In this post I’m presenting you two high-end pairs and two pairs with more reasonable, affordable prices. Let’s start with the more expensive ones.

These pictures have been taken back in October, but I didn’t had any time to post them so far – the time has come to feature them on my blog:

This pair has a 3,5″ heel and a 0,5″ platform and costs around $1080.

The other high-end designer product is the following pair:

It has 4″ heels and prices may vary from $800 to $1100. These sandals could be perfect for next spring/summer!

Please take a look a look at the low-price pairs. Both are by ALDO, and even though you can’t label them as extremely spectacular, they are still trendy and chick – please choose these over fake designer shoes!

The Fawson is available in three colors (gray, black and taupe) and costs $90, while the Segura has a wider range of colors (purple, gray, taupe, medium blue, med. silver, black satin, black suede and black patent) and costs $80-90.

Tell me if you like them

Looks like it’s been more than a week since i’ve last posted anything but i’ve kinda’  been busy trying to squeeze out of every pore i have some ideas for the advertising portfolio i just started. Conclusion ? It’s been an idea-less week.

Anyways, enough with the excuses.  Browsing among the oh-so-wonderful bags from net-a-porter.com i’ve come across these Jimmy Choo neon clutches. Well? Love them or hate them. There’s no in between.

Grandpa, hi, it’s me Lindsey, I’ve been as good as gold this year, minus the tombstone incident, and the university hiatus and I guess driving the Jeep into the ground, but I was thinking, maybe Santa would be so kind as to deliver these to me for Christmas. I know you know him pretty well, please pass the message on for me? Thanks, love you grandpa! xox

Fingertips’ resident fashionista Jessica Brown takes a look at the falling price of high-fashion

Never been able to afford that Chanel bag? You probably will soon, if things carry on the way they are. H&M has launched a new, affordable range of Jimmy Choos, and Vivienne Westwood is offering footwear at £80.

What’s more, Topshop’s new venture Dress Me Up will allow people to hire a celebrity’s dress for a day.

Are these all coincidences or is high fashion becoming more accessible? Women lust after Loubitons the same way men lust after Ferraris – because they can’t have them. As soon as designer clothes become more accessible, their appeal is lost.

Maybe the fashion world needs some serious lessons in supply and demand?

There is a large market for cheap designer clothes, a market that has definitely been recognised, with many websites offering discount designer clothes.

But isn’t that just a bit of a contradiction?

The ‘designer’ category has already expanded; with middle-market retailers such as FCUK and Firetrap assumed, by many shoppers, to be of the same esteem as brands like Chanel and Prada.

This begs the question, is the gap between high street and designer closing in?

Coco Chanel has been changing the face of fashion and giving new meaning to elegancy since 1913. Firetrap – founded 80 years later – has much more humble beginnings.

Fashion magazines fill their pages by advertising designer clothes, but many are trying to appeal to the everyday reader by including lower priced brands too.

While this is a good marketing tactic, it sends out mixed messages to fashonistas.

It’s human nature to want what we can’t have – this is the appeal behind the fashion industry.

Designer clothes sweep runways and inspire the audience – we marvel at them, write about them and gush over them. We even applaud them. Behind them is creativity, hard-graft, inspiration and a lifestyle we can only dream of.

Such clothes are inaccessible and any normal woman has ‘buy a pair of Loubitons’ somewhere on their list of life goals. Then when the day comes, slipping into those long awaited pair of shoes gives an indescribable ecstasy.

But before you drift off into a day dream of red patent stilettos, I must warn you: if the name of designer clothes is ruined, if we get any more excited at Primark’s prices, that glorious feeling of falling in love with upmarket fashion may become a thing of the past.

Designers are clever people, they’ve mastered branding better than the ubiquitous Hoover vacuum cleaner and that’s because the quality of their products never let customers down.

Designer clothes are investments which last a life time. They’re in a different world to their cheaper counterparts and this is where things have become a little mixed up. We’d love designer goods to be an everyday experience, but they’re not, and this is one of the reasons we lust after them.

