You guys know I love Alexander McQueen shoes, with one small detail he made this simple black pump a rocker chic accessory. I hope the brand keeps the skull part of his signature style, although it’s a bit telling of his thoughts and eerie considering his end.

The shoe is a black leather pump with a 4.5 inch heel and a .5 inch platform. The crystal and silver tone skull sits atop the small open toe. $879 at zappos.com.

Giuseppe Zanotti shoes are among my favorites because his designs are always stylish and flattering, never any of that ugly ‘artistic’ pieces. These sequined and beaded sandals are among the latest releases and feature both silver and gold tone hardware, so they can be worn with almost anything, and yes that includes a casual look like demin and simple t. In fact, sometimes that’s my favorite look for dressy sandals.

They have a leather insole and leather lining and have a 4 inch gold tone heel. $1,095 at zappos.com.

When I first laid eyes on these Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, I wasn’t sure I liked them. The concept is great, crystal covered, open toe, ankle boots, but the multi color….hmmm. However, seeing them on a model, I absolutely love them. They look fabulous with black leggings or a LBD.

They are black leather and embellished with colored crystals. They have a 4.5 inch silver heel. $1,250, Available at Endless.com, along with lots of new Giuseppe styles.

I LOVE these Alexander McQueen shoes! So very cute/sexy. The ‘lips’ theme was one of the last McQueen was working on, and designed a fabulous clutch around the symbol, similar to what he did with the skull clutch.

These strappy sandals have a 4.5 inch heel and a .5 inch platform. $869 at zappos.com

I have never heard of the label Jo No Fui, but they make a fabulous boot. The pins covering the boot give it a unique look, that I haven’t seen before.

The boots are made of canvas cotton and have leather straps with a buckle and a peep-toe.  The pins give them that stand out, ultra chic look.  Wear with skinny jeans and a distressed tee for a rocker chic effect!

Available at LUISAVIAROMA, $1,925.

I’ve been eyeing these Christian Louboutin shoes for a few weeks now. They are pretty, with classic sophistication. The knot detail is a bit reminiscent of 50’s style, a la June Cleaver, but I love it. I know I would get a lot of wear out of these shoes, pairing them with anything from denim to a LBD. They are on the low end price wise for Loubies, so, yes, I’ve talked myself into getting them.

They are black and white stripe damas fabric pumps with a peep toe and knot detail on upper. They have a 1 inch covered platform and a 5 inch heel and signature red sole. Available at Mytheresa.com, $774.

These Alexander McQueen shoes are from his Spring and Summer 2010 collection and match his paint splatter ‘Faithful’ Tote. These boots are very much the McQueen style, something I hope the brand can maintain without their namesake. They are navy textile with paint splatters and have a 4.75 inch heel with a .75 inch platform. $1,089 at Zappos.
