Mallory Musante Shoes

On Wednesday night, I attended the Shoe and Tell - Mallory Musante press preview/trunk show held at a boutique called Ruia. Guests were able to view her two collections, one for the fall, and my personal favorite - her bridal collection. Shown above is her bridal collection; the color palette was a lot softer with lighter colors. Mallory hand paints each of them herself! When I was younger, I used to make designs on my sneakers with markers - but these are just incredible! If I weren't told that these were painted, I would have thought they were an already made print design. The colors are also customizable, which is definitely great for those brides who want their bridesmaids' shoes to go with their dresses. Her shoes are all platform heels (measuring about 4"), but she does offer sexy kitten heels for those women who want to be more comfortable.

Below are two closeups. One has a marble-like design and the other is more tribal-themed. She uses special paint that won't wash off or chip ever!

Her fall collection, shown below, definitely had more of a darker palette with pops of bold colors. Though, you can still see the same aesthetic of the painting on the shoes.

The event was hosted by celebrity stylist, Yannique Joseph. Check out her amazing vintage sequined jacket!

There were delicious mini cupcakes to sample along with wine & champagne. There was also Skinny Water to try (which I think tastes just as great as Vitamin Water) and Food Should Taste Good corn/tortilla chips for guests to enjoy while looking at both collections.
By the way, I decided to stop auto-play on my playlist. I realized it bothers some of you readers so sorry about that! :) Though, I'd like to remind you all that I have a new song posted each time I update & I haven't repeated one since! But I'd like to know, do you like it better with or without the music auto-playing on my blog?
