Superhero Chic Meets the Stiletto: Kathryn Amberleigh Shoes, $29
Two of my favorites together at last. Cheap shoes + Superheroes. You can’t deny that these look like the types of towering slip ons that a real wonder woman would wear. And best of all these Kathryn Amberleigh’s are only going to set you back $29 bucks.

Elizabeth & James + Steve Madden
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have teamed up with Steve Madden for an Elizabeth & James shoe line.
Slated to hit stores in mid-2009, the Olsens will serve as creative directors to Madden’s design and sales team.
As a regular fan of MK’s shoe choices, I am quite excited to see what they come up with!

Alice + Olivia + Payless = Happy
Ah, I finally got my Alice + Olivia for Payless Rivington Ankle Boots.
Black patent. Zipper. 4.5″ wedge hell. 1″ platform. Peep-toe. They’re so absurd that I’m in love them. It’s getting pretty serious. We’re already checking out china patterns and hosiery.
Watch out, Mary-Kate.

Insa Heels
London-based graffiti artist Insa and shoe designer Ruth Shaw have teamed up for Insa Heels, whose website officially launches today.
“The Cigarette,” is the first style so far, available in three designs (”The Levishan” colorway is above). The stilleto is leather with a high gloss finish. Insa appeals to a wide demographic by combining the sex appeal of a spike heel with modern streetwear graphics.
The shoes sell for about $400.

Extras Extras: When Can We Read All About It?
Until they gain stable enough footing to expand their lines into accessories collections, or they start out focusing on extras, smaller apparel designers aren’t known for the side dishes, like shoes and handbags. The major fashion houses seem to maintain that monopoly: Balenciaga shoes routinely become iconic, Fendi and Marc Jacobs churn out “it” bags like soft serve; and earlier this year Kaiser Karl brought us an entire carousel of giant Chanel accessories.
So far this season we’ve seen unremarkable accessories in the Elie Tahari show, and Jason Wu’s models sported some hot peeptoe pumps (above). And… thats it. And while we’re only a day in and still awaiting snaps of many of the shows, the accessories front seems pretty barren.
While a lot of designer pieces and overall looks can be easily replicated without paying thousands of dollars, shoes tend to spark fashion revolutions and hysterics. Those little extras are what create the buzz, the wait lists, new fans and backlash. They’re the protein of the runways! Over the next week I expect a buffet of life-altering accessories trends. If the only extras for spring are the goody bags at the tents, we’ll have to settle for last season’s leftovers.