In the near future, will there still be clothes that we spend our life saving on and justify as investment?

They’re expensive, but designer clothes give you that spring in your step, that little smirk as your label ‘accidently’ pops out of your dress.

At the very least, let’s just hope Kate Moss’ wardrobe is up for grabs from Topshop’s Dress Me Up – after all, we need something to look forward to.

Jimmy choo is the topic we chat several times. I hereby continue the narration of his legend. Appreciated by Rani Diana, Jimmy was greatly encouraged and many breakthrough happened in design. All the positive factors made Jimmy successful in business.

So far, many royal highness, pop stars and Hollywood stars are his clients. Madonna was stepping into the church with taking Jimmy choo high heels at her wedding. besides, many female movie stars choose this brand shoes to match their evening wear.

comparing with some top brands such as Chanel  and Louis vuitton, Jimmy choo seems very young. They should not be mentioned in the same breath, but its shoes now frequently be showed on the cover of fashions magazine as its popularity greatly enhanced.

The above remarks is what I know about it, and some one else will be discussed in the near future. Manolo blahnik is one of them I am interested in.

Generally, name of brand usually bore the name of its founder, so does Manolo blahnik. For years, Manolo has been regarded as a legend figure of the fashion circle and the greatest shoemaker all over the world. The shoes he design show elegance, uniqueness and sexy appearance as well. Most of customers were even willing to pay 400 pounds for one pair of shoes.

Yes, the famous are hard in the first half of their lives. So little of them live a prosperous life. Maybe bitterness is another good embodiment of wealth.

After almost a week of absence, I’m back with a dress made on Polyvore.

The main concept was to create a set with evening dresses – of course with fabulous shoes. Are the shoes the X-Factor?

I hope you like it and maybe you’ve found your new love regarding both the dresses and the shoes.

The shoes are made by L.A.M.B., Jimmy Choo, Rupert Sanderson, Halston, Thakoon and Christian Louboutin.

Details of the dresses are available here.

Aún no nos hemos recuperado de Jimmy Choo y ahora H&M nos trae otra grandiosa diseñadora. Sonia Rykiel es la nueva en la lista, y la firma sueca define la presentación de esta colección como el evento del año.

La aventura con la diseñadora francesa será todo de fantasía, y el Paris Grand Palais no podía ser mejor escenario. El 1 de diciembre será convertido en todo un Alicia en el País de las Maravillas.

¿Qué creará Sonia Rykiel para H&M? Lencería. Y sus ventas comenzarán el 5 de diciembre. Y los que no estamos en Paris, podremos disfrutar la transmisión en directo desde hm.com/soniarykiel (1 de diciembre 23:00 hora Paris).

Starting today, November 29th, online and in-stores, Jimmy Choos on sale!

These classic black pumps are $346 (lots of sizes available too!)

Nel mare magnum delle scarpe più amate di questa stagione ci sono senza dubbio anche loro, gli stivaletti con la punta aperta:

(Carlos Santana, $130, qui) 

Io li adoro, sono il più fine compromesso per chi, come me, ama stare con i piedi all’aria anche in autunno, senza però rischiare di passare le giornate più belle al letto con la febbre! E visto che il freddo vero ancora non arriva, sarebbero perfetti in questi giorni. Vediamo qualche altro modello:

Di questo modello firmato Alexander McQueen adoro i dettagli, ma non mi piace la scollatura anteriore così profonda.

Divini Louboutin, sicuramente non sono adatti per andare al lavoro, ma indossati devono essere sexy da far paura, anche se personalmente preferisco aperture un pò più ampie davanti.

Zanotti… che dire, quasi perfetti per me, davvero splendidi!

Ma i più belli e abbordabili che ho visto fino ad oggi sono questi, in camoscio grigio firmati Jimmy Choo per H&M:

Purtroppo ormai sono introvabili, ma io non dispero: la caccia è aperta per i miei peep toe ankle boots, vi terrò aggiornati!
