Myleene Klass's best-kept shoe secret...

myleene_shoesecretpram.jpgMost of us have our own secret way of dealing with the excruciating pain that is often associated with wearing high heels. Whether it be packing an spare pair of flats in our handbags, or simply opting for taxis over the Tube.

Myleene Klass has her own secret to preserving her precious feet from the style demands of TV presenting - she always keeps a pair of comfy flat pumps in her 11-month-old daughter's pram.

"As soon as the cameras stop rolling I'm straight back into my old pumps," she told the Mirror.

Brilliant!

Ugly Shoe of the Week: 'Leora' suede and long hair booties by Sergio Rossi - as seen on Solange Knowles

solange-sergio-rossi.jpgSorry Solange Knowles - you looked fabulous at TRL in New Tork city this week, but your Sergio Rossi long hair booties have still earned their place as our Ugly Shoe of the Week, because ... well, do I really need to explain why? Personally, it's long been my belief that hair belongs on the head - or, if you're a shire horse, around the feet. Funnily enough, a shire horse is more or less what these boots remind me off, with the hairy trim helping to create the illusion of some thick fetlocks around the wearers ankles. It's not a look I love, but if you want to make like Solange and buy a pair of these for yourself, they're $910 and can be bought direct from Sergio Rossi.

Guess whose shoes?

purple_heels_guesswhoseshoes.jpgA bit of a mean one this week because the actress whose gorgeous purple heels we're featuring, is on a hit US telly show that hasn't erm, actually premiered in the UK yet. So while we don't really expect you to guess per se, we figured since you'll know her soon enough AND her shoes are super-gorge, they are worth posting anyway.

Where can I find Kylie Minogue's fringed boots?

kylie_fringeboots.jpg

With her European leg of the Kylie X2008 tour done and dusted, fashion favourite Kylie Minogue has been enjoying taking some time out to do the usual things - you know, like catching up with friends and family, going shopping in Oxford Street and getting an OBE.

Yep, the girl keeps busy. And even when she's dressed down, trying to dodge foot traffic and rubbish bins on Oxford Street, she manages to look amazing - check out those fringed boots! These particular ones are Gucci's Devendra Fringe Bootie ($1,250) but you could always take things one step further and go for full-on fringe by Christian Louboutin for $1,575. Otherwise, as another option, keep your feet planted firmly on the ground (and your bank balance in safer territory) with these flat Topshop fringed boots for £90.

Ferragamo who? Nicole Kidman sticks with RM Williams, thanks!

nicolekidman_rmwilliamsboots.jpgYou have probably heard the stories about Nicole Kidman commissioning Salvatore Ferragamo to design all her shoes for her role in the upcoming flick, Australia. (If not then read all about it on CQ).

But off-set, it looks as though the actress prefers to stick to more home-grown labels, namely RM Williams. She was spotted shopping with hubby, Keith Urban, in Sydney this week wearing a pair of the trusty bush boots with brown skinny trousers and leather jacket.

Nicole's preference are the 'Durak' boots, selling for AUS$359.95 online. Although an Australian heritage brand, RM Williams is available in the U.K. and U.S. (click here for more info). Check them out and starting thinking Aussie outback to get ahead of trend-set.
