don't have $2150 to put INSIDE a clutch far less to SPEND ON one... I have provided some equally fabulous, yet much cheaper woven options for you to feast your eyes upon. Even better, these items will be available for sale in Trinidad very soon along with many other affordable fashion forward pieces.


(Click image to see more detail.) Send an email to stepuptrinistyle@gmail.com for more information including prices and sizing. Also, if you would like me to do more research into this trend and provide items to you I would be glad to! Spread the word!

Extras: 1. No Rhi Rhi! We do not under any circumstances wave a rag. Not even you fierce enough to pull that one off!
2. The things that are newsworthy in the Caribbean lol...
