I’d say more about this, but I’m sitting here imagining what it would be like to spend $10,000 on one pair of boots, and to be honest, it’s making me feel a little shaky. If you want to go ahead and do, it, however, the New York city Saks is the only place you’ll be able to find these. You’ll find me, meanwhile, lying down in a darkened room. Most wanted from our sponsorsMiu Miu Leopard-Print Platform BootiesMiu Miu are still doing the chunky platform thing for Fall. And they’re doing it with leopard print booties. I think that’s all I really need to say about that, don’t you? What do YOU have to say about it, though? (Click here to buy them at Bergdorf Goodman)

Valentino peep toe rosette shoesI know Valentino like to stick to the same kind of style with some of their shoes, but I can’t help but love them for it, because it happens to be a style I wholeheartedly approve of! These peep-toe rosette pumps are just stunning: the pale pink colour is delicate and lovely, while the over-sized rose on the toe adds just the right amount of extravagance. Perfect for a special occasion, or even for a bride (look, I’m doing best to justify the $795 price, OK?), you can click here to buy them from Neiman Marcus: or even just to admire them from afar. I know I will. Alexander McQueen winged leather ankle boots
What do you think of them? They’re £705 at Net-a-Porter – click here to buy them.

Friday Night Louboutin Fix: Christian Louboutin Ronfifi Alta 100 buttoned bootsI’ve been banging on about the approach of winter for weeks now, so I thought I may as well bow to the inevitable and make this week’s Friday Fix a pair of boots. I know at least one person who loves Christian Louboutin’s Ronfifi Alta 100 buttoned boots, and, actually, better make that two people, because I love them too. The Victoriana feel of the multiple buttons and lace-fronts is just perfect for winter: all you need is a fabulous coat to wear with them… oh, and £1,070. Anyone else want to add their name to the list of those who love these boots? (Click here to buy them.) Vivienne Westwood Shoes: An Exhibition 1973- 2010This is one of the few times I find myself wishing I lived in London. Selridges is currently hosting an exhibition of Vivienne Westwood shoes, from 1973 to the present day, and the grande dame of fashion herself turned up to take a look at her work this week. Pictured above are the huge platforms which sent Naomi Campbell flying during a 1993 runway show. Take a look under the jump to see some more Westwood shoes through the ages… (more…) Kate Spade grey flannel ‘Bertie’ peep toe pumpsAs you may have seen from last week’s Louboutin fix, I’m really loving the idea of grey flannel for Fall. If the heel’s on those Loubs were too high for your tastes, however, Kate Spade’s ‘Bertie’ peep toes come with a more modestly sized heel which, combined with the small platform, should make them even easier to walk on. The grey flannel uppers are topped with a large flower embellishment, and if you’re thinking the peep toe isn’t too practical for the coming season, well, you can always consider wearing them with tights. These cost $340 and are also available with black suede uppers. Click here to buy them from Zappos. Bottega Veneta satin wedged ankle bootsWell, I guess it’s pretty obvious by now that I have an ongoing obsession with wedge shoes of all types, but, as winter approaches, with wedge boots in particular. It used to be the case that wedges were viewed as a slightly “sensible” option in footwear, but these days the wedge has suddenly gotten sexy, with designers realising that they can use all of that extra heel to create the most wonderful shapes and silhoettes. It’s the silhoette that makes me love these Bottega Veneta ankle boots. The fabric, however, I’m not quite so sure about: I’m rather struggling to see the practicality of a pair of satin boots, espeically ones with a £445 price tag, but if you have just the place to wear such a thing, click here to buy them from Net-a-Porter. | |||||||
