Those killer heels are by far some of the most colourful and extraordinary shoes for F/W 2010. The breathtaking models are true works of art and should definitely remain the centre of attention. So keep the rest of your outfit subtle and make sure you know how to walk in them. And if you think there are too much, then just enjoy looking at them.
One thing is certain: This footwear provokes and can cause justifiable credit card debt.
As to me, so worth it…

The focus is on legs for summer, tons of mini skirts and hot pants paraded down the runways. According to the remarkable decrease in the length of the hemlines, the lower part of the body seemed to become the main attraction for decoration. Tights, along with other types of legwear like leggings, legwarmers or socks, made a sizzling fashion statement.
As nylons had always been a no-go in sandals, the trend of the open toe booties posed a real dilemma to me this winter especially that I hate cold feet. I am always admiring the French journalists during the fashion weeks showing-up effortlessly bare-legged whatever the weather. So honestly, I am curious if French ladies are going to adapt to the new trend. They have that nonchalant way of looking elegantly stylish that I truly so adore.
Fact is that there were also many Parisian designers like John Galliano for Christian Dior or Jean-Paul Gaultier who sent their models in sandals combined with sweet little socks down the runway.
The photos give you a taste of what is to come. Do not be shocked by those, they might show the look in an extreme way. Get inspired by those tendencies and interpret them in your very own way. Remove taboos and stimulate your spirits!
Plus if you do not have those perfectly tanned marvellous legs, tights will be the perfect alternative to go mini. I am totally in love with those laced-up ones below from the Chanel S/S 2010 show. Wolford has a similiar version for sale on their website at the moment. Enjoy this young look!

Today I have a stunning outfit for a reasonable price looking like a million bucks. Do you dream sometimes of being a Femme Fatale? This is what you need: A stunning LBD (Little Black Dress), a statement coat (meaning not too basic with some details but still classy), high heels and a great bag. The last one might be the most expensive piece of your outfit. Why? Because you should definetely invest in your bag as you can carry it every day and it will show your style immediately.
The LBD in my set is from Emily & Fin and only costs £65.-. The asymmetric shoulder line gives it the perfect and trendy shape but will still be never out of fashion. Likewise is this gorgeous light coat with the scarf detail by Great Plains for £120.-. Both pieces are available at www.coggles.com.
But the real glamour comes from that breathtaking headpiece less than €10.- at H&M that I adore like these beautiful shoes by Chloé. They would be a great choice to buy with a discount so please wait for the sale that should begin soon.
And last but not least let`s have a look at the bag: This one by Marni is quite expensive but absolutely worth the price due to its versatility. You can wear it during the day using the gold-tone metallic chain and ribbon strap or as an evening clutch. The flower embellishment makes it a super feminine accessory.
Put some red lipstick on and enjoy discovering your very own Femme Fatale!!!!

There is no doubt about the power of High Heels. You are taller and your legs appear longer. Once you put them on, you move differently with a certain attitude and feel very feminine. There is no way men can resist that. This spring you have a versatile choice in great heights. One of my favourites are the stunning Alexander McQueen peep toes. The heart-shaped opening is so sexy. You can already buy all these models here.
You will have to wait a little longer for these amazing High Heels from the runway collections. But it is worth it. I am completely obsessed with the playful and romantic versions by Victor and Rolf and by Miu Miu. These chunky Chanel platform pumps are a wonderful choice, too as they will make your legs look super-slim.
