Fancy Fine visits Ver Unica!

Last Monday we had the pleasure of hosting one of our favorite San Francisco bloggers, Ashley from Fancy Fine, for a little dress up photo shoot.



We had too much fun watching gorgeous Ashley try on finds from our racks- this furry white coat and Oscar de la Renta dress were two of our favorits pieces on her (Ashley's boyfriend Victor was kind enough to be her photographer for the day). Too see more from her adventures at Ver Unica, click here!

Thanks, Ashley!

New 1950's Stiletto Collection at 437!



We just got an unbelievable new shoe collection here at 437B Hayes, and we can't get over how fabulous these babies are. All 1950's stiletto "springolator" mules (most by Mandel's Fascinating Slippers), these were a private collection owned by a woman who clearly loved her shoes! They're in stunning condition, and each one just begs to be worn again. The catch? They're all size 8.5 or 9. Since none of us gals here at the store can wear them (sob!), every last beautiful pair is up for grabs. We have quite a few, but these are some of our favorites....


These shimmery peachy-gold ones are so sweet and dainty- we'd love to have seen the dress that surely matched these!


Can't get over these suede color-blocked stunners, they're perfect for fall dresses.


Believe it or not, these are only a few of the metallics!


Are we the only ones who picture "bad" Sandy at the end of Grease when we see these?



This gorgeous turquoise brocade pair even comes with a matching clutch!

Come check these sultry slippers out before they're all gone! They're sure to bring out any girl's inner bad Sandy.

Now that fall weather is finally starting to grace our fair city, it's time to break out the boots, sweaters, and coats, and we couldn't be more excited about this year's selections.

From chic 70's leather boots to sumptuous cashmere sweaters and vintage furs (both real and faux), we've got everything San Franciscans need to stay warm in the fog.
