The femme fatale of footwear?


The other day whilst flicking through the pages of Grazia I stumbled upon the most amazing pair of green snakeskin stiletto's by shoe designer Charlotte Olympia. I have seen her shoes before and thought that they were gorgeous but I had never really given THAT much attention to them so I decided to do my research.Hot new footwear label Charlotte Olympia is the brainchild of Cordwainers graduate and London IT girl Charlotte Olympia Dellal. The half-Brazilian, half-English designer is inspired by the glamour of the 40s and 50s and her statement making block color sandals and quirky-cool shoe boots are already a hit with style setters Kate Moss and Sienna Miller. Needless to say the heels are virtiginous but they have such a maticulous approach to detail in particular the signature gold spider web on the sole of each shoe. I have been coveting the collection for days and am in desperation for the Genie wedges (shown center above) from the showtime collection but i could settle for the majority of the label at any means. Well it's one way to make heads turn...
