Say my name

The colour gold has figured prominently in my mind for a few months now and these shoes are calling to me like sirens to sailors. Soft gold colour? Check. Demure feminine shape? Check. Sparkle? Check. Aileen? Right here! (See?)

Studs and snakes

I espied some sunshine over the past weekend and couldn't get over how cute these shoes are... The material is suede-like and there is a snakeskin print as well. The style is surprisingly comfortable despite the height so it's too bad my size was sold out!

Cartoon footwear

I love shoes and sly references so it's no wonder these gorgeous pumps gave me heart palpitations! Handmade using leather, this adorable homage to Popeye's girlfriend is truly a wearable sculpture.

Last dance with Mary Jane

Heels are known for making legs look longer and the illusion is enhanced when they are nude. I love how the shiny patent leather dresses up these simple mary janes:

Maneater footwear

Guess who picked up these killer booties earlier this afternoon... Me! I love the strap action and can't wait to wear them out!

Something's afoot

I have put myself on a budget freeze for about a week, but it doesn't mean I have stopped appreciating beautiful footwear. These gorgeous stilettos remind me of elvish jewellery and I want a pair!

Xene from Ted Baker

Fit for a princess

It's not often that I go completely gaga over a shoe design, but this is one of those times. I spotted these golden beauties today and can't get enough of the oversized double bow. I like it a little better when the assymmetrical bow lies flatter, but this way they resemble a butterfly too.

Rain, rain, go away

Whenever I feel like checking out some unique shoe designs, John Fluevog's creations never fail me. Mostly I just ogle the fun shapes and heels, but sometimes I spot something I really want. These yellow patent leather boots definitely fall into the latter category!

Pink'd

These shoes may look like a mohawk, but when they are worn the pleated ruffles hug either side of the foot for a sexy fashion statement!

Getting ready for fall

I love shoes. But I am very picky about comfort and arch support and non-slippery soles, as well as style of course. So when I saw these today I knew I had to make them mine. One day...

A way to show off that pedicure

My friend Gurvinder introduced me to Giuseppe Zanotti shoes while we were travelling in Croatia (Split to be exact) and I think these black booties are rather fabulous. They are like the lovechild of a zebra and a paper lantern and are super duper sexy:
