The Christian Louboutin resort collection is now available at Neiman Marcus, and of all the shoes in the collection, I picked these ones for tonight’s fix, purely because, well, these ones were the loudest. “Look at me!” they seem to be shouting, and who am I to resit such a request from a curvy, perfect pair of peep toes?
I suspect the colour combination will put a lot of people off with these: turquoise, yellow and white is a very bold combination (and I think we have to include the red on the sole here, too, because that heel is so high that you get to see quite a bit of it), but it’s certainly a refreshing change at this time of year, and rather appropriate for a resort collection.
These are $895: click here to buy them.

These Versace ankle boots are being filed under “Shoes a Young Child Might Like”.
Actually, I think little kids would LOVE these, especially considering that the uppers look a lot like a child was allowed to colour them in. That’s my way of saying this isn’t a colour mix I’d have chosen myself (although lose the green and red and we’ll talk. Actually no, sorry, I’m kidding: we won’t.), but it IS bold and, as Net-a-Porter say, “show stopping”.
The chunky shape emphasises the “drawn by a child” look to these, but the price isn’t exactly pocket-money friendly: they’re $875 at Net-a-Porter.

Wow, a pair of shoes by Gianmarco Lorenzi that DON’T come equipped with a platform so large the very sight of it gives you vertigo! Instead, these sandals rely on colour to give them impact, and mix bright pink, bright blue and orange. Three colours this loud, all on the same shoe, would normally have me reaching for my sunglasses, but the narrow straps save these from being too migraine-inducing, and they’re perhaps the first Gianmarco Lorenzi shoes I can actually imagine wearing.
What I can’t imagine is paying £504, but if you can, you can get them at Far Fetch.

By now, we’re all more than used to Gianmarco Lorenzi’s tendency to make super-high platforms, in a style that always looks more like something you’d see in an art gallery than something you’d actually see on your feet. I still thought these shoes were worth showing you, though, because they look even MORE like a piece of art than usual.
The heel is 6.2 inches, the platform is 2.3 inches, and the colours look like they were chosen by a small child, but even so, these shoes definitely have the “wow” factor, whether you mean it in a good way, a bad way, or just a totally astonished “OMG LOOK AT THOSE SHOES!” kind of way.
Which is it for you? If you love these, you can buy them at Far Fetch, where they’re £514.

I’ve been hankering for a pair of shoe boots recently, and as if by magic, ASOS.com added these ones to their website yesterday. Sometimes I swear they can read my mind, and figure out just how to tempt me!
As just £35, you’d be struggling to find a more affordable shoe boot than these, and the shape is very classic. I suspect the colour of the boot on the right of the photo above will put some people off and make others fall in love with it (I’m somewhere in between the two), but the patent taupe version is very wearable. I’m drawn to patent at the moment because it tends to be pretty waterproof, and God knows, we need that at the moment!
Like them? If so, you can buy a pair here.

The summer stock is slowly starting to trickle into my favourite stores at last. Normally this is cause for great rejoicing here in Shoeperland: I’m not a fan of the sales (Being a very common shoe size means that everything’s sold out in my size long before I get there, anyway, and I get bored with the lack of pretty new things to look at), and I AM a fan of all things related to summer, so this small sign that we’ve made it to a New Year, and are now headed in the direction of warmer weather is usually more than welcome!
This year, though? Not so much. We still have over a foot of snow on the ground here, which means that sandals like these ones by Giuseppe Zanotti are still a very distant dream: or at least they would be if I actually liked them. Which I don’t. Sorry, Mr Zanotti: maybe I’m just not ready for so many colours now that my eyes are used to the dull shades of winter… or maybe there are just a few too many gem stones on these yellow sandals. I suspect it’s the latter, but if you think it’s the former, and you’d really love to wear these, prepare for the bad news: they’re £1006. Gulp.
If you love them, you can buy them at Louisa Via Roma.

Oh. My. GOD.
There’s just not a lot else to say here, is there? And OK, I can’t imagine ever wearing them, but still: WOW.
Oh, and did I mention they cost £5,791? Well, they do. Now I REALLY can’t imagine ever wearing them.
