Ellie Shoes
From LoveToKnow Shoes
If you're on the hunt for sexy footwear, look no further than Ellie Shoes. The wholesale company is responsible for creating some of the most eye-catching shoes on the market.
Adding Inches to Heels
Though wearing a heel any higher than four inches may send the wrong message, there are sometimes genuine reasons to wear mountainously high heels. Women may seek a pair of ultra-high platforms, pumps or boots for a costume party, a Halloween costume or as a gag gift for a friend.
It's possible they may very well just want to wear them for style reasons, too. It's not uncommon for something like, say, a thigh-high boot to enjoy its moment in the spotlight. Boldly colored pumps have also enjoyed popularity in recent years, thanks to the resurgence of 80s-influenced styles. Whatever your reason might be for seeking out a pair, you'll likely find just what you're looking for at Ellie Shoes.
About Ellie Shoes
The company specializes in footwear described specifically as "sexy shoes and sexy boots." If sexy is defined as spike heels, stilettos, pointy toes and glossy shine, then this company definitely delivers on its promise. The lineup includes the following items:
- Four-inch (and lower) heels
- Five-inch sandals and pumps
- Six-inch sandals and pumps
- Seven-inch sandals and pumps
- Eight-inch sandals and pumps
- Ankle boots
- Knee high boots
- Thigh high boots
- 1031 (a collection of tame one inch heel boots in men's sizes)
- Penthouse shoes
- Discontinued shoes
- Accessories (including anti-skid pads, decorative chains and disposable foot socks)
Clearly, the company's catalog is diverse, though the general focus is on the sexy factor. Despite that, certain styles are versatile enough to suit women who are comfortable enough wearing high heels yet don't necessarily want to tower above the crowd with anything unnaturally high.
The Celebrity Connection
The company receives accolades galore from the entertainment industry. Not only do the shoes appear in some of the industry's most popular magazines (including FHM and Maxim), they also appear on some of the world's most famous feet! Paris Hilton is a fan (a pair of Ellie heels was spotted in her massive shoe closet on E! Entertainment Television).
The shoes have also appeared on runways, most recently at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in October 2007. Despite the notion that the majority of the company's shoes are not exceptionally classy, the shoes shown on stage were elegant, polished and perfectly complemented the models' glamorous outfits.
What to Choose
The company's catalog is rather large, and there is truly something in the mix for any heel lover. If high heels aren't your thing, remember to keep in mind the collection of shoes with heels shorter than four inches.
- The surprisingly diminutive Juliet sandal boasts a three inch heel and a very practical design. Though not ideal workplace attire (you likely won't find much of that here), they would easily work well with a casual weekend outfit. Use them to dress up a basic jeans and t-shirt combination.
- Exotic dancers or strippers will flock to shoes like this Star sandal. Its eight-inch heel is more than just a way to add some serious height – it's also guaranteed to turn heads! A rhinestone star embellishment decorates the side of the shoe.
- Knee high boots are a fashion-forward option when the weather cools down. These Viking boots lace up and finish with fur trim around the opening. Surprisingly modest, these shoes fall under the "understated sexy" category. It just proves that a woman doesn't have to go overboard or reveal too much of anything in order to look alluring.
- There are even sexy Cowgirl boots on the menu! These authentic looking boots have an easygoing Western-style flair and are available in simple shades of black and light brown. The four-inch heel adds some height, but doesn't take away from the shoe's playful personality.
- The adorable Paige heel will appeal to any woman whose inner girly-girl is just itching to escape. Awash in a smattering of polka dots, the shoes feature a charming little bow over the peep-toe. With their vintage feel, these shoes are the perfect partner for a slim black pencil skirt and a dainty blouse. Be sure you can handle four-and-a-half-inch heels, though!
