Buckle-up your shoes to remain in style
One, two buckle my shoes – no, its not just kids who are uttering these words now a days. From A-list celebs to fashion conscious women on the street – everyone seems to be demanding shoes with buckles these days. So if you have still not, then you had better grab a pair, as stylists all over the net have declared that shoes with buckles are a hot fashion trend this season.
It’s all in the details
Taking note of the current trends, shoe fashion observers suggest that there is a huge emphasis on details these days. Shoe designers are making use of everything from buckles to straps to laces and studs to make their creations look absolutely stunning. Moreover, celebs are fuelling demand for so called "stripper shoes" complete with bling, tassels, faux fur, seductive buttons, bold buckles, rope chains, laces and ribbons and towering killer heels by flaunting their prized possession not just on every red carpet but also while going out on the town.
Stylists believe the whole idea behind putting in so many embellishments in shoes is to make them stand out. Today, women want to make their presence felt and want everything about them to be noticed and this also includes shoes. Hence, fashionistas are increasingly going for bold shoes detailed with jewels, fringes and a lot of buckles.
Buckle Trends
During the reign of Charles II, buckles were used in place of shoe-laces to help fasten the shoe. That is to say, they served a purpose. But today, buckles are mostly used for ornamental reasons in high fashion shoes. Going crazy over the magical power of buckles, fashionistas feel the whole look of the shoe changes with the addition of a single buckle and many buckles make it look ultra-glam. For instance, simple pump shoes get a whole new look when embellished with an oversized buckle.
Top notch shoe designers likes Marc Jacobs, Steve Madden, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent and others have added a glam look to their shoes with stylish buckles and celebs have happily embraced the trend. Today, when you scour the net for sexy shoes designs you will find that every stylish pair of shoes is embellished with a buckle. Stilettos, pumps, wedges, sandals or booties are ornamented with buckle closures that go across the ankle or even over several parts of the foot and are increasingly being used to make women’s shoes appear bold while at the same time aesthetically appealing.
Though buckles are styling a range of ladies shoes, the use of buckles is more prominently noticeable in ankle strap shoes, sling backs, gladiator shoes, booties, and knee length and thigh high boots. Functional or ornamental, the strapped-in aesthetic of the buckle provides an updated, sexy take on a pair of knee–length and thigh high boots.
Some of the more popular styles in buckle shoes include shoes ornamented with circle and square buckles to give an eccentric look, shoes decorated with as many as five buckles, shoes embellished with a combination of buckles and zippers and shoes with discreet buckles.
A smart way to make a stunning buckle shoe look sexier is to keep the same metal throughout the outfit. From the hardware on your bag and shoes to bangles and necklace all the metals should match. Make the most of the buckle shoe trend and wear your buckle embellished shoes with stylish trousers, dresses, and shorts.

2009 Shoes Fashion Trends: Shoes trends for Spring/Summer 2009
Shoe trends for Spring/Summer 2009 Shoes are currently becoming the top fashion accessory which is made more obvious by the exotic shoe trends anticipated for spring/summer 2009. Designers have created some of the most shoe styles ever that will force fashionistas to max out their credit cards even in the time of the recession. To help you choose the most fashionable shoes and keep you up to date with the Vitoria Beckhams and Paris Hiltons, here is a quick guide to shoe fashion trends for 2009. Read this to find out about the hottest shoes that’ll help you sizzle your way into summer.
EXTREME HIGH HEELSModels’ legs are becoming even longer as we move further into 2009, not that they need it though, due to the extreme high heels that are dominating the fashion scene. It’s been reported that famous shoe designer, Christian Louboutin is all set to launch heels higher than 7 inches this spring. Stylists warn that fashion-conscious women will really need to have great balance if they wish to keep up with the shoe fashion trends for 2009 summers.
Stilettos to rule - According to stylists, spindly stiletto heels are to hold their prime position in the shoe world, and this time they are armed with a few extra inches on the heel. Women who are a bit hesitant of the trend will find some solace in the fact that a few inches of a platform are being incorporated into the shoe design in the front of the shoe, so that it makes it easier to manage the thin and very high stiletto heels at the back. Designers giving artistic expression to stiletto heel shoes include Balenciaga, Chado Ralph Rucci, Yves Saint Laurent and DSquared2.
