I thought these were real shoes when I first saw them! But no, they are paper shoes.
Here's the photo note with the website to learn to make them---
Finally, here is a tutorial of a simple paper and ribbon high heel ornament. It was meant to be uploaded for Xmas but I hope some of you still can enjoy.
For the tutorial video, please go to www.carlosNmolina.com, select "tutorials/videos" and then the shoe button.
Thanks,
Carlos N.

Faux Ugg Boots at Target $24.99 (photo)
For those of you who love Uggs this time of year, but can't afford the price, Target has a pretty comfy knock-off Ugg Boot in stock right now. They come in tan /light brown or light gray.
They also have little kids sizes (as much as I love my daughter, I'm not buying an 8 year old a pair of uggs), so these make a great alternative. And they are super soft and fuzzy on the inside. They are currently in stock in Target (Sept, Oct, Nov, maybe December? 2009).

Sex and the City 2: The accessories of Carrie Bradshaw
from this article The shoes, the Gino Round Toe T-Strap, feature a black patent toe, yellow and gold side straps, and a yellow T-strap and ankle buckle. Of course, the signature red sole can be seen on the heel. Although similar color combinations of the Gino have been available in the past, the ones shown on Carrie are possibly a look at what's to come from Louboutin.

Christian Louboutin purple twill 'Brigitte' ankle-tie espadrilles
Christian Louboutin purple twill 'Brigitte' ankle-tie espadrilles
I was absolutely shocked to learn that Christian Louboutin sold espadrilles this year. As a teen, these were our $2 shoes we'd buy in many colors because when they got wet, they had to be thrown out as they smelled so bad. But they were so cheap and so easy and so cute.
I'm just not what I think about Louboutin creating some. I mean, it's obviously his right to do it, but 1) do they have the red heel? And 2) if you buy them, it is because you must always have the best and have everything designer? I guess that's my question. I think the cheapo version of these would be adequate, but maybe I'm wrong.

Love these preppy orange (though they look pink to me) Prada penny loafers. Or maybe, they're dime loafers.
Too cute and a nice way to jazz up a basic fall outfit.

Ugly Pucci Boots
I had to post these, the woman trying them on also thought they were not flattering, so I have no problem posting them here.
here's her photo note:
ana trying one of the shoes up for the world's most ugliest shoe award...they looked like clown boots...and it was like a giant stretchy sock over the entire shoe...

They reminded me of something Goldie Hawn would wear on Laugh-in. Of course, I'm sure the right person could make them work... could they?! ;-)

The Best Shoes Ever. by Prada (photo)
Photo note:
Let me tell you. I saw these shoes when they first came out. I was out shopping with my mom for my birthday (a yearly tradition) and we happened upon these in Nordstrom. They were marked at $1053 or something like that.
I clutched them to my chest and talked about how lovely the were--champagne satin, jet beading on all sides, cute little strap, stiletto heel--and then put them back because, really, who in hell is going to pay that? (a person with a lot more money than i have, yes.) but
THEN. two years later i was in a nordstrom clearance store outside of philly looking for shoes to wear with my dress for my sister's wedding. i saw these. i looked at them. there was one pair only, in my size. i couldn't figure out how much they were marked down. i walked to customer service and asked how much they were. the woman told me they were $110. I jumped up and down and up and down and walked straight to the cash register and BOUGHT THE SH*T OUT THESE. no looking back.

Love these off-gold flats with the amber red gem detail and kind of fringe look. Gorgeous. Woud be great for the bride who wants to do with something less traditional and perhaps a fall wedding.

Kate Spade Fluer Print Mules w/ a kitten heel
I love these shoes... but I also love the photographer's note just as much!
Photo note:
These are the Kate Spade Fleur mule heels that I first fell in love with about five years ago. In May 2001, I spent hours searching for these to wear at my wedding. My wedding dress was off-white and not too fancy so I wanted to liven things up with a cute and fun shoe underneath all that taffeta. Unfortunately, back then these shoes were (1) impossible to find and (2) $300 if you could find them at all. And I refused to pay $300 for a pair of shoes.
So I bought a nice ivory mule at Lord and Taylor and made do. But I never forgot about the Kate Spade shoes. And now they are mine. And I have no where to wear them.
I found these on eBay in May 2005 and was the high bidder at $32.99. Yes, that's right bitches....$33 bucks.
Too bad they did not fit. Size 9 in Kate Spade mules seem to run small.
So I sold them on eBay. For almost $100.
