N o v aBeing blessed with athletic

calves, I always find long boots a challenge. These

are perfect for me as they have elastic which

stretches to accommodate all calf sizes.

V i v i e n n eI love the asymmetrical strap on these

shoes; it really flatters the foot and I love the kitten heel; the perfect height for work.

P e t aThese sneakers are so versatile they

take me from walking my dog to coffee with a friend.

IN THE BAG

Liz Mitchell always wanted to be a fashion designer. Her mother was a stylish, modern woman and always had fashion magazines

around the house, which Liz spent hours flicking through.

Fast-forward to today, shes one of our most successful designers with a varied and colourful career. When asked what fashion means to her, its clear it means everything.

Its my world, she replies. I think fashion is such an amazing industry. From the creation of yarn, colours, themes and ideas, and then turning them into something practical that can be worn its got to be comfortable and its got to look chic.

After graduating from Auckland University Fine Arts School in 1979, Liz became a designer for an edgy fashion boutique called Pussyfooting in Aucklands Kitchener St, specialising in the fashion of the time metallics, shoulder pads... and frills, frills and more frills!

After a stint working in London, she returned home and landed a dream role as a costume designer for the hit new TV series at the time, Gloss.

It was such an exciting time for fashion in New Zealand. The colours were extreme, the shoulder pads were big and the hair was even bigger, Liz laughs.

She eventually decided to go out on her own as a freelance designer and TV stylist.

It got to the point where I had enough experience, knowledge and above all else, faith in myself that I could make it work so I decided to start my own label, she says.

In 1994, Liz Mitchell Design was born.Over 20 years later, having ridden just about every curve of the rollercoaster that is the fashion industry, shes still in love with clothes.

Highlights have been the red carpet moments like dressing Keisha Castle-Hughes for the Academy Awards, working with Weta workshop, and also with Farmers to create their first designer collection.

Her next creative partnership? Designing a bag for Ziera customers to carry their new shoes home in with all proceeds from the $3 bag going towards the Dress for Success charity in New Zealand and Australia.

It was a natural step for the Kiwi designer, whose clothes are known for being wearable and comfortable, with loads of personality

Shes one of the founding members of New Zealands vibrant fashion community and now Liz Mitchell is teaming up with Ziera to help carry the brand to new heights

just like Ziera shoes.Over the last few years Ive been

noticing more and more of my clients are purchasing Ziera shoes to complete their outfits, she says.

Im a practical person myself, I need comfortable shoes. As you get older, you can wear heels for a short amount of time, but when youre on your feet for a long period of time, comfort is key.

Liz admits that a beautiful dress will only do so much a handbag, the right accessories and the perfect shoe are needed to complete a look.

If you buy quality shoes, they will last for many seasons. I hear women talking every day about problems and pain with their feet and footwear. Its fantastic that Ziera are addressing these issues; there has been a gap in the market for fashionable and comfortable shoes for too long, she says.

Liz even used Zieras Paris shoe for one of her latest look books, so when she got the call from Ziera asking if she would like to be involved in a special project, the answer was a resounding yes.

Liz is a supporter of Dress for Success, so was a natural choice for this initiative, says Ziera group marketing manager, Nicky Dunn. Her design of the bag brings in the Ziera look in a unique way, with all of the colours for the Autumn/Winter season.T H E

IN HER SHOESWhen it comes to style, there are few women more qualified than Sonia Greenslade

9AM I get a sneak peek at the new season offerings from local and overseas designers for future shoots.

For more than 20 years, Sonia Greenslade has been creating some of the countrys most

fashionable looks for magazine covers, celebrity shoots, fashion editorials and TV commercials. Its her expert eye that puts together the stunning campaign images each season when we showcase a new range of Ziera shoes.

Shoes are such an important fashion item; they can make or break an outfit, explains Sonia. I love working with Ziera to bring all the looks of the season together.

Just like the fast-paced fashion world she works in, Sonia says no two days are ever the same. What does stay constant is shes always on her feet whether shes running around town picking up clothes, attending designer showcases, styling on set at shoots or making sure our A-list look their best.

