Shoe Porn: Brian Atwood Drama Pumps

Shoe Porn: Brian Atwood Drama Pumps

Nothing says Shoe Porn quite like a pair of kill-ah Brian Atwood heels! These babies, “Drama” are just that… D-R-A-M-A! The Drama Pumps are closed toe platforms in patent nude leather with a contrasting heel that stands 140mm high (yeah baby!). When I saw these babies, the first thing that came to mind was Victoria Beckham (DUH). So, I Googled to see if she had a pair and, of course, Ms Becks does – we do have the same taste after all, she just wears the shoes and I write about them. Back to some dramatic dreaming…

Shoe Porn – Avante Garde Heels To Die For

Shoe Porn – Avante Garde Heels To Die For

Well it’s Shoe Porn Tuesday again, where we get to dream about fabulous footwear – without the guilt! Seeing as Shoe Porn is all bout dreaming, I thought today would be a perfect day to post some outrageously gorgeous heels. These babies are from the Avante Garde designer shows … prepare to drool! 1. Talk about serious heels. These are by Ruthie Davis and are called “The Spike/ Dark Gaga” shoe bootie embellished with Swarovski crystals and spike studs. It has five inch heel on a 1.5 inch platform. 2. Mohawks are back! Yves Saint Laurent Palais Mohawk suede pumps are suede pumps with goat hair fringed heels. Talk about freaky unusual and so fabulous! These babies are have six inch heels with a 1 inch curved platform. TDF (To Die For) 3. Ballerina with a difference. Check out these Alexander McQueen Titanic Ballerina Pumps. 12 Inches of pure McQueen brilliance with a heel that looks like Hannibal Lecter while the front is pretty as a ballerina pump, complete with the cute bow on top. 4. Drool! How sexy chic are these Christian Dior “Goddess” heels? I’d so wear them although I’d be scared I damage them. Perhaps these are…

It’s a thong story – Bronx Gladiator Thongs

It’s a thong story – Bronx Gladiator Thongs

I’m so glad that gladiator flats are still hot little numbers for Summer 2010. These flats from Bronx Ladies are stylish, sexy and perfect Goddess shoes. I shall call them “golden delicious” Take a look… Don’t you just want a pair? Of course you do! They are super comfy, super sexy and although they are reasonably priced, they look very expensive. They go perfectly with my skinny jeans, rolled up just slightly with the gladiators peeking out and revealing the gorgeous chain detail… I don’t usually like taking photos of my feet – I love shoes, but hate feet! These made my feet look so good, I thought what the heck! They also compliment my nail polish don’t you think? It’s Chanel Rouge Noir, in case you’re wondering. Im a sucker for wooden accessories this season. I bought this studded bangle last year and these wooden earrings the other day. Both are from Woolworths – and they match my shoes purrrrfectly!

Shoe Porn – Nicholas Kirkwood Leather and Lace Booties

Shoe Porn – Nicholas Kirkwood Leather and Lace Booties

Everyone who knows me or reads my articles knows I love shoes. For the whole of December (and yes I am starting early :)), every Tuesday Ill feature a new pair of #shoeporn, because even though we can’t have them all, a girls’ allowed to dream. Today’s Shoe Porn goes to these sexy Nicholas Kirkwood Lace Booties from his Fall/ Winter 2010 collection. I fell in love with them the moment I saw them in the September issue of American Vogue and couldn’t stop drooling – I’m sure you can see why! Duh These babies will set you back about R6K, but they are so well worth it. That’s if you are willing to sacrifice food for a little leather and lace and loads of oh-la-la! What’s it gonna be? ♥ Heaven would be these babies placed firmly on my feet ♥ Oh and, of course Sarah Jessica Parker would have a pair. SJP wore hers at Fashion’s Night Out in September 2010.

Summer Lust Lists – Justine Stafford

Summer Lust Lists – Justine Stafford

Journalist and former magazine editor, now founder of the Aficionado Network as well as being a well respected fashion and style blogger, Justine Stafford shares her summer lust list with us. You can tell by her list that she not only has style, but she’s savvy and sensible choo too! 1. Missibaba Leather Laptop Sleeve A leather laptop sleeve from Missibaba’s new S/S 10 collection to protect my new love: an amazingly portable 11-inch laptop – perfect for carrying in my handbag! 2. A Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1 My last digital camera broke and I need one on me all the time. This baby is tiny in size but big in performance with a super wide lens and large aperture which means it’s great for shots in low light – a dilemma I often face. 3. My indulgence: beautiful shoes Can’t stop thinking about these glitter-finish sandals from Jimmy Choo. Mmmn, they must be mine! Follow Justine on Twitter @ifor1 Want more lust lists?

These shoes were made for walking

These shoes were made for walking

Well, what do you know, another shoe post! I told you I was obsessed 🙂 I just stumbled across these fabulous shoes by Jessica Simpson and couldn’t resist sharing . I’m not sure if they are available in SA, but if anyone knows, you have to tell me! They are called Dany and they are perfect summer statement heels. The T-Strap style is made from leather, available in a variety of colours and the heel (which is my fave) is 5.8 inches tall. My kinda clog style! They do kinda remind me of the new babies I bought from Luella not too long ago… Also leather with a genuine wood clog, these Luella heels are super comfy and I love the nude tone that goes with just about everything. Plus, they were only R699 – not bad for leather, comfort and loads of sexiness! Next on my Luellu lust list are these… For more on the Dany shoes or to view the full Jessica Simpson collection check out her website jessicasimpsoncollection.com
