Tuesday, January 26th, 2010Katy Perry in Dolce & Gabbana’s Suede Swarvoski Platform PumpI knew I recognised these shoes when I spotted them on Katy Perry at Haze Nightclub’s “Waking Up in Vegas” party (Um, spotted them in the photo, I mean. I wasn’t actually there, obviously…)! I showed you them back in August of last year: they’re by Dolce & Gabbana, and while I thought at the time that they were a nice use of the “studded with crystals” look, I also noted that they were pretty expensive, at $995. That’s not such an issue for Katy Perry, obviously, and if it’s not an issue for you, either, you can grab these at Neiman Marcus. What do you think of Katy’s look? Wednesday, January 20th, 2010Eeek!

Looks like Messrs Dolce & Gabbana are finding themselves inspired by faces, and particularly mouths, this season, because hot on the vertiginous heels of those suede face wedges I showed you earlier this week comes these lipstick courts. Which, as the name suggests, come with a lipstick attached to the toe. Well, it makes a change from a flower or a jewel, doesn’t it? I have to admit that the beauty junkie in me did briefly experience a moment of excitement, wondering if the lipsticks were real ones. Having established that they’re not, though, I just think they ruin what would otherwise be a rather lovely pair of black suede court shoes. Your thoughts?

That aside, the design of these shoes doesn’t really appeal to me either. Call me crazy, but I just prefer my footwear to come WITHOUT a face, and these obviously fall short on that score. They are, however, pretty dramatic: they have a 15cm heel and 5cm platform, and even without the face, they’d be striking. With it, you have a guaranteed talking point, which I guess is something, at least. They’re £709 and are available from Far Fetch.

These are another example of that trend, although the butterfly effect is far more blatant here than in the shoes I showed you earlier today. These shoes take a bit of getting used to: the embellishments on the front are pretty extravagant, and take up a lot of air-space around your feet, which I know will put some people off. If you’re not one of those people, though, the shoes are $675 at Endless.com.

I can totally see why Mousy liked these, though: of course the nude uppers and the bow would naturally appeal to me, too, although I think I’d probably prefer a finish other than lace. Still, a great shoe for a special occasion: they have a kind of decadent feel to them which makes me think of lingerie for some reason. That’s probably just me. If you love these too, they’re by D&G, and will cost you £350 from here. Tuesday, July 7th, 2009Dolce & Gabbana black, white and red peep toes on sale – but only in size 5
All day today I’ve been finding the most adorable shoes, all on sale… and all only available in a size 5. Given that I’m a size 4, this has made for a frustrating day, and I apologise if you’re now sharing that frustration, having realised that the shoes shown above are one of the pairs I’m talking about. I’m a sucker for shoes in a red, black and white combination, and when those shoes are Dolce & Gabbana, and on sale for £119 (which, OK, isn’t cheap, but isn’t bad for D&G), I’m guaranteed to be even more smitten. I especially like the shape of the heel on these, and although I generally prefer my heels skinny, I think this shape works much better than a stiletto would here. If you happen to be a size 5, you can pick these up at Yoox.com.