Comfort is key to me, she laughs. But there is no reason why comfort and style cant go hand-in-hand.

10AM On any day, I can be working on five to 10 different projects. Thats a lot of clothes and shoes!

11AM There are new cuts, textures and colours for every season fashion is always being updated.

5PM A stylists phone is always ringing, and my diary is a must have to keep track of everything.

1PM As a stylist, you have to know how the whole overall shoot will look, not just the clothes.

3PM Its a very hands-on job; youre constantly altering, adjusting and adding to the outfit.

S O N I A S P I C K S

J u l i e t& K i r a I love the simplicity of the

design, she says. I live in boots during the colder months and both these styles will work well

with the new fashion looks coming in.

do the tight thingWhen it comes to showing your outfit in the best light, stylish tights are a shoe in

colour Use a coloured tight to bring interest to an all-black outfit. Or if you really want to be on trend, choose a tight that is a complementary colour (ie the opposite on the colour spectrum) from your main outfit tone. If youre wearing a pattern, you could also pick out one of the colours to highlight with your tight choice. Subtle tones, as opposed to primary colours, will create a more successful effect.

As the temperature drops its time to put away the faux tan, retire the razor, reach for the tights and embrace the cover-up.When we plan our winter wardrobe, most of us automatically think about black tights,

and why not? Theyre warm, stylish, match with everything and, as a bonus, slim the leg. Plus, when it comes to completing your winter look dont underestimate the power of your hosiery to take an outfit from flat to fab.

Today tights are about fashion not just function, says magazine fashion editor, Louise Hilsz. I love the way you can change the entire look of an outfit just by changing the tights.

Take these pointers on board and make a style statement this winter.

black The idea with black tights is theyre not meant to be noticed unless youre pairing them with an outfit in one solid colour. The best choice is to go for an opaque of at least 60 denier thickness. These days, tights can even go up to 200 denier for ultra-black coverage. Opting for a matte finish will also be more flattering on the leg.

pattern Forget the lace tights of the 1980s; todays patterns are a chic choice for anyone who likes fashion. They can be as subtle or as loud as you desire but the trick here is not to mix patterns. Your tight should be the style statement, so keep all other elements of your outfit classic solid colours.

You could be in to win one of four packs of New Zealand-made Columbine tights where fashion meets quality valued at $100. To enter go to zierashoes.com/competitions. Entries close June 30, 2015.

WIN! One of four packs of Columbine Pant yhose, worth $100 each.

look good, feel greatBeing told you need sensible footwear is enough to make any shoe-loving fashionista shudder but you dont have to sacrifice style for comfort. We get the low-down from Zieras consulting podiatrist Liz Satterley

Having worked as a podiatrist for 16 years, Liz Satterley has been involved in all aspects of the field hospitals, community health,

private practice and now, in the footwear industry with Ziera. She became involved with Ziera after contacting us to tell us how comfortable our shoes were: a good move on her part because Ziera offered her a job!

I need to wear appropriate footwear to work, but then I need to keep it on for school pick-up and after-school activities as well. I loved that the shoes were not only comfortable but fashionable too, Liz says.

She says we often forget how much we rely on our feet and how neglected they are, tucked away in socks and shoes in winter. Our feet deserve loving attention to prevent foot problems which is where orthotic-friendly shoes come in.

WHAT ARE ORTHOTICS? They are contoured inlays for shoes, designed to support, align, prevent or correct a foot problem, or simply to enhance comfort and function. Theyre often used by sportspeople to help guide and support their bodies to perform their best or to support and alleviate pain due to an injury or other foot problems.

Orthotics can be over-the-counter products, such as contoured insoles, or they can be custom-made to meet your specific need. Ziera boots, shoes, and sandals come with inlays that offer cushioning and are moulded to support the foot and ultimately your whole body. These provide adequate support for many

people. More commonly, a new orthotic is specifically created to alleviate the problem. When the Ziera inlay is removed, there is room within the shoe for your custom orthotic.

