I realise that as a Shoe Superhero, I’m morally obliged to make super-villains my mortal enemies, no questions asked, but I just can’t do it in this case. I probably wouldn’t wear these sandals (I have a feeling they’d look a little odd on an actual foot), but they make such a striking silhouette that I actually find myself quite charmed by them. If you do too, they’re by Marc Jacobs, and they’re £420 at Colette. Most wanted from our sponsorsFriday Night Louboutin Fix: Christian Louboutin Bow T Dorcet pumps
They’re now down to $361 at Barney’s, so it’s no wonder that they’re sold out in most sizes. (Sorry if I just got your hopes up, there.) These would be the perfect evening shoes, so if you do manage to get your hands on a pair, treat them well, and tell them Shoeperwoman says “hi”… J by Jasper Conran Black ‘Sloane’ laser cut suede court shoesAn easy way to make a black pump a little more interesting, from Jasper Conran’s line for Debenhams. At £45, these are inexpensive, and would make a great work shoe, assuming you have the kind of job that makes black pumps the perfect choice, of course! Now, if they only had them in a nice, bright blue… Gina ‘Belle’ Swarovski crystal wedge peep toesLeave it to Gina to add a big old dollop of Swarovski crystals to the humble wedge! Of course, there’s really nothing “humble” about these wedges at all, is there? With crystals all over the heel and sole, it’s a good job the uppers are super-plain, or it would be all too easy for these shoes to be mistaken for some kind of disco ball. As it is, they’re the kind of evening shoes you’d wear if you wanted people to stare at your feet, rather than your face all night (handy if you got a huge spot on the day of the party, I guess!). Oh, and the kind of shoes you’d wear if you were willing to spend £875 on them. Are you? Get them here if you are. Rupert Sanderson double buckle gladiator sandals
These don’t look particularly “gladiator-like” to me, but I’m not going to quibble over the name when there are beautiful shoes to be looked at, and anyway, if ALL gladiator sandals were as gorgeous as these ones, I’d be a very happy Shoeperwoman. Of course, the combination of black and gold on a shoe has always been one of my favourites, but these are particularly nicely done, and are dressy without being fussy. The strong lines of these, plus that shiny gold, would make these perfect with a simple dress: they’re £693 at Louisa Via Roma.

Metallic heel peep toes by Jaeger LondonJaeger isn’t a brand I generally associate with fabulous shoes. In fact, I’ll be honest: it’s a brand I more often associate with smart suits and sensible midi-skirts. It would appear I’ve misjudged Jaeger, though, because just look at these black and gold heels! Aren’t they amazing? That gold heel is just so striking against the black suede, and I also love the chunky shape. Such a simple idea, but so beautifully executed that I can’t help but want a pair. Now. These are £170, and if you want a pair too, you can buy them at My-Wardrobe. Button mid shoes from Next in red and black patentI’ve tried to resist commenting that these shoes are “as cute as a button”, but it looks like I can’t manage it. Forgive me. It IS true, though. Over-used as it may be, I think the word “cute” is very fitting here: the patent uppers and white piping give these a sassy feel, and, me being me, I really appreciate the dots and stripes on the insole, even although no one would actually see it when the shoes were on. It’s a shame Next didn’t provide a larger image of the red version of these on their website, because those are the ones I’d go for, but I’m sure you get the idea even from this tiny glimpse of them! These are just £26: get them here.

Faith Chevelli knot-front suede court shoes
Orange is this season’s hot colour right now (no pun intended), but as much as I love the shoe on the left of this photo, I also really like the black version on the right, which would make an elegant pump for work, or for anything you want to look a little bit “smart” for. Lovely.
