Christian Louboutin never fails to impress and the Resort 2009 collection is absolutely amazing. I am so pleased with the colors and glitz in the shoes. Christian Louboutin shoes are very classic and timeless, as are the shoes from the Resort collection, but some of the shoes, including the Peep-Toe pumps are fantastically glitzy and glamorous.
These are definitely not Dorothy’s ruby red slippers (and we are for sure not in Kansas anymore!); these Glitter Peep Toe Pumps are much more of Cinderella shoe. I would totally let my Prince Charming take me away to the Ball in a gown and …read more

Flats have been the ugly duckling of the fashion world for many years now.
Let’s face it, how often do designers actually send a comfortable pair of shoes down the runway?  How often have we seen models end up carrying their shoes by the end of the runway, or even worse – literally falling out of them?
Linda Grant is taking a closer look at flats – and how they fit into the wardrobes of fashionable women.
I don’t think that flats need to be relegated to being stuck under desks or slipped into after the big meeting.  Check out some of these …read more

Marc Jordan, music mogul, was married this weekend in beautiful Venice, Italy. Not only did he and his new wife look totally gorgeous, but there were a host of celebrity guests, including Rihanna. Here she is posing with a catholic monk.

I’m crazy for this picture, not just for the inherent irony, but because I love that Rihanna eschews traditionally conservative wedding garb in favor of honoring her own personal style. I love the Alexander Wang dress and Christian Louboutin’s. Work it, girl.

Oh, yeah, and here are the bride and groom looking fabulous! That almost floor-length mantilla is seriously covetable, and …read more

Do you know someone or are you someone who is a full fledged shoe addict?  Do you have about oh, $2830 lying around?  If  so, these amazing Christian Louboutin heels can be yours to show off, strut down the street in and put on display in your house because oh my goodness are they beautiful!
In Rachel Zoe’s words, “I died” when I saw these Christian Louboutin Jeweled Platform Slingbacks from his fall collection. They’re are so insanely gorgeous that I can’t stop looking at them and dreaming up all sorts of fabulous outfit combinations… *sigh* Yes, they cost $2830 …read more

Mesh details are showing up in an unexpected place – shoes for Fall & Winter!
I’ve already written about some of Christian Louboutin’s new mesh-detail shoes – but he’s not the only one getting into the sheer fun.  Dior, and Jimmy Choo both have mesh shoes for Fall 2009.
Of course, if you’re going to rock the mesh look, there is a time and a place for it…  In my neck of the woods, winter involves some serious snow and cold – which is just not so practical for high heeled mesh shoes!  Now if winter just means you don’t need to …read more

Yesterday I talked about the upcoming Fall trend of lush velvet blazers. While they’re all quite fabulous and luxurious, some of you may not want to go all out with the velvet trend. Maybe you’d rather do a little dabbling instead? There’s an easy way to incorporate the velvet trend into your Fall wardrobe and gift ideas, and that’s with vampy velvet shoes!
Aren’t they to die for? These ridiculously scrumptious velvet shoes are truly one of those investment worthy pieces. Let’s discuss each one, shall we?
The Christian Louboutin Lima Buckled Velvet Sandal ($1145) is definitely the one I would choose. …read more

There are some things luxurious investments are choices, much like choosing soda over water or spending savings on a vacation when you should be paying off student loans. However, the black pump, much like the little black dress is one investment that just cannot be overlooked.
These Christian Louboutin Miminette 70mm Pumps are a perfect example of how an investment piece doesn’t have to be boring. The patent leather and amazing comfort that comes along with these small heels are amazingly understated, but still chic. Of course you could pick up a pair of patent leather pumps from a non-name designer …read more

Think about how many good things come wrapped up in a bow…
Birthday presents, boxes of chocolates, fancy cards – bows mean something special is inside, right?
So why not adorn yourself with a pretty bow?  After all, you’re definitely special!
Christian Louboutin has created a purse that’s covered with a giant bow – in fact, it even looks like a present, topped off with a pretty bow:
The “Satin Bow” kiss-lock clutch purse is available in either red or black satin and features the signature red-soled pump lock and chain handle.
The old remedy for forgetfulness was to tie a string around your finger, …read more

If I were a rich girl, I would likely own a separate residence just for dressing. Alas, I am not, and like the rest of us not so rich girls out there, I need my handbags to be versatile. Which means that I can’t buy an evening bag to go with every evening dress or vice versa. I need classic styles that work from season to season and year to year. This Cadeau clutch is a great investment bag for special occasions.
It’s quirky and whimsical, but not in a way that will make it seem dated a few years from …read more

Allow me to explain to you my theory of bridal shoe shopping. Ladies, think of your wedding not as an opportunity to buy a mid-priced pair of shoes that you will never wear again, but as a chance to buy a really super amazing pair of shoes that you will want to wear all the time. This is the one time in your life (maybe) when you can say things to yourself like “money is no object”. Or something like that. In any case, unlike your dress, you CAN wear your shoes again, so why not do it?
If you’re wearing …read more