Platforms retain their place - Ladies who find it hard to strut in stilettos will be relieved to know that platforms have retained their position as part of the 2009 summer shoe collection. What’s more, designers have displayed platform heel shoes that have a classic appeal and are far from boring. Colorful platform pump shoes adorned with fringes are expected to be hugely popular this coming season.
Exotic feature heels – The most aesthetic part of 2009 spring / summer shoe trends is the arrival of feature heels. Shoes with feature heels are fast becoming popular amongst celebrities. Basically, the heel is not merely a structural support but rather it becomes the most aesthetic and graceful part of the shoe. Some very delicate feature heel shoes have been designed by Christian Dior, Marc Jacobs, Alexander McQueen and Bottega Venetta. According to stylists, it is wise to invest in shoes with feature heels as they are likely to retain their artistic worth for long.
Thick chunky heels and tapered heels:-Shoes with thick chunky high heels, wedge heels and tapered heels are also very much a popular choice for
spring/summer 2009. Tapered heels start thick at the top and taper down, often with a curve, into a stiletto-esque point at the bottom. Designers promoting these heels include Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Marni, and Chanel.
TOE SHAPES
Peep toe shoes - Open toe or peep toe shoes will be a hot look this summer. Open toed shoes are more popular in pumps and sling back shoes and according to many stylists, peep toe shoes look very seductive as they provide a glimpse of your toe cleavage. Compliment your high heel open toe shoes with a gorgeous skirt or summer dress and really show of those legs of yours.
Pointed toe s
hoes - Razor sharp pointed toe or peeked toe shoes are also back again in trends. Pointed toe shoes look particularly seductive in pumps and ankle strap sandals. High fashion shoe designers such as Manolo Blahnik,Balenciaga, Chado Ralph Rucci etc displayed razor sharp pointed shoes with spindly stiletto heels on runways recently. A-list celebs like Victoria Beckham and Sara Jessica Parker have already embraced the style.
Gladiator Sandals – Both gladiator heels and gladiator sandals are very much in fashion for summer 2009. It is predicted that the heavily strapped and heeled versions of the sandals will be hit amongst girls. For maximum impact, opt for gladiator shoes in knee-high or mid-calf styles in flats or heels and team them with simple outfits like spring shorts or short skirts.
Fringed shoes - The folk inspired fringed shoes that gained entry last winter will still command a strong place in the shoe fashion world. High heel fringe ankle boots with peep toes will be a particularly enticing look this season. Fashionistas recommend a short dress with fringe booties for a seductive bohemian look. Some of the high profile fashion designers who seem to be very much in love with fringes include Gucci, Balmain, and Anna Sui.
Ankle strap shoes - Ankle strap shoes are expected to be a huge hit and in all probability a must have shoe this season. For special occasions opt for ankle strap shoes with sky-high stiletto heels and pointed toes. Some designers are
also going for triple ankle strap 
shoes embellished with buckles. Spikes, chains and studs are further being utilized to enhance the glamour quotient of the shoe. Designers fond of ankle strap shoes include Gucci, Oscar De La Renta and Pucci.
Caged Boots - Caged boots are rated as the most sensational fetish shoes in the current season. Super sexy fashion icons such as Rihanna and Beyoncè have already adorned their feet with a pair of YSL’s metal caged booties. Beyoncè was recently also noticed wearing colorful and very innovative caged boots by Balenciaga.

Making Sense of the Eccentrically Innovative Styles of Lady GaGa
Not only does Lady GaGa amaze audiences every time she sings, but she also makes sure that she shocks and entertains with her outlandish style statements. From fashionistas to fashion police, nobody can stop going GaGa when it comes to discussing the multi-talented burlesque New Yorker, who out of interest’s sakes’ original name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta.
Famous for her pant-less attire, Lady GaGa more than compensates for her skimpy clothing with oversized bags, futuristic sunglasses, big false lashes, thick eyeliner and prominently noticeable shoes. Apart from the tall stilettos, Lady Gaga has been known to make up for her diminutive 5'1 figure with large headwear, sometimes even in the form of an oversized bow made out of her own hair.
