Cheryl Cole looked in fine form as she rocked up at the X-Factor auditions wearing a pair of bold houndstooth-printed Louboutin Bikki pumps. Wearing a bright red dress that showed off her Killer pins, Cheryl had picked the perfect combination of patterning and plain colour for maximum effect.
Houndstooth made a brief comeback earlier in the year when Moschino and Alexander McQueen looked to Dallas for fashion inspiration and created some shoes that were kitsch and glamorous all at once. The pattern hasn't cropped up extensively since then, but Cheryl's shoes show how the style can be given a stylish contemporary twist in the hands of design genius!
