Herver Leger

I couldn’t help but notice skyscraper high heels during this week’s fall 2009 fashion shows, particularly at Herver Leger by Max Azria, and thought I would look into some affordable options that are available now. I found several pairs of fall 2009 inspired  four-inch heels that perfectly capture the runway ’s uber-high look, making my petite, 5′1″ height to more of an average 5′5″! Incredible! A word of caution: do not even attempt to wear these if you think you may consume more than one cocktail, encounter a cobblestone street, stand for more than 2 hours, or have to walk more than three blocks.

Eventually, everyone visits Las Vegas. It’s a wonderland for adults filled with entertainment, colorful characters and excitement. As a seven-year resident, I know what you need to wear on your Vegas vacation; and I’ve got two words for you: glitz and glamour. Sin City is all about glitz and glamour, because everyday is a flashy party in neon-loving Las Vegas. So, glam it up. Think metallic, shine, bold prints and designer labels and you’ll fit right in with the happening Vegas scene. Below are the shoes I recommend for your perfect glitzy, glamorous Vegas vacation.

The metal squares adorning these Lydia platform sandals from Baby Phat would look great on the dance floor at Studio 54 located in the MGM Grand. 

Lady Luck is on your side with the Roulette Fantasy pump by Carlos Santana. Wear these while gambling on the casino floor at The Palazzo. While there, be sure to enjoy a margarita at The Lounge at Dos Caminos.

Nothing will attract attention like a pair of L.A.M.B. shoes. These gold metallic Gillian sandals are perfect for a day of shopping at Fashion Show Mall. Las Vegas’ most stylish mall features Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus and fashion shows throughout the day.

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Which means that Cupid is lurking somewhere deep in the shadows! Distract him with a totally fierce pair of heels this February 14th. Everyone knows the traditional V-day colors are red and pink. Follow the rules and find a great selection of red and pink shoes; from heels to flats to sandals to wedges. Wear them on your V-day date, girlfriend trip the movies or that Valentine’s Day dance.

We are not saying you HAVE to follow our lead, but here are a few selections worth of lots of love this Valentine’s Day.

Ready to wow your date with a sassy and gorgeous pair of heels that will easily compliment your already gorgeous legs? Opt for the bright pink Carrie 3 by Guess?.

Why not wear the mascot flower for Valentine’s Day on your very own shoes?! A rose never looked so beautiful and classy as a part of the Sydney Heel by L.A.M.B.

Looking for a simple flat to hang out with the girls? Then try this on for size! Less inches, but still as beautiful, the Ceasar Wedge by Jessica Simpson makes a fun date all its own!

If you are lucky enough to spend the holiday somewhere warm and tropical, this
Paris Hilton Camila Wedge makes for a saucy companion as you walk hand in hand by the beach!

I saved the BEST for last. No matter what plans you have on Valentine’s Day, be sure to give these Betsey Johnson Abby Heels a once over. They are my favorite (mostly cause of the fun heart additions) in the V-day department and would work incredibly well whether you are spending the evening dancing the night away, having dinner by fireside or enjoying a few cocktails with the ladies.

It doesn’t really matter who you are with this Valentine’s Day, but what truly matters is what you wear. Be sure to find “love at first sight” with every shoe you choose; Valentine’s Day and every other day!
