Shoes Crush

 

Kick butt and take names with these Black Gold Studded Pumps from Ruthie Davis

 

The oh-so-charming Brian Atwood designed for VB's collection, a rich rose gold pumps. What's not to love?

Chris Benz peep-toe leather stiletto

I present to you the wedges Christian Louboutin did for Gilles Mendel's J. Mendel runway show.he razor thin wedges are wrapped in bright coral silk faille bands that tie sweetly at the ankle not only look comfortable, but will undoubtedly be one of the most sought after shoes.

 While Francisco Costa's mastery of minimalism is truly a work of art, the same must be said of the designer's Calvin Klein Collection shoes. In my opinion highly underrated, the shoes are continuously streamlined and sleek but with an artistic edge. ALWAYS go for simplicity <3

Prada Platform Peeps-Toe Bootie. It's so basic, yet it has the ankle strap and peep-toe so it is unique.I would say "a great investment for fall" ;)

Green is such an underestimated color. Luckily, YSL picked up on that and has introduced two of its most popular models, the Tribute and the Trib Too!

 Karl Lagerfeld loves to celebrate a moment, and what better coincidence than the reopening of Chanel's groundbreaking Soho store? python peep toe pump and python ballerina flat are among the Soho exclusive shoe.

essence: galliano

Designer, entrepreneur and visionary genius John Galliano released a candle labeled ‘Diptyque Essence of John Galliano’. The candle has hints of Russian leather, musks, dried herbs, and smoky barks. The dark scents of the John Galliano candle are room filling and warm. Why not to add a little galliano scent in your room? ;)

Camilla Skovgaard: Ankle Boot Hotness

"Blakeboutin"

Gossip Girl star Blake Lively has had a Christian Louboutin shoe named after her.The actress, who is a friend of US Vogue editor Anna Wintour, told Live with Regis and Kelly that the gesture was a great honour.She said: "That was insane, it's like my greatest accomplishment." She then joked: "I want to sleep with [the shoe] under my pillow every night."Discussing her love of fashion, Lively said: "Getting to go to couture fashion week is great and getting to meet Karl Lagerfeld and John Galliano and Christian Louboutin is so exciting. It's like being a little girl and looking at these designers saying, 'Can you imagine one day seeing all of those ball gowns?
I don't get how Anna and Karl, in their infinite wisdom, don't see how much more awesome Leighton is than Blake. Everyone prefers blondes, I guess.

Growl

A strong, purple lip is a must-try for fall. Shades of deep eggplant and blackberry wowed at shows like Peter Som, Antonio Berardi, and Missoni back in February, causing a host of cosmetics companies to add the dramatic hue to their seasonal color offerings.(

Sneak Peek at Christian Siriano’s Spring 2011 Payless Line

Project Runway’s fierest alum Christian Siriano debuted his Spring 2011 collection last Thursday as part of New York Fashion Week. While the designs were fabulous as always, the models were also wearing footwear from his Christian Siriano for Payless Spring 2011 line. The shoes were inspired by “cultural influences from Africa, India and China together into a single design aesthetic” and it’s no question that these super-stylish shoes look like works of art. But it does make us wonder if these exact designs will be in stores, because  in the past Payless has toned down Christian’s designs to make them more mainstream.

 I LOVE <3 ! what do you think?
