Weighing 14 ounces, and measuring seven inches long and six inches tall, these gourmet treats are individually handmade, and no two are exactly alike.

These chocolate shoes would make a great gift for anyone who loves shoes, chocolate, or both.

The original chocolate pumps (shown here) are offered in pink, milk, white or dark chocolate, and each shoe costs $40 (US). But before making up your mind, you'll want to check out the rest of Gayle's chocolate shoe collection, which includes metallic gold and silver chocolate mules, violet chocolate pumps, and several other fabulous footwear delights.

A Royal Come Back: High Top Shoes

During the 80’s, high top shoes created such a craze that the Japanese spent as much as $300 a pair to own these shoes. Quite an astronomical price to be paid for a pair of shoes back then! At that time every well known sneaker brands from Reebok and Nike to Converse offered excellent choices in sneaker style high top shoes. In 2009, the high top shoes have again made a royal resurgence and have stirred up the same frenzy and excitement among people all over the world.

Perhaps, what’s working behind the immense popularity of high top shoes is that they can double up as your sneakers. Moreover, the shoes give you the right ankle support.

Design-Your-Own Shoes

By Rachelle J. Hruska

[photo from NY Times]

I always wanted to design shoes....which is why Christmas came a little early for me, after reading the article titled "If the Shoe Fits, Wear It. If Not, Design One That Does." in the Sunday Times yesterday. I've heard of tennis shoe sellers like Nike and Vans giving customers the option of custom-designed sneaks, but I had no idea that this was available for fashion footwear. Apparently the Tupli store opened on Madison Avenue here in Manhattan by Kathy Myczowski and Tamara Chubinidze has been giving people the opportunity to design their own shoes specific to their individual taste and fit for quite sometime. However, at a starting price of $750 and with clients like Susan Sarandon, this isn't exactly a reasonable option for many. Which is why, when I read that Steve Madden had a similar option of designing your own shoe on their website, I was intrigued. There are more than 100,000 pairs available and range from only $90 to $170. You can go here to get started. If you are looking for a way to kill some time and like shoes, this is a perfect choice. I know from first hand experience as much of my Sunday night was wasted puttering around the site (for the record, I didn't even make a purchase, which makes me feel a little bit pathetic about the time I spent doing this!)

Cute Shoes

I am completely obsessed with shoes, so I felt I had to share with all of you some of the cutest shoes I’ve seen around. There are a lot of new fashions this season, but there are also lots of things that have come back from last season, so don’t throw anything out yet. Pretty much anything that’s cute, will look good on you. I especially like the peep-toes because they make any outfit extremely sexy as well as stilettos which are completely to die for!

These adorable peep-toe pumps are from J Lo’s shoe collection. They are absolutely amazing, especially for the summer. I especially like the ankle strap, so you can wear them either during the day or at night. The color is very interesting as well, a deep green with a black background, and a lot of intricate little details that add just the right touch to these ultra-feminine shoes.

These next shoes are probably one of my top choices (I’ve featured them on a previous blog) but I just can’t get enough of them! They are so perfect for the summer as they will go fabulously with anything from skinny jeans, to miniskirts, and all sorts of summer dresses. The wooden heel gives it a simple, natural look, while the floral pattern gives off a feminine vibe. These peep-toes will make your legs look absolutely amazing.

Now there is nothing better than a cute pair of espadrilles on a nice summer day. These sandals are very chic and modern, but simple and natural at the same time. Just the different design of the shoe is in itself an entirely new perspective. The color is an amazing red, which goes surprisingly well with the black and white rimmed straps. These are the perfect shoes for a stroll through the park and even a day at the beach.

Women's Shoes

Someone has rightly said that there are more types of women’s shoes then there are women themselves. And this just highlights the importance that shoes have in a women’s wardrobe. But often it becomes hard to choose the right shoe for the right occasion. Women often have to suffer immense pain just to look special with their shoes on. But that doesn’t mean that you have to look sloppy to be comfortable. Let me just simplify your hunt for the right shoe just a bit by giving you some basic tips about choosing a shoe.

