Le Due by Due Farina is a relatively new, hip line that adds a little funk and glamour to your look. While Due Farina offers chic evening shoes, Le Due is a little more playful. From hippy chic boots to patent Mary Janes, they have some fantastic choices.

One of my favorites is this glossy Era Matronic Pump. It features a fabulous purple color (Vienna Bordeaux) and a modern design. The gold tone hardware and thick strap give this shoes some extra flair.

You can order the Le Due by Due Farina patent pump right now from Endless for $239.95. They aren’t cheap but if you think you will wear these often, the shoes are a great buy.

The Manolo Blahnik “Veni” is a fabulous patent shoe that will add a splash of color to any outfit. Available in red or turquoise patent leather, these shoes have a tonal buckle over the open toe and a 3 1/2-inch high heel.

The d’Orsay silhouette and terrific colors make these designer shoes a fun, flirty choice. As with all Manolo Blahnik shoes, these run small. So order up a half size larger than you usually wear.

Ruffled shoes are everywhere these days. Recently, I have seen some really beautiful choices, such as these Christian Louboutin T-strap sandals and these Martinez Valero sandals.

Now, here’s an affordable option from Poetic Licence. These shoes come in pink or black satin and feature wide ruffles along the T-strap. With a closed back and 4-inch heel, the Body Talk sandal makes a great choice for a party shoe.

You can get these sandals right now at Nordstrom for under $150. Personally I love the pink ones, but obviously the black are more versatile.

For Spring, I’m seeing a lot of interestingly heeled shoes, including cork, lucite and other materials. Here’s a pump from Dior that also fits the bill.

Featuring blue leather and cream topstitching, this peeptoe pump has a woven straw heel that sits on a goldtone pedestal. These are definitely unique but I’m not sure if they are attractive.

What do you think? Are these pumps pretty? Would you buy them? (Ignore the fact they are over $1,100.)

If you are looking for a fancy evening shoe, but don’t want too high of a heel, this wedge sandal from J.Renee is a good choice. Featuring three crystal encrusted rings to create the T-strap, these sandals are dressy enough for any holiday party.

They feature a 2 3/4-inch wedge heel. Wedges are much more comfortable than stilettos for most women because they distribute your weight. You can get these shoes in red, black or white patent, or bronze, gold or silver metallic.

I have always thought that boots should be boots and sandals should be sandals. So when these things collide, like in the the Steve Madden Triumphh pump, I’m not a big fan.

These suede shoes have an open toe and are open across the forefoot, but they have a boot-like shaft. What do you think about these pumps?

If you love them, you can get these Steve Madden shoes now in black or taupe suede for $109.95 at Nordstrom.
