Cushnie et Ochs at a Glance

Cushnie et Ochs was established in 2008 by Carlie Cushnie and Michelle Ochs. Since then it has become a staple for everyone from A-list celebrities to dignitaries like Michelle Obama. Whether it’s swimwear or tailoring, this brand dominates.

Cushnie et Ochs’ silhouette seamlessly combines femininity with edge. The use of bold colors and cutout designs highlight flattering aspects of every woman’s body while each design easily translates from runway to everyday wear.

Guiseppe Zanotti + Anja Rubik Cutout Suede Pumps

I’ve been a little shoe-obsessed for the past few months as I’m sure readers of our blog can tell! But these get my endorsement for best pumps of 2013. Even better, they’re currently on-sale at Net-a-Porter as one of the site’s biggest bargains with around $500 off.

Anja Rubik’s five piece capsule collection for Zannotti was inspired by her favorite musicians, David Bowie and Debbie Harry. The shoes feature only black leather and suede fabrics, stiletto heels, and gold metal detailing. These shoes may be simple but they have a wide appeal and can be paired with anything from an LBD to a YSL tuxedo!

Aquazzura Sloane Cutout Suede Sandals

Grey Suede

Red Suede

Black Suede

While looking for the perfect shoes to wear to a white party, I came across these. They’ve been spotted on the feet of many including Olivia Palermo and have become one of the season’s must have sandals. 

They pop in every color and accentuate every outfit. Their suede upper adds some extra texture and intrigue to these shoes as does their unique cutout and lace-up design. Essentially, these shoes are the perfect balance of simplicity and complexity. Hopefully soon to be on the feet of yours truly…
