Paul Green ankle boots!


Everyone agrees that Paul Green makes a very comfortable shoe. His shoes are such good quality that they last for years and they are perfect for our weather in the Pacific Northwest! These Austrian made shoes are not only comfortable, but they are beautiful and chic! This ankle boot called the Blend is a must have for winter! The heel height is not too high and not too short, it's just right. It will work with trousers, jeans, and skirts!

Joie "She's Electric" $385

These funky booties are Joie's fashion forward masterpiece. Comfortable, ie wearable all day (I vouch and have done it), swanky, and with a touch of feminine sex appeal. Joie's "She's Electric" takes the idea of the ever popular booties or ankle boot and turns all notions of what is fashionable upside down. The open toe and cut out heel cap are fashion forward without being over the top. Wear with jeans, or a fabulous dress to stun all those around you.


Snap closure, with asymmetrical side zip adds of bit of the hard edge motorcycle flair. Partially hidden 3/4" cork platform. 3.75" wooden heel. Leather sole.

Joie "New Orleans" $465

We all know that Joie makes comfortable shoes and boots, but these "New Orleans" boots are relaxed fit luxuriousness. 1" stack heel, made of buttery oiled distressed Cacao leather and secured with rugged leather straps around the ankle, you will simply love them.

Bronx "Linus" Boot $168 in Dirty Suede Cognac or Anthracite

Cowgirl meets fashion, hello Bronx Linus boots!

Just bought myself a pair, because they are so comfortable. Wear with skinny jeans, or if you're like me and don't do the skinny jeans, these are big enough around the calf to tuck flared jeans into, or pair with a sweater dress for a cute urban chic look.

they amazingly fit under jeans as well

Comfortable, rugged (I took mine to the coast and rode horses in them), durable, and cute- you can wear the Bronx Linus either all the way up or slouched for a more fashionable style.

These boots are also great for ladies with larger calves and high arches- (it is the only pull on boot that I can fit my high arch into!)

Introducing the Fabulous SZ Collection

mu.shoe would like to introduce the newest addition to our fabulous collection of luxury designer handbags- and that is the SZ Collection by Silvia Zumarraga.

Inspired by her grandfather's cattle ranch lifestyle in the foothills of the Andes in Argentina, Silvia selects the finest leathers and works with the local tanneries in Argentina to create stunning colors and leathers which are the cut and sown together by hand.

SZ Collection produces small quantities of each bag; resulting in a well-designed and hand-finished handbag that can be ordered in several colors. SZ Collection's exclusivity is defined in the true sense of the word, unmistakably classic, always appropriate and totally individual. After all, who doesn't like to be asked “where did you get that beautiful bag?”

Classic style and beautiful craftsmanship are Silvia's SZ Collection hallmarks- and we think you will fall in-love with her amazing sense of style, just as we have.
