Shoe Boxers

I love checking out the red carpet arrivals. In particular the shoes on the soles of the divas at those red carpet arrivals. Most recently I had the opportunity to check out Avril Levigne at her recent CD release party. Now, she was made up to the nines. But those Doc Martins do not go with that tuille skirt that she is sporting. I love Doc Martins. I dressed my daughters in them for years. But come on Avril, grow up.

What’s the theme of this get up? Lumberjack meets Tinkerbell?

I suppose when you are a billionaire teen and your favorite shoe designer is Christian Louboutin, that can get you a date with the king of Red Carpet Heels. Ashley and Christian Louboutin were together at the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute Benefit Gala. I’m sure Ashely was wearing Christian Louboutin shoes, but you just can’t see them under that floor sweeping gown she has on. She does look elegant, I must say.

There were plenty of other stars there as well — Lindsay Lohan, Kate Moss, Salma Hayek. Supermodels were abundant, so no doubt there were thousands of dollars of Christian Louboutin shoes sprinkled among the crowd.
Reports Frillr:
While Lindsay Lohan’s lawyers are demanding that England’s News of the World newspaper produce a videotape they claim shows her snorting cocaine, the freckled beauty squeezed into a revealing Goth dress for a night on the town.

So you thought you were really working it in those 4 inch stilettos? Forget it sister. Yves Saint Laurent has introduced a towering 5 1/2 inch stiletto platform that has all the A list Hollywood divas lining up.
Reports RAAKHEE MIRCHANDANI of Page Six:

The must-have shoe for spring is the “Tribute” from Yves Saint Laurent, adorned with a towering 5 1/2-inch heel. Sold out in most New York retailers, it’s one of the tallest high-fashion shoes ever produced - yet celebrities such as Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez and Gwen Stefani can’t wait to walk at elevations usually reserved for Las Vegas dancers and Vivid Video actresses.

The $640-$660 Mary Jane style comes in four colors: violet, red, black suede and black leather. The slingback version comes in violet, black leather and green suede. Adding to the walking challenge - and the reason the heel can go so high - is the 11/2-inch platform on the front of the shoe.

BuLuckily, the “Tribute” also comes in a more manageable 3 1/2 -inch version. If you’re a wimp.

Check out Christina Aguilera working the super sexy, super high heel YSL Mary Jane.

Shoe collectors and shoe fetishes alike will be clamoring for this hot shoe. It’s sure to be a classic.

Sweets for your feet? That’s exactly what Vanessa and Angela Simmons, daughters of Rev Run of Run DMC fame have cooked up. Most recently featured on Run’s House the two young entrepreneurs have already reached reality TV fame. Now they have launched a new sneaker line — Pastry. It’s no wonder these two young women have produced a line of fashion footwear — they are the neices of urban fashion moguls Russel Simmons and Kimora Lee Simmons, founders of Phat Farm and Baby Phat. Kimora more recently launched her perfume and makeup line at Sephora.

The line features colorful, mid-priced athletic-inspired shoes in multiple styles for young women.
Every pair of shoes comes with a tube of scented lipgloss attached to it matching the shoe’s theme. Maybe that sweet touch is due to Aunti Kimora’s influence.

According to Elizabeth Wellington, Inquirer Fashion Writer:

Pastry is available locally at Sneaker Villa, where they retail for $65. Cake is the shoe line’s first collection, comprising four sneakers: Strawberry Shortcake, Chocolate Mousse, Sprinkles, and Red Velvet, each designed to look like the sweet it represents. Strawberry Shortcake is pink and white, for example; red velvet has a red lining, and the outside is striped in pink and ecru.

Angela, a 19-year-old sophomore at New York’s Fashion Institute of Technology, came up with the Sprinkles sneaker. “I bake a Pillsbury cake called Confetti,” she said. “Inside the cake are sprinkles that burst inside after you bake it. That’s where I came up with that concept.”

Ok, girls, go get some Pastry for your feet!

Now, I don’t really think of Pam Anderson as a designer shoe girl. But she is. I spotted her with a pair of Gucci platform pumps that I could die for. And now here Pam is at a PETA event wearaing a gorgeous beige suede Christian Louboutin peep toe pump. Pamela Anderson was introducing PETA Chief Dan Mathews at L.A. Times Festival of Books but the shoes got my attention. I know that it’s typical for stars, models etc, to put tape on the bottom of their shoes, but Pam, take the tape off when you are showing that gorgeous Christian Louboutin red leather sole!

Now if we could just get her to work on that wardrobe.

