Nautical platform sandals from Stella McCartney

nauticalstellamc.jpgAnother pair of nautical heels. Yup, it's the summer trend that refuses to die.

These Stella McCartney platforms are an excellent reason why this is a trend that should stick around though.

Featuring a canvas boat print, patent red contrast strap and a killer heel, these babies will go perfectly with a flirty halterneck dress and a patent clutch. They're also in the sale, reduced from £387.

Stella McCartney Nautical platform sandals, The Outnet, £193.50.

Camilla Skovgaard Saw pump

www.farfetch.com 2010-6-14 22-10.png

Part classy pump, part killer heel, this Saw pump is the definition of a fierce pair of heels.

London-based Camilla Skovgaard's now signature saw-style sole has been seen on an assortment of his heels, and adds a tough urban edge to an otherwise average looking shoe.

Camilla has previously worked with Matthew Williamson, and has won countless awards for her quirky designs.

Dream on Monday: Tabitha Simmons lizard pumps

tabitha-simmonds-shoes.jpgAt first glance these shoes appear to sparkle, and one assumes that they are made from some sort of sequin or crystal-embellished fabric. Not so: they are made from perforated lizard leather. Magic or what?

Made by Tabitha Simmonds, a stickler for detail if ever we saw one, these shoes are every bit as decorative and elegant as we've come to expect. I'm told there's a lottery draw on Wednesday, if you're keen...

£1,300 at Net-a-Porter

Strutt Couture Lady Cross Front Heeled Shoe

*Sigh*

These are a really beautiful, really well sculptured pair of shoes made for strutting the streets.

They're from Strutt Couture and look even better when they're worn. I'm not quite won over by the peeptoe, but the cutout detail at the back could be enough to win me over.

It's completely cut out at the heel though, so you might want to make sure your feet are in top condition..

Strutt Couture Lady Cross Front Heeled Shoe, £220

Nicholas Kirkwood for Liberty collection

nicholas-kirkwood-liberty.jpgA "collision of cool" is what we'd expect to see when two of the hottest design brands around (in this case Nicholas Kirkwood and Liberty) join forces, and so far that's exactly what we've got. Kirkwood's iconic shoe designs are acting as a canvas for the unmistakable floral Liberty print, which looks just incredible on this platform style.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Liberty of London's Carnaby Street store, a range of Kirkwood shoes have been given the flower power treatment. Nicholas Kirkwood chose two signature floral prints, the Bounty and the Santa Maria (pictured) and covered his signature platform heels in the prints. This style is all we've seen of the collection so far, and we're absolutely salivating for the rest!

Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr in Georgina Goodman

jessica-Szohr (Gossip Girl).jpgGeorgina Goodman is one of our absolute favourite designers, and her slinky, sexy heels are second-to-none. It's great to see them being put to good use on the feet of a star like Jessica Szohr, who was seen striding confidently along in a pair of GGs at the at the opening ceremony of the 50th Monte Carlo TV awards at the weekend.

Goodman's shoes are glamorous and stylish but always individual -- never generic, making them an ideal choice for a star like Jessica. The gold peep-toes with black piping made a striking finish for her gold dress, which didn't quite grab our full attention despite being somewhat daring!

£485 at Georgina Goodman

Miu Miu homage to Michael Jackson collection

miu-miu-mj-collection.jpgThe glittery jazz shoe will forever be associated with Michael Jackson, and in honour of the King of Pop's career, Miu Miu have designed these dazzling brogues and loafers, all encrusted with grosgrain glitter. You won't be seeing the shoes in shops any time soon, but the OSOYou girls spotted the shoes on their recent trip to New York with HP.

It's a good time for Miu Miu to be bringing out the unisex styles, which come at the height of our obsession with boyfriend shoes for the girls, and slightly androgynous-looking ultra-long shoes for the guys. Just coming up to a year since Jackson's death, it's already clear that his legacy won't only live on in his music, but in his inimitable, unmistakable sense of style.
