On the same day we declared love for the Nicholas Kirkwood crackled metallic sandals, Freida Pinto was seen wearing the lizard version of them on “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart”:

Freida wore them with a gorgeous pistachio-colored Roland Mouret dress for her “The Daily Show” guest appearance. This color paired with the metallic sheen on the Nicholas Kirkwood sandals beautifully sets off Freida Pinto’s enviable glowing bronzed skin.

Here are Freida Pinto’s Nicholas Kirkwood lizard and mesh sandals from the Fall 2010 collection:

We think this crackled metallic gold version would work just as well with that pistachio-colored Roland Mouret dress too:

For a look-for-less option, we’ve always turned to the shoe label Velvet Angels for something Nicholas Kirkwood-ish because their styles have got the same edgy, sculpted elements without being total knockoffs.

And here’s a good example of that, the Velvet Angels ‘Falcon’ platform peep toe heels.

Do you agree that you could swap these Velvet Angels ‘Falcon’ shoes with the Nicholas Kirkwood sandals and still have the same fierce effect?
