Hiking with Heels

Since Azzedine Alaia's hiking boots are sold out at Browns £965 (Not that I could afford them anyway) Here's a few alternatives... Clockwise from far right: Kurt Geiger £110, Nicholas Kirkwood for Erdem £678, Office £98, Burberry Prorsum £800, Alberto Fasciani £690 (My favourite by far).

Andreia Chaves from Brazil designs are a world away from Havaianias. Her footwear concepts use exciting materials to involve the wearers surrounds. Pictured - "The invisible shoe".

Asolut Vodka limited edition for Selfridges, drink it whilst wearing Louboutin Flat Studded Loafers. (or a DIY version.)

Copy off Chloe's Wedges (above) with Topshop's £85 version, buy longer laces and tie them around the ankle for the full effect.

Doll retails for 770 Euros. Bargin.(www.colette.fr/)

Clogs!No longer for the dutch maidens. Be careful you do as Herve Leger (Above) and NOT Chanel (Below).

I can't help but ponder the inspiration for LV's new shoes...

McQueen S/S 10. Exciting, innovative but overall grotesque. Although I do like the shattered crystals, if you feel the need for crystals at least make sure they are jagged and angry. These would look beaut with some flowers in...

Alexander Wang S/S10 highlights. Recently I've been far too excited by wedges. These are a polished refined version of Acnes leopard print classics. I like the peep toes (plural) and it's refreshing to have a flat-to-the-floor no platform wedge. I'm already looking like a lobsided heidi longstocking with my plait. Just saving for some wonderful leather shorts...

Get involved- Jimmy Choo are helping raise awareness for a PEP vaccine- within 72 hours of exposure to HIV victims of rape can be saved from contracting it. Unusual collaboration but for an amazing cause. Currently hosting a photography competition which needs to involve shoes and the number 72. Winner wins 7 pairs of shoes and two bags- not to my taste- but the profit on ebay would be sweet. (http://www.jimmychoo72.com/)

Christian Louboutin has come under sabotage via desperate labelwanters painting their soles red. Oh Dear. Yet the brand still maintains it's edge through new projects, currently by working with David Lynch creating a great portfolio of Fetish photography. These pictures have inspired me to wear bold red lips.

I could kid people that I have nice feet with Comme Des Garcons £120 shoes..or get giddy with a marker pen and ruin perfectly nice brogues.
