Get Ready for Fall the DKNY Way
Start your engines. NY Fashion Week starts in less than NINE weeks, and we at I Heart Heels absolutely cannot wait (really, that’s why we’re thumbing through DKNY runway images on a Saturday night drooling over the accessories…sad, but so true.)! It’s only July, but fall will be here before you can bat your pretty, black lashes (the sale racks are already packed with summer, so you know those tweeds and wools are so very, very near!).
pureDKNY swept me off my feet once I purchased my silk hot pink dress a couple of summers ago, and I haven’t looked back. I wear that dress every summer – to the beach…to dinner…to bridal showers. So I just had to peek at what’s in store this fall – and you’re going to love it. This look above is by far my favorite. Yes, sweater dresses and cowl necks will still be in and I couldn’t be happier. Add tights and amazing booties (which will also still be in style) and it’s so chic.
DKNY showed an amazing fall collection in February (check out the garnet dress above – I’m fainting), and as always, the shoes couldn’t get any better. I found a couple as I was browsing the collections and, as usual, black stood out. The first is from the DKNYC line, a slightly less expensive version of the runway, yet still “inspired by the energy of New York.” These shoes are the most inspiring way of updating the basic black heel because I love the cross straps in the front – they look both fun and functional. But perhaps my favorite heel of the entire season is this lace-up bootie with sick metal hardware – aren’t you just mesmerized? I think I could stare at these for hours! These must be on my feet come Fashion Week…ouch, well to the after-parties, perhaps?
