Trend Alert: Statement Shoes

Trend Alert: Statement Shoes

Anytime we are on the topic of shoes, I feel my heart beat faster, my pupils get wider and my palms getting sweaty!  Can you think of a sexier, more daring subject?
Recession be damned! Perhaps this year we cannot afford or need to buy as many pairs of shoes as we have in the past. It’s okay though…that one time you do decide to splurge on a pair of shoes, make sure you pick up a “show stopper”. That’s right! If you are going to cheat on your recession budget then it better be something that’s worth it. Words to keep in mind are “exquisite” and “extraordinary”.
Statement shoes are an absolute must have this spring.  Who needs new clothes when you can spice up any plain ensemble with these gorgeous shoes? Remember, a great pair of heels has the power of making your jeans and plain t-shirt look as though they’ve stepped off the runway.

Take a look at some of my favorites from Spring 09 Collections:

    Sigh… Definitely the Louis Vuitton ones. Those shoes make my heart skip a beat every time I see any from that collection. Yum!

    To wear, probably the Louboutins. To display in a glass cabinet as works of shoe art, probably the YSL cage booties.

I personally love statement shoes. the more statement making the better :o ), it seems fashion & shoe designers are pushing the boundaries of shoe design. There is so much going on each piece! I adore them all Mimi. Yummy post! Hope you are well my sweetheart.
