Celebrity Style TheNarrowShoe.com Way: Steal the Style!

The Look in Narrow: Mila Kunis - Remember that television show “The Look for Less,” which recreated a high-end look at a low-end price?  We thought we’d create our own variation on that theme in our newest blog category:  Celebrity Style the Narrow Shoe Way-The Look in Narrow.   With the help of our new sister blog, called  Celebrity Style the Narrow Shoe Way, this  new “look in narrow”  is all about finding celebrity style  inspiration from the  narrow shoes on up. Now, not only can we show you our picks for narrow width shoe alternatives to the shoes the celebs wear (which, of course typically aren’t narrow), we can inspire you with a lower-end alternative to their stylish outfits, as well.

 

The Look in Narrow – Mila Kunis

Mila Kunis Premiere

HOLLYWOOD, CA – FEBRUARY 13: Actress Mila Kunis arrives for the world premiere of Walt Disney Pictures’ “Oz The Great And Powerful.”

Mila Kunis looked elegant on the yellow brick road as she posed for photographers before the Premiere Of Walt Disney Pictures’ “Oz The Great And Powerful” premiere. She wore an ecru Dolce and Gabbana flared skirt dress along with a beautiful pair of silver Christian Louboutin satin peep-toes with bow accent. An updo complemented beautiful purple Sutra statement drop earrings.

Our celebrity style the narrow shoe way look includes an off the rack Dolce and Gabbana Convertable Floral Print Dress with a similar siloutte and a high price ($8,775–we haven’t found a lower priced dress yet that compares, but when we do we’ll update this post!), which we would pair with shoes from Stuart Weitzman’s evening collection.

Though the Marimbow has a differently shaped bow, we think it adds just the right touch to the outfit.  By clicking on the image of the Marimbo to the left, you can get information about these shoes or chose a plain peep-toe like the ones the model wears.  Similarly, if you’re looking for a special dress, you can get information about this  Dolce and Gabbana Convertable Floral Print Dress by clicking on the blue link and search for more lovely dresses at neimanmarcus.com, as well.

 

 

The Look in Narrow: Camilla Belle

While the U.S. Open men’s final was suspended on Monday due to gloomy weather, Camilla Belle’s white floral dress, accessories and shoes were anything but!  Her crisp and summery looking white floral dress, paired with the rich brown tones in her belt and bag and cute red ballet flats blended fabulously for a delightful early autumn day.  How would we re-create her style the narrow shoe way?  By adding adorable red ballet flats in our narrow width, of course!

The sweet pleat at the toe and smooth lining with cushioning featuring the Naturalizer N5 Comfort System will make this a ballet flat you’ll want to wear a day long. The non-slip outsole and half inch heel will make it a go-toe shoe for an outfit like this, your favorite neutral colored trousers, jeans and skirts, too!

The Look in Narrow:  Matt Lauer 

We like Matt Lauer here at  TheNarrowShoe.com.  We think he’s great on the Today Show,  he has a great style sense and we think he might be “one of us,” a person who wears a narrow shoe width!   Look at these pics and you might just agree.   We’ve read that Zegna is his clothing designer.  If he has as much trouble buying shoes as we do, Zegna might design his shoes for him, too.  However,  if he were to buy shoes from our site, here’s what we’d suggest for him!

04/24/12: Journalist Matt Lauer attends the TIME 100 Gala celebrating TIME’S 100 Most Influential People in the World list party at the Time Warner Center in New York.

Pictured here in an elegant black suit and black oxfords (instead of the brown one’s he favors on the show) here’s what we’d choose for him:

Allen-Edmonds - Park Avenue (Black Custom Calf) - Footwear Allen-Edmonds – Park Avenue (Black Custom Calf) – FootwearThe Allen-Edmonds – Park Avenue (Black Custom Calf) – Footwear: Subtle yet striking six-eyelet cap-toe balmoral. ; Features full leather linings. ; Lightly padded footbed for added comfort. ; Single oak leather sole and custom heel. ; Experience true style luxury with the addition of this Allen-Edmonds belt: ; Weight: 1 lb 1 oz ; Product measurements were taken using size 8.5. Please note that measurements may vary by size.  Available in 3A, A & B widths!


We can’t say enough about the Park Avenue because it’s available in 3A, A and B widths for men!

 

 

At the Today 60th Anniversary Show Celebration on January 13, 2012, Matt, Ann, Natalie and Al posed together.  Matt and Al seem to have the same signature style dark suits with brown oxfords.

We love the Park Avenue above in brown, too. You can find it at Zappos.com and you can find it along with even more brown and black oxfords in AAA (3A), AA (2A), A and B at Allen Edmonds Men’s Shoes.  In fact, right now, they’re celebrating their 90th anniversary with a sale!  Don’t wait, Matt, it ends Monday, April 30, 2012!