Her outrageous style:
Lady GaGa is a bona fide style chameleon. The singer-lyricist-musician doesn't seem to favour one fashion trend for too long and attempts to look bolder and more outrageous with every new fashion style she experiments with. From the singer’s own mouth (which she prefer to paint in Geisha-girl style lipstick to form a peculiar pout these days) she is "very in to fashion" and that it is "everything". Though Lady GaGa once said she chose music over a man, it appears she keeps fashion over music. While her music albums have remained on the top of the charts for weeks, her outrageous style statements are discussed for months.
Going GaGa over her love for fashion, Lady GaGa said, “When I'm writing music, I'm thinking about the clothes I want to wear on stage. It's all about everything altogether — performance art, pop performance art, fashion. For me, it's everything coming together and being a real story that will bring back the super-fan. I want to bring that back. I want the imagery to be so strong that fans will want to eat and taste and lick every part of us.”
Her obsession for shoes:
Commenting on her fetish shoes, an observer once said, Lady GaGa may forget her pants but not her pumps! The Just Dance singer has made a lot of provocative style statements with the kind of shoes she wears. Preparing to release her third single Paparazzi, Lady GaGa caught a lot of media attention in London recently by teaming black PVC panties and a bra with a pair of cream thigh-high lace up PVC boots.
The 'Poker Face' singer, whose shoes are as much talked about as her songs, favours the ultra stylish Jimmy Choo shoes, but for performances, she opts for teetering stripper heels she buys at, well, “specialty” stores around 42nd Street. This is a practical matter, she notes. “They’re made to be more comfortable, so that I can dance onstage but still have the height.”
Apart from risqué thigh high shoes (the higher and the more outrageous the better), Lady GaGa is also often spotted in very high heel stiletto heel shoes, peep toe booties, PVC knee length boots, rubber shoes, lace up sandals, patent court shoes and wedge sandals. Most of her shoes are shiny and as colourful as her outfits. The heels of the shoes are always high to cover up for the short stature of The Fame singer.
Her outlandish hair styles:
Lady GaGa, who is said to have imbibed her love for fashion from her mother, who was "always very well kept and beautiful" has her own creative production team called "Haus of GaGa" which she handles personally. They create some of her fashion, props on stage and also her much talked about hair. The provocative singer’s hair styles are definitely hard to miss and at times are the cynosure of her complete ensemble even is she is wearing skimpy hot pants.
Her signature dyed-blonde hair with straight-cut bangs does most of the talking for her. The obsessively opposed to the typical singer sports a trademark large bow hair style made of her own hair. Apart from rendering her a larger than life figure, the high bows add to her short height. Once Lady GaGa chose to attract publicity by wearing a foot high cone head hair style made of plaits. Absurd, you may call, but that’s Lady GaGa the fearlessly stylish 23 year old who can pull off just about anything.
The originally brunette fashion icon managed to get a completely new hair style - going from a short peroxide bob to long pink highlighted extensions, on a 10 hour flight to London from Los Angeles. Recently, however, it’s been noticed, Lady GaGa is giving her locks a rest and flaunting her new fashion fetish for hats.
Controversy on Christina Aguilera stealing Lady GaGa’s style:
Back in 2008, comparisons were made between the fashion sense of GaGa and American singer-songwriter Christina Aguilera, noting similarities in their styling, hair and make-up. Christina insisted she had never heard of GaGa saying, 'I'm not quite sure who this person is, to be honest, I don't know if it is a man or a woman.” Afterward GaGa released a statement where she welcomed the comparisons because the media attention had provided useful publicity, “a lot of people in America didn't know who I was until that whole thing happened”, she said. However, Lady GaGa later added that she doesn’t just want to be remembered for the "Christina Aguilera scandal" and that "nobody can copy me, because I can’t be copied", the eccentrically innovative singer added.

