Alexander McQueen may have just wowed us at Paris Fashion Week, but he isn't too happy with Steve Madden. The designer has filed a lawsuit against Madden for knocking off his 'Faithful' bootie. The complaint cites Madden's 'Seryna' bootie as a "studied imitation" of McQueen's design which debuted in January.

It looks like another Lohan is jumping on the fashion design bandwagon - lucky us!
It has been revealed that Dina Lohan, mother of Lindsay, is breaking into the shoe design business. But wait... it gets better! She plans to call her new line, "Shoe-Han" (*cringe*).
The announcement comes just days after Lindsay made her Paris catwalk debut by unveiling a collection for Ungaro (she was artistic advisor, whatever that means!) Dina's shoe range will be sold via LoveMyShoes.com, and the outrageous celeb-mum will also be the brand's spokesperson appearing in TV and radio commercials. I can't wait to hear what you think about this one.

When I see these beaded sandals by Antik Batik, I immediately think "music festival". That could also be down to the fact that as of this Saturday, I am Spain-bound, with the Benicassim Festival at the forefront of my mind. And I must say, I'm a little disappointed I only just found these shoes on the Thursday afternoon before I fly out - there is no chance I will be able to receive these in time.
Oh well, there's always next year! The good thing about Antik Batik shoes, is they are always boho (not just trend-focused) and therefore, they'll still have a pair of festival-worthy sandals for me in 2010. If you've got a festival on the horizon, and enough time to wait for shipping from the US, they're on sale (though which shoes aren't these days!?) for the really amazing price of $173.60 from Shopbop.

Britney Spears has reprised her role as the face of Candie's for the fall '09 campaign. Currently on tour in Europe, the singer also wears Candie's clothing, footwear, and accessories in her new music video for "Radar." Despite what seems like a major Photoshopping job, a rep for Britney claims this is not the case. To prove this point, two comparison shots were sent to Perez - click here to play spot the difference.

Thanks mainly to Yves Saint Laurent's cage shoes, cagey cutouts are happening all over the place. And since we do like ourselves a good cutout, we feel now is probably the right time to say, "thanks Yves Saint Laurent". And since we can't afford YSL, someone else we should be thanking is Jeffrey Campbell, who has hopped on that cage cutout bandwagon big time, with these suede peep-toe booties.
Unlike the YSL ones, they're slouchy - which I really like - and have a wooden heel, which is also really cool. I also think the fact they have what the site describes as a "padded footbed" makes them sound like a dream. You don't have to say anything more - I'm sold. They're $188 from Free People.

They might well be the most expensive pair of trainers you'll ever encounter, but even if you still wanted a pair of the Kanye West-designed kicks from Louis Vuitton, the bad news my friend, is you can't. They were on the shelves for a day and they've already sold out! Well, that's the gist of the story anyway...
The Cut blog reckons there has been a waiting list since January, and since they closed that, they have been taking names for a wish list. Which would mean no shoes were ever going to hit the shop floor. Oh well, they're still good to look at and If It's Hip, It's Here has allllll the pics, so head on over there and knock yourself out!

All this sunshine we've been having this week has been making me long for the weekend like never before - and for a yummy cocktail to be planted firmly in my hand as I take in the views on one of London's lovely rooftop bars.
What I'll need on my feet however, is a pair of shoes that are equally glam, and will lift my spirit as equally as the glorious sunshine has. I believe these geometric gem T-bar sandals by DSquared will fit that bill extremely well. And then I can focus all my attention on deciding which cocktail I'd like to try first... Ahh decisions, decisions! They are on sale now for $831 at Zappos Couture.
