Jimmy Choo – Past, present, future

The big Jimmy Choo update has arrived, yay! This post has shoes worn by various celebrities during the last couple of months – these lucky ladies have chosen their footwear from the brand’s Spring-Summer 2011, Fall-Winter 2011 and Cruise 2012 collections.

Let’s start with a pair from the previous and current collection for the summer:

Franziska van Almsick’s pair has summer written all over it, while Alessandra Ambrosio’s Vita (Cruise 2012, 145 mm heel,  colors: nude, black, champagne, price around $730) has become almost a classic already.

—

Talk about classics! The Lance sandals, worn here by Emmy Rossum when visiting George Lopez last year, are from Jimmy Choo’s 24:7 collection. The heel height is 115 mm, it comes in orange, black, nude, red, gold metallic, silver metallic and in gold snakeskin. Prices range from $670 to $810 (snakeskin).

—

Part of the Pre-Fall collection is the Blade, worn here by Sylvie van der Vaart. 115 mm heel, comes in black color as well, and it costs around $780.

—

Greta is one of the shoes of the Icons collection – with 145 mm high heels and a price tag of $1000 it really is one! Emma Watson wore this one perfectly. You can have it in gold and in black.

—

Up next, this is Eros of the Autumn-Winter 2011 collection. The perfect shoe has caught the eye of both Jennifer Lopez and Sandra Bullock. The facts: $715, 145 mm heel, anthracite or black.

—

Shakira’s Sierra has 145 mm heels, costs $810 and it’s from the Cruise 2012 collection. FYI, the color is called champagne…Vanessa Minnillo’s Esam is from the AW 2011 collection, has 145 mm heels too, comes in nude and black, and costs a whopping $1500!

—

Now that we’ve reached the Cruise collection, here’s a campaign photo. I totally like it!

The pair called Beak is part of the collection, Stacy Keibler wore it when she visited Jimmy Fallon a few days ago.

Its color is defined as fuchsia, has 110 mm heels, costs $780.

—

The next one is the Surf, which has 120 mm heels, comes in nude color and will hurt your pocket as it costs $1350:

Thumbs up for Amanda Seyfried, good choice!

—

One pair really stands out from the crowd in my opinion, this are the wedge heeled sandals called Biel. The 110 mm high heels should not drive you crazy thanks to the design. You have few of colors to choose from though: blue or orange for $550, white with gold metallic heel for $580.

Brooklyn Decker wore both the Biel and the Anouk (120 mm, red, blue, black for $520, black  & white for $680):

—

Last but not least here’s Katy Perry and the fabulous Vibe. I think she really wanted people to notice her heels, and by getting them in blue and wearing with this dress she obviously find the way to get the attention:

—

That’s all at the moment, I hope you enjoyed this post and hopefully you also have your mind set on at least one of these pairs 🙂

Update on Yves Saint Laurent shoes

Since I haven’t really posted YSLs lately, it was high time to do a megapost with pictures of the famous Tribute pumps and other heels designed by the house. By now everyone knows that the Tribtoo simply cannot be hidden in the wardrobe, it is still “in”, especially because new, somewhat modified Tribtoos appeared in the stores – those are in this post as well.

YSL fans, enjoy! 🙂

The night begins (and usually ends) barefoot:

—

Jennifer Love Hewitt wears these golden YSL sandals often:

First generation Tribute platforms can still be spotted:

YSL Tribtoo pumps on Tamara Ecclestone and Lily Aldridge:

Sarah Michelle Gellar (5’2) and Amanda Seyfried (5’3) need those extra inches:

Paula Abdul went for a brighter color version:

Britney owns YSL boots, while Salma Hayek has a slingback Tribtoo:

Alexa Vega is a big fan for sure:

Last but not least here are the very good looking wedges, worn here by Mariah Carey and Emily Procter:

That’s it, come back tomorrow to see the new Model Monday post!

Winter? What winter?

It’s winter in many parts of the Earth these days – cold, wet, nasty weather to sum it up. Yet there are some lucky ladies who don’t face the challenges of this season or they are simply tough & they’re used to cold weather. These ladies and their shoes are presented in this post. Enjoy!

The first one is a really stunning one by Brian Atwood, just take a look carefully at the details!

It’s color is called “botanic mix”, and it has 14 cm heels.

Jess, you’re fab and nearly perfect, but please remove that effin sticker!

Now I have to post Louboutin again, I can’t help it.

The third pair by Christian Louboutin in this post is the Pigalle, worn here by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley:

The last Loubi in this post, the Toutenkaboucle was seen on Jennifer Lopez:

To be fair, there was someone who felt like it was time for boots. Megan Fox wore Christian Dior’s Intrigante over-the-knee suede and leather boots. It has a 13 cm high heel and costs a whopping $1.200:

—

As far as I remember, it’s pretty damn cold in England in December too, yet while I was wearing everything I owned because I was freezing, the locals were dressed like it was September in Sicily. That said, look at the marvelous Keira Knightley and her gorgeous outfit, including the Salvatore Ferragamo ankle strap heels:

—

Up next: Kate Bosworth in her Jonathan Kelsey pumps. Note the damaged heel:

—

These pumps look very similar to each other, but they’re not the same.

—

The last one in this post it Sofia Vergara wearing peep toe platform slingbacks by Giuseppe Zanotti and peep toe pumps by Stuart Weitzman.
