Accessories are the punctuation marks of an outfit. While clothes provide the main structure, accessories define and accentuate the narrative. They can serve as a style statement, making you stand out in a crowd and lending your outfit a stylish yet functional charm. Accessories such as shoes and bags add an edge to your ensemble, allowing you to experiment with shapes, colours and textures to create a unique style.
When it comes to shoes and bags, our local brands showcase exceptional craftsmanship through modern, contemporary designs. One of the popular local brands, specialising in women’s footwear and accessories, is Walkeaze. Over the years, it has gained popularity owing to its catchy designs and high-quality, yet affordable range of stylish bags and purses.
The brand has recently launched a new outlet at Dolmen Mall, Clifton, Karachi. Its current location in front of Lama will be closing soon, with the new outlet becoming its sole operating branch. The ceremony was attended by fashionistas, celebrities and shopaholics. At the launch, one could feel the excitement in the air. It is no doubt that, for many women, shopping - particularly for shoes and purses - offers a unique form of relaxation and joy. Browsing through colourful displays, feeling different textures and imagining how items complement outfits can provide a soothing mental escape from daily stress. The anticipation of discovering the perfect pair of heels or a stylish handbag can trigger a sense of accomplishment and happiness.
The event was a happy occasion where one could rub shoulders with celebrities such as Amna Malik, Amna Ilyas and Namra Shahid. They weren’t just posing for photos - they were interacting, smiling and soaking in the atmosphere alongside dozens of other celebrities, actors, influencers and bloggers who showed up to celebrate the moment. The ribbon-cutting ceremony felt symbolic in the best way. The three celebrities stood alongside the brand’s owner, scissors in hand, surrounded by cameras and cheering guests. It was quick, simple and genuine - no over-the-top theatrics, just a shared moment marking the beginning of something new. Once the ribbon fell, the crowd naturally flowed inside, eager to explore.
What sets this brand apart is not just the quality of its products but the seamless integration of these diverse offerings. From sleek formal pairs to comfortable everyday styles, the variety feels thoughtfully curated. Bags line the shelves in structured silhouettes and everyday classics. Whether you’re hunting for a professional tote to elevate your office ensemble or a casual cross-body for weekend errands, there’s a piece that fits seamlessly into every lifestyle.
A dedicated perfume section adds a soft, luxurious touch to the experience, with testers circulating among curious shoppers. Jewellery displays catch the light beautifully, offering pieces that ranged from subtle to statement. And tucked neatly within the layout are travel trolleys - practical but stylish - adding an unexpected twist to the overall mix.
By the end of the evening, one thing was clear: this wasn’t just another launch; it felt like the start of a new chapter, witnessed by a crowd that truly showed up. And if opening day was anything to go by, Walkeaze’s presence at Dolmen Mall Clifton is going to be one to watch, especially if you’re gearing up for your Eid shopping.
- You desk!