Katy Perry - Meet the fashion-freak songstress
Her breakthrough single "I Kissed a Girl" established Katy Perry in the music world. However, her fashion caught the attention of designers even before she released the song that became a world-wide hit. Born as Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson in California US, Katy Perry (as she likes to be called) is distinguished for wearing unconventional style of dresses, often combining colours and vintage fashion, as well as associating outfits with fruits.
The young pop star has generated as much controversy with her songs, particularly "Ur So Gay" and "I Kissed a Girl", as much as she did with her costumes, some as weird as ice-cream cones and carousels. What’s remarkable is that Katy pulls off the craziest of outfits flawlessly and they look fabulous on her. An established singer-songwriter and musician, Katy can be as effortless in facing millions of her fan over a guitar as she is posing as a pin-up girl in flowery outfits teamed with sexy high heel stilettos, her dark tresses styled in soft Dita von Teese curls to give her a timeless seductive look.
Katy’s famous vintage style
Katy Perry is very stylish but she is always in the eyes of the fashion police. According to the songstress herself, she “doesn’t mind being a regular on the worst dressed lists”. As long as she is experimenting she is “totally OK with ending up in the ‘worst dressed.’ It’s happened many, many times, but I’m proud of those outfits,” Katy claims.
The singer describes her unconventional fashion style as “a bit of a concoction of different things". Though she also claims, “I have my own look, which I call ‘Lolita meets old Hollywood Glam.’”. She pompously names actress and burlesque performer Dita Von Teese and Cyndi Lauper as her icons. “I’m a big fan of Dita Von Teese, because she does it all herself. That is her job: to look fabulous going to the grocery store.”
Her stylist Johnny Wujek, who’s worked with her for album and magazine covers, red carpets, and music videos, describes her style as “very colorful and vintage”. She is not afraid to make a statement. If there is something that Wujek thinks would be too much; Katy would be like, "Amazing idea!" The celebrity stylist during an interview stated, “I think it's cool that Katy's so free-spirited and just kind of loves fashion as an art form.”
“A nice dose of sexiness” makes a person look stylish according to Perry and says she likes to wear dresses that are fun, colourful and happy. According to some fashionistas, the most enchanting facet of Katy’s fashion sense is that she can look ravishingly sexy and innocent at the same time. While many pop stars try hard but miserably fail to achieve this look, but with Perry, you get the sense that it's no act.
Her fruit fixation:
A peculiar aspect of Perry’s style is her noticeable fixation for fruit accessories. “It started with my obsession of the 1940s and cherry charm bracelets and strawberry and cherry pattern baskets on women's dresses," explains the star who “loves anything fruit”. You can often notice her eclectic get-up complimented with fruit-shaped accessories such as strawberry barrettes, watermelon earrings or sequined bananas. For her performance at the Grammy’s, Katy chose a bedazzled, fruit-encrusted mini-dress complete with watermelon-shaped bra cups. Stylists often comment that fruits accessories have become a staple of Katy’s dressing.
Her affinity for shoes:
Fashionistas who have watched Perry’s fashion sense closely claim that the pop sensation loves clothes, shoes and accessories possibly even more than recording a number one single. If you observe her pictures, you can easily notice that Katy is head over heels about high heel shoes. Perry’s selection of shoes is often appreciated by the accessories watchers. The colour, style and heels of her shoes gel naturally with her costume and other accessories. If you just take a look at the choice of her shoes, you can observe just how sexy the right pair of shoes can look.
According to experts, Katy’s preference of shoes displays the influence of old school pop-rockers such as Cindy Lauper and Pat Banatar. The ‘Ur So Gay’ singer’s immaculate taste in shoes shows that Perry is well aware of the fact that the key to looking great is on paying attention to all the details.
Katy’s fondness for a fabulous pair of stiletto shoes is famous. Her sporty colourful high heel stilettos always seem to do justice to her funky and often jaw-drooping outfits. Pumps, court shoes, ankle strap sandals and t-bar shoes appear to be her favourite style provided they are fitted with spindly stiletto heels. Perry can often be seen sporting shoes by Christian Louboutin and Sonia Rykiel. Her favourite shoe designers though are Nicholas Kirkwood and Steve Madden. Katy often adorns her fancy feet with their vibrant and exotic creations.
