Saks Fifth Avenue has long known the way to our hearts, but in a demonstration of complete genius, they've taken things further by giving us even more of what we want–designer shoes. Saks has recently expanded its shoe floor (seriously, a floor) to 3,330-square-feet of designer shoes. The name, 10022-SHOE, comes from the zipcode of the New York flagship’s shoe salon. With every designer you love, and some you'll love very soon, the new salon promises to be Chicago's new shoe-go to for designer heels (and boots, and wedges, and flats) that mean business. One of the shoe-obsessed world's most-beloved designers, Brian Atwood, was there to help cut the ribbon at 10022-SHOE last week. We are thrilled that he and all of his brilliant shoe-designing cohorts are Chicago to stay.
