Found using our frighteningly addictive shoe search facility (seriously, you can lose hours to that thing) these amazing platforms by Chloe are just fabulous, aren't they? Now, '£225' and 'bargain' aren't words I generally use in the same sentence, but in this case I think it's totally justified, especially given that there's still a wide range of sizes available, and you're unlikely to find a pair of genuine Chloe shoes for less than that.
These would be the perfect, show-stopping shoes for a summer holiday, with the tan leather looking great against bronzed skin, but I wouldn't be averse to the idea of wearing them this autumn with a pair of thick tights underneath. For some reason, purple is calling out to me, but you may have other ideas. If you like the style, you'll find more of the same here.

Exotics aren't just the 'it' thing in bag-land right now. Nope, they want to be on your feet too and I can't think of a better way to get in on this, than with Alexander McQueen's python peep-toe pumps in petrol.
The cut-out detail on the toe is simply divine and the five inch heel and one inch concealed platform will have you commanding attention from up high! The only bummer thing about these shoes (apart from the £595 price tag if that is beyond your means - which let's face it, is true for most of us) is due to restrictions on exotic skins, they can't be shipped outside the EU. Good news for European fashionistas, not such great news for those of you stateside.

Since around about this time last year, we've been seeing lots of designers bring out high heels with massive bows on the back - probably influenced by Christian Louboutin's famous 'Anemone' pumps. If you liked that style but don't like the heels, however, Tibi's 'Mimsy' flats could be the answer - the bow is still big, but the heel is not, so you'll be able to walk in them for longer than those Louboutins at least.
This isn't a style that appeals to everyone, of course, but if you find it appeals to you, these are $329.95 at Endless.com.

The first I thought when I saw these Pedro Garcia 'Kirsten' heels, apart from 'oh goody they're on sale', was - 'aren't they just the spitting image of Miu Miu's pearlized paillette pumps?' Of course, the Miu Miu pumps are made from sequins and not silver metallic python, but you get where I'm coming from, right?
Anyway, the best bit about these heels is that they are currently half price at My-wardrobe.com. I'm a bit of a sucker for that snakeskin look, and this silver pair could easily see through me many glitzy occasions. Reduced from £360 to £180, they are food for thought in these credit-crunching times.

We seem to have developed a bit of a red theme here on Shoewawa today. It's entirely unintentional, I promise, but there's just something about red shoes (and boots!) that makes them extra special, isn't there?
These ones by Alexander McQueen look like shoes from a fairytale, and they have a fairytale price to match - £925. They're very sparkly and special looking, though, and had Cinderella not had a preference for glass slippers, I can well imagine the price slipping her feet into a pair of these, can't you?

Wonder Woman! Well, that's what I think of when I look at these red knee high boots by Maison Martin Margiela, anyway. In my case that's actually a good thing because I spent a good chunk of my early childhood dressing up as Wonder Woman on a regular basis, and some of her "style" has clearly stayed with me into adulthood. I can see how the red of these would be just a little too bright for some people, though, even if the gorgeous demi-wedge heel wins their approval.
If you're with me and think these would be just the thing to indulge your superhero fantasies in, they're £655 from Browns.
