Calvin Klein Alex Heel

You might remember my little shoe emergency that happened before the When Tommy Met Anna event.  If not, the short story is that I needed to buy new shoes.  Those new shoes are the Calvin Klein Alex Heel from The Bay..  I wanted some basic and black but it had to give me height.  These  platforms fit the bill and they are different from any shoe I have in my closet.  The heel is 5″ with a 1″ double platform.  I predict these will see a lot of wear this summer.

Ever dreamed of being in an editor’s shoes? Well, try them on! Created in collaboration with FLARE magazine’s wickedly stylish fashion director, Liz Cabral, this style takes spring’s hottest trends in stride. With naturally sexy python, the sleekest wedge and a flash of fluoro orange, it’s a brilliantly of-the-now shoe for style whizzes like you!

The shoes looked really good in person. I heard many people say they were comfortable.

It was hilarious seeing how many people were wearing the shoes in the store.  They were like an army.
