| Three sons of the master keep on developing their family business, which is very successful and prosperous. For over a hundred years Gina shoes are a model of quality and style for elegant, stylish and refined women. Each new pair of shoes from Gina is a new miracle – feminine lines, elegant shapes, trendy designs, exotic materials, tremendous beauty. It has as many advantages as I can find adjectives to describe them. Among Kurdash family’s clients there are some celebrities. You can see in the picture above Kim Cattrall in glamorous red heel from Gina. Or have a look at another picture where Paris Hilton is posing for Tatler. Guess whose shoes did she prefer for an event? |

| The latest Gina shoe collection is even more sensual and feminine than the previous ones. Most shoe models in the collection are made of python leather, but I wonder that each model looks unique and different from any other. |

| To my mind, the designers took into account the lifestyle of modern women who are always on the go. That is why the collection includes not only high heels, but also platforms and comfortable low heels. Other models are trimmed with luxurious stones or satin inserts. I am sure that each woman who loves elegance and style must have at least one pair of Gina. It is the right choice for a party, a red carpet, an evening out, and many other special events. |

| The distinctive feature of the company is that its designers always follow the fashion but they do it carefully. I would say they are reasonable about everything they create.

The secret of Timberland’s popularity is in quality, style and comfort. The most used colors are neutral: white, sand-colored, khaki, classic denim and blue. So if you try Timberland’s shoes, you will love their unique comfort and style forever. |

The Legendary Manolo Blahniks
The shoes created by this designer are always easily recognizable – they have a tapered toe, a spike heel and something really unique in terms of colors, fabrics or decoration. Manolo Blahnik has been creating shoes for over 30 years now, and has developed his own special style. Yet, the designer is not ready to follow the known trail and is still experimenting, seeking exclusiveness and art in every shoe pair.
Manolo Blahnik, who is half Spanish and half Czech, has graduated from a university in Geneva, then studied design in Paris and started developing his own shoe styles in Britain.
Initially the designer also tried himself in clothes design. However, when he showed his work to Diana Vreeland, a legendary editor-in-chief of the Vogue magazine, she advised him that he worked with the shoes only. In 1973 Manolo Blahnik opened his first boutique in London, which until today remains the favorite place where all the designer’s fans from the entire world like to purchase their shoes.
The most famous Manolo Blahnik shoe is a spiked heel pump.
Manolo Blahnik usually uses classical shapes as a basis for his shoes, then adding some unusual elements, painting them bright pink, for instance, or decorating the straps with small pompons.
For more casual designs, Manolo Blahnik prefers bright green crocodile skin, supplementing them with funny stings.
Sedara 1991 shoe is also incredibly popular among women. This shoe is a combination of black silk, purple sateen and a large brooch with sparkling stones.
Manolo Blahnik is the brand that is famous throughout the world. However, up until now the brand only has one designer – there has never been more. The man who created the brand continues doing the work all by himself.
Saying that Monolo Blahnik shoes are popular among the celebrities is saying nothing. Almost everyone on the famous horizon has at least a couple in their possession. But of course the most famous fan of the shoe is Sarah Jessica Parker from Sex and the City, whose fascination with Manolo Blahnik almost turned the shoe into another character on the show.
