The heat is on with the Rupert Sanderson Resort 2012 collection, which is perfect for warm summer nights out. Having a little something for every type of woman, the exquisitely colored heels and wedges are perfect for either a day at the beach or a night out on the town.
Sanderson describes his collection as "Caribbean meets Kenya" -- a perfect way to sum up the patterned fabric wedges, bright corals, turquoises and funky patterns. It's a wonder anyone can walk in wedges so high, but this gorgeous Resort line is just one example of style over comfort because these heels are fierce!
Implications - Resort collections were initially intended for the vacationing elite, and despite the growing consumer base of these between-the-seasons lines, the influence of this time of year -- and the status that it conveys -- is still evident.
