Daily Desire: London Tartan Ankle BootOne trend we're watching on the runways is a definite emergence of the use of British patterns and fabrics, and really one can never have too many shoes. So if you're looking for something safe to start the plunge look no further then these. I've never been a massive fan of chucks or their derivative forms but really I wouldn't mind adding something like these to my rotation. 
Christmas Desires: Peter Alexander slippersIf you want to give someone a gift for around the house that's cosy, comfortable but still stylish, Peter Alexander are usually the place to go. For something a little different, they've come out with red sequinned 'Dorothy' slippers - boxed up to make a nice gift. You can tell the person you buy them for to throw away their grandma slippers... cos Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore!
Available at Peter Alexander. Manolo for MenThere's no argument from me that Manolo Blahnik is absolutely the best known shoe maker in the world thanks to the girls from Sex and the City, and his heels for the girls are absolutely amazing. So it should be no surprise with the rise in men's fashion that Manolo would soon be making shoes for the boys. According to UK Vogue the collection is quite small with only six pieces that include a somewhat out-there leopard print sandal.
Christmas Desires: Studded PlatformsUs girls aren't hard to buy for... If you know our shoe size! There are so many great pairs of designer shoes out there that the choices are a-plenty, but one show-stopper of the moment are these Burberry studded platforms. If you want to give a daring gift for Christmas these are the trick; so hot right now for the girl who can rock a rock-chic shoe with a mean heel.
Though we feel sort of wrong saying it, there are also quite a few other 'versions' of the shoe - like the Topshop ones pictured above right. We prefer the read deal but if you care to sacrifice quality for a more affordable option, then the choice is yours for as long as Topshop stay out of legal trouble. Kate Beckinsale wears Louboutin Mary-JanesWe've spotted a trend for high-heeled mary-janes, with the likes of Mischa Barton, Kate Bosworth, and Diane Kruger wearing them. Kate Beckinsale stepped out the other day in Christian Louboutin mary-janes, in a nude leather to compliment her white beaded dress.
Nike has made a shoe not even I would wearI like denim as much as the next man but when Daniel sent these to me I got a little scared. I love you dearly Nike and I'm planning to make myself a new pair very soon, but this shoe doesn't go over well with me.
Strapless bras yes... but strapless shoes?I guess someone had to have the idea eventually... a shoe that is completely strapless.
