| When I take a look at these unusual ankle boots that are known as Antonia, some dual feelings awake in my soul. The first thought that comes to my mind is resemblance to Egyptian mummies that are completely covered with strange old bandages. But at the same time, these booties cannot be compared with gloomy and scaring mummies of Egyptian Pharaohs. They are rather attractive and nice than odd and repulsive. Another association that comes to my mind is a birds’ nest. The reason is multiple straps look much like tree branches of a black tree. |
 |
| Actually a lot can be said about these extravagant, modern looking and stylish ankle boots but let’s pass on to some details that might be of interest for you. The distinctive feature of the shoes is numerous straps that cover the entire surface of the boots interlacing chaotically. By the way, the straps are made of leather which makes the booties very practical and durable. At the heel part there are oval openings that make the shoes good for warm seasons. The toe part is opened too for additional ventilation. At the side part you can see metallic zippers that feature the logo of DKNY. |
 |
| I would also like to pay your attention to the heel of the booties that is super practical and steady as it is wide enough and of average height. At the same time, it does not look too everyday and orthopedic, and does not ruin the whole image of these wonderful and stylish ankle boots. |
 |
| Antonia is the best name for the booties as it means something exotic yet modern. And the last important point of the matter is the price of the ankle boots. Antonia masterpiece is available for $ 130. That is an excellent offer, is not it? |

| Though fall is not so soon and summer is in its full swing designers are thinking now about their new collections for a season to come. Most of them have already presented their novelties, so I suggest that we review the most popular and interesting of them. |
 Raf Simons, the master of restraint, keeps on developing his concept of simple and effective design. He presented black leather, flat-heeled boots with rounded toes. These boots can be paired with pipes. If simplicity and urban comfort is for you, so that might be the right shoe for you. |
 |
| And one more time we return to the latest trend for fall 2010 – boudoir shoes that represent femininity and exquisite beauty. John Galliano at Christian Dior must have been thinking of femininity with this modern mixture of materials, when he invented these lace booties. Sexy and revealing, they confirm how beautiful a foot can look. |
 |
| I cannot but mentioning Nikolas Kirkwood who designed Fall 2010 shoe collection for Rodarte. I was amazed by sandals with bands of fabric tied around the ankle, oxford style laces and heels formed to look like melting wax. The heel glows in the dark, that is why the shoe is ideal for a party. |
 |
| Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli who work for Valentino fashion brand let the shoes do the talking. Cream, nude pink kitten heels and candy cane red flats were trimmed with studs. The idea is quite aggressive and will be supported only by younger Valentino fans. |
 |
| The shoes from Balenciaga, brogues and loafers encased in plastic, are the most extravagant, urban looking invention and the ultimate modern interpretation of a classic. The variety of materials is impressive - saran wrap, wood, styrofoam, foam. Anyway, the shoes from Balenciaga seem to be made by engineers and not by fashion designers. |

| 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. |

| Looking through the collections presented for the season the come we notice some distinctive features that are likely to turn into a true fashion trend for fall 2010. In general, Fall 2010 footwear collections from renowned fashion designers are very different and have some interesting and unique traits. At the same time some traits can be seen in collections of several famous designers, which makes them a new trend. |
 |
| 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. |