HOW CAN THEY HELP?Orthotics can help to relieve and prevent a range of issues: back or knee problems due to pronation (a slight inward rolling motion of the foot as it hits the ground) or over-pronation; tired or aching feet; heel and arch pain; sports-related pain; problems linked to diabetes; and problems associated with arthritis.

Many women will admit to putting fashion before comfort, Liz says, but when the pain becomes a daily occurrence, they realise they need a shoe that satisfies both needs.

Ziera is Australasias most recommended footwear brand by podiatrists and other medical professionals, as we have a wide

range of orthotic shoes. As well as having enough room for your custom orthotic, our orthotic-friendly shoes offer adjustable fit, generous width, roomy toe area, padded toplines, rocker soles, strong steel shanks and the support you need.

A major focus for Ziera is offering plenty of style options to suit any taste and lifestyle from womens casual shoes to dress shoes, walking shoes to corporate classics.

Most of our customers have foot issues, but theres a lot who dont; they just buy Ziera shoes because they love the look, explains Liz.

Whats great about that is they are preventing any foot issues that may arise further down the track its a win-win.

under pressureReflexology has been keeping people healthy for thousands of years. Heres all you need to know about the ancient skill

A practice which has historical roots right back to ancient Egypt, reflexology is the application of pressure onto specific points and areas on the foot, hands or ears. The theory is that these areas correspond directly with the bodys organs and energy flow, and that massaging them can help with a whole variety of ailments. Traditional Chinese medicine focuses on treating your body as a whole and working out whats going on at an energy level. Problems in the body arise when the energy levels, called qi pronounced chi are disrupted by something and cause a blockage. Headaches, muscle cramps, digestive problems, it is believed, are all a result of incorrect levels of qi in the body, and reflexology allows the tension to be released from that area and for the energy to flow freely.

We answer your most pressing questions on reflexology.

W h a t i s r e f l e x o l o g y u s e d t o t r e a t ? chronic pain headaches/migraines stress fatigue diabetes digestive issues pregnancy-related issues* asthma anxiety PMS* Its important you talk to your doctor before embarking on a reflexology treatment.

H o w d o e s t h i s a f f e c t y o u r f o o t h e a l t h ? Because all areas of your feet are important to overall body health, its crucial to wear shoes that are well-fitting and comfortable. Shoes that pinch, rub, restrict or squeeze parts of your feet can create issues around your body so when you put on a pair of painful heels or too-small loafers, its not just your feet that are paying the price!

W h e r e a r e t h e r e f l e x o l o g y p o i n t s o n t h e f o o t ?There are some 50 reflexology points on the feet, each of which impacts a different area of your health. Each foot represents the corresponding side of the body, eg the right food affects the right side and the organs on that side, like the liver. The foot is divided into sections; the top third (including toes) represents the head, neck and spine, the middle third represents the chest area, and the bottom third represents digestive and reproductive organs. To find a qualified reflexologist near you, see www.reflexology.org.nz/www.reflexology.org.au.

1 Remove all nail polish. If it doesnt come off immediately, soak a cotton wool ball and leave it on the nail for a few minutes. Youll find its a little stubborn in the crease where the nail meets the skin so use a Q-tip soaked with nail polish remover for these areas.

3 Fill a large bowl with warm water and add essential oils. Tea tree oil has natural deodorising properties and is anti-fungal, while peppermint oil is good for increasing circulation. It also has a cooling effect and smells great. Our top tip is to add a quarter of a cup of milk as the lactic acid will help dead skin. Dunk your feet in and let them soak. The rougher and more calloused they are, the longer theyll need to stay in there.

5 Dry your feet thoroughly, particularly between your toes. 6 Apply a thick moisturiser, oil or foot cream all over your feet and massage well.

7 Dont even think about cutting your cuticles, because if not done correctly, there is a high risk of infection. Instead, after the skin on your feet is softened from your foot bath, simply use a cuticle stick to gently push them back.

