Santa baby, listen up. Once you’ve got the spa and diamonds picked out, designer shoes and accessories are the next (albeit not final) step in showering your lady with splendid things. It is hard to compete with anything Prada, so don’t, especially if it’s these gorgeous booties. Instead, complete the thought with a fur scarf, glittery handbag and plush leather gloves. Consider this as “covering your assets.” Contact Saks Fifth Avenue, Walt Whitman Mall, at (631) 350-1100 or at saksfifthavenue.com.
