Before you know it, the weather will start cooling down and with the change of season, we’ll start shopping for fall shoes. Out with the sandals and in with the boots!

Peep-toe Pumps

Fall Shoe Trends: The Skinny Heel

Filed under Boots, Designer Shoes, Evening Shoes
For fall, we are going to see a lot of stilettos and skinny heels on every type of shoe imaginable, from booties to platforms. I like skinny heels a lot. They add some femininity to many of the menswear-inspired styles.
Recently, I learned about these Stuart Weitzman shoes for Fall 2009, which include an ankle boot and a gladiator sandal that you may like.
These charcoal suede ankle booties feature a platform sole and very skinny heel. The suede Stuart Weitzman Seamstress is priced at $375.
A new take on gladiator sandals, these satin evening shoes from Stuart Weitzman feature three buckled ankle …read more

As expected every year, this summer is all about sandals — high heeled strappy sandals, flat thong sandals and everything in between. So get your pedicure done and let’s go shopping! If you are looking to add some new shoes to your wardrobe, here are a some of the hottest summer trends.
Neutral Shoes
I have touched on it here in recent weeks, but neutral shoes in cream, beige and off-white are really trendy for spring and summer. They are a fabulous way to extend your wardrobe because you can wear them with almost anything.

Juicy Couture Lavish To-The-Knee Gladiator

Filed under Sandals
I love Juicy Couture’s cute charm bracelets and fun spring handbags. Their gladiator sandals? Not so much. In fact, these shoes are downright awful.
The Juicy Couture Lavish To-The-Knee gladiator sandals feature brown leather straps, an open toe and flat heel. They zip up the back for your convenience. As ugly as they look here, I’d imagine they will look even worse on your feet/legs.
I was so hoping that the gladiator sandal trend would fade away this year, but it’s back with a vengeance. My recommendation to you. Don’t wear these shoes under any circumstances. Well, unless you are going to …read more
Ugly Shoe of the Week: Studded Gladiators
March 8, 2009 by Kori Ellis
Filed under Sandals
I’m a big fan of Max Azria, but what the heck is this? I’m not fond of gladiator sandals in the first place but these shoes take things to whole other level of ugly.
The gladiator trend is hot again this season, and so are studded details. Throw them together, add a zipper up the front and you get one ugly pair of BCBGMAXAZRIA sandals.
Featuring brown pebbled leather and a mini wedge heel, I think these shoes are an atrocity. But if you love them, you can get them now at Saks Fifth Avenue for $225.
In case you can’t get enough …read more
Michael Kors Pareh Gladiator Sandals

If you thought you got rid of gladiator sandals for good at the end of last summer, you thought wrong. Gladiator sandals are back this spring.
It’s no secret that I’m not the biggest fan of gladiator sandals and it’s probably because last year they were everywhere and on everybody. This spring, I hope that people learn to wear them in moderation.
If I were to choose a gladiator sandal for myself, I’d select a high heeled version like this one from the KORS Michael Kors label. This shoe features stud detailing and a 4-inch stacked cone heel.
You can get the Pareh …read more

It’s New Year’s Eve. Time to celebrate with friends, set goals for the upcoming year, and reflect on 2008. When it comes to footwear, there were plenty of hot shoe trends that we all loved including animal prints, glossy patent leather and anything purple. However, 2008 also featured some shoe trends that we’d like to quickly forget.

Gladiator Sandals
They started out innocently enough. But before we knew it, gladiator sandals were everywhere. And they were getting taller and taller – and I’m not talking about the heels. These sandals were crawling up the leg and pretty soon …read more

Looking ahead to spring, a few trends are emerging in shoes. Jeweled sandals are everywhere. From jeweled flat thongs to crystal embellished high heel sandals, your feet with be sparkling all season.
A simple sandal goes glamorous with these Guiseppe Zanotti jeweled thong sandals. These gold metallic leather sandals feature a dazzling amber brooch accent and a flat heel.
You can order these sandals right now at Neiman Marcus for $695.
Another trend that I’m seeing is gladiator sandals. After so many of these sandals throughout the spring and summer of 2008, I was hoping they wouldn’t return for 2009, but …read more
