Yee-Haw! Nicole Kidman’s Country Couture

The Former Mrs. Cruise One-Ups Katie Holmes On The Red Carpet

We admit, it took us half a tick to figure out what the heck Oscar winner Nicole Kidman was doing at the Country Music Awards.

Some kind of desperate promotion to save Australia from a Razzie nomination? What? There are cowboys and flannel shirts in the trailer so it would kind of make sense.  A PR blitz to generate buzz for an upcoming role as a botox-ed bronco rider in an Annie Oakley flick?

Oh right, she’s Keith Urban’s plus one.  He’s so man-tanned and waxed we tend to  think of him as just a really pretty prop.  Like an awesome “Screw Tom Cruise and his weak DNA” accessory.

From the front, Nic is all BUSINESS in a glittering floor-length, long-sleeve L’Wren Scott turtleneck dress, but SASSY from the back.

It’s like the sartorial equivalent of a mullet, which is both fitting for the event and a delightful lesson in similes and metaphors. She continues the coy concept with prim and proper meets wooo! open bar, peep-toe slingbacks.  Layers of whimsy!


Finish a bold look with an understated, but elegant, shoe, like these Kate Spade satin ‘Gwen’ slingbacks, available from ShoeCompare.com.

Sure ShoeMinx is happy to report on Sunday Rose… but, predictably, we’re way more *over the moon* to scoop some rather thrilling shoe news from Nic’s upcoming epic Australia. The film re-teams Nicole with her Moulin Rouge director Baz Luhrman and designer Catherine Martin. As part of the film’s 1940’s look, Nicole and Catherine engaged designer and Shoe God Salvatore Ferragamo to design all of the vintage-inspired accessories. Ferragamo, a costumer designer before turning couturier, was responsible for Marilyn Monroe’s iconic pumps from The Seven Year Itch.

Nicole was seen modeling a pair of Ferragamo riding boots in this month’s issue of American Vogue.

Luckily for us, all of the shoes worn by Nicole’s character will be available for purchase. This includes the above riding boots and a pair of sexy velvet shoes that will be included in Ferragamo’s holiday collection.

Can’t wait for the Australia collection to hit the stores? Check out the Ferragamo Fall Collection.

These Ferragamo Neil Wedge Boots should do the trick…
