The
name doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. Kork-Ease? Sounds like a new wine closure not a new shoe but Neiman Marcus
and Bergdorf's are flogging this latest retro shoe that is available exclusively online through the two stores. It has
a suede-covered wedge heel, crisscross upper, buckled strap and golden hardware. The
shoe sells for $175 but I could probably unearth a similar pair myself in the back of my mother's closet. I
love a good wedge, like those Prada platform

Manolo Blahnik Raffia Buckled Mule
I love Manolo Blahnik's Raffia Buckled Mules. They are
feminine, sophisticated and classic. Made of metallic gold raffia, the golden buckle is detailed with coral stones for
a little flare and color. They would look amazing with great fitting pencil skirt, a girly top and some chunky bangles.
The heel measures at 2". Although a bit pricey, these will last for years. Price:
$630.
