| You might have noticed that the catwalks were awash with leopard print for Fall –Winter 2010. Christian Louboutin, Balmain, Roberto Cavalli and Jimmy Choo all presented their updates on this classic print. Now the leopard print is everywhere from ballet flats to fur boots. In fact, some fashion experts say that animal prints have become virtually timeless, especially in accessories such as shoes. Some even judge them just like basic black shoes, something that is timeless and matches nearly everything. |
 |
| Leopard print shoes for women seamlessly shifted from trendy to iconic. However there is a huge risk that makes it tacky instead of glamorous. The trick to wearing leopard print shoes effectively is to know your limits. To start with, you might wear only one printed item, for example an animal-print belt, scarf, handbag or shoes. |
 |
| Another option is to wear two different animal prints at the same time, like a lovely pair of leopard print shoes with a zebra-striped handbag. But this seems far more difficult to do without looking excessive. |
 |
| The little black or red dress goes perfectly with the classic leopard print pumps. Besides, the type of fabric should complement the finish of your leopard print shoes. And remember to keep accessories to a minimum. Wear classic pieces in platinum or white gold. |
 |
| As you can see the majority of celebrities own at least one pair of animal print shoes as wearing them women look more confident, vivid and seductive. Worn in the right way, leopard print can ooze luxury and add instant sex appeal. |
 |
| Kate Hudson, Christina Aguilera, Kate Moss, Kim Kardashian, Paloma Faith and many other famous singers and catresses have been showing us how it’s done by brightening a plain outfit with a splash of print on their shoes. From trendy to classy, leopard print shoes have become an icon for femininity in fashion. |

| One of the best ways to stand out and even shock is your footwear. If you put on any of the shoes listed below, you will definitely be in the centre of attention and discussions. If it is what you need, choose the best option for you, if not, just enjoy the pictures. |
| • Form & Texture Shoes. This is the shoe designed by Andreia Chaves. It exhibits a disciplined study of form and material while keeping just enough chaos to stay interesting. The contradiction here is the seemingly indestructible framework fused with the disorderly arranged leather and sycamore wood cubes. The contours create a theatrical statement nothing short of impressive. |
 |
| • Illuminated Shoes. London based famous shoe designer Nicholas Kirkwood is known for extravagant approach to fashion. Recently he has created a series of illuminated high heel shoes for Rodarte’s Fall – Winter collection 2010/2011. |
 |
| • Flower Shoes. While these are definitely not everyday shoes, they would be lovely for a bride or brides maids. They were debuted as part of Scherer Gonzalez’ 2009 Spring collection. The ultra-high heels have had the clear hollow space in the platform bases stuffed full of blossoms and petals. Additional fresh flower stems and leaves decorate the ankles and wrap up the models legs. |
 |
| • Candy Shoes. Sarajevo designer Belma Arnautovi? has created a collection of shoes including these candy-filled heels. Inspired by candies and cakes, these conceptual shoes for girls are completely wearable. The designer aimed to produce eccentric unique pieces that bear symbols of fun, dreams and candy perfume. |
 |
 |
| • High Tide Heels. The best option for the sexy scuba diver. The high tide shoes appeared on catwalk show for Mercedes Australian Fashion week 2002 at Bondi Iceberbs. Nice idea actually. Great for crazy fashionistas who don’t want to be seen without heels even at the beach. |

| All fashion designers have already presented their collections for Fall – Winter 2010/11. So it is high time to tally up everything we have seen on a catwalk. Below are the most popular and interesting shoe trend for a season to come. |
| Fur boots. Winters are getting colder over the globe recently, so the trend looks quite attractive and practical. Besides, if you wear fur boots by Chanel or Lanvin you will feel not only warmth and comfort but looks of admiration too. |
 |
| Laced-up boots. Laces are getting very popular. Such footwear is very comfy and looks great, but taking it off can be a problem. The best laced-up boots were presented by Fendi, Givenchy and Erdem. |
 |
| Shoes with buckles. It is a surprise to see shoes with buckles on a catwalk. Spring and summer footwear also featured this detail. Now the trend is gaining power and popularity and the slogan for the seasons to come is ‘the more buckles, the better’. Though they might bring the same problem as laces, I personally do not see it as a problem. Instead, the greatest advantage of buckles is that they look extravagant and interesting and provide great support and fixation for the foot. |
 |
| Chunky heels. Although stilettos look glamorous chunky heels are much more comfortable. And plenty of women prefer being safe and comfy rather than sexy and scared of falling down. Besides, nobody says that wearing chunky heels you will not look sexy either. Just try the boots featuring chunky heels by Michael Kors, Versace or Ivatore Ferragamo and you will obviously love them. |
 |
| Unusual combination of colors. Fall is a rather gloomy season, so all you need is to brighten it up. To brighten up our footwear designers have chosen the technique of combining colors. Yellow goes together with brown, red is mixed with pink. More variables are possible. |

| Once again we turn our attention to one of the best fashion designers in the industry Christian Louboutin. The point for heightened interest is Clou Noeud 150 Studded slingbacks. The shoes have been worn by so many celebrities, I’ve honestly lost track. Some of them (Dakota Fanning, Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Heidi Klum and that is only beginning of the list) you can see in the pictures. |
 |
| And now a little about details. The leather slingback pumps feature a heel that measures about 150mm, or 6 inches and a 30mm, or 1 inch platform. By the way, the pumps are named after heels’ height. They sport a peep toe and a signature red soles. The distinctive feature of the pumps is silver tone stud embellishment and a leather bow at front also adorned with studs. Slip on these directional heels to add edge to every outfit. |
 |
| You might have noticed that celebrities wear two versions of the Christian Louboutin Clou Noeud 150 Studded slingbacks. Those who prefer rck chic style and want to make an emphasis an their power choose black pumps. Whilst women who prefer to stay elegant, classic yet modern and stylish choose a pastel pink version. |
 |
| The Clou Noeud 150 Studded Slingback has been spotted all over the red carpet in recent weeks, on women of every age, size, shape, and color. Though the shoes appeared in stores last week, they’re already sold out. And fashionistas do not even pay attention to $1,195 price tag. |
 |
| Clou Noeud 150 looks super chic, edgy, and neutral tone means they go with practically anything but still have some major wow factor. What is more, the pumps make legs look longer and slimmer due to high heels. No doubt, it is a must have of the season. |
