Fall-Winter 2010/11 Camilla Skovgaard Shoe Collection
As a rule on the eve of every season we expect with impatience collection from world known designers whose unusual shoe models impress our imagination. Nevertheless, I would not like to focus only on them. The protagonist of today is a shoe designer Camilla Skovgaard whose each collection is different from the previous one. Besides her every new shoe collection is even bolder, unpredictable and vivid that the one before. Here I have got some pictures of her latest collection for Fall – Winter 2010/11.
When you look at footwear made by Camilla Skovgaard you can feel incredibly innovative approach in every detail – in materials she uses, in finishing elements, complex architectural shapes. Actually, I cannot image her shoe lone without sophisticated architectural designs – that is like a signature of a talented designer.
The hit of the latest collection are doubtlessly Chinese shoes. They feature wooden platform with fanciful protuberances that look like square heel that go at front and rare part of the sole.
Then go exquisite shoe models with sophisticated design and unusual finishing decisions. Take a look at the ankle boot presented in the picture. A futuristic platform, an elegant high heel, mild bright color and gorgeous finishing make the model stand out of the crowd.
I cannot but driving attention of fashionistas who prefer comfortable wedge booties to the booties below. These wedges made of luxurious suede look so comfy and warm. In spite of being one of the most popular trends of several seasons, ankle boots from Camilla Skovgaard are unique in some way.
And the last but not the least shoes for today are thigh-high boots in leather and suede variants. They are inspired by the Middle Ages but a high heel and a platform add a modern look to them. As for me, in every shoe presented in the collection each one is gorgeous, unique, elegant and modern.
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.
