Open Letter to Santa - a „short” list of shoe cravings

Dear Santa,

This year I've been a really good girl and I deserve to be rewarded in some way, don't you think? I made a really tiny list of what I dream of at this moment. It's all shoes, of course. You could bring them all, but I won't mind if you send me at least a couple of them. And just so you know, most of the online shops have free delivery and discounts for Christmas, so hurry up!

f/w couture 2010 is here!

As you may know, Paris has recently been the place to be as the designers' creme de la creme have shown their couture collections for the 2010 fall/winter season. Here's a selection of most of them, as far as shoes are concerned:

Elie Saab couture f/w 2010
very architectural and clean

Chanel fall couture 2010
Karl Lagerfeld delivers some slouchy nude calf boots, not necessarily my favs

Dior fall couture 2010
These are, as far as I am concerned, the best ones from these couture collections: colourful, intricate yet simple, with a bit of an edge and classy

Jean Paul Gaultier fall couture 2010
jpg uses for his shoes some kind of patchwork effect and croc patent - i like the design, but not the patchwork

Valentino fall couture 2010 -
mad about the combo the designer pulled off: lace bows,low heels and leather

Which one's your favourite?

Stud Mania!

Studs and spikes are very common on the catwalks and on every designer shoe these days. The rock-chick trend is so accesible that you can show your badass attitude even through some nice spiked/studded shoes.
Here are my picks:

Christian Louboutin St Jeanne 85 studded pumps
(see them here on net-a-porter)
Christian Louboutin Clou Noued 150 studded slingbacks
(find them here)

Giuseppe Zanotti studded gladiator heel sandal
(here on net-a-porter)

Valentino f/w 2010 studded high heel shoes

they also come as flats


Dsquared2 s/s 2010 platform studded sandals

dsquared s/s 2010 again, but in the PVC boot version

Maje studded leather sandals

Oscar de la Renta studded leather platform sandals
(find them here)

How much of a badass can you be? Which one do you like best and would wear without hesitation?