• The Pumps:-
The pumps would be the best to be worn at your office or workplace. These shoes cover your entire foot and so also have a heel of any size.
• Stiletto’s:-
These shoes have high heels of 4-6 inches and wearing them is quite a punishment for your feet. But still they are very popular amongst the girls because they are really attractive. But one suggestion, just don’t wear them for too long
• Open Toe Dress Heal:-
This shoe has high heels generally of 3-4 inches. These look really trendy but you should not fall into the trap if you are not really comfortable wearing those.
• Sports shoes:-
If you work hard to stay fit and all charged up then you must have a good pair of sports shoes. They are a lot more comfortable than any other type of shoe and is not only for the fitness fanatics. Life today is very tiring and one needs to stay fit. So do have one of these in your wardrobe
• Summer Sandal:-
Summer sandals are a nice, comfortable and trendy option to go for. They go well with your party dresses and keep you all comfortable and attractive both at the same time.
• Evening Shoes:-
All those girls who call themselves party animals would definitely have a pair of these. These shoes are made to make you look absolutely splendid. Even if you party occasionally go for a cheaper version because everyone parties once in a while.
• Flat Or Skimmers:-
Ballet flats or skimmers are comfortable shoes that can be worn with jeans and Capri’s. These are not the most fashionable choice but definitely the comfortable one. If you want something more stylish then try the preppy versions of skimmers with bows and ribbons.

All these varieties of shoes should definitely make you feel comfortable for any occasion.

High heels prove a real pain for women

High heels are destroying women's feet, causing permanent damage to a third of women, according to new research.

High heels are destroying women's feet, causing permanent damage to a third of women, according to new research. Teetering around in several inches of heel not only hurts the feet, but causes accidents. More than a third of women have fallen while wearing them, the study found. The rise in popularity of such footwear has been encouraged by celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Victoria Beckham and Sarah Jessica Parker. One in 10 women now wear high heels three days a week, according to the study. The research, carried out by the American based shoe company MBT, examined 1,000 women and showed that the long term health of teenagers was particularly at risk with a growing number of under 18s wearing high heels before their bodies have fully developed. Current teenagers are 50 times more likely to have hip trouble than their mothers, while the number of girls suffering from back problems has also increased ten fold in the last generation, according to the study. Podiatrists have long criticised the high heel, warning women that they cause permanent damage. Common complaints from women who regularly wear them include heel pain and calluses. Such restrictive footwear can also cause bunions, ingrown toenails, nerve problems, stress fractures and "hammertoes" - a permanent bend in the middle joint of a toe. But the study concluded that flat pumps, popularised by model Kate Moss and singer Amy Winehouse, were equally problematic because they offer no support at all.

Heels: How much Height do they really add?

The Amazona team’s personal mission of trying to persuade tall girls and women to get into some heels is well evidenced. Not only do they improve your posture, give you better legs (and a better bottom!) and make you look more confident, they also improve your love life! (Check out our original blog ‘Why Tall Women Should Wear Heels’)

The single most cited reason for tall girls not to wear heels is that it makes them ‘just too tall’. Now our view is that this is just nonsense. If you’re like us (we’re between 5ft11 and 6ft2), then you’ll probably be the tallest person in the room, regardless of whether you wear high heels or not and quite frankly, with the average height here in the UK being 5ft7, the difference to someone looking up at you of 7 inches or 10 inches is not very much! It’s all relative to the shorties…

Luckily, we’ve just come across yet more evidence to support our views - high heels don’t add more than just over 2.5 inches to your height, regardless of the size of the heel! Now, it is best to qualify that statement somewhat - we are talking about heels with no platform. It’s all to do with how much your foot pivots (which is what happens when you wear heels). Don’t assume that 3.5 inch heels will add the same to your height because it’s unlikely they will unless you have a platform too).

If you don’t believe us, check out the full articles at celeb heights here.

So ladies, now there is no excuse not to grab a pair of fabulously high heels and embrace your height.