So I’m a little late on the bandwagon with this story, but I decided to add my two cents anyway. Victoria Beckham, aka Posh Spice, wife of hottie soccer superstar David Beckham had the ultimate materialistic birthday from her hubby. While most women are satisfied if their husbands even remember their birthday within the proper week, let alone think of getting a card and/or present, that Posh Victoria Beckham was first whisked away from the US to Paris via private jet. Then she was treated to a private shopping spree at Christian Louboutin in Paris. Yes, the boutique close down for the Beckhams. Reportedly, Miss Vick picked out a pair of $1500 Christian Louboutin Shoes.

And the shopping didn’t end there. They proceeded on to Azzedine Alaia where she spent thousands. Of course there was more shopping and an evening that culinated at the Ritz Carlton.

And us ordinary girls save our pennies for the half yearly sale at Nordies…

It looks like Mary Janes are having a major fashion comeback. Not that they ever really left. I recently wrote about how the mary jane has grown up, and it seems that the Hollywood girls are working them like mad. Paris Hilton loves them, as does Jenna Jameson, Carmen Electra and Ciara.

Drew Barrymore is the latest celebrity to become a easy, breezy face of CoverGirl. She is the girl that we just love becaue in the world of hollywood divas, she is such a non-diva. For the press event introducing the event, Drew wore non other than the king of the red carpet shoes, Christian Louboutin. Who would have thought that green shoes with a red sole would look so stunning with a yellow Carolina Herrera sheath. Drew pulls it off fabulously!

I would love to wear $1,500 Christian Louboutin boots to work to mop and wash windows. That’s exactly what Naomi Campbell strutted on her way to report for her cleaning duty — punishment for throwing a crytsal studded Blackberry at her assistant.

As reported by the New York Post:

Reformed supermodel NAOMI CAMPBELL’s community service wardrobe has lead to a huge demand for Christian Louboutin boots.

The English beauty, 36, wore a string of expensive, designer labels as she arrived every day for her week-long stint at New York City’s Sanitation Department last month (MAR07). Once inside, she changed into department regulation workwear.
Campbell was ordered to clean the department as punishment for attacking her maid ANA SCOLAVINO in March 2006.
One of the mornings she arrived for work, Campbell wowed the paparazzi in a pair of spike-heeled Louboutin boots, of which only a few existed.
Campbell explains, “One my first day I wore a Ralph Lauren coat, a cashmere shawl and Christina Louboutin boots. Christian got 12 hundred orders from that day.
“He wasn’t going to make those boots - now he is.”

Okay, I guess I’m on a celebrity-Christian Louboutin-wearing-hate binge. Yesterday it’s Halle wearing my favorite Louboutin’s. Today it’s Nicky Hilton. I rhink I need a new job. One that blesses me with an infinite array of gorgeous designer shoes.

So what if Nicky can spend $720 on a new pair of Cbristian Louboutin shoes. I will just get these knock offs for $39.99.

Umm, don’t think so. Can’t do it. I’ll just save up for the real thing.

Halle just got her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and I’m really proud of her. But why did she have to wear my favorite pair of Christian Louboutin shoes for which I’m saving. And saving. And saving. Darn her. Isn’t it enough to be beautiful, rich, an oscar winning actress, having a model turned restauranteur boyfriend? Nooo, she has to be seen in public with the shoes that I WANT!
Not only that, but she looks so good in them.

Here we see not only a bird’s eye view of Halle’s tush, but that give away red leather Louboutin sole.
And another view of these gorgeous shoes.

Every diva in Hollywood knows that Christian Louboutin is the man. He was noted as an influencer in the most recent Allure. His shoes are gorgeous, there is no denying that. And gorgeous Thandie Newton does leopard print Christian Louboutin’s justice at a recent outing.

Halle Berry is just too hot for herself. She’s not getting older, she’s getting better. At 40. she has defined her style sense and always comes out looking a winner. I posted awhile back that she recycles her shoes. Meaning that she wears her slamming shoes to more than one red carpet event. Shows signs of a reasonable woman to me. Good fashion sense!

Last week Halle co-hosted Host Much On Demand in Toronto, and showed just how to wear jeans tucked into boots. I see this done so badly most of the time, that it was way cool to see the look rocked correctly, the way Halle did.

Notice the fashionable pointed to boot. Notice that the jeans were neatly tucked in, not bulging out. Notice that her jeans FIT! This is how to wear jeans in boots.

And looking at the soles of her boots, I think she recycles these too. Pretty worn…Nice to see that a celebrity gets miles out of her shoes.
