Giuseppe Zanotti

UPDATE: This post has been updated on April 26, 2012. Scroll down to see the new add.

One of the most distinctive shoe styles of 2011 have been Giuseppe Zanotti‘s extreme wedge styles for me. I’ve loved them the second I saw them online. They do scare me a lil’ bit with their crazy 6 inch heel, but I still want them in my closet so badly. Not convinced yet? Check out the celebs letting their Zanottis do all the talking and I’m pretty sure they’ll land on your wish list, too.

This blue suede platform pump is probably one of my absolute favorites from Giuseppe Zanotti. I love the sky-high heel, the shape, the vibrant blue suede and for a Zanotti shoe this pump isn’t even too expensive at $650. Of course, still too pricey for my own budget…

You gotta admire Giuseppe Zanotti for his fearless approach to designing shoes. Take these colorful colorblock wedge sandals for instance. These look like they belong into a kid’s room rather than on the feet of a grown woman and even though I can’t think of too many outfit options to pair these with it’s still a very fun-looking shoe and probably would work well with a monochrome look at an event where drinking alcohol excessively is a socially accepted pastime (e.g. a Bachelorette party). But would I ever spend $695 for a pair of designer heels that look like LEGO? Nope.

Plus, you can get them in ivory too if you’re looking for more versatility and prefer to let your other accessories take center stage. Either way, make sure you paint your toes in a dark or bright shade (depending on your skin tone) to echo the fabulous contrast of these heels.

Beige pumps have become more prominent this past year, but sometimes the conservative design can look a bit drab and lackluster. On the other hand, take these Giuseppe Zanotti Suede Ankle Strap Pumps. They exude brilliance and are the ultimate example of how a nude pump should be designed. The cork platform allows one to wear them for more casual affairs, but at the same time can be styled for formal occasions. If you love this style, but the price is simply beyond your limit, then take a look at the look-a-like below!

These Steve Madden “OPTICALL” Suede Platforms mirror the pumps by Giuseppe Zanotti. Besides the slight color difference, they are one-for-one. In fact, all design elements are incorporated. The shape and structure are also very similar adding to the look-a-like factor. Most importantly, these are priced at $109.95 which definitely is a much more affordable price point.
