Trend Report: Faye

I'm of the belief that every woman needs a pair of stilettos. Nothing, nothing, makes your legs look leaner and your back look straighter than a pair of high heels. However, nothing, nothing, makes your feet hurt more. So stilettos are not your everyday attire. I only bring mine out when I know I will spend a solid portion of my night in a seated position, while people get me drinks and some tasty passed apps (if I'm nice, of course). That said, I'd like to introduce you to the Faye - a super sexy leather slide with a hint of a heel. This is the type of shoe you can wear all summer long, every day, and still look your most fashionable. It's a girl's best friend, in hot colors, glossy patents and complete with those shining gold accents. In fact, you may never want to see a strappy-stiletto-device again, and for that, your feet will thank you. Take a peek at how the sleek patent-white Faye works with summer's hot looks:
