Zandra Rhodes is taking her next step after her collection for M&S by launching a footwear line for Strutt Couture. The legendary British designer has unveiled a bright capsule range of slashed le and laser cut-out leather booties and heels that will launch for spring/summer 2010.
"It was particularly exciting designing this collection because I haven't designed shoes in so long and I believe that it's shoes that finish an outfit - we are now more aware of footwear than ever before," she said.
Just like her pink hair, Zandra has created a pair of acid pink slashed booties (pictured), which will retail for £160. Stay glued to www.struttcouture.com for more details.
Angeline Tournier is a fairly new addition to my shop browsing activities, but I'm really impressed with their girly twist on the fairly unglamorous trainer.
These bling-tastic heart trainers on the right are £189. We featured the silver versions back in 2008, which featured a red heart.
Pop them on your Christmas list. After all those Christmas dinners and chocolate treats, you'll need something pretty impressive to persuade you to hit the gym.
They've also got some pretty ballerina flats too, which you can see below.

After reading Red Carpet Fashion Blog's post about Christine Centenera, Harper's Bazaar Australia's uber-stylish fashion editor, my eyes were immediately drawn to her shoes. Captured by StockholmStreetStyle, the Aussie looked fab in a pair of powder blue Givenchy studded zip sandals which she teamed with a grey marl ensemble. Now you too can get your hands on these eye-catching Givenchy sandals for €1125 at Luisa Via Roma.
Okay, so she's not exactly the first person who springs to mind when thinking about wedding shoes. However, I must say that Paris Hilton hasn't done too badly here.
Consisting of just four styles (and a lot of bows) the socialite is expanding her footwear line to bridal. They aren't exactly amazing, but for a decently designed shoe with a girlie edge you can't overlook a couple of her designs for $120 a pop.
My favourite would have to be the Regal ivory peep-toe shoe (pictured) with pleat detailing and satin bow. The range is due to launch this month - visit My Glass Slipper to pre-order yours now.
Lordy, would you take a look at this!
Our pals at Nitro:licious have just posted a preview of Louise Goldin's spring/summer 2010 range for Topshop. And can I please say... "fierce!"
Available in black and silver, each shoe features spikes, studs and other rock star metal materials. Let's face it, these are definitely some heels not to be messed with.
No word on price or release date, but you can guarantee they'll soon be spotted on the feet of some our favourite celebs. I want!
If I could pick out a 'dream shoe' for this year - a style that I wouldn't expect to wear on more than a few special occasions but would savour every moment when I did - then I think Guiseppe Zanotti's star-embellished peep toe pumps would have to come top of the list.
I'd never spend over £600 on a pair of party shoes of course, but we're firmly in fantasy territory here and that's where these shoes should probably stay. But suede and starbursts are a look that we admire, and I hope to see some convincing 'homages' soon!
£679 at Farfetch
Statement heels really are here to stay, and here's another variant on them that I haven't spotted before. US underground and retro store Modcloth has come up trumps with these frilled shoes, which are set off by a distinctive 'unicorn horn' style heel.
I'm a big fan of frilled edging on shoes, but have to admit that the trim on these is a little extreme; certainly more so than on these ASOS pumps, which we raved about earlier in the year. But nothing about these shoes is subtle, and that's really part of their appeal. I think they'd look wild with a leather skirt and floaty blouse.
