Beauty & Style

AZFoothills.com has already brought you "Three Days in Paris," a spring shopping and dining guide showcasing the most exclusive, must-see boutiques and restaurants in Paris. Having spent four months of 2008 in London, I thought I’d follow up with another European shopping guide and share some of my personal experiences, which mostly entail me getting lost, and stumbling across treasure chests of fashion. Here are the places I quickly, and willingly, spent all of my money.

As I gazed across the spring strappy sandal selection at my favorite department store, a virtual gumball machine of expensive designer goodies, I realized. Candy is to little girls what designer shoes are to big girls. There is no item in a girl’s closet quite as lip-smacking as a perfect pair of designer shoes.

It’s not just the temperature that is sweltering. Slip on the hottest suits of the summer and let the heat begin.
