Chloe Ankle Cuff Sandal

Filed under: Shoes

The variety of sandals available for the season is endless. You can go with a more traditional style or be daring and wear a pair like the Chloe Ankle Cuff Sandal ($595) , which is a nice mix of traditional and trendy. Traditional because of the color - this will match anything you have in your closet - but also trendy given its silhouette and canvas ankle cuff. It features an adjustable buckle strap so you can wear the cuff up or down. Pair with virtually any casual outfit for a relaxed yet stylish summer look.

If you're looking to add a pair of flirty sandals to your collection, L.A.M.B's Veena Sandals ($325) would make a great addition. The slouchy t-strap sandals have three little pink and beige flowers at the vamp and an elasticized strap making for a snug and individual fit. Given its understated color, the Veena Sandals could compliment a wide range of outfits. If you are of the vertically challenged group and desire some height, myself included, you'll appreciate the five inch heel with a one inch platform. Also available in grey.

Alexander Wang Velvet Sandals

Alexander Wang takes the combination of American Sports with high fashion to an all new level with his Open-Toed Sandals ($499). Initially shown at his Spring 2010 fashion show, his leather and velvet open toed sandals are accented with black shoe laces that are wrapped around the top of the shoe and gathers together in knot on the side. I can't say that I've ever seen shoelaces manipulated in this way, but hats off to Alexander Wang for being creative and trying something different. Luckily, the laces just barely touch the ground so you won't trip. View his looks below to see them paired with toeless knee socks for an unexpected and playful look.

Giuseppe Zanotti Studded Sandals

Canvas gets a sexy upgrade in Giuseppe Zanotti's High Heeled Sandals ($512). Usually a material associated with sneakers and tote bags, it's refreshing to see canvas used in this way. The color choice is great since olive is a muted color tone that is complimentary to a number of outfits regardless of the color scheme.

While canvas lends itself to be casual, it's the addition of silver studs and 4 inch heels that are harmoniously brought together to create a pair of chic heeled sandals making them ideal for casual outfits when you still want height but you don't want to appear overdressed. They have a cross over foot strap and a zipper back so you don't have to try and squeeze your foot in when your putting them on.

Christian Louboutin Discolilou Sandals

Filed under: Shoes

Prepare your feet with a relaxing and uplifting pedicure because Louboutin's Discolilou's Sandals are calling your name. The undeniable king of women's most sexy and celebrated heels has done it again. My mouth dropped open when I initially saw his Dillian Heels - a shoe that we previously features and one that I would love to own. And since the Dillian has come out, there has been an over abundance of heels that were "inspired by" it's captivating leather ruffling style. Well this time, Loubotin has captured my heart again with his Discolilou sandals ($895). These heels takes the bare minimum approach by using knotted skinny straps of leather and a gold toned o-ring as it's a single embellishment. While it is a simply designed shoe - lacking Swarovski crystals, exotic leather and all the other bells and whistles that many shoes posses - don't disregard the Discolilou so quickly. The "come hither" high heeled sandals are ultra sexy and its versatility is long lasting, making it a worthy yet pricey investment. They would look fabulous with virtually anything that you wear, but they would be perfect with a sleeveless summer print dress that hits just below the knees.

Jimmy Choo Zap Sandals with 'Light Up Detail'

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Shoes

At first glance this strappy Jimmy Choo doesn't look all that special, but underneath all that shiny black leather and trendy color block accents is something you'd never guess: a tiny electric switch and lights. Yes, lights.

Now it's a shoe fit for a superhero.

The Zap Sandal will be available sometime this spring (although you can pre-order them now) and is made of patent leather and suede with a chunky platform, 5.1" heel, and 'light up detail' that is sure to make every step unforgettable.

I just love it, although I really want to know exactly where it lights up -- if anyone finds out let me know in the comments. $2,495

Valentino Feather Trimmed Satin Sandals

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Shoes

I love it when shoes get a little crazy and this Valentino pair of Feather Trimmed Satin Sandals is a perfect example. The sandals themselves are nothing to write home about, being simple 4 1/2" heels in strappy khaki satin with black satin trim. But then comes the fun part: the asymmetrical black rooster feather trim that soars several inches for a floaty, fantasy effect that will surely make you the fashion maven of any party. Sadly I imagine it will be hard to wear this pair more than once or twice, as the feathers will surely take a beating even just walking around. $895

Stuart Weitzman's luxury diamond and gemstone embellished shoes always attract attention, usually on the feet of a starlet at a red-carpet event. But Weitzman's "Million Dollar" platinum shoe has received a unique honor, a country postage stamp issued by the Spanish government. The shoe features 464 Kwiat diamonds with a total carat weight of 61.92 mounted on a platinum mesh frame. The creation of the shoe was a collaboration between Platinum Guild International, Kwiat Diamonds and Stuart Weitzman. The stamp bears Stuart Weitzman's name and a picture of the show. Weitzman was celebrated at an event held at the National Shoe Museum in Elda, Spain, marking the 50th anniversary of the internationalization of the Spanish shoe industry. Weitzman's factories have been located in Alicante, Spain's shoemaking headquarters for the past 37 years.

Sandals Picks Up A Four Seasons Resort

by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels

The recently-closed Four Seasons Resort Great Exuma at Emerald Bay in the Bahamas will have a new life as a Sandals Resort. The property will be the 14th Sandals Resort in the Caribbean and the third in the Bahamas. The 500-acre property has a Greg Norman golf course and a marina. The resort closed in May after being in receivership and will re-open next January. It will be given some Sandals-style amenities including a new pool complex with a swim-up bar and additional restaurants. The resort occupies an enviable swath of white sand on Emerald Bay and has 190 rooms. The marina has 133 slips and can accommodate yachts up to 300 feet in length. It seems like a good deal for Sandals, they've acquired a great resort at what was probably a very good price.

Filed under: Shoes

Wow. I'm not sure where to start. Sort of a glamour meets goth look going on here, and although the cutout sides, peep toes, and jagged edges complete with silver and black Swarovski crystal embellishments is sure to be eye catching the bright purple interior that adds so much in this photo is unfortunately for your eyes only, as it doesn't show when the shoe is being worn. An interesting and truly "fierce" addition to your stiletto collection, this Swarovski Sandal by Giuseppe Zanotti goes for $1,150.

Lizzie Lou's Crystal Flip Flops

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Shoes

Summer is in full swing and although in some stores fall shoes are already starting to make an appearance in my opinion it's never too late to buy a great new pair of sandals. I tend to wear flip flops anywhere and everywhere that they're even remotely socially acceptable, which means I have a closet full of them and am always on the lookout for new cute designs. These handmade versions by Lizzie Lou Shoes are on the upscale side of the flip flop family tree, featuring comfy EVA soles, real leather straps, and lots of pretty Swarovski crystal and semi-precious stone embellishments. Prices range from $107-$123/pair.

And if you missed them before, we covered these other Swarovski flip flops earlier this month.
