Rise to the occasion

Last week, it was all about comfortable shoes we’d walk miles in. This week, it’s all about designer kicks we can’t wait to show off. Hey — a girl’s gotta have options!

When hot designers team up with the Montreal-based retailer to make their footwear fantasies come true, the results can’t help but be stellar. Case in point? The SS12 Aldo Rise lineup features more than few must-haves, including Preen’s Giffee ($175).

The limited edition shoes are in stores now, giving us the perfect excuse to visit the newly re-opened Eaton Centre store to pick up our favourite pair(s).

Chilly temps have you feeling more fall? Head to the Aldo Rise Tumblr for a peek at next season’s lineup. —Christine Laroche
