Recently in L.A.M.B. Category

I’m constantly impressed by the shoes L.A.M.B. comes out with. They’re always unique, but totally wearable. I love this pump. The shape is great, and the double straps make them much more interesting and hip than a regular pump. You can wear these pumps with anything, but I’d probably wear them with jeans the most.

I’ve featured several L.A.M.B. shoes lately, but I just can’t resist! They are all so hot and unique! At first glance, these slingbacks appear to just be a lovely pair of evening shoes. But there’s a twist of course!

When you look at the shoe from the front, you realize the rosette is actually off-set, and I absolutely love that it’s constructed from a zipper! Because these sandals are satin they would look great with a black sheath dress, but I also think they are versatile enough to wear casually with jeans. They are available in black and gray as well, but the red is my favorite.

Simple, cute, and classically funky.  You could do so much with a bootie like this. I like the platform under the ball of the foot, and the rounded upper adds some playfulness. And don't we all need some added playfulness? I would pair these with--yes, you guessed it--skinny jeans and a tee or dress 'em up with ... none other than a dress (not a gown, something cocktail)!

I love these shoes! Like really love these shoes! Actually, I really love most everything that L.A.M.B. comes out with! They are always sexy, and a tad edgy. I love the stripes, and the shade of purple is gorgeous! The heel is very high (and undeniably sexy) at 4 ¾ inches, but it is offset by a platform.

There are a million ways to wear these platforms, but I’d definitely wear them with a short black dress and black tights! Perfect for a night out dancing! Another thing I love about L.A.M.B. are the reasonable prices--at least compared to most of the shoes we review!

 Hmmm... not sure what to make of these. It looks like perhaps someone was smoking too much Chiba when they came up with this shoe. I usually really dig Gwen Stefani's designs, but these might be a little cheesy. Also, that color combo makes me think of Chanel and although that may be a selling point for some, I'd rather have the real thing.

The Desirable: Balenciaga Facet Strap Sandals

Recently Balenciaga has launched his website and ecommerce, and besides fabulous handbags, we can also purchase shoes! Although these sandals are not something that I will purchase, I think the blue enamel detail and the gold heel adds a special touch!

Repulsive: Tod's Carl Boots

I can tell you the following story just by looking at these boots. It was hot and dry outside, so the raccoon thought "ohhhh...maybe I can enter through this little opening and be able to spend a cool summer and eat and rest." Truth is, the raccoon ended up in Grandma's closet, and unfortunately these boots are the living proof that a raccoon should never feud with Grandma unless he wants to end up as a trophy on Grandma's shoes after she won the battle!

I really like Gwen Stefani as an artist, and her shoes are always super sexy! And these shoes are off the charts! I love the cuff and pyramid clasp, and the thick platform offsets the high heel. I would definitely wear these shoes for going out at night, whether with jeans or dresses. I would caution you to choose your clothes carefully, though, because the ensemble, including shoes, can easily start to look kind of cheap and trashy! There’s a fine line between hot and skanky! For example, if you pick a shorter skirt length, pair it with a less revealing top, or if your arms and back are your best  feature, don't wear a super-short mini skirt!

And, as I’ve mentioned before, these shoes are going to look better if you have long, slender legs. If you’re shorter, a platform style without an ankle strap or cuff, would be more flattering.

At first I was not crazy about the L.A.M.B but I have to say that recently I have been quite impress from their spring collection.

I love these shoes, they are classy and yet trendy and will be perfect with a pencil skirt as well as with skinny jeans.

The button closure adds a couture touch to these fabulous shoes.

The Lanvin Gladiator has been my pick of the week. I loved the snake skin version, but they also look amazing in the patent leather version. The downside, however, is their high price tag of $995.00.

 But for those of you who aren't ready to drop so much money, here is a fabulous, very similar-looking pair of shoes.

 They are also in a deep navy blue crinkled patent leather with metallic hardware, but their price is much lower at $325.00.

 Whatever the choice, both shoes are hot and trendy and will make a statement anywhere you wear them!

 I love how  Gwen Stefani's personality seems to find its way into each of her designs, whether it be her clothes or shoes. These Gianira pumps are no exception.  I would rock these for sure, with black skinny jeans.  It definitely takes some cojones to pull them off, but baby, I've got 'em ;-)
