Leather Ankle Boots with Zip Detail
O.M.G! I am totally obsessed with these Leather Ankle Boots with Zip Detail by Azzedine Alaia. They are so drool worthy.
The boots are leather with a cut-out detail above the peep toe with zip detailing on the edge. Above this cut out detail there are three zip fastening details which you can leave open or closed. A zip fastening also sits at the back of the boot. The top of the boot finishes just above the ankle. The heel height measures at 5 inches.
Team with skinny denim and a blazer this coming season for chic downtown style like Leighton Meester below.

Azzedine Alaia Silver Studded Platform Shoes
Azzedine Alaia Silver Studded Platform Shoes, £1,120.00
Studs are definately the in thing as many designers have adopted and plastered this trend all over their shoes and bags.
These 6 inch platform pumps form Azzedine Alaia decked in silver studs, and I know studs are not everyone’s cup of tea, are quite pleasing to the eyes.
There is a toughness yet sexy appeal there and would work well for an evening look.
