It is hard to believe that the time of year has already to come to talk about Fall! But quite honestly there is no other season that compares to the release of the Fall lines. There are handbags, coats, sweaters, scarves, and many other amazing layering pieces to drool over. And I for one am not going to forget about the best part of Fall, the SHOES!!!

I must confess that my heart skips a beat when I see those first boots hitting the shelves. But today I think I will feature a mary jane in one of my favorite Fall trends - purple! That's right, purple is hot for Fall this year. In fact so many of Fall's colors are leaning to the colder end of the spectrum. It is such a fun change of pace to all the warmer, sometimes more neutral color that we see this time of year.

This week's gorgeous shoe is from the London based company Jimmy Choo. You may or many not know that the company was founded in 1996 by a British Vogue accessories editor and former model, Tamara Mellon, and couture shoe designer, Jimmy Choo. In 2001 Jimmy Choo's 50% ownership of the business was bought and he now concentrates on an exclusive line of couture shoes under licensing from Jimmy Choo Ltd. This is available, by appointment only, off of Oxford St in London.

Ok, and on with the shoes:



So perfectly demure, so perfectly plum, so perfectly perfect!!! These jewel-toned gems were found at Bergdorf Goodman's.