On the set with Savannah Guthrie during the Summer,  Matt wore white Bucks.   We couldn’t find a square-toed buck but we like these just as well.  We hope Matt would like them, too!

Here’s a pic of Matt wearing his signature brown oxfords with and his wife.  It looks like the shoes she’s wearing might be a little wide for her!  Maybe she need a narrow width too?   We’re happy to make some recommendations!

 

Red Carpet Narrow Shoe Look – Octavia Spencer’s  Todashi Shoji Dress & Narrow Peep-Toe Pumps

According to InStyle magazine, the customized hand-beaded, ivory silk tulle Tadashi Shoji gown, worn by the award winning actress,  took 1,000 hours of work, a team of 10, and six fittings to get the gown to the red carpet.   Wow!  For our celebrity look the narrowshoe.com way we chose this ready-to-wear Todashi Shoji dress.

 

Vaneli - Madora (Gold Satin) - Footwear We’d complete the look with the Vaneli Madora, a narrow width peep-toe pump available in 2A (AA), 3A (AAA) and 4A (AAAA).   Click on the pump to buy direct!

The Artist actress Berenice Bejo posed on the red carpet prior to the Oscar Awards on Sunday, February 27, 2012,  in an elegant mint green Elie Saab gown with delicate beading and sheer panels.  She accessorized with a matching clutch bag and dazzling earrings.  If we were dressing Berenice, we’d complete her outfit with Stuart Weitzman’s Girly Pump in Gold Leather available in our narrow width!

Inspired by Berenice Bejo’s elegant gown, we chose these long and short strapless J. Crew Dresses along with the shorter Donna Morgan strapless dress for our Celebrity Style the Narrow Shoe.com Way.  We enjoyed adding jewelry as well.

We think the VANELi Karisma in Silver in narrow would look great with the J. Crew dresses to the left in the darker mint color.

We also love the Karisma in Gold (Platino) and think it would look great with the Donna Morgan Dress on the right.  When you click on the Buy button, you’ll see all the colors this great sandal is available in.  Stuart Weitzman’s Girly Pumps would also look great with the Donna Morgan dress, as the gold tones in each of these beautiful narrow shoes would compliment the lighter mint shade.

The Look in Narrow: Blake Lively’s Animal Print Pumps

NEW YORK, NY – JANUARY 26: Actress Blake Lively and designer Jason Wu attend Jason Wu For Target Private Launch Event at Skylight SOHO in New York. Gossip Girl actress Blake Lively wore a cream and black shift dress with ruffle at the waist from the designer’s Spring 2012 collection (see a pink and white version on our sister blog ). Statement jewelry pieces, including salmon colored earrings along with Christian Louboutin leopard print pumps completed the look.

Fitzwell - Vincent (Animal Fabric) - FootwearAvailable in only in medium and a bit higher in price point than we’d like to go, we’ve reinterpreted the her look starting, of course, from the narrow pumps on up!   Our narrow shoe pick would be this great leopard print pump (click on the shoe to learn more about it).   It’s narrow, cute, rated really well and as of the writing of this post, currently on sale for $67.99!   See the rest of our reinterpretation of Lively’s look here on our sister blog.

The Look in Narrow: Kate Middleton’s Boots

The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton and Prince William traveled to Denmark, earlier this month, to attend a UNICEF East Africa Crisis event. They were hosted by Denmark’s Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary (pictured here to Kate’s right).

TheDuchess wore red LK Bennett Coat with a Vecceli Italy Belt and Stuart Weitzman for The Cool People Zipkin knee high boots, for the event. Unfortunately, they aren’t available in our narrow width!

While we were crushed they weren’t narrow, we were happy to find another Stuart Weitzman boot that is available in narrow for our “Look in Narrow,” that a we think is an equally nice alternative!

Stuart Weitzman - Demi (Black Suede) - Footwear Our narrow width pick is the Stuart Weitzman Demi!  Both pairs of boots have a ¾” inch platform. The Demi’s heel is 3 ½ inches and is a pull-on with stretch fabric added to the upper. The stretch fabric may actually hug the leg better (the the Zipkin’s heel is a bit higher at 4 1/2 inches and it has a side zipper). Reviews on on the fit and comfort of the Demi and the fit around the calf have been great!

While we haven’t, as of yet, identified what Princess Mary wore to the event, we’ll let you know as soon as we do!  In the mean time, we took the liberty of interpreting both Royals’ styles, from their shoes on up,  in “ready-to- wear” clothing here at  Celebrity Shoe Style the Narrow Shoe Way.
