Famous pop-singer-cum-celebrity wife-cum-designer Victoria Beckham has Paris Hilton following in her footsteps. No we are not implying any wedding plans for Ms. Hilton in the offing. In fact, it is the ‘designer’ streak that brought up the comparison in the first place. The ‘love her, hate her but you cannot ignore her’ Paris is back in news with the launch of her very own line of shoes. And this one is solely dedicated to all the pretty brides in town.
So far, the collection features four very stylish shoes for women all set to walk the aisle. The names of these models are Senorita, Belina, Destiny and Regal, and all of these feature a bow as an integral element.

Time has come (in most places across the world) to grab your skates and sip hot chocolate in a skating rink with your bumchums. We are not suggesting any major deviation from that except for some real luxurious and classy skates to replace the rather common ones you already own. We are referring to a collection that goes by the name of ‘In the world of animals’ that comes with 15 different models of stylish skates that have been hand decorated with sparkling Swarovski crystals all over.
In fact, we hear that famous figure skater Anastasia Grebenkin, who is also known as an actress and radio broadcaster, was quite perturbed with the missing sparkle in her attire required for an otherwise flawless and elegant sport. Well, now she cannot complain anymore.

The holiday season is almost here. One month is just enough time to equip yourself with good presents for both oneself and those near and dear around. And you will agree when we say that Christmas and New Year deserve you stepping up in the style quotient too. Nothing is too blingy or snazzy for the festive mood. In fact, the more larger than life, the better it is. Take the Mirror Mosaic Strappy Sandals for instance. These come from the fashion house of Thakoon and promise to bring a much needed zing to your Christmas or New Year outfit.
OK, they are over the top but definitely in a good way. These dazzling pair of footsies flaunt silver mirrored leather with brick-efect paneling. The black suede trim gives a very clean finish. Even the cutout effect along with the angled peep toe opening lend their own magic to the whole affair. Your feet will sure be pampered!
