Christian Louboutin turquoise spikey loafers
Since Anna Dello Russo X H&M got released, I started loving the color turquoise. Its bright vibe attracted me a lot. Since then, I also started looking for ensembles whose dominant color is turquoise and I found this!
Who would not love these fierce and chic loafers?! Loving all those spikes! So atypical and so Louboutins! And as I’ve said, its color is now one of my faves. It would definitely high light your outfit albeit at your simplest. I love its wooden soles too! Classic!

Let’s move with your feet’s friend! Shoes! Here are my faves from London Fashion Week for Spring 2013!

Cherry Red Dr. Martens
I believe everyone knows how much I love the color red right?! On shoes definitely! Here’s what I’ll be getting soon!
Leather boots are so much in trend today and one of the most famous brand right now is Dr. Martens. Typically, mostly chooses black for its versatilty but bright hued ones or those with rare look adds a challenge on putting up your daily look and boosts up your creativity. It lets you go for a very atypical style that possibly help you stand out. That’s why I choose this cherry red over the black one. The leather patent finish is love! The brightness is indeed bloody fierce and I just love it! Statement shoes it is! Perfect for shorts or acid wash pants! And you’ll be mine soon!

Fake Louboutins.
A large number of fake Louboutins were seized that is destined to be sold online.
A total of 20, 457 fake Louboutins with its red sole trademark were said to cost around $18 million dollars.
Here’s a counterfeited Louboutins all made from China.
Well its not only Louboutin who faces such counterfeiting, recently, Hermes and Burberry were rewarded by 63 million pounds for carrying the brand’s names illegally.
After this huge counterfeiting, Louboutin is also facing a lawsuit against YSL and Zara for using his signature red sole on their shoes that cause confusion among the consumers.
I hope counterfeiting thing will be all over soon. Its really saddening to know that people do this for money which is not I believe the main goal of a fashion house, it is to empower people through uniqueness and style. This would also kill the industry will all love.

Dr. Martens X Liberty
This collaboration brings together two beloved British institutions. Both brands stand for quality and craft but at the heart of this collaboration is an engaging discord. Liberty London brings to mind nature, beauty and a refined intricacy, at odds with the tough and rebellious ethos of Dr. Martens.
However, this partnership with Dr. Martens is entirely natural - hence the Wild Nature theme that will run through the collaboration. Youth culture first started hand-painting floral patterns on their boots in the early 1980’s, before the idea even became an official DM’s style.
The blending of these two brand’s styles can be seen on the traditional 8-hole and 3-hole Dr. Martens boots and shoes as well as the recently introduced Kensington and desert boot styles, offering a lightweight option for the warmer months.
The collection will be exclusively available in an area curated by Dr. Martens at Liberty of London’s iconic Regent Street store from 1st May 2012. From June 1st, it will also be available here on drmartens.com and from Dr. Martens own retail stores. (via http://www.dmusastore.com/t-liberty.aspx)
