So 60's, so floral, so mine! Love the yellow leather (say that ten times fast) and as always, the wedge. Again, you can see here the signature of Bottega Veneta (the woven leather.) I would pair these with high waisted shorts and a tee or a dress.

These are 'oh so' Bottega. The braided heel? Genius! I love when a designer has a distinct signature. The upper is beautiful and the color scheme executed perfectly. I would pair these with a dress, a pencil skirt, maybe a cute romper.

From Milan: Beautiful Bottega wedges... I know its not even Winter yet, but I'm already excited for Spring!! And with shoes like this, it's no wonder... I would pair these with a flirty floral dress or any Spring dress for that matter.

Im not fond of these... too much going on in my opinion (I know what you're thinking: "this is the same girl who wanted those crazy Betsey Johnson boots yesterday!!" But to me, those were a practical kind of crazy; these are just all over the place.) Too many metallic colors and even without the color scheme, the shape of the shoe is borinnnnggg.
(HOWEVER, check out all the other shoes on the site this season. So many cute ones!)

I’m actually somewhat ambivalent about these Bottega Venetta sandals. I do like the combination of suede and sandals, and we do know that suede is hot for fall. They do come in purple (although we're showing black below), which is another fall must-have, but I just can’t get excited about these sandals. I think it’s the flowers that look somewhat cheap on my screen. Maybe they look better in person. I think I would've preferred the shoe in general, sans flowers, cheap looking or not. Let me know if you ladies own these or have seen them in person and love ‘em or hate ‘em! Overall, I’ve been disappointed with Bottega Venetta’s latest offerings.
I have to admit that the Bottega Veneta fall shoe collection is a tiny bit disappointing. There is not one pair of shoes in the collection that I would buy--which is extremely unusual--and not a good sign.
However, these eclipse wedges are interesting. They kind of remind me of my grandmother's rubber sole loafers, but at the same time, they have a very Vivienne Westwood feel to them that I like.
I think they will look good with pencil skirts and a belted jacket or with pleated skirts.
Bottega Veneta Eclipse Oxford Wedge $770 Bottega Veneta
Tyler and I have a thing for purple and I must say these fit the bill. The suede looks soft and rich and the heel+platform add a modern twist to a pretty classic shape. I would do these boots with a skirt or dress to pump up the volume or skinny jeans to stay low key.
(PS I love Bottega's website. very easy to navigate and esthetically pleasing, Bravo.)
Bottega Veneta Turbolence Boots $1200 Bottega
These are "Oxford with a twist." I definitely see the British influence in this Italian design. They are great for fall, and I love the rich color pallet. I would pair these with a chic black suit or high-waisted black skirt and white blouse.

What do you think about these boots? I like them a lot. They are simple, but elegant. I love the retro feel of the heel and the cutout detail adds some sophistication to these really beautiful boots.
I will wear them with almost everything from dresses to pants. They will also look amazing with skinny jeans.

As I was shopping with one of my tall girlfriends, she fell in love with the magnificent Bottega Veneta intrecciato satin sandal, but there is only one problem! She is extremely tall and will be taller than her husband, if she wears that kind of shoe.
But here is the solution. Bottega Veneta has made a lower heel version--1 inch vs. 5 inches of these fabulous shoes. They are in leather instead of satin, but are super cute as well.
