Enjoy Top 10 Weird Shoes
| In my opinion, shoes are necessary for people to feel comfortable, stylish, and, of course, not to go barefoot. But when I saw the pictures of these shoes my understanding of the whole fashion industry has turned upside down and now I do not know what shoes are supposed for. Here is my gallery of the weirdest shoes I have seen: |

| I know that we live in the epoch of high technologies. Spy gadgets, potent skyscrapers, smart houses, and now hi-tech shoes. I wonder if the alarm rings, what does the owner of the shoe do? |

| We all are meant to follow eco friendly tendency. Green cars, green clothes, stationary, bags and shoes. To tell the truth, I hoped that following the trend we will not be supposed to return in prehistoric ages. |

| And this one… I do know what to say. Shoes are designed to prevent everybody’s eyes from seeing such a horror or on the contrary? |

| The designer of this shoe must miss a lot the epoch of Inquisition and tortures. Anybody else want to join him? |

| Would you think of this curved piece of material as a shoe if I have not mentioned it? Personally, I would not. |

| Man and nature are very close to each other, they are even closer than you might think. Look at these shoes. Do not they make you think about some poor animal? |

| Some renowned designers decided not to be aside the tendency and created these weird and incredible shoe models. You can see in the pictures works of Alexander McQueen and Nina Ricci. |

| What a great option for rainy days. At last somebody thought about functionality and not about trends. |

| Active people who love jogging and running will obviously appreciate the gadget. Such shoes are perfect for you though it look quite weird. |

| And the last weirdness for today is this “boot” if it can be called so. Well, it must be perfect for severe winter and… remote village where nobody will see this. |
A Close Look at Alexander McQueen Masterpieces
| I have already described the last collection created by the designer in Alexander McQueen: The Last Collection of the Master. So you may wonder what to do it again for. In fact, then it was a short review of the collection in general, and now I would like to focus on the shoes presented in the collection. I will remind you that Alexander McQueen searched an inspiration in romantic Byzantine culture and art. |

| These shoes are considered to be one of the best works of McQueen. Heels and platforms seem to be made at the jeweler’s. When you look at these heels, you feel hypnotized by their beauty and proximity to historical art. In the picture below you can see a heel with little and exquisite statuette of the Winged Victory of Samothrace that is of the major interest. Her huge and beautiful wings became a point of departure for designing the silvery shoes. |

| A superior shoe model in the collection is golden ankle boots that feature precious décor. Bright and flamboyant ornament made from bugle beads and crystals is perfectly paired with a fashioned heel and a platform. They supplement one another in its best way. Flashy decorative details balance a leather part of the shoes made in neutral tints. |

| And the lat ankle boot I would like to pay your attention to is a black ankle boot created in a recognizable Alexander McQueen’s style. They have a golden detailing and small snap fasteners. A gorgeous “winged” trim of the upper part makes the boot look gorgeous and unique. It goes without saying that Alexander McQueen was a very talented person whose works were able to impress the pickiest fashionista. |

Spring-Summer 2010 Shoe Trends Review
| As spring is at its height, and everyone has already got rid of boring and heavy winter clothing and footwear, it is high time to make a resume about what shoe trends are really popular this season. You may wonder why I like to talk about it now, as everything has been discussed a month ago or even earlier. The point is what we talked about then were pure predictions, and now we can see true facts. So, what is going on in the fashion world this spring, and what actual shoe trends are? |
![]() |
| Platform Sandals. These shoe models have been popular for more than a season now, but that does not mean that platform shoes are not fresh and trendy. On the contrary, feel free to wear a pair from the previous season and stay fashionista. |
![]() |
| Mary Janes. In spite of rapidly changing fashion trends, Mary Janes are still in fashion due to their unique comfort and elegance. There are always women who need and love to look elegant even on hot summer days. |
![]() |
| Stiletto Heels. I consider such trends to be imposed by fashion designers whose shoe collections 99 per cent comprise of stilettos. No doubt, there is hardly anything sexier and trendier than a pair of sky-high heels but are you ready to suffer to look like Posh? |
![]() |
| Wedges. I have always thought about them as a perfect alternative to stiletto heels. Mush more comfortable and as stylish and elegant. Specific of wedges change from season to season: the mayor difference consists in color decisions, platform shape and materials. |
![]() |
| Flats. It goes without saying that flats are the very best option for hot days and active people. So, if you are always on the go, what do you choose – sexy heels or trendy flats? Besides, the range of flats is superb now. |

| Sheer & Nude. That is the novelty of Spring – Summer 2010. Only some time ago we looked at such shoes with crazy and surprised eyes, while now take them as the latest trend of the season. |
S/S 2010 Baldinini Special Shoe Collection
Each designer makes his collections unique and original by adding something special or inventing a new idea. The Spring – Summer 2010 Shoe collection from Baldinini proves that. I have prepared a lot of great pictures that represent the designs offered by the brand. Enjoy them!


There is in the collection a series of light boots and booties designed specially for warm seasons. If you remember, the trend has been popular for several seasons now but, as we can see it is not going to lose its position. My attention was driven by a pair of vivid flamboyant boots with tribal prints. Wild and animalistic patterns are really popular this season.


The range of strappy sandals is also impressive. Here you will find both stylish stiletto sandals and gladiator looking models on a low and flat sole. The straps the sandals are trimmed with are quite unusual: they seem to be braided in some unusual way.


There are a lot of white colored perforated boots, ankle boots and sandals in the collection. That is the best option for hot summer. Besides, such shoes look gorgeous, bright and trendy.
In another picture you can see a ranger of stripy shoes. High heeled ankle boots, sandals and pumps are made of leather in white and beige color, and feature nice small buckles and bows.


The collection features ballet flats as well. Though they are rarely presented in designers’ lines this season, their popularity remains very high. And there are evident reasons for it: stylish look, ultimate comfort and ready to wear design.


I would like to pay your attention to original heels that are half sporty half chic. Their surface is perforated, and the upper part is trimmed with shoestrings like a running shoe. But glossy inserts and a high heels evidence the opposite. By and large, Baldinini shoe collection is very practical and stylish.
