Pierre Hardy’s 2009 Gap collection of suede boots have received much buzz. Seems like the public is anxiously awaiting its arrival. They were once slated to debut in mid-September. Now they are said to come out in November. Here are a few pics of the boots that should arrive soon. Just to check the iffy dates, I went into the Gap last week and had not spotted them.

Nonetheless here’s what you are waiting for …

I really like the fold down top and chunky heel. These ought to be really comfortable.

Now here are a few picks from Heels! They’re suede and stylish!

Betsyville Obrian II Boot

Hot evening wear. Mitten-like top will keep you warm.

Buttons … nice detail to pair with a hoodie.

I like to the short chunky heel and two tone beige combination.

Lindsay Lohan’s mom–Dina Lohan is collaborating with NY-based shoe company–LoveMyShoes.Com on her very own shoe line. Dina says that new shoe line will consists of styles priced under 100 bucks, hoping the shoes will sell with a recession-proof price tag. Line is said to launch Spring 2010. The press, I believe, is calling it ‘Shoe-han,’ but this 300 mom is protecting all cubs, her daughters and new shoe line. She has pleaded with the press over her daughters’ reputations and denied that the new shoe line is even called ‘Shoe-han.’ Here are a few links to articles that I’ve found all about Dina Lohan’s alleged Shoehan!

I think every woman wants to don a pair of 4-5″ heels and be able to strut through their city’s streets effortlessly.  Many women don’t seem to realize that walking with ease in skyscraper heels is a learning process, one that requires tools to help you get there.

Bicycles have training wheels and young women have training bras.  So for those of us wanting to jump in to great heights, why shouldn’t we buy training heels?  In Such Great Heights, I advocate buying heels in a variety of heights, both for happy heels, ankles, and feet, but also for training purposes.

Here I’ve compiled a list of shoes, all with a 3″ or less heel that are hip, stylish, and great preparation for jumping in to those stilettos!

The Brindle Heels boots by Report have a 2″ covered wedge, creating a discrete lift while providing a manageable height to walk in.

Corso Como is, by far, one of the most comfortable shoe brands I’ve ever worn, from flats to 4″ heels. I’ve been lusting a bit after the Carson Mary Jane; with its 3″ wedge, it goes from a day at the office to a night of dancing with a change of skirt & shirt.

Also by Corso Como is the Cab Boot. With a delicate, stiletto heel that measures in at just under 3″, it’s a deceptive way to look more coordinated and sexy.

Despite being the High Heels blog, there are many amazing options on Heels.com for that all ring in between 1.5-3″.  Not too high, and great practice for those skyscraping nights!
