Etro T-Strap Pump   Manolo Likes!  Click!

Manolo says, here is something unusual and fun from the Etro, the t-strap pump in the deep red suede. This is the wonderfully autumnal shoe, perfect for the languorous late afternoons spent watching the leaves change on the trees in the park across the street from the French bistro.

Black Patent and Gold by Emilio Pucci    Manolo Likes!  Click!
Manolo says, here is the most beautiful and elegant black patent and gold shoe from the Pucci. Yes, it is something different from the Pucci, as it does not employ or make reference to colorful Pucci pattern. But it is so beautiful, and look, the soles are made of gold!

Or perhaps the golden metallic leather. In any event, Pucci makes the smiles!

Manolo says, it is Friday, and what better way to celebrate being the Disco Queen of Suburbia than with the exuberantly purple, metallic, platform peep toes from the Dolce and the Gabbana?

Manolo says, here is something bright and cheery with which to begin your Thursday, the red snakeskin pumps from the Maestro Manolo Blahnik.

Manolo says, here is the Rock from Donald J. Pliner, in the black suede and the brown antique “gator”.

The Manolo finds this shoe ever so faintly Marie Antoinette-ish, but in the good ball-gowns-and-frippery way, not in the “Let-them-eat-cake” while-being-dragged-to-the-guillotine way.

Manolo says, Yes, that strikingly handsome man who asked you out this morning at the coffee shop is at least ten years older, but how could you not say yes?

His eyes were blue, the hair at his temples silver, and his Hermes tie yellow. When he suggested dinner at La Goulue, it was all more than you could resist.

But now, what to wear?

Look! Here is the beautiful burgundy D’Orsay pump from the Charles David!


Patent and Suede from Delman

Manolo says, her is the unusual and attractive shoe from the Delman, one that would be suitable for wearing into the place of employment. And yet, even as these shoes are suitable for the professional wearing, the combination of the patent and the suede gives the shoe just the right quantity of fashion drama.


The Dipwit

Manolo says, this platform peep-toe pump from Stuart Weitzman is not unattractive, indeed, it has much to recommend it. Unfortunately, this does not include the name..

But, as the readers of the Monolo know, the shoe designers sometimes go off the rails when naming their shoes.

Manolo says, yes, it is only Wednesday, but it is not at all too early to think about what you will wear this weekend. And what could be better than these super fantastically vibrant, racy red shoes from the Betsey Johnson?

Va Va Va Vooooooooooom!
