Naturalizer Fall/Winter 2012 Collection

When your hear the word "Naturalizer", what comes into mind? For me, it's stylish yet unbelievably comfortable shoes! It's only with this brand that I get to wear heels all day and still have happy feet - no complaints whatsoever. Way back in the early 1920s, women wore men's shoes because no one ever thought of making shoes for ladies! It was in 1927 that Naturalizer became a pioneer of creating "the shoes with the beautiful fit" - a line of shoes that are made just for women. And every woman seemed to love this idea, hence the existence of Naturalizer for 85 years and counting.

Ms. Erika E. Szychowski, the Global Brand Marketing Head of Brown Shoe Company Inc., together with Retail Specialist Inc., gave a press briefing to the media on Naturalizer's Fall/Winter 2012 Collection.

Naturalizer's Fall/Winter 2012 Collection has 2 key looks:

The British Are Coming:

Gaining ground since the Royal Wedding, this trend takes cues from the swinging London subculture of the 70’s, timeless country classics are re-interpreted in a modern street-fashion way. Trend elements include traditional prints, tassels, and sturdy block heels. Wear this trend’s rural countryside style with tartan or plaids and stylish loafers.

Hadden

Lerato

Vision

Launch Pad:

As space flight becomes a reality for everyone, get ready for fashion to project into space-aged futurism. Trend elements include clean, simple lines updated with techno textiles, leathers and color blocking that take this look to “infinity and beyond”. Wear this trend with modern, sleek dresses with high-shine patent heels or skinny cropped pants; reflecting how “form follows function” is both simple and beautiful.

Comfort is a core essential to the Naturalizer brand heritage. The N5 comfort inside every design (extra cushioning, breathable linings, belanced heel to toe, flexible soles, and lightweight materials) all work together to keep you in balance and feeling fabulous wherever life takes you.

Great shoes can take you to great places. Each pair of Naturalizer's shoes are worth the investment for the comfort and style they give. These shoes can take you from day to night, and from work to weekend! Here are more styles that are currently in store. Naturalizer carries only 1 pair per size, so if you find that one pair of shoes that define your style and fit you perfectly, better grab it at once before someone else does!

I loved heels in netural, silvery-gray colors, so these 2 were my top picks!

After much deliberation, I ended up taking home Katrina because it looked better on my feet. (Kassidy was more comfy though.) The Katrina dress pumps (P3,990.00) from Naturalizer create a look that is timeless and sophisticated.

Katrina features:
• Faux-leather upper in a dress T-strap pump style with a round, open toe
• T-strap vamp design
• Adjustable instep strap with buckle detail
• Cutout details at the toe and heel
• Smooth lining, cushioning insole features N5 Comfort System
• 3/4 inch cork platform midsole
• Non-slip outsole, 2 3/4 inch heel
• 3 1/2 inch total heel height

I love how Katrina is so versatile - it goes so well with any of my work outfits, and yet I can also wear it during weekends with more casual ensembles.
