One of the many reasons why I not only love Sex and the City, the series, but the latest film as well, is the wide variety of fashion styles constantly portrayed. The fashionista women of Sex and the City (Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte) are easy to connect and related to because, like me and countless other women, they choose to try out many styles. Because life situations are quite varied, it would only make sense to wear shoes to go along with wherever, and whatever, you may be doing.
 Sex and the City Film Snapshot
In the latest Sex and the City film, the phenomenal four find themselves at one point traveling through the desert in the Middle East. Although in this particular snapshot they are walking barefoot, it is easy to assume they have some appropriate footwear packed, and ready to wear when they arrive at their destination. I can easily imagine that one of their shoe choices looks like the Lucky Brand Ali Casual Flat Shoe. This Lucky Brand shoe is a beautiful woven slip on, with a comfortable leather upper, as well as a lightly padded insole for superior comfort that’s still light and airy for hot weather. The exotic design of the Lucky Brand Ali Casual Flat Shoe would fit perfectly with the ensemble choices and culture the Sex and the City ladies find themselves in. You can also own a pair of these fabulous Lucky Brand shoes too, as they are offered at DNA Footwear! Take a look, you’ll love them!

I have no problem admitting that I’m a Sex and the City addict. Not only did I watch every episode religiously when it aired on HBO, but I now own every season on dvd, books about Sex and the City, as well as the first feature film. When I found out there was going to be a second feature film awhile back, I practically screeched with joy.
One of the reasons why so many women (including myself) adore this series, other than the interesting characters, is the entertainment, awe, and education we get from the amazing fashion demonstrated by the leading ladies of Sex and the City. First and foremost, who hasn’t learned about the greatness of shoes from Sarah Jessica Parker’s character, Carrie Bradshaw? She is the epitome of a stylish, fashion-forward woman, and her trademark is her love of shoes. (Does anyone else remember the episode when she realized she had over 400 pairs of shoes?!)
As a tribute to the latest Sex and the City release, I will be posting various pictures of the lovely ladies with some of their inspiring shoe choices, as well as links where you could purchase them yourself! Enjoy!
 Sex and the City Poster with Gold Sparkly Shoes
A sparkly, gorgeous, and affordable pair of gold shoes, like those that Carrie is wearing in this Sex and the City poster, is the Ladybug High Heel Sequined Shoe by Chinese Laundry. This fabulous Chinese Laundry heel has the super trendy peep toe look, and will make you feel like a princess walking around in gold shimmer. The Ladybug High Heel Sequined Shoe by Chinese Laundry is also on sale at DNA Footwear, so it’s easy and won’t break the bank to be as glamorous as Carrie Bradshaw!

Wedges have made a comeback in a big way. Â This year, fashionistas are wearing wedges with a hippie-chic vibe: the current trend is for the wedge part of the shoe to be made from a natural material, like cork, raffia, or wood. Â These natural shades and textured give this modern trend a timeless twist. Â Wedges pair well with other Summer 2010 trends: ruffled tops, floral prints, and floaty fabrics.

Lately, celebs everywhere have been spotted sporting this easy-to-wear style. Â Check out Kristen Cavallari in her adorable golfing attire: a sweet, ruffled dress with a shot hemline that’s sexy, but a color and feminine style that’s classic, paired with this season’s hottest wedge sandals. Â Kristen is wearing the Ugg “Amelie” Wedges, which are oh-so-stylish, but also comfortable, thanks to Ugg’s signature lambskin, which they’ve stashed on the sole of these otherwise sexy and summery sandals. Â Kristen’s sporting the off-white version, but I actually think the brown “Amelie”s are more on-trend because of their natural color.

The hottest color right now? Â Sexy, barely-there nude shades. Â Neutral has made a comeback in a big way for Spring 2010. Â Bags, party dresses, and even jewelry in this sexy shade are showing up everywhere this season. Â But the best way to be a part of this trend is to go faux-barefoot with nude boots, wedges, flats and sandals that elongate the leg and provide a hint of subtle sexuality.
Nude shoes are a great way to transition jeans from winter to spring or bring a fresh twist to last year’s floral sundress. Â They can also modernize dramatic solids, like a sexy red dress or a chic black suit. Â Copy celebs and choose a shade closest to your own skin tone for the most flattering effect.

