High End Heels: Cate Blanchett’s $11,000 Roger Vivier Statement

Cate Blanchett Shows off her Swarovksi Crystal-Studded Pumps

 

Cate Blanchett was looking her party best in Australia last night for the Helpmann Awards which recognize artistic achievement in Australia’s live performance sectors.

But the showstopper of the night (ahem, besides her cleavage) was undeniably her shoes, setting the shoe-blogs ablaze today. ShoeMinx’s crack research staff has learned that she wore a pair of limited edition Roger Vivier heels with sequined star detail and Swarovski crystal buckles. These $11,000 ’heels of fortune’ were featured in a New York Post online video in the spring. The sales woman in the video seemed to think they were destined for a museum and not the red carpet.

 

Cate showed them off, showing up the production and making headlines around the world.

Helpmann Awards? Who cares.

But the Shoes. Now there’s news fit to print!!

Eye-Poppin’ Heel Candy: Roger Vivier Video

Shoeminx Loves this video of a Roger Vivier private shopping night featuring Feist’s pop-dreamy “1234″ as a soundtrack.

This is the kind of footage that makes you think, if only for a naive, guilty moment, that world peace could be achieved by shoe shopping. We love the slap-happy kids running around prim parent ankles, the effortlessly chic power moms sipping on champagne while trying on signature Vivier flats. Oh, isn’t this a civilized way to shop?

Our all-time favorite Vivier? His sexy as sin Rose N’ Roll pump with the signature thorn heel. The thorn adds that extra sass to the shoe, for a glamorous punctuation point. Another statement shoe that looks as good on a museum plinth as your foot.
