The Baby Phat 'Rose Ankle' Sandal
. This $83 contribution to the Simmons empire (damn you and your millionnaire husband and million dollar fashion empire, Kimora Lee) comes in silver, gold, yellow, blue, lavender...the list goes on. The front has a little rose on it, and the straps have matching leaves. They're the ultimate in OTT glamour. How could you not love them?
You can blame the lack of posts today on these Babycham graffiti velcro trainers (£29.99). I spent the day doing what we at Shoewawa like to call 'research' (alas, other people tend to call it 'shopping') and our shoe-fiend friend spent all day trying to decide whether to buy these or not. £3o may not be a lot, but she had already bought two pairs of shoes already. I only bought one, I'm so proud of myself!
This eBay watch is slightly special because we’ve cheated a bit. This week sending you to only one seller...but with very good reason!
The ‘My Shoes’ campaign aims to raise awareness (as well as funds) for MS. The charity has persuaded loads of celebs and shoe designers to part with pairs of their fave shoes to auction off online between now and 28th February. You can get your hands on footwear from celebs like Andrea Corr, Ricky Gervais and Dougray Scott, or bid on designer classics like these stunning Olivia Morris wedges. Emma Hope has even donated a voucher so you can choose your favourite pair from her current collection!

We've decided it's time to start a new 'ugly shoes' category. We come across so many ugly shoes when doing the rounds on the net that it seems a shame not to give them their five minutes of shoewawa-shaped fame. There's even going to be an 'ugly shoe of the week' on a Thursday! We've decided to start off the with Anne Klein New York's 'Chilly' ($128).
We completely understand the comfort factor of this one, but when you start looking at a granny shoe like this and liking the look of it, it may be time to schedule an eye test. The sole alone is enough to have us running for the hills!
Shoewawa goes back to business as usual as London Fashion Week comes to a close. It's been a wonderful week, but we have some killer blisters as a reminder of the busiest week in the British fashion calender. So what better way to get back on track and put Battersea behind us than with some eye candy designer flats from across the pond? This is the 'bettina' shoe in aqua from Hollywould. $445 buys you blister free celebrity glam. But where's the fun in that?
We love Viva La Diva. No sooner have we mentioned a designer than their shoes start appearing in the couture section. It happened with Olivia Morris, Georgina Goodman and Rupert Sanderson, and there are faves like Beatrix Ong and Emma Hope up there too. Whether this is down to coincidence, savvy shoe knowledge on both parts, or the result of those Divas being big Shoewawa fans, we don't know. But it's great. Especially since we've just found out our latest London Fashion Week discovery, Adele Clarke, will be selling through the site. Pictured is a snap of her Spring / Summer look book, and the kind of styles you can expect. Click it to enlarge.
The girls at Ghost has some of the best shoes of all the London Fashion Week shows, courtesy of a Shoewawa favourite, Olivia Morris. The models (including LFW it girl Lily Cole) were kitted out in tie-front heeled Mary Janes in shades of brown, mustard and burgundy, or tan calf-length Victoriana boots with laced-up fronts and cone or stacked heels. These complimented the draped jersey dresses, quilted velvet coats and boho embroidered pieces in shades of deep red, purple, brown and orange perfectly. Stunning.
