Chloe, Casadei Take Over The OC
Sexy Styles Sell at Antonia, A Shoe Boutique

In Newport Beach, Calif., the true residents of Orange County are always on the cusp of cutting edge fashion. ImageAntonia, A Shoe Boutique is up to the challenge of giving them exactly what they want. “Our customers have high expectations in fashion,” says Debbie Johnson, who co-owns the store with her friend Darlene Gardner. Metallic colors, beautiful espresso browns and microfibers on boots have also taken off, plus “stacked heels are always good in the fall, because they’re very wearable and sexy.” Here are a few of the sassy styles seen strutting through The OC.

Why It’s A Top Seller:

“It’s a black suede foldover short bootie [shown here in forest green] that has a side cutout and ruffle along the whole vamp with about a 3-inch heel. The booties are going to be huge, and this has the illusion of being both a pump and a bootie. Plus, it’s Chloe, and they have the most amazing leathers.”

Why It’s A Top Seller:

It looks like snake, with two side zippers. It’s very sexy; it’s very comfortable, and the fit on the leg for a tall boot is amazing and that’s always a plus. When you’re working the skirt and you’ve got something that fits you beautifully on the leg, it’s unbelievable.”
