There’s always room for more shoes

26 Feb

I hope you’ll agree with me on this one when you finish reading this post 🙂

Bally is a brand for sophisticated people; Jennifer Aniston was more likely to wear the shoes from Switzerland than Lady Gaga:

I think Charlotte Olympia works by the motto “don’t change a winning formula” and she really sticks to it. She designed those sky-high platform pumps a few years ago, and she only changes the “carrosserie” since then. Works every time!

There are fake Charlotte Olympia shoes all over the world, the pair worn here by Katy Perry is no exception, so be careful if you buy heels online.

Rebecca Romijn wore Balmain sandals a few weeks ago:

Rachel McAdams has chosen these pointy toe pumps by Jimmy Choo:

Lea Michele decided to wear Jimmy Choo at the People’s Choice Awards:

However, Lea’s heart belongs to Casadei. It’s not the first time she wore these pumps:

It’s been a while since I last posted Rupert Sanderson shoes. Amber Heard wore the Estelle sandals to the Michael Kors show at the New York Fashion Week:

Walter Steiger is back in the game too. Malin Akerman has recently shown her love for the brand on two occassions:

Victoria Beckham even collaborates with Walter Steiger. She tweeted: “Walter Steiger for #victoriavictoriabeckham -presenting tomorrow! X vb”

Two days later, she wore those ankle boots to the launch of her collection:

This is it for now, here’s the posting schedule for this week:

  • Model Monday (surprise) on Monday with pictures from London and Milan
  • Giuseppe Zanotti post on Wednesday
  • Christian Louboutin post on Friday
  • Best of February post on Sunday.

 

 

Charlotte Olympia – 2011 in pictures

21 Dec

It’s been a while since the last post including shoes by Charlotte Olympia, so I looked for some pictures that I haven’t posted so far and now I share these looks with you. Of course, there have been a number of CO shoe sightings, like this one here, but today I’m dedicating the whole post to the English designer.

The trademark platform – it really makes these shoes special!

Celebrities like Katy Perry, Sarah Jessica Parker and Blake Lively are big fans:

Sylvie van der Vaart loves these heels too!

Rosamund Pike wore Charlotte Olympia at the photoshoot & the premiere too!

German TV host Mareile Höppner and the pregnant Hilary Duff are next:

As you know, Kelly Ripa is big fan of shoes, she likes CO in particular:

As the designers webpage says,

“With a design philosophy focused on femininity and inspired by the allure of glamour of old, Charlotte Olympia designs have become synonymous with classic shapes and meticulous attention to detail. Each shoe is handcrafted in Italy using only the finest materials and is finished with the brand’s signature gold spider web on the sole.”

Let’s hope we see more and more spectacular shoes in the future!

Sweet like sugar

Attention shoe addicts, you might find yourself shopping online after reading this post 😉 Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you.

“Shameless” star Emmy Rossum sports Stuart Weitzman booties. Love.

Katie Price in Brian Atwood? We’re more used to a Katie-Aldo cooperation.

♥♥♥

Katie “Juliet” Cassidy in a very spectacular pair of shoes, made by Casadei:

Emma Stone can’t be scared away from these fierce Lanvin heels. Breathtaking.

Amirite? 🙂

Uniqueness vs. popularity: platforms

6 Jul

There haven’t been too many shoes by Roberto Cavalli on my blog, which makes this pair pretty unique:

15 cm heels,  4 cm platforms, € 745 (ca. $930) – definitely a nice design!

I’m a big fan of Charlotte Olympia‘s work, despite we can’t spot her shoes too often.

15,5 cm heels, 3,5 cm platforms, € 670(ca. $840) – it isn’t cheap either.

Talk about expensive and really high shoes; here’s Fendi‘s trademark pair of this summer:

Now it’s time for the über-popular shoes by Sergio Rossi. I’ve written about it here already, but now I had to feature these pairs in my post again since they have flooded the streets (or at least the red carpets):

I hope to be able to post on Thursday again, you might want to drop by 🙂
