Shoe Porn: Louis Vuitton Beaded Fringe Artifice Ankle-Strap Sandals

These Louis Vuitton beauties scare me a bit. Satin, with 4.4 inches, with a padded insock and a leather sole, this shoe isn’t really higher than any of the other shoes we profile, but something about them makes me think I’d go tumbling over the moment I attempted to walk in them..

The beads are beaded by hand into what LV calls a “zebra-stripe pattern,” fitting the rest of their safari theme currently. There appears to be a teeny bit of zebra on the beads so I guess that’s how they are tying these sandals into their safari theme. Wild heels are what they have right now, just like the zebra printed heels we showcased a while back.

Shoe Porn: Camilla Skovgaard Ankle Boots

Camilla Skovgaard shoes consistently put out affordable, stylish luxury footwear. She has yet to put out  a ho-hum collection since she debuted her signature collection in 2007.  We expect greatness from the icons like Louboutin or Zanotti, but other designers are known to disappoint from time to time, but not Camilla Skovgaard.

These designer shoes are simple, yet eye-catching thanks to the designer’s signature rubber saw plateau, the boots are utterly sexy with their 5-inch heel, and the nude color will transition well from summer to fall. They are leather with a clear, rubber sole to prevent slipping. The platform is 1 inch so it will feel like a 4 inch heel. $620 Available here.

Not quite as high as we like them round these part, however these 4 inch Brian Atwood sandals make us feel downright dainty.  The iridescent pink and dainty straps make them ultra feminine and the secure ankle strap and modest heel make them perfect for dancing, ir just looking extra pretty for a night out on the town.

These Brian Atwood’s are rose toned glitter sandals with skinny straps and partial mesh inserts. There is a crystal-embellished buckle on the ankle strap. They have a rounded cap, a peep-toe and a leather sole and in-sole.  They are $849.

Shoe Porn: Louis Vuitton’s Wildly Playful Zebra Heels

Oh My Louis Vuitton! This is such a departure from your other shoes, I don’t even know what to say! I’m surprised these even made it to a drawing board, let alone past one! Tiger-colored zebra shoes? My Goodness! When did Louis get so funky?

The zebras feature 4.4-inch heels, pretty little Strass crystals, Strass-encrusted buckle accessories, leather soles, padded insocks, and fabrics including suede and silk. These are featured on the website, but they are not for sale online. But if you can afford $1,540 zebra shoes from Louis Vuitton, take a visit to the LV boutique on 57th street, where they are available.

Collections: Fendi Shoes Fall 2011

Generally I like Karl Largerfield’s design aesthetic. However the Fall 2011 RTW collection for Fendi leaves a lot to be desired. Lagerfeld was inspired by the painter Dadaist: a buttoned-up-to-the-neck art teacher who was wild only with her art. Her style was strict but lived-in, and she wore Mary Janes with woolen tights bagged slightly at the knee. Translation: Dowdy, and thats what I think about the shoes in this collection.

There is nothing flattering about these shoes. The chunky heel makes them schoolgirl-ish, awkward and makes your legs look thicker.  However, they are much better than the low heeled, androgynous, oxfords that seem to be the “in” thing for Fall this year.

Shoe Porn: Christian Louboutin Slingback Peep Toe Pumps

Did you know that Christian Louboutin classic collection shoes sell out within days all over the world? It’s true. The more glamorous, seasonal shoes also sell fast, but not nearly as quick as the basic pumps. Black and variations of nude colors lead in the sell outs, which makes sense because they are the most versatile colors. These beauties are currently available, but I wouldn’t wait if I were to snag them if I were you.

These designer shoes are black leather slingbacks, with a peep-toe. The ankle strap has a leather covered side buckle closure. They have a slightly square cap, leather upper, in-sole, and signature red sole. They have a 4.5 inch heel and a 1 inch platform.  $845 Available here.

Collections: Chanel Shoes Fall 2011

Chanel has unveiled their Fall 2011 collection shoes and it seems they forgot they were making shoes for women. These suckers are just AWFUL. I don’t understand how anyone thought these bad boys were a good idea and deserved a place on the runway let alone some poor woman’s feet. I’m not a fan of androgyny. These shoes aren’t even really androgynous, they are menswear in smaller sizes. No thanks. I will pass. Dare I say that Lagerfield is losing his touch?
