Christmas Wishlist: Strut 24 Shoes

Last December South African wife and mother, Yasmeen Bhamjee Moosa had a great idea. Like most of us, she loved shoes so, having given up work as an attorney, she decided to embark on her passion to manufacture limited quality footwear in accordance with the latest European trends. Today, she's opened online store Strut 24 for the woman who's on trend but is looking for something unique.

"The name Strut is synonymous with leaving an impression, making a mark so to speak and 24 is personal in that it's my birthdate but also because of the online store, it allows one to shop 24 hours of the day and in turn suggests that Strut shoes are amazing enough to be worn for 24 hours of the day!"

All of the styles are named after the women in her family who have supported her on her journey to realise her dream and only 12 pairs are made per style so girls can be sure they're getting something exclusive. I just found Yasmeen's story so inspiring and her shoes are awesome. Sisters are doin' it for themselves! The nude heel with gold detail is going on my Christmas list for sure. Psst, boyfriend...

Check out Strut 24 to see all the styles, I think there are some great investment pieces. They also deliver nationally via courier for free. I can't wait to see how this brand grows, they're aiming to expand to handbags and belts for next season.

Nine West's Pretty Little Preview

Nine West recently presented their new collection for Spring/Summer 14 and it's poppin! Brights, sorbets, snakeskin, metallic, florals and nautical footwear put a smile on my face because summer cannot come any sooner. I don't know about you but I'm tired of boots and longing for strappier styles. Nine West has it sorted with an array of trends to choose from. The event was delightful and I got to catch up with the girls while getting pedicures and restraining myself from eating every single dessert. I love the printed bags especially the chic Strelitzia clutch since it just screams South Africa to me but the new bag I got was the perfect size to store a blogger's best friend (giant camera) and has served me well already. This is going to be a very busy few months, I can't wait.

PUMA X SHELFLIFE

So what do you think of these pumped up kicks? Earlier this month I attended the PUMA x Shelflife launch. I'm always excited for PUMA events because they go an extra mile in offering interactive entertainment and this one was no different. PUMA and Shelflife let guests enjoy tagging a 3D train, DJs, an open bar and even shriiipming (graffiti on girls). You can play all you want with paint rollers and gas masks while wearing a sequin fanny pack and no one kindly asks you to refrain from touching things even though you look a bit deranged. That's my kinda party.

So PUMA and sneaker, streetwear and graffiti store Shelflife unveiled their first collaborative footwear range of men’s and ladies sneakers at the launch. The collection includes a Suede Mid and Suede Lo style in both the men’s (Train Runner) and women’s (Laces and Ladies) sneakers.The PUMA x Shelflife Suede men’s collection is influenced by the colours and styling of the South African transit system and the graffiti featured on box-cars giving us details of paint dripping formstripes, two colour-lacing and hangtags featuring the South African Metro Map in the shape of the African continent.

I think it's a great concept and appreciate the unique South African flavour. If you're interested, you can check out Shelflife to order a pair.
