Kylie Minogue

Thigh-high boots are dangerous territory because they can easily look… well, wrong. Think cheap-y and stripperish! But let’s not make a hasty judgment here because over-the-knee boots can also look super hot and fabulous. Case in point? These Christian Louboutin OTK boots. The suede tones them down while the lacing detail gives them a Victorian feel. This is thigh-high boots done right, but oh, $1.995 for a pair? I think I’ll have to pass this time!

Jeffrey Campbell “Battalion” Over-the-knee Boots

So you want Louboutin style but for less – a lot less – right? Well, worry not, Jeffrey Campbell has got you covered. Don’t be fooled though, the “Battalion” boots are still pretty pricey at $370, but you do get to save a neat $1.625 in comparison to the real deal.

There’s something about YSL shoes that always keeps me fascinated. I think it’s how most of their shoes have this chunky, awfully impractical platform and the resulting ultra-high stiletto heel that comes with such a platform shape. Perfect examples are the Tribute sandals, the infamous YSL Trib Two pumps and also these black suede platform sandals below which I find myself being quite fond of.

Kylie Minogue Loves YSL

Kylie Minogue has always been a dedicated fan of Yves Saint Laurent and can be often seen wearing something YSL like 2 days ago when she was papped at the airport in Lisbon, Portugal wearing the cutout platforms.

Bebe “Maya” Leather Cutout Sandals

For weeks I was desperately trying to identify these Bebe knockoffs. I think I already mentioned my knockoff intuition in a previous post. I knew that these platforms were designer knockoffs, but I just couldn’t put my finger on it. The mystery is now finally resolved. If you prefer a different color and want to cut off the price by more than 50%, there is also a tiger-printed suede version of the Maya sandal available which is on sale for $38.49.

Looks like many celebrities are going gaga over this Jimmy Choo Vita Slingback Pump! I certainly can’t blame them as this pump goes great with skinny jeans and your party dress. I love Reese Witherspoon in these pumps! She looks ultra chic with her black coat and navy dress! Very European and very stylish, I must say. Who do you think wore the pump best? If you don’t want to be set back $750, we have a pretty nice steal for you!

Dolce Vita “Vivo” Peep-toe Slingback Pumps

In some ways I actually like this Dolce Vita “Vivo” Peep-toe Slingback Pump better than the Jimmy Choos! First off, the pump offers that elegant invisible platform and it also comes in a really pretty platinum version that has a hint of sparkle to it (as well as ivory satin). Plus at $169.95, I definitely would give this pump a try!

For the past 2 weeks, weather has been more than good here. Spring has finally sprung. Which also means it’s time to get out all those flirty maxi dresses, spice them up with a few statement accessories, put on some high heel platforms so your dress won’t be dragging on the floor and voilà you have a perfectly stylish maxi look à la Kylie Minogue. I love how Kylie styled her blush tiered maxi dress with the tan wide waist belt and matching tassel shoulder bag. So fab!

A trend refusing to die down is the ever-so-popular “rock chic“. Anything black, studded, buckled or wired fits perfectly into this category. Like these studded caged heels by Emilio Pucci for example. They might seem a little plain on their own, but look how amazing they look on Diane Kruger who paired them with a sexy white Hervé Léger number. Yummy!

Promise “Rockstar” Rhinestone Heels

If you’re not in a rockband and plan to wear these statement heels out every day, but still crave some Rock ‘n Roll on your feet, why not consider these budget-friendly heels by Promise? Apart from the price tag they’re practically twins. One major difference is that these are rhinestoned and not studded, but who doesn’t love a bit of bling? Available in a plethora of colors including black, gold, silver, white, yellow and fuchsia.
