Ultra glamorous wooden wedges from Roberto Cavalli are so fabulous with embellishments coveting the modern summer trends. The metal studs and curvy buckle seem gorgeous.

When I saw them in Net-A-Porter, I thought of throwing some couple of bucks on these pairs though they are too pricy ($1,850). Yet I neither I decided to cart them to home nor just said "nay" to them.

Before adding those to my wish list I would like to know what you guys think of these bold wooden pairs. Do you think Roberto Cavalli Runway Wooden Wedges Sandals are worth investing? Love it or Hate it?

Opel Agila High-Heel Shoes are as amusing as new Agila minicar. As a part of the Opel's promotional campaign, these shoes are created by Luca Stappers and introduced at Amsterdam's Shoebaloo shoe shop on April 2.

I am so happy on seeing the vitality and growing popularity of shoe fashion spreading all over the world.

Quite an unconventional design, resembling the front end of the car, and moreover the result of the examination of the relationship between women and cars. I wonder if the headlights work!!!

Brooks Racers ST3 Shoes designed for enhanced stability and cushioning for those who have moderate over-pronation. Being a light shoe, they are completely suitable for tempo training and race distances from 5K to marathon. New technologies and materials used in Brook Racers ST3 White Pearl Poison Green shoes render maximum flexibility and comfort.

One of the Zappos customer review goes like this, "This is the most natural feeling shoe I've run in. When I first started, I was instructed to wear a motion control shoe to compensate for overpronation. Over the years I've realized that wearing less shoe actually helps improve my form, and results in less pain. The Racer ST has a perfect fit, is lightweight and allows me to have comfortable, fast training runs. I love that there is the slightest gel cushion in both the forefoot and heel, but really the shoe feels invisible and just lets you run... Have always loved the aesthetics of the Racer ST series."

They are in both poison green and red (I would prefer poison green...someone has asked for orange color). You can speed up your running program by bagging Brooks Racers ST3 at zappos.com for $89.

Christian Louboutin, a name that is influencing the fashion world for more than a decade, a name that is known for the trademark red sole, and a name that would tempt women to spend in Dollars, even sparing their house rent. The FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology ) Museum is currently holding an exhibition of Christian Louboutin shoes which are recently designed for display. The exhibit titled "Sole Desire - the Shoes of Christian Louboutin" is organized from March 13 to April 19, 2008, The Museum at FIT in New York City. Don't worry if you are unable to attend, an online display is available for Louboutin lovers. Official Press release goes like this

Christian Louboutin's red-soled shoes have combined wit, glamour, and a certain "je ne sais quoi" to embody the perfect blend of sex appeal and beauty. The first exhibition to examine the career of this influential designer, Sole Desire: The Shoes of Christian Louboutin, will be on view at The Museum at FIT March 13 through April 19, 2008. It is organized and curated by FIT graduate students in the Fashion and Textile Studies: History, Theory, Museum Practice Master of Arts program.

The exhibition will showcase examples of Louboutin's work from the collection of The Museum at FIT and the archive of Christian Louboutin. Not only will it highlight his innovative designs, but it will illustrate his understanding of today's clientele and his contributions to contemporary fashion.

Born in 1963, Louboutin began his career early, sketching shoes at age 11. Frequenting nightclubs during his formative years, he was forever influenced by their high fashion and glamour. In 1988, after freelancing for design houses such as Maud Frizon, Chanel, and Yves Saint-Laurent, Louboutin joined Roger Vivier, a legend in shoe design, where he learned the importance of presentation. In 1989, after finishing his work with Vivier, Louboutin took a leave from fashion to work as a landscape designer. He successfully returned to the industry in 1992 with a collection of his own that integrated an Asian influence and the inspiration of gardens in the designs of his shoes and boutiques.

As his career developed, this designer brought the seductive stiletto out of the closet and into mainstream society, carrying along with it ideas of sexuality and eroticism that characterize the style of the Louboutin shoe.
