Rue La La » shoe addiction http://www.ruelala.com/blog The (Style) Guide Tue, 18 Jun 2013 21:45:46 +0000 en-US hourly 1 Push the Envelope (Without Pushing It) http://www.ruelala.com/blog/2012/11/27/push-envelope-without-pushing-it/ http://www.ruelala.com/blog/2012/11/27/push-envelope-without-pushing-it/#comments Tue, 27 Nov 2012 16:00:30 +0000 sstanley http://www.ruelala.com/blog/?p=31194 While a shoe addiction obviously needs zero justification, sometimes those not-totally-mainstream heels do – when worn during certain occasions.

And who is well-versed in operating outside the norm? None other than Betsey Johnson, of course. Using her sky-high stunners as guides (all plucked from our Betsey Johnson Boutique), here are three different ways to walk on the edge of the unexpected – while staying completely dress code–friendly.

 

Dominating the workplace. As long as that clean, classic shape is in place, you’re good. (So go wild with the color.)

Fulfilling that wedding invite. From barn venues to black ties, a super-femme, architectural heel like this one will always fit in.

Tickets to The Nutcracker. Metalheads, rejoice: Spikey studs totally count as festive attire.

Our Betsey Johnson Boutique opens Tuesday, November 27, at 11AM ET.
