Matthew Williamson‘s Spring 2009 collection was a welcome burst of color and it was one of my favorite shows of the season. Not only the clothes were absolutely adorable and lustworthy, but also the shoes which came in either pink, yellow, black or white.

The ankle strapped sandal has asymmetrical straps curve around the foot with solid patent straps across the toes. Here’s a more detailed view of the shoe:

Bebe “Bri” Satin & Patent Sandals
I don’t know what it is with Bebe. I wonder if they do anything else than copying other people’s work? Here’s another knockoff candidate. The “Bri” satin sandal comes in black and retails for $129.

I was lusting after these badass buckled Louboutins ever since I saw them on Heidi’s feet a few months ago. But spending 1.5k on a pair of shoes is nothing but a dream to me yet, so I raided the internet to find some budget-friendly alternatives.

Heidi Klum was the first to introduce the buckled Louboutins on the red carpet when she wore them with a cute strapless vintage dress to this year’s Golden Globes. Jennifer Lopez wore the same heels with an LWD, sleek hair and a matching white clutch.

If you loved Balenciaga’s Fall 2008 collection, you should check out my look 4 less alternatives on the shiny silver booties. Today, I stumbled upon another look 4 less from the very same collection, but this one’s featuring an LBD.

Bebe Shoulder Cutaway Sexy Slit Dress
If you want Balenciaga 4 less, try this LBD from Bebe. The material is different and it misses the folds on the hip, but otherwise it’s a great alternative and also available in blue. Plus, the dress is currently on sale for $90.99 down from $159. Yay!

Nicole Richie recently stepped out looking like an Egyptian/Boho princess wearing a white maxi dress with various House of Harlow 1960 pieces from her newest collection, including a standout black plated resin necklace, to celebrate the launch of her jewelry line at Kitson in West Hollywood. It was such a lovely, soft look for Nicole and I especially love her statement necklace and the brass coin headpiece.

Kim Kardashian was recently papped while she was leaving a nail salon where she got her feet pedicured. Kim looked very soft and feminine in a dusty pink Lela Rose asymmetrical dress. The black Chanel bag was a bit off, but she gets extra points for the ultra cute matching pumps. Kim’s makeup was flawless as usual.
