Shireen on the Scene: Manolo Blahnik
Archived Reports:
Manolo Blahnik has been a luxury, classic shoe since the late 60's and became uber popular in the late 90's because of the hit TV show "Sex and the City". Now in 2012 Manolo's are a household name. And they're even making a home here in Miami with an exclusive new line.
Go ahead say it "Hello Lovah" Sarah Jessica Parker made Manolo Blahniks famous on "Sex and the City".
GEORGE: "She brought a younger attitude to the brand."
But now, Manolo's are for the masses.
MANOLO: "It's awesome that the celebrities wear them and all that, but I think it's the way a shoe makes you feel."
Even shoe guru, and Manolo Prez, George Malkemus says Manolo's are simply.
MANOLO: "The best shoes in the world."
Because they're cool, comfortable & classic.
GEORGE: "Miami women are the most fit in the world probably."
Shireen: "And sexiest, and charming."
GEORGE: "Yeah, yeah, yea I was going to add that."
Did I mention major toe clevage? Hmmm toe-totally terrific.
MANOLO: "I like the one that costs $2,500."
George was a shoe-in at Saks Bal Harbour.
GEORGE: "It's a timeless elegant shoe."
As he unveiled a new exclusive line of Manolo's perfect for the Miami woman
Rosa Cordero: "George said that I represent the cork shoe, he says he imagines me popping like a cork out of a wine bottle."
Shireen "You need a hair toss after that"
Manolo's motto? Oncentrate on...
George: "The total beauty of a woman."
Like a moth to a flame: I liked the brighest pair on this side of the Mississippi.
MANOLO: "A lot of them are lots of color, but there are lots of nudes."
Oh Manolo, you make shoe shopping magnificent.
GEORGE: "They are very sexy and very simple."
And that's the beauty of the shoe and every woman is worth it.
A lil side story George told me, when Sarah Jessica Parker bought her first couple pairs of Manolo's, before she was a big star she actually put them on layaway paid them off and years later would make the brand a superstar itself.
Manolo's start around $500 and are available at Saks.
