| The shoes designed by Balmain have always been popular and trendy, but the season to come their popularity has surpassed all expectations. Everybody talks about the collection by Balmain. On the one hand, fall is not going to come so soon and summer is in its full swing, but on the other, we all expect it with impatience due to novelties and pleasant surprises from our favorite designers. Would you like to get to know what the chief designer of Balmain Christophe Decarnin will offer his fans and all fashion lovers for fall 2010? Here you are. |
 |
| The designer has taken into account that fashionistas have got tired of chic rock style, and he shifted to the concept of elegant femininity that can be both extravagant and strict. I did not expect to see pony style boots that feature leopard print. By the way, leopard print return on the peak of popularity every other season, so such boots will be not only extravagantly beautiful but very practical. |
 |
| I personally admire sandals that are meant to be the hit of the fall 2010. The front part of the heels is embellished with lace bows that look like a coquet lacing on a corset of the 18th century. The lacing is a part of the latest trend for boudoir shoes that I described yesterday. |
 |
| The boudoir trend can be seen in the following shoes. This is a pair of elegant boots made in black. The distinctive feature of the boots is unusual combination of materials – thick shining material is mixed with sheer inserts. The boots feature an elegant lacing that goes along the front part. |
 |
| I feel sure that lots of fashion lovers will find something special and unique for them in Balmain shoe collection that stands out by its elegant style, extravagant details and fabulous designs. |

In general, Fall 2010 footwear collections from renowned fashion designers are very different and have some interesting and unique traits.

| The season to come designers want to see an elegant and exquisite woman that has nothing to do with gloomy and rainy autumnal days. That is why they have decided to make exquisite shoes from lace. If you remember a year ago they had a similar idea but then the shoes features only inserts from lace. Now the entire surface is covered with fabulous and thin material. |
 |
| To tell the truth, I cannot imagine now how such an exquisite trend will come into our daily life. I do not mind the idea at all, on the contrary, I love it, but I see such a shoe very impractical. However, they look impeccable and fabulous. Here you can see some beautiful shoes that represent the idea. |

| Dolce&Gabbana offered sheer ankle boots made from fishnet and elastic lace. The booties are made in black and feature a high heel. Casadei presented shoes, the entire surface of which is trimmed with lace, even the heel and the platform. |
 |
| The version from Giuseppe Zanotti looks very similar to the one from Casadei. The difference is the heel is not covered with the material and there is an open toe. |
 |
| The most vivid and unusual boudoir shoe belongs to Givenchy. The boot is made in scarlet red hue and features a retro style lacing. The heel has a triangular shape and is covered with lace too. |

It is good news for people who try to protect nature that more and more fashion designers are paying their attention to ecological issues designing eco-friendly lines of clothes, shoes, accessories and bags. Though the number of such designers is not impressive, the fact of green awareness most of them show from time to time also has an important meaning for the idea. |
Recently a world known and respected fashion designer Manolo Blahnik presented a new line of eco friendly shoes to celebrate the Earth Day and to support the ‘green’ idea. The line includes open toed ankle boots and comfortable flats. The ankle boots feature a high heel and a small lace. It is made of soft and elegant suede and available in two color options: in green, of course, and in classic black hue. The black version represents the Earth Night. You cannot deny that the booties look fabulous, especially when they were exhibited with vine wrap ankle straps. The booties were inspired by the Roman Goddess of nature Flora. The soothing hues of crème and beige with different tints of green on it and in the shapes of flowers and vines doubtlessly make for a celebration. The designer believes that these flowers and motif can bring you closer to the Mother Nature. |
The flats that are included in the ‘green’ line are made in beige and feature thin straps for good support. The shoe is embellished with a combination of leaves on the top. There is an adjustable strap with a tiny metallic buckle. The flats are a perfect variant for active summer. These shoes enable you to get the combination of cutting edge new designs with the traditional methods that are used to put these shoes together. Now we know that ‘green’ items can be trendy too. |
