With the ongoing economic meltdown, we would see more designers’ collaborations with mass retailers and labels to attract savvy shoppers who are now watching their wallet closely. We’ve all heard about the successful collaborations of A-list designers with GAP, Kohl’s, Walmart, H&M’s and Target.*watch out for Target’s future collaboration with Alexander McQueen!
Meanwhile, Payless ShoeSource chose to collaborate with a number of B-list designers; Lela Rose, Abaete, Alice + Olivia, and recently, Patricia Field (the stylist/costume designer of SATC). Being a highly affordable footwear brand, I think it would be fair that we give credits to Payless this time. Payless will be launching its Holiday ‘08 Designer Collection. There’s a sneak preview of its upcoming collection from coutorture.com and some of the collection can be found online. The Patricia Field for Payless platform sandals (photo K & M below) definitely look like the Dior Extreme Gladiators that Carry wore on SATC movie, minus the Dior price tag! From all the designers for Payless, the only ones that really caught my eyes, are the Alice + Olivia and Patricia Field collections, although I’m questioning about their durability and comfort level. Read more about the designers at Payless, here.

Nyaman ato ngga kayanya kudu dicoba kali ya?
Soalnya, ada yg “kelihatan” mahal, ato yang emang beneran mehi, tapi bikin sakit kaki

hehe linda thx uda dijawab.. bener tuh spt yg linda bilang.. yg mahal bukan berarti nyaman yah di kaki.. dan yg murah bkn berati ga nyaman yah..
ragil & echi, kayaknya kita sama2x hrs coba dulu kali ya di kaki kita, gw nulis ragu di blog krn terakhir sempet beli sepatu si payless murmer uda di diskon pula dan heels nya tinggi siy, jalan 1 blok masi mampu tp uda bbrp blok uda mau pengsan
( tp gue punya sandal payless nyaman bgt setiap summer selalu kepake, tp sandal siy jd enak
