We've seen a lot of boot styles with thick straps running all the way down to the toe, but this innovative Michael Kors style converts the look to a shoe shape, and does it with great aplomb. The substantial, embossed buckles add heaps of class, and the heel is beautifully balanced.
The arrangement of the straps reminds us just a little of Louboutin's 'Bikki' courts, as worn here by Cheryl Cole. This is, of course no bad thing, and the look can be enhanced by wearing these shoes with bright red or check tights.
