Trend Alert: Studded Boots

FabSugar — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Check it: studded boots aren't just for the rough and tough biker babes. Today, any girl with a little bit of funk in her can sport these badass, embellished boots. Notice how Sienna Miller, English model Sarah Harding, and Megan Fox wore studded boots in very different ways. Sienna looked like a bohemian girl in a slouchy, suede pair by Vivienne Westwood; Sarah took the rocker route - with her utterly adorable Frenchie - in a hard-hitting strappy pair; while Megan stayed California cool and paired her slick, knee-high boots with jeans and a bright cardi.

Fab Body Guide: Sandals For Stubby Toes

FabSugar — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 02:00:22 -0700

Stubby toes and sandals aren't exactly a match made in heaven. Most sandals tend to make stubby toes look even shorter, and who would want that? Instead of foregoing the whole idea of wearing these pretty confections, look to specific styles that will stretch those toes to the limit.

To learn which sandals work wonders for stubby toes, read more.

Give the illusion of longer toes with straps that cover where your toes begin.
Stay away from thongs and anything that will expose the whole top portion of the foot.
Purchase sandals that leave little space between the toes and the front of the shoe.

Trend Alert: The Weave

I have always been drawn to the weave. I think it's my lifelong adoration for Bottega Veneta (see amazing Spring wedge at left) and its luxurious woven leathers. Because Bottega has been around for so long, many copy cats have chimed in on the earthy motif. On shoes, this style is ideal - it's interesting, cool and slightly '70s - right up my alley.

When we are getting ready for Fall back in August, we told you that Mary Janes would be totally in this season. Well, Fall is here and Mary Janes have been spotted everywhere. Another fun twist on the classic style is the Mary Jane wedge. I particularly like wedges because they allow you to wear a high heel, but are actually relatively comfortable. Here are some of my picks for Mary Jane Wedges:
