Every woman needs a pair of black evening sandals in her closet. The universal and versatile, chic but not too distracting kind of pair. The caged Jimmy Choo sandals below are a great example of said sandals. They can be worn with almost everything in a woman’s wardrobe: the classic LBD, a pantsuit, jeans, leggings… you name it. What a lovely and flattering style, don’t you agree?

I’ve got to admit that I’m a bit surprised by the incredible popularity of the Brian Atwood Lola Pump, because it is bold shoe, to say the least. Yet Lola, and the peep-toe version Wiked, have been photographed on almost a dozen celebrities. No wonder why it’s now sold out.

If you had your eye on Brian Atwood’s no-longer-available Lola, the “Bandit” T-Strap Pump by N.Y.L.A. is an excellent alternative. And at $119.95, you can channel Katy’s femme fatale look or Megan’s rocker chic without an ounce of buyer’s remorse. Available in black leather or cheetah pony.

Just in case you haven’t noticed, right now hardware is hot. Studs and spikes are showing up on everything from jackets, to gloves, to footwear, and more. The Prada Studded Medium Tote is the grown-up way to rock this trend and not look like a rocker wanna-be. Gold and sliver studs beautifully outline this supple black leather tote, which is roomy enough to serve as a chic work carryall. Available in black, forest or brown.
