If I had a daughter that was as cute as a button, like Suri Cruise, I'd dress her up like a doll too. Complete with designer children's shoes, clothes and accessories, like these utterly adorable Gucci monogram baby shoes with their patent leather bow and little ankle strap. Sure, these shoes will set some yummy mummy back $245 but they would be perfect for a little girl who's eaten out of a silver spoon for as long as she could remember. You could always justify it by the fact that you would get a free tote bag with any kids' purchases over $175 at NeimanMarcus.com at the moment.

You never know when you might need a tape measure, so it helps to have a cute one in your desk draw for days when you need to measure heel heights, hem lengths or even the width of your handbag. What better pick than this Shoe Tape Measure from the MET Museum, decorated with some colourful shoes on display at the museum's Costume Institute collection of 20th century shoes. This silver plated shoe measure is only little and will cost non Met Museum members $20.
If you're thinking the picture above is just a rather strange looking stiletto, look again: the red rubber uppers are actually galoshes, which you pull on over the top of your shoes to give the soles a little more traction during slippery, wet weather, and to protect the toes from damage. Most of us will already be familiar with the idea of galoshes over flats, of course, but SWIMS, who made these ones, say they're the first ones made especially for high heels.
These come with low fronts to allow you to wear them with shoes which have bows, brooches or other embellishments on the toes, and the sole of each CitySlipper has the map of either New York, Paris or Tokyo on it. Interested? Find out more at the SWIMS website.

The housemates are on a house decoration spree, well you could probably call it an Ikea phase, and since I have to make a contribution, I went hunting for fashion-y home accents. On my online travels (who pops into stores anymore?) I came across this fabulous set of shoe magnets from the Met Museum online shop. Based on a French silk pump, an American rhinestone slipper and an Italian silk sandal, not only do these adorable magnets make me want to buy them, but also visit the museum's Costume Institute to check out the 5,000 shoes they house. At the affordable price of $19.95, who says you need to pay a thousand dollars for silk or rhinestone heels?
It was about this time last year that we featured the Stiletto Phone, and so it appears that the concept has come around again in the form of the High Heel Phone.
With technology chomping at the bit to attract more female buyers, this kitsch gadget is the perfect gift for the shoe obsessed friend/girlfriend/sister. I guess it's a bit predictable that it be in pink as well, huh? If it's your cup of tea, then order it now from Gadget4all.com for US$22.

How cute are these Miss Sixty New Orleans seam socks? I haven't worn knee high socks since high school when they were mandatory with our school uniforms, but there is something rather appealing about these grey socks with a contrasting red seam running down the back with the Miss Sixty logo scrawled across it. Somehow these socks are sexy and chic at the same time, only I wouldn't know what to wear them with unless I was on the set of Gossip Girl.
