Georgina Goodman


Hailed as the future of footwear design 'Georgina Goodman' has proved her critics right. Check out her absolutely beautiful carey shoes. I love the gold sole. These shoes look gorgeous from every angle. They cost a mere £280. Bargain!

Fendi's Studded Peep-Toe Platform Shoes

I love the platform look and these 'Fendi Studded Peep-Toe Platforms' are sooooooo Ace. The heel is a triangular shape and while some may say they look clumsy, they are rather nice, with a rocky look. They are at a costly $912 but they have the 'Fendi' logo engraved on the buckle.

Does Santa Know your 'Christian Louboutin' shoe size??


Christian Louboutin Anemone Stilettos Pumps are so chic and sexy. I love the satin tow-tone bow and at $925, they are well worth it.


These Christian Louboutin Very Prive Paillette Platforms are so gorgeous. I love the sequin look because it makes them sparkle. The price tag is £515 and can be found at Net-a-porter.com
Christmas has come early.

With over 100 new items in every week, these are a total must-have. New in for the Christmas period, Topshop's studded Crossover Platform at £65. They look very much like the 'Burberry Prorsum patent leather studded platform sandals' (£495) below, and as seen on Diane Kruger.

ViKtor and Rolf at Paris Spring 2008 Fashion Week.



Now I was one of those people who missed out on the Viktor and Rolf collection that was launched at H&M a few months back. Truth is I did not think that people would actually queue up the night before and by the time I got there, there was NOTHING left. It all went within minutes. Just don't let these chic, sexy shoes go. Get them now.

Balenciaga Gladiator Sandals.


Rumour has it that Jennifer Connelly might be the new face of Balenciaga. Whether this is true or not, I do not know but one thing I knowis that she looks great in these Balenciaga Spring 2008 Gladiator Sandals. These are really eye catching, especially in red. I prefer the knee height version. What do you think?



"Enfant Terrible"- JEAN PAUL GAULTIER

I love, love, love 'Jean Paul Gaultier,' ever since the 'Euro- Trash' days. The 'enfant terrible' of French fashion is a cutting edge designer and these boots from his Autumn/ Winter 2007-8 show prove it. Absolutely ace these.

That extra Inch....

These sexy shoes are by 'Andriano Diagi and Di Marni.' They are actually a Ukrainian brand. Their boots and shoes are all hand made and with so much hands on, they also come with a prohibitive price tag to match. One of the most sort after brands in Europe, these shoes boast a heel height of 7.5". Not only do you need great pins (legs), but also, I would imagine, leg insurance.


With great pins like these, who would not want to wear 'Di Marni?'

Cannot wait to get Carrie'd Away in Dior.....




I simply cannot wait for the 'Sex & the City' movie. I am so excited and looking forward to seeing all the fashions and salivating at the shoes 'glorious' shoes that will be on display. Here is a sneak preview of what is in store for us fans of Carrie Bradshaw; oh yes! The 'Christian Dior Python Gladiator Plateau heels.' Brilliant or what!!?!........ Carrie seems to think so, she wears them on these different occassions.



Droooolllll.........

Cristobal Balenciaga's 'Closed Front Cage Sandals with ankle pads...'


Cristobal Balenciaga's Winter 07/ 08 'Closed Front Cage Sandals with ankle pads' Collection is just fabulous. I love the sporty but office friendly (okay, maybe not exactly office friendly), look to these sandals and the 'so...in your face' colours. I just don't like the fierce price tag of $4,175 a pair.
As you can see above, Beyonce rocked these cuties at the 2007 American Music Awards during her 'Irreplaceable' performance.

Christian Louboutin's Ariella Studded Boots.

I Love them, I Want them, I am Obsessed!! The 'Christian Louboutin Ariella studded boots.' And also the over the knee 'Donjon boots' with a flat sole for those of you who have not yet mastered the art of walking on heels. The over the knee version costs a dear £1,225. For these, I could almost sell a kidney.



All studded up out and about, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in 'Christian Louboutin Ariella studded boots.' I absolutely love the almond shaped toe and the zipper fastening on the back. These boots have a 120mm heel, 15mm platform and a price tag to match of £585 or ($1150). This is a sure way to get heads turning. Now these, you put on your credit card!

Mad about Christian Louboutin's Mad Mary Mary Janes??

'Christian Louboutin's Mad Mary Mary Janes' look so sexy with the silver studs on the heels and strap. You would be mad not to have a pair of these ladies in your closet. They cost about £437 ($865). Now some of you might think this is expensive but then again if you can afford them, then they are not really expensive. Are they?

Shoe & the City- Pedro Garcia

A good pair of shoes is every woman's best friend.
Check out these 'flame Orange open toe Duna shoes by Pedro Garcia.' Absolutely gorgeous and would look fantastic when worn with a little black dress. The platform is 2.5cm with a 10.5cm heel. These babies are so Delicious. If you are not brave enough to strut them in orange, not to worry. They also come in off black and grey and at a reasonable £172, they are a must-buy for your wardrobe.

This is one brand to watch out for which boosts a loyal celebrity following that includes Victoria Beckham, the Olsen twins, Kirsten Dunst and the future queen of Spain.

"It's the whole package that makes this company work." - Pedro Garcia Sr.

Office Real High Platform Sandal



On of the hottest trend this season is the platform shoe. Yes ladies! the 60s are back. For those of you who lived this era it is a chance for you to re-live it, and for those of us who were born yesterday, it is time for us to experience a better evolved platform. I found this one in 'Office' UK. In black/pewt this sandal has a whopping 5" stiletto heel and 1" of platform. As seen on most celebrities such as the Sugababes (below), these will definitely make you stand out in a crowd. These shoes are absolutely gorgeous and I have them in this colour. They also come in purple satin/purple, grey satin/bronze and now in silver. At a decent £70, get down to 'Office' and get them before they sell out.
