Jessica Chastain is one of favorite Hollywood stars and she never disappoint when it comes to arriving on red carpet events all glamorous and never missing a fashion point. She is known for her classy with a hint of edgy style but not as edgy as her look at the Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. She paired her little black dress with those bespoke Gucci dragon boots. Gasp!



This Gucci dragon boot features embroidered dragon on green silk upper. Its block heel measures 3 inches with crystal embellishment for extra luxurious appeal.

Celebrity Shoes: Salma Hayek in Gucci studded platform sandals


Salma Hayek raided grandma's closet for her appearance at the SiriusXM event in LA. In a desperate attempt to look young, she wore a pink platform sandals by Gucci. While her floral dress is a disaster, those shoes are actually fierce.


It may be in the sweetest pink but the details are not for the faint of heart. The platform front measures 2.5 inches while the heel is a towering 4 inches--that is an added 6 inches to your height. The gold tone studs accentuate the T-bar while the feline head guards the toe. She could be yours for a measly $1,100 to $1,490 at Gucci.

The Craziest Designer Shoes

It has been a while since I posted about shoes that are on the crazy side but are on the market for the small margin of customers who are giddy about extraordinary shoe designs. Those shoes do not come cheap, though, because most of them are designed and produced by established brands and they are launched on the runway. Take a look at some of the daring shoe designs so far.

Dolce & Gabbana "Carretto Siciliano" printed pumps, $4,995.
This Dolce & Gabbana pump is actually fun to look at. It reminds me of fiestas, carnivals and pizzas. The crazy thing about it is the heel in the shape of a woman who looks like a queen because of the embellished heel atop her head.

Gucci "Queer Core' embellished pumps, $2,390.
This lady debuted on the Resort 2017 runway. It also comes in black, light blue and white. What's crazy about this shoe is that it is a brogue with buckled toe, crystal embellished heel and the three straps that go up above the ankle. It actually looks like a 4-in-1 shoe--pumps, brogues, sandals and boots.

Balmain "Constance" suede pump, $1,585.

The only crazy thing about this Balmain pump is the exaggerated tongue that creates an illusion of a boots if you look at it in front. It also comes in all black suede. It's Balmain and I bet Kim Kardashian-West won't mind owning one.

Aquazzura "Voodoo" sandals, $1,950.
So, this Aquazzura sandals is tribal inspired. Tassels and beads are recurring embellishments on shoes in the past few years but when added with feathers to tickle your legs, that's something.


Tom Ford buckled strap sandals, $1,790.
Unstable heel? Check! Multiple buckles? Check! Crazy! But in all honesty, I would love to try this on.

Vetements + Manolo Blahnik satin boots, $4,225.
This is what Rihanna and Kim Kardashian-West wore a few days ago. Riri wore the bright orange version while Kim had it in black. The crazy feature of this boots is that it goes way up to the hips--the waist, almost, if you are petite. This design collaboration is from the Spring 2017 collection.

Chanel tweed sneaker boots, $895.
This shoe has an identity crisis. Period.

Shoe Suggestions for Charlize Theron


For the promotion of The Fate of the Furious in Beijing, China, Charlize Theron opt to wear head to toe Louis Vuitton  and accessorized it with Anita Ko jewelries. While her mug is flawless, I think this is not the look for her because we know her to be sophisticated and all glamour n the red carpet. If she had worn pumps or strappy sandals to show off those sexy feet, instead of those boots, it would have made a difference.

Take a look at our shoe suggestions for Charlize...

Christian Louboutin "Kaleikita" spiked sandals, $1,295.


Gucci satin pump, $870.

Gucci 'Princetown' mule


This is a mule.

With a horse bit detail.

Not a mule mule. It is a slipper made of dyed lamb fur.


It also looks like a sad furry dog, a wind blown hair of Donald Trump, a wig... the possibilities are endless!

Image from polyvore.com

The mule is from the label's Fall 2015 collection. Wear it inside your house, preferably, because you don't want to mess up the fur with mud and dirt.

Get it at neimanmarcus.com for $1,800.

Shoe Suggestions: Naomi Watts in chunky peep toes

Photo from E! Online.

Naomi Watts arrived at the Tribeca Film Festival wearing a printed Alexander McQueen tea-length dress that took inspiration from a church's stained glass window. A red clutch was perfect to accessorize the dress but it was those chunky peep toes that ruined it.

May I suggest these shoes for the lovely Ms. Watts?

Shopping at Saks Fifth Avenue


It's been a long time since I checked out Saks Fifth Avenue's shoes and I think I have missed quite a lot. Their primary banner features gift suggestions for Christmas while their shoes and handbags section features Gucci's collection for spring and Jimmy Choo's collection for fall.

Here are the things that I bought (in my dreams):

If there is one closet that I would like to raid, it is Diane Kruger's. During the Gucci/Vogue Paris dinner, she wore a Gucci dress and 'Kelis' sandals from the brand's Spring 2011 Collection.

You can buy the black, blue and metallic gold from the brand's official website for $795. The metallic gold costs $995 because it is made of snakeskin. The purple one can be bought at Saks for $795.

Shoes as White as Snow

Winter is getting nearer and nearer which means everything outside the house will be covered with snow.  That's my inspiration for posting white shoes today.  White isn't really the color of the season but who cares when you have really gorgeous white shoes in your closet?  A piece of advice, wearing sandals during winter is a hell no.











Christian Dior 'Initiales' peep toe pump with medallion detail, $456 at Bluefly.

Gucci patent leather 'Audrey' pump

This pump means serious business.  The four silvertone studs add character to this basic round toe pump.  The slightly chunky heel is great if you are a bit clumsy.  This Gucci 'Audrey' pump is in patent leather which means that all it needs is a little swiping with cloth to make it shiny again.  You can have this at Bluefly for a really reasonable price of $396.

Logo Loco

Admit it guys, you own at least one monogrammed shoe.  I perfectly remember, seven years ago when Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Fendi, and all other expensive brands logo showing off on almost every known thing wearable. It was a fad and a symbol of a certain social status.  I admit to owning a Fendi monogrammed mule that I wear almost everyday in the office.  After almost ten years, monogrammed and designer logo showing things are making a silent come back in the world of shoes.

Dolce & Gabbana beige leather logo pumps, $550 $440 at Bluefly.

Gucci beige GG canvas 'Bamboo' pumps, $525 $420 at Bluefly.

Fendi tobacco zucca bow charm peep toe pumps, $550 $440 at Bluefly.

Gucci 'Debra' platform sandals

For Gucci's Spring/Summer Collection, they try to capture the textures of the season like mimicking the bamboo and incorporate it to the heel of this sandal.  I am not sure about the material used for the heel, it is as clear as glass so I guess acrylic or the same type was used.  You can have a pair from the official Gucci website for $990.

Gucci Clemence platform wedge sandals

 
While I try to figure out how to walk  in this without breaking a bone, visit Saks Fifth Avenue and get yourself one if you like it.  I don't like the idea of stumbling while sashaying a beautiful ensemble like what happened to Agyness Deyn in Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief Haiti runway show, but I have a crush on this shoe.

I like it better than the white version, though.
