You know, it’s my birthday next month. Could someone get me Miranda Kerr’s legs, do you think? No? OK, how about just the shoes, then? These look like YSL’s Tribute pumps to me, and they’re something of a celebrity shoe staple these days, popping up everywhere from red carpet events to a function at a Bondi Beach restaurant, which is where Miranda wore them this week. She’s gone for the slightly risky “high heels/short skirt” combo, but I guess when you’re a Victoria’s Secret model you can get away with things like this, hmm?

While we’re on the subject of Yves Saint Laurent, which we were a bit earlier today:

Yeah, that’s what I thought too. By which I mean: “I have absolutely no idea WHAT to think about these”. But I think the huge platform trend should maybe come to an end. Maybe soon.

Just when I thought the cage trend was starting to die out, along come Office with their ‘Spider’s Web’ boots. Not a direct copy of the famous YSL cage boots, these could be more accurately described as “designer inspired” than many of the shoes I feature in this column, and I actually think they’re a lot more wearable than the originals, too. They are, however, very like the Topshop and Steve Madden cage boots which were available earlier this year, so I wonder how many more high street brands are going to bring out their versions of this style?
