I recently had the pleasure of meeting Derek J, hair stylist extraordinaire. and owner of the J Spot Salon in Atlanta, Georgia. Many of you may know him from the Housewives of Atlanta or Bravo TV’s Fashion Queens show.
When Derek and I met our conversation quickly turned to shoes. If you’ve seen Derek J on television you know how much he loves a fab pair of heels. He wears a size 11 in women’s shoes and his feet are wide. Tallistas, with wider feet this post is definitely for you.
Derek J’s Top Shoe Picks:
I. Manolo Blahnik – up to size 12 (can special order up to size 12 (43))
II. Nine West – up to size 12
III. Stuart Weitzman – up to size 12
IV. Sam Edelman – up to size 13
V. Zevallos Shoes – up to size 14/15 (all shoes made to order)
Derek also shared a few tips that you may find helpful.
– Your shoes can be fabulous despite the price point
– Buy leather for the stretch
Bonus:
6’2″ Tallista Lori H. wore a fabulous Stuart Weitzman red pump to the Jazz Institute of Chicago gala this past Wednesday, October 21, 2015. She wears a size 12.
The exact pump is no longer available. Here is a link to the red pumps Stuart Weitzman currently has online.
