Mad About Shoes

We often see celebrities as our icons. Most of us have this notion that they can never go wrong anywhere. But of late we see celebrities going wrong, thanks to media! They only don’t go wrong in their personnel life, their choices but also with their styling sense. Let us start with Britney Spears; because she is the fashion faux pas queen of this season. Her clothes, her hair every single thing has gone wrong with her.

The fashion faux pas, we have observed lately are celebrities adorning winter boots in summers with summer dresses. Yeah! I know they are warm, comfortable, cool and cute, but these reasons are not enough to keep on hanging on to them even in the deadly summers. Look at her, she is wearing shorts and all summery clothes but the boots look awful indeed. She needs to get a few stylists for her hair, her outfits and etc...etc.

Doesn’t that look amusing? How can one wear uggs on a beach? Well, I guess Britney made a more justified mistake then Pamela Anderson. Take a look! She is wearing a swimsuit and wearing uggs too. I can’t do anything other then laughing!

Well, Kim Stewart, we don’t notice her so much! But this fashion faux pas is worth noticing. Whatever, I loved the mini she is wearing. The color is fantastic and so is her dress. I guess, its time to advice the celebs to keep their uggs locked in somewhere for a few months. After all we don’t expect such silly things from you all.

I just heard that there is a massive shoe sale going at Barney’s. The same moment, I rushed to have a glimpse and fetch some excellent pair for the forthcoming celebrations in my home.

And thanks God! As it happened to be the right place to hunt for a new pair for the coming Independence Day and other celebrations. Almost every style that I had dreamt of was available right underneath one roof be it is sky high heels, wedges or the platforms to choose from its vast collection.

All that designs and colors that I had longed but could never find were ultimately on sale. I am bit confused to choose between the Christian Louboutin red ($195) and white platform espadrilles ($165) as they both are appealing me and would look great with my outfit. I am considering picking both the pairs as I am getting a good discount.

So what are you waiting for? Rush and grab your favorite styles in best colors before anyone else grabs it.

A new trend is on its way but people hardly accept it. Some find it scary, for some it is comfortable and for some it is so out of fashion. And that is...the open toed booties. Those of you, who may shriek on hearing this, read no more. And those of you who are always interested to try new things, this one is dedicated to you.

If you do things and follow fashion that celebrities do, I have enough reasons for you to go for these open toed boots. The sexiest of celebrities like Posh, Lohan and even Jessica Parker have been spotted walking around in these. I didn’t find the concept so ugly, so, I guess I’ll try these out at least once. What do you say?

It’s the age of the convertibles, and the idea of having something that changes its shape and appearance is quite an interesting one.

Designer Sofie Collin has come out with one such interesting idea when she designed this convertible sneaker for Nike. The USP of Sofie’s design is the collapsible heel that caves in to give your sneakers a totally different appearance and purpose.

It has got no laces, hence you don’t have to worry about the situation going awkward once you fold down the heels. Besides giving you the dual-design advantage, the footwear appears to be sturdy enough to give your feet the desired comfort.

UK based car insurance company Sheilas’ Wheels has come up with ‘Sheila Driving Heel’ - a shoe with a new design idea that makes driving for women both fashionable and safe. This shoe can change from stilettos into a stylish pair of heels just with one push of a button.

Heels have no grip, can get stuck under the pedal , on the other hand, flat shoes reduces pressure on the knee and lower back and increases the grip on the pedals.

Jacky Brown, spokesperson for Sheilas’ Wheels, said:

It’s astonishing that so many women are putting themselves, their passengers and other drivers at risk by wearing the wrong shoe or no shoe at all whilst behind the wheel. Stilettos, sling-backs and strappy sandals aren’t the sensible choice when it comes to controlling a car.

According to surveys, two thirds of the questioned women admitted to driving while wearing heels and around a third had worn flip-flops. Around 18% had worn no shoes while driving, which is dangerous and is currently illegal in some parts of the world.

The survey has also discovered that there is a general lack of awareness among women with more than half of them admitting to have believed that sports trainers were the safest to drive in - in spite of their thick soles and plump design which restricts the control over the pedals.

This stilettos-heels shoe is a futuristic concept for sophisticated women. So Girls, start now and find your own pair!

An Italian designer designed this highly valuable shoe in gold under the invitation from World Gold Council. Last week, at a jewelry shop in Wuhu, Anhui Province an employee showed this luxurious shoe made from around 680g pure gold. Metallic shoes and handbags are in trend but pure metals ... make me think!

If my grandmother acknowledges this, she will be fuming because gold is a pious metal and it is not accepted if anyone adorns his or her feet with it. Somehow, with modernization, this thought is ruled over and you see many women prettify their feet with traditional anklets made of gold instead of silver. There is no word whether the shoe is for sale; however, I am sure it was a real eye-candy for you.

This week at 7 World Trade Center in New York City, John Galliano unwrapped his Cruise 2008 Collection for Christian Dior. Beautiful models appeared on clear white runway in bright colors, wide jeweled/animal print headbands, vintage cat-eye sunglasses and Indian-inspired tunics in the ready-to-wear line.

The collection is quite appealing but I’m sure like me even you’ll be flabbergasted to see these bubble peep-toes. Bright colors and unique style heels that make them my choice.

Glamour was sprinkled on the show with the presence of Kylie Minogue, Penolope Curz, Dita Von Teese and Alexis Roche.

Hey guys be careful when you wear these sky-high heels as something like this can also happen to you.
