The New Shoe-Ins

The shoe department at Saks Fifth Avenue has been given a total overhaul, a major upgrade and its own zip code (10022-shoe, naturally). Check out the gorgeous new decor, beautifully displaying an enhanced selection including Azzedine Alaia, YSL, Derek Lam, Chanel, Prada, Sergio Rossi, a Roger Vivier in-store boutique, a Charbonnel et Walker cafe and an in-store shoe repair outlet.

Downtown, Plaza Too has added a second Manhattan location (and a ninth location in the greater New York area) with a new spot on Hudson Street, in the heart of the West Village. This multi-brand location stocks easy styles from Tory Burch and Jack Rogers, as well as trend-driven offerings from Givenchy and Calvin Klein. Plaza Too rounds out their accessories selection with Lauren Merkin, Gustto and L.A.M.B. bags and jewelry from , Alexis Bittar and Kenneth Jay Lane among others. When searching for the perfect shoe to compliment a new ensemble or particular dress, we recommend shopping in a store with a large selection and a multi-brand inventory - these two have just that.
