Silly Name, Sexy Styles

It’s a new season, and like most of my fellow fashionistas that have a little shoe addiction, I try to be vigilant about constantly being on the lookout for new shoe styles and brands. A good fashionista not only stays on top of current events and information in the fashion world, but also passes this information on.

 One shoe brand to check out this fall is Schutz Shoes. The name Schutz is definitely a bit curious for the fashion world, so I Googled the name to find out a bit more about the brand. My thought was it must simply be the name of the designer or company that makes the shoes, but I was wrong. Schutz is a German word that means “protection.”

The company’s story is actually quite interesting. Schutz shoes were originally boots for men. When women began to admire the shoes, the line expanded to include high quality women’s footwear. Maybe it’s the fact that Schutz shoes are manufactured in Brazil that gives them their sex appeal and fashion sense. This brand embodies the vibrant spirit of Rio de Janeiro with fashion-forward silhouettes and bold colors. If you’re a fan of this season’s hot color blocking trend, you will love Schutz.

Schutz shoes bring fashion trends and innovative design together under the direction of Alexandre Birman, and they have a wide variety of separate design lines that will suit just about any taste and occasion. Each line is geared toward a type of shoe that ranges from casual to formal.

There are classic 9-to-5 pumps in patent leather, snakeskin, and fabrics for the working girl. There are fun strappy wedges and heels for hitting the town, and several styles of comfortable flats. I am sure you won’t have any problem picking out a pair or two from this brand to work into your fall wardrobe. If you’re on shopping restriction and are trying to hold off making any purchases at the moment, keep an eye on Schutz shoes, as there are several clogs and booties that will be perfect as we move further into the season.
