“One shoe can change your life.” ~Cinderella
“Imagine what two shoes can do!” ~Dee Keller
It's true-we've met Dee Keller and she's changed the life of not only Peachy Deegan, but her two best friends as well: her left and right foot.
Dee Keller was first featured on Whom You Know with the Ernie:
If you're not convinced that not only Louisiana but also America is Dee Keller country, consider yourself informed this instant! The Saxon is one of the most attractive, versatile, comfortable shoe styles this season and it comes in the myriad of colors seen above. Naturally as a Manhattanite, Peachy Deegan prefers this in black. (you would understand if you lived in New York-keeping anything light is not easy on these streets!) The Saxon, like everything else Dee Keller waves her wand at with excellence, is made in Italy. Amo Le Scarpe Italiane!
The Saxon has a comfortable, smart elastic that goes around your ankle, anchoring on the shoe properly.
Even the sole and the inside are of quality and engineered intelligently and with style.
This model reminds us of Audrey Hepburn in her greatest movies-Roman Holiday, Sabrina, Funny Face, Charade, Breakfast at Tiffany's and more. Note that Peachy has feet of normal width that look skinny in these which is fantastic. We like to look skinnier than we really are (Miraclesuit is helpful there too!) They are absolutely stunning once you have them on:
Saxon by Dee Keller
A ballerina inspired ballerina, the Saxon by Dee Keller is the ultimate in comfort and style. Manufactured in Italy, these flats are available in a variety of colors including rose gold, gold, silver, black and natural leather. The crisscross elastic adds a feminine feature to these flirty flats. A must wear for all day, every day.
Peachy took them for a spin on the East side!
They made the flowers smell better!
They pointed us in the right direction!
They kept us from falling in the subway! Or worse!
They helped us hail a taxi!
And the Saxon even functions on the wild side...
You don't need to be in New York to love them...
The Saxon by Dee Keller is available now through Dee Keller's website and in August in stores.
DeJeanne (Dee) Keller, born and raised in Baton Rouge, Louisiana has a law degree from Tulane University. She is married to a successful real-estate developer, has raised four amazing children that are now ages 16 to 23. And as a cancer survivor, she has raised millions for the cause. With her cheerful energy and youthful appearance, it is not unusual to get her confused with Brighton, her 23 year old daughter, University of Texas graduate.
Dee Keller, like most incredible American women, has always loved fashion. Dee however, has an unusually stunning, innate sense of style. With an obsession for beautiful shoes, Dee was determined to create and market her own shoe collection.
Designing and creating a shoe collection is not a simple ambition. She started in her own closet, tearing up her Manolos and Louboutins to understand how shoes are constructed.
Traveling to Italy, where master shoemakers reside, Dee continued to cultivate her knowledge and understanding of the best materials and craftsmanship. Within a few months, Dee was designing her collection and having samples made. Her first collection exited for Spring-Summer 2012.
Dee Keller’s first shoe collection was instantly applauded and purchased by some of the best luxury boutiques in the south. Knowing that the first season is an important test, her orders delivered on time, and the inventory was basically sold before her shoes made it to the sales floor. They were “pre-sold” to clients by enthusiastic sales associates.
Inspired by her initial success, Dee decided to expand her distribution for Autumn-Winter 2012, selling luxury specialty stores in Houston and Dallas as well as Neiman Marcus stores across the country. The Dee Keller collection is inspired by contemporary southern women. Charming women of the south have always been stereotyped as, very feminine and lady-like which is reflected by the impeccable way they dress. They are, however, the pillar of strength on the inside. Dee Keller shoes reflect this femininity and charm, but incorporates a boldness that references strength.
Italian design by way of Louisiana: Living out her longtime dream to become an accessory designer, Baton Rouge-based Dee Keller changed career paths to blaze a new trail and launch her eponymous line. To realize her dream, Keller leverages the rich history of Italian craftsmanship for the production of her shoes and handbags. With a much-lauded Spring 2012 debut that has since attracted the attention of Neiman Marcus, her styles are fresh, relevant and timeless with a delightful attention to detail found in every piece. Marked by their joie de vivre and beauty, Keller’s designs will add a spark to any wardrobe.
