The gray satin on these Sergio Rossi shoes is stunning enough, but the rhinestone encrusted rolls on the vamps add a sense intrigue and glamor

D&G: First Going Colorful, Then Going Gold
The sharp eyes of Times and Herald Tribune immediately caught the new trends in the D&G collection during the Milan Fashion Week! Not that I expected less. Anyway, what my eye caught was this chic golden pair of Checkered Carla Pump in liberty.com. As already mentioned few times – we will be very shiny shiny this fall.

Isabella Fiore Daily Fix
Its Monday and I need a realy strong daily fix, and something from a fairy tale if possible to really get me out of here.
So speaking of fairy tales, Isabella Fiore easy comes to mind.
In this moody Monday my picks are the Cinderella pumps (aka Metallic Keyhole Pump) and The Snow White In Black (aka Peacock Loreen Wedge).
My instinct tells me that most of you will follow the shiny trend and choose the metallic pumps, but would you give it a second thought? The Peacock Loreens have African-like pattern… interesting

Designer Shoes
Alexander McQueen Shoes
The ankle strap is sexy and the color is fab, but what really make these Alexander McQueen shoes pop? The patent trim and the squared toe opening

Barefoot Running Shoes
Vibram's line of FiveFingers shoes (shouldn't that be FiveToes shoes?) are, um, unique. As an owner of Nike Air Rifts (that just have the big toe separated), I find these oddly appealing, yet disgustingly disgusting looking. I just hope none of my winter gloves catch sight of these things, because they'll fight them for being copycats. They sell for between $70-$100 and are allegedly great for all sorts of make believe sports like ChiRunning, Pose Method Running, and Bouldering. And, if they're anything like my barefoot style running shoes, they're even greater at smelling like ass.

Weightlifting Shoes 101
Ever thought about the shoes that you wear to the gym? Of course you have. You've actually spent some time thinking about which shoes to wear, and you probably have a pair designated as your "gym shoes". How did those shoes earn that illustrious title and serve such a noble purpose? Suitability for the task? Performance enhancement? Safety? Not usually. Comfort and looks seem to be the main criteria associated with gym shoe choice. This is a problem if your training includes any free weights at all. Most of us would never consider wearing a pair of Bruno Magli's to play racquetball. They are built to look good, not to perform well on the court. While this may be obvious to some, many of us will make an equally poor footwear decision and wear running shoes to the gym to lift weights.

Manic Monday at the ASOS sale!
there's one thing I love more than shoes, it's a shoe sale! ASOS, in their usual way, is having a clearance of many fabulous styles - perfect for tucking away until next spring/summer or to wear to death between now and then. With choices like peep-toes (which, if you'll remember, are perfect for winter with a pair of thick tights!), Mary Janes and quite a selection of flats, plimsolls and trainers, why not take advantage? For our picks, see after the cut.

MP3 shoes look totally awesome, dude
Some clever geniuses felt your regular shoes just didn't have enough integrated CD-ROMs, speakers, tweeters, and a volume control knobs, so they put this little concept together. Forget the fact that there's no way a CD will read in a moving shoe, but look at it. I mean really, look at it. It's like how they predicted the shoe of the future would look like in the 80's.
