Stuart Weitzman Manoman cutout oxfords add some sex appeal to the menswear classic that is currently so on trend. Pair with a flouncy floral mini.
The Madden Girl Kobiee pumps sport cutouts and ruffles to add a girly touch to a sheath dress at night.
These Tom Ford Claudia sunglasses feature oversized frames (so Hollywood!) along with the tell-tale cutout detail at the temple.
If you haven’t noticed, shoe embellishments are everywhere. It’s almost impossible to find shoes with no embellishments this season. Studs, jewels, feathers, fringe and more. We’re seeing embellishments on ever type of style from sandals to pumps. It seems designers are really going wild and having some fun with their new creations. What do you think of this latest trend- Like it or not?

I’m a great lover of shoes. Not only because they serve a very important purpose, but many times because of their sheer beauty. Some shoes are definite objects of art, and you can tell designers have gotten their inspiration from the art world. Not only are they creating functional footwear, but are also true artists themselves. Here are a few of my favorite ‘artful shoes’.

So I guess there haven’t been enough Crocs-related accidents to justify shutting them down. Only 77 escalator entrapment incidents reported in the US and 65 in Japan. A three year old girl got “severely and permanently” injured when her tiny pink Crocs clog got caught in a JFK escalator maiming her toe. Undoubtedly, there are a lot more cases that never made the news, yet millions of Crocs continue to be sold and exported. But instead of banning these hazardous sandals, they give us escalator safety tips. How many more little mangled feet will it take to take Crocs off of the market? Don’t get Croc Attacked, get even!
You’ve heard me bash Crocs on more than one occasion, so you know my stance on the subject… nuff said.
