A trunk show featuring Stuart Weitzman’s Fall ‘09 collection and a “Stiletto” cupcake–i.e. the silhouette of a high heel shaped out of sugar on top of the cupcake–from Sprinkles (for customers who pre-order a pair of shoes) in honor of the shoe shopping occasion? What could be sweeter?The Stuart Weitzman shop in Beverly Hills will overflow with more than 100 styles (handbags too) at this three-day event, and promises to accommodate even hard-to-find widths (6-12AAAA’s, we’re talking to you!). But, we wouldn’t expect anything less from the man whose trademark is merging style with a perfect fit.

Thurs.-Sat., May 7-9. At Stuart Weitzman Beverly Hills, 437 N. Rodeo Dr., Beverly Hills, (310) 860-9600. www.stuartweitzman.com