8 Now its time to paint. Apply a thin base coat with just three swipes one in the middle and then one down each side.

9 Wait a few minutes for this layer to dry then add two coats of your favourite nail polish at the moment were loving tones of orange and red. But if youre feeling adventurous, try a double coat of winter white, the shade du jour.

10 Finish with a topcoat to increase shine and durability.

4 To slough off rough spots, make an exfoliant with either sugar or salt crystals mixed with jojoba or almond oil. Massage each foot with the scrub, starting at your heels and working around your toes, arches, ankles and calves. Rinse off.

Two Ziera customers get a stylish new look, from the ground up!

SHES IN FASHION

Its been 20 years since Jeanette started buying Ziera shoes, and when she bought her very first pair, there was no time for a breaking-in period. As a doctor, she needed a comfortable pair of shoes that could withstand her nightly shifts at the hospital.

When I started on the wards, I was walking all day. It was about eight or nine hours on your feet, Jeanette says. But at least once a week youd be on rotations, which was 16 hours on your feet. So comfort was important.

These days, Jeanette has swapped her hospital rounds for a job as a GP, specifically a travel doctor. Shes the final port of call for those needing medical check-ups before heading overseas, such as Red Cross doctors or police going on international deployment. As a result, Jeanette needs a work style that looks professional, but approachable.

As a doctor, you need people to engage with you, Jeanette says. On the weekend Im pretty casual though jeans and a T-shirt, mainly.

Because of her job, Jeanette is well aware of how important keeping your feet in good shape is and thats why shes stayed loyal to Ziera for two decades.

When youre used to comfort, and you try other brands, theyre not that comfortable. I have a bunion and I tend to be flat-footed, so having something control the pronation [inward roll of the foot] helps.

With three grown-up children, Jeanette says she has tried to pass along her comfort first mentality but admits its hard with her two daughters.

At the moment fashion trumps everything, she laughs. But they always like to have a say on my shoes. So they have to pass the comfort test, but also the daughters test!

Jeanette admits she was surprised by how much she liked the different styles of clothing when it came to her new outfit.

The makeover was so much fun Ive got my eye on those shoes! Were sure her daughters would approve!

My shoes have to pass the comfort test, but also the daughters test!

Im determined not to become a

boring mum, Im into a bit

of pattern and a bit of clash

Since Ive become a mum, Ive got zero tolerance for uncomfortable footwear, Claire laughs, as the adorable Jamie, nearly two years old, sits next to her. I need something thats comfortable and also looks good.

Working in retail management around the country, Claire cultivated a distinctive style over the years.

I have a passion for a bit of bright I love a statement necklace! I never used to be a jeans girl but since having a baby, Im less about the dresses and more about comfort. But Im determined not become a boring mum, so Im still into a bit of pattern and a bit of clash.

Claire admits that Ziera didnt at first seem like a natural fit with her eclectic look, but a pair of black wedge heels changed everything.

Theyre phenomenal theyre black and stylish: not too high, not too low. And I get compliments every single time I wear them! I bought them two years ago, theyre still going strong and Ive thrashed them!

They were also one of the few pairs of shoes that made it through the transition from full-time work to full-time mum, because theyre toddler-proof. You can run around all day in them and you dont roll your ankle. An ankle roll with a toddler is not good you cant afford to go down!

When it comes to style, its all about thinking creatively, Claire says. I used to say this to my staff about my Ziera wedges its about thinking outside the box. Its all about what you pair it with mix them up with something that makes it about your personality.

With her makeover, Claire said that the dress was a great reminder of her pre-baby style. I havent worn a dress in forever and it was refreshing! Its reignited my desire to start wearing skirts again.

The boots, however, were a sure bet. I knew they were going to be comfortable but they looked awesome as well!

Claire DysonAfter leaving her high-powered fashion retail job to start a family, Claires fashion-forward sense of style had to take a sudden sensible turn when she found herself running after a very energetic toddler.
