Spring 2010 Best of: Pumps

Earlier, I decided I would share with you, lovely readers, my top picks for the Spring 2010 shoes. I had to put this on hold because of the holidays but now its time to finish it up! I have shown you my favorite boots and flats for the season and today is pumps.

The range of different styles this season is crazy. There were girly pinks and patent leather next to studs and snakeskin. Yet each shoe was so unique and beautiful.

Stuart Weitzman- Python Printed Studs Open Toe Pumps
I love the mix of different textures on this shoe. The snakeskin with the studs should have been too much but somehow looks just right. I'm right on board for the whole platform trend this season. I'm super short, so the more height the better. This heel looks manageable while still avoiding chunky.

Lanvin-Patent and Suede Pumps

The structure of this shoe was what drew me in. I love the swooping motion of the sides and the color is so vibrant and exotic. For some reason I picture wearing these on some seaside vacation.

Giuseppe Zanotti-Patent Leather with Rubber Platform Pump
I love the simplicity that these shoes offer. The color is classic while the shape is modern and updated. I love the idea of the rubber platform and I think these are the perfect replacement for your basic nude pumps.

Fendi-Lycra and Plexi Peep Toe Pumps

These were my favorite from the bunch. Like I mentioned before I am a huge fan of the platform trend and I have always loved clear details. I'm also in love with the clever placement of the Fendi logo on the back of the plexi platform. I think its an unusual shoe but very forward and when worn right could be very beautiful.

Spring 2010 Best of :Flats

Earlier this week I came across one of the first few sites that have Spring 2010 shoes up for sale. I of course went through and determined my favorite for every category. As I mentioned in this post I decided to share a few of my favorites with you.

Today I am going to share some of my favorite flats with you guys. I've never been much of a flats girl. Maybe its because I was forced to wear the same boring black pair with my school uniform from age 12 to 18. Either way I tend not to incorporate them into my outfits. That might be why my selections for this category are so few.

Giuseppe Zanotti- Toe Ring Camouflaged Print Flats

I love how simple these shoes hare. They are understated yet very elegant and would look good with almost anything during any summer season. They would never go out of style.

Melissa- Open Toe Ballerina Flats

I love the earthy feel of these shoes. The weave of the shoe makes me think of twigs and leaves. I think they would match with almost anything because of the neutral colors.

Salvatore Ferragamo- Acqua Glitter Spiffy Flats

These shoes were my favorite of the bunch. I loved how it brought me back to when I was kid. Jelliez were cool then. And apparently they are coming back in style. I love the glitter and the shape of these shoes. If there is one thing I probably get from all of the shoes I talk about it is most likely these.

Boots

Spring 2010 Best of: Boots

As I mentioned here, this week I am sharing my favorite shoes available from the Spring 2010 collections. Today's category is boots. There were several different styles this season for boots. However many of the designers seemed to go in the direction of edgy combat boot style. While I am a fan of that look, I was more inspired by a few of the different pieces.

Giuseppe Zanotti- Washed Denim Ankle Boots

I love this boot. Its refreshing amoungst all the black and can be paired with almost anything. I really love the silver stripe along the top as well. It adds flare.

Alexander Wang- Freja Laced Zip Boots

Even amoung the see of black combat boot look-a-likes this boot stands out. I love the way it appears to be a boot within a boot. Its edgy without being over the top.

DSQUARED- Patent Folded Booty Boots

I love how different these shoes are. The orange color makes them stand out and the shape it to die for. I also love the rock and roll touch the black rugged soles lend to the shoe.

Stuart Weitzman- Peep Toe Low Booties

These are right on trend. I think that the spring clothes are starting to soften up a bit but florals with leather and zippers will always be a good combination. I can see these shoes paired with a knee length floral skirt.

So,Santa, if your listening these are at the top of my list. ;-)

Best of Spring 2010

Obsessed With Shoes recent blog post brought to my attention that Luisavairoma is one of the first sites to have 2010 shoes up. Needless to say I spent hours upon hours inspecting each and every shoe with the lovely 360 animations they provide. Over the course of the next few days I'm going to share my picks of each category : boots, flats, pumps, sandals and wedges.
