Designer Boots, Sandals & Shoes for Women
While we can all appreciate a glittery pump, a jewel-encrusted sandal or a sky-high stiletto, we’d all still pass them over for a sturdy, sensible and comfortable shoe if we had to choose one to wear for everyday. And for this fall/winter season that’s getting increasingly colder and colder, we can’t choose a better everyday go-to shoe than a good ol’ trustworthy boot!
Check out our top 5 picks for boots this cold-weather season, all guaranteed to be able to take ...Read more
The spotlight is really on the ankle bootie this fall/winter season. There may be more material and surface area to play with on mid-calf, knee-high or thigh high boot, but designers are really showing what they’ve got on the much shorter and smaller ankle bootie!
From rugged to chic to girly, ankle bootie choices now run the gamut in design, silhouette and heel height. Ankle booties are also the perfect pairing with the hot corduroy and flare jean trend. Even if ...Read more

Intrigued by the Solestruck ads featuring Tess Pare-Mayer of The Little Black List, we set up an interview with the vintage-loving, accessory-piling, individualistic style-setting NYC-based fashion blogger to ask her how that collaboration all came about.
We definitely got more than we asked for because not only did we get a peek into her life as stylist-slash-model-slash-fashion blogger elite (to name a few of her titles), but we also got a peek into her very envy-inducing shoe closet. Tess gamely shared with ...Read more
‘Tis the season of rich, romantic and luxurious fashion trends and spearheading them all this fall 2010 is velvet.
Fashion designers whose aesthetics range from the edgy and masculine (like Alexander Wang) to the womanly and sexy (like Rachel Roy) all adopted velvet for their fall collections, and turned the once stiff and restricting fabric into designs that are elegant, modern and so very covetable:
Antonio Berardi, A Détacher, Anna Sui
D&G, Halston, Giorgio Armani
So now we’ve got velvet jackets, velvet skirts, velvet ...Read more
The studs on shoes trend from late last year is still going strong this year that sometimes it feels like it’s here to stay.

This is a can’t-miss ...Read more

It’s the battle of the blondes whose names start with H here:

I’m sure you’ve noticed by now that I like writing about strange looking shoes. Today is all about furry and fringy boots from Capelta. Why am I writing about boots when it’s the dead of summer? Well, these shoes are really quite interesting. Besides, you’ll never know, there might be someone out there bold enough to actually want, buy, and wear these for winter.
