She wore her B Brian Atwood pumps while on the ‘Late Show with David Letterman’ and the Louboutins after the show. I really like her outfits for this evening. Take a look at both.

This is the ensemble that Sarah wore on the show. I love this look and these heels. They’re called the ‘Blayne’ from B Brian Atwood and they’re available at Nordstrom as well as ShopBop. Let’s take a peek at look 2 for the evening before we examine her heels up close.

This is the ensemble that Sarah rocked after the show. I’m really crazy about this look; however, I can’t find these heels anywhere. What a bummer, right?(If any of our fellow shoe followers have spotted these on line please share. Our feet will thank you.) Nonetheless, Sarah knows how to choose a fun but sophisticated heel and really catch some attention with her sense of style.

Now, let’s take a closer look at her B Brian Atwood pumps.

B Brian Atwood ‘Blayne’ in Black and Gold USD350

I love the gold accents on the heel of this peep toe pump. It worked perfectly with Sarah Michelle Gellar’s dress, but could go with a ton of other outfits as well. Envision them paired with black trousers or denim and a shimmery bronze tank. Pretty, huh?

All in all I think Sarah knocked it out of the park on this evening. What do you think?

She was recently spotted in a pretty pair of Giuseppe Zanotti cap toe pumps outside of ‘Good Morning America’ in NYC, and the look suited her perfectly. Check it out.

Doesn’t she look very pretty and polished here? What do yo think of these contrast toe pumps from Giuseppe Zanotti? I could see them paired with other prints and patterns like blue and pink plaids or maybe even an orange floral. Envision these paired with a coral colored jumper or sundress. Pretty huh?

Rachel also wore these heels in the February issue of Glamour Magazine. In this ultra sexy shoot Rachel sports the pink and white version of these pumps. I really love the color of this pair and could see them with endless spring and summer ensembles. Pumps are definitely the most versatile and effortless heel out there. Take a look at Rachel’s Glamour Magazine look.

See what I mean when I say ultra sexy? Rawrr. These pumps have such a classic Marilyn Monroe feel that works so well with Rachel’s innocent but sexy appeal.

While I couldn’t find either of the exact airs that Rachel wore above, I did find this equally as pretty cream and pink version at FarFetch.

Giuseppe Zanotti Contrast Toe Pump USD463

So, what do you think? Are you still into the cap toe trend? If so, would you sport these beautiful pumps? Check out all of Rachel McAdams looks here and tell us how you feel.

I love everything about Gwen’s look here. It’s no shocker though, because I almost always adore Gwen’s outfits. She looks so fresh and fun yet classy.

I’ll call her look here Chanel meets the Ramones. Her black and white jacket has a sophisticated feel, but her black leggings and open toe booties add a hefty dose of rock and roll inspired edge. Let’s take a closer peek.

What do you think? Do you love Gwen’s look as much as I do? I really don’t think that she could have paired a better boot with this look. I searched high and low for the exact same pair that Gwen rocks here, but I  couldn’t find them anywhere. I did, however, find them in lilac and lavender at ShopBop and grey python at FarFetch. Check out these options and imagine the possibilities. It will amaze you.

Maison Martin Margiela Ankle Boots in Grey Python USD873

Imagine these babies with a pair of black skinny pants, a fresh and breezy white top, big bold sunglasses, and plenty of wrist candy. Pretty awesome huh?

Maison Martin Margiela Ankle Boots in Lilac USD835

Maison Martin Margiela Ankle Boots in Lavender USD835

Are these more colorful options great or what? I could see them with an all black or neutral blush tones ensemble and fun statement jewelry. They have such a great fun runway vibe that I can’t get over.

So, how do you feel about these boots in general? Is the black a better color for this style? Tell us if you’d rock these Maison Martin Margiela boots like Gwen.

Mariah Carey was seen in Aspen, CO wearing sandals; and Rooney Mara was spotted in open toe pumps and bare legs while out in New York.

Mariah Carey sported these Yves Saint Laurent sandals in chilly Aspen. She tried to warm the look up a bit with a black trench, but I would have preferred to see her in boots and a trendy fur vest here. I mean, it’s Aspen. Rock the chic snow bunny look Mariah!

In this shot ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ star Rooney Mara was spotted out in NYC wearing these open toe Brian Atwood heels with bare legs. I love Rooney’s look here, but think she should have kept it closeted until warmer weather hits.

Other celebs have been seen in summer appropriate sandals in New York even more recently. Emmy Rossum was seen in these Christian Louboutin ‘Summerissima’ sandals outside of ‘Live with Kelly’. While I adore these beautiful heels, I still think celebs should stop rushing the seasons and enjoy winter dressing while it lasts. It’s the season for layering! Why rush it?

Then we also found sightings of Jessica Alba in a pair of Barbara Bui sandals (not yet available on line) from the Spring and Summer 2012 line while out in NYC. While I’m a huge fan of Jessica’s ensemble, I think a pair of black booties would have been a better option here.

So, what’s your opinion of celebs wearing sandals in the winter in cooler climates? Do they pull it off or just look a bit crazy? Tell us how you feel.

Shopbop already has a good enough inventory to choose from. From their list, we narrowed the selection to ten.

One a side note, one thing we have noticed is that the sandals this coming season are less strappy, more feminine, and most follow a certain silhouette – single band or just two crossed bands at the front with a strap around the ankle or the back; quite simple yet at the same time, sexy. Also, there is a lot of color, from brights to intense neons. Of course, the usual thong and a few of the gladiators in neutrals and blacks are also among the choices.

Here are those ten (10) fresh sandals for you. Have a look and tell us which you’d love to snag for spring:
