24 SHOO

I remember a couple of years ago, I was looking at a model wearing these beautiful shoes and I asked her where she got them from, she said 24!  I went to the store and was just in awe, these shoes were like a work of art, something you would want to just set out and look at, just so stunning.  I bought a pair and learned how to use Viewer 2 just so I could wear them!  I just recently was reintroduced to 2408 Alekseev by my friend BridgetMarlane and her new designs are so incredible, and she is the sweetest lady, great customer service and she obviously loves what she does because it really shows in her designs!   I will be doing a series of posts on 24 Shoo, my friends, these shoes are a must must have!  There are so many skin choices, nail color choices, the quality is impeccable, the styles are original and to die for!  And my girlfriends the words we all love to hear.... I was there last night and she has a 50 - 70% off sale!!!!!!! yes you heard me right a SHOE SALE!!!!  RUN!  Before I buy them all!

THIS IS THE NEW MAIN STORE FOR 24 SHOO

24'S WOW! NO. 7 RUBIES ON GOLD

I had to start with these, look at the detail!  They are so very sexy!  The long slim heel, the open toe, the beautiful design of spun gold accented with rubies, I love how the foot arches and looks so stunning!


The toe polish is Divine, there are so many colors to choose from, and I love the skin coloring, just like RL 24 has blended skin tones with pink on the bottom for a realistic look.


This is the final look I put together, my eyes are just drawn from the shoes up and back down, look at how incredible these shoes look!  I styled with a fabulous cocktail dress from Swans, available at Shey, beautiful jewelry from Purplemoon and my favorite updo from Lamb.  You know they are great shoes when you put them on and build an outfit around them!


24'S WOW NO. 26 WHITE

These are so sexy!  I love the sheer white silk wrap and tie around the calves, and the open toe, these make your legs and feet look like they are gift wrapped!  I love how they drape perfectly on the calves, so lovely!


The fit on the foot is so lovely, again the skinny, sexy heel, the beautiful painted toe colors and the bottom of the shoe design is so unique!  The come in several colors and with two styles this one and a Betty Boop version, which I have worn in my next set of pictures.



This is one of my favorite casual dresses and now I have the most beautiful shoes to wear that complete the dress!  These shoes could be worn with such a vast variety of styles, lengths.  They are so sublime and really do draw the eye down and command attention!  I styled with a dress from Serenade, a pearl bracelet from Alienbear and hair from Exile. 


24'S WOW! NO. 32 BLACK

Look at the intricate design, really they are like a sculpture, so so perfect,  the heel starts think and goes so thin, the sculpted bottom, the diamond accents all around the foot and ankle.


They look so lovely from every angle, giving you such an air of confidence, beauty!  No. 32 also comes in a variety of colors and could be worn with anything to add that last burst of flare and elegance.  I am wearing the Betty Boop version.



Again, I put on the shoes and built an outfit around them.  I styled with a lace dress from My Precious Agnes, Jewelry from Purplemoon and hair from Analog Dog.  Everything just falls perfectly into place around these fabulous shoes!