Super celebrities like the beautiful Kim Kardashian and her sister Kourtney Kardashian don’t seem to get very far without much media attention. Sometimes I wonder, on a typical day, how many pictures the paparazzi take of such celebrities as the Kardashians…20? 50? 100? Goodness knows they must have a great deal of patience and generosity, knowing that fans appreciate any insight into their fabulous lives they can get their hands on.
That being said, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian have both been spotted by a photographer from OK Magazine recently wearing Sam Edelman sandals while doing their day-to-day errands. Sam Edelman shoes are famous for their innovative, trendy designs that fans and critics alike love every season. Now that spring (and almost summer) are here, Sam Edelman sandals are hotter than ever.

As always, the famous Sam Edelman signature is prominently displayed on the Gigi Casual Flat Sandal sole. This chic, popular, no-fuss design make this a great choice sandal for almost anything you can think of. Right now the Sam Edelman Gigi Casual Flat Sandal is being sold at DNA Footwear, along with dozens of other super cool Sam Edelman sandals, so check it out!

We all know how talented Britney Spears is with her music and singing career. Something I did not know about Britney Spears is her interesting shopping habits. According to OK Magazine, Britney changed looks completely while strolling around in Beverly Hills. I can understand changing at home for more appropriate event attire (and have done so on numerous occasions); changing a look while out and about by one’s self is definitely unusual. Who ever said Britney Spears was normal though?
 Ok Magazine Features Britney Spears Wearing Ugg Boots
Aside from her interesting changing/shopping habits, I noticed in OK Magazine Britney Spears’ choice of shoes displayed. The original shoes she had decided to wear while out were a pair of Ugg boots, specifically the Bailey Button Casual Boot. Obviously, Ugg boots aren’t just a super popular shoe choice with much of the typical public…big celebrities such as Britney Spears loves them too. When you look at all of their fabulous assets, it’s easy to see why. The Ugg Bailey Button Casual Boot is calf height, and made with real twin-faced Grade A sheepskin with suede heel guards. The liner as well is made from this super comfortable sheepskin, and this particular design includes a wooden Ugg logo button and elastic closure, making it fun and easy to wear this boot in a variety of styles. It’s no wonder Britney Spears wanted to wear the Ugg Bailey Button Casual Boot around town!

In any fashionable woman’s closet, there should be two essential items, which In Style Magazine has smartly recognized. The first, the cargo pant, is not only supremely comfortable, but “in” as far as fashion mongers are concerned. Especially now that it’s spring, and fast approaching summer, cargo pants are also lightweight, so you don’t have to worry about sweating up a storm when you’re out and about trying to focus on having a good time.
The second must-have item for the trendy young woman is the classy heel shoe. For this heel to accomplish its purpose like the cargo pant, it must be classy and simplistic in style. A second similarity is that comfort is essential, which is difficult to pull off. However, when one finds such a gem of a shoe, this heel can definitely be a lifesaver for just about any social occasion you can think of.
As seen from In Style Magazine, the heel that wins hands down as being not only gorgeous, simple, and elegant, but comfortable on top of that, is the Z-Project High Heel Pump by L.A.M.B. The Z-Project High Heel Pump, because it’s made by the highly respected and famous L.A.M.B. line, is guaranteed quality and craftsmanship. The layered platform makes you feel like you’re not even wearing a high heel. Made with satin and lined with a leather, this heel can also dress up even cargo pants to retain your flirty, feminine side.

Right now you can also buy a pair of these fabulous, must-have L.A.M.BÂ Z-Project High Heel Pumps from DNA Footwear at a discounted price too! Check it out!

Now that we’re well into spring, it’s high time that we start recognizing all of the vibrant colors that we now find ourselves surrounded by! Spring equates the celebration of life, and all of the lovely details that brighten the day. One of the easiest and funnest ways of doing this is through our style choices. People Magazine’s Style Watch has noticed how much beauty the world of fashion holds, and has kindly put together an excellent selection of bright accessories that will also brighten anyone’s day when they use them.
 People Magazine's Style Watch With Colorful Sandals
One of my favorite items I discovered in People Magazine’s Style Watch page on vibrant global shoes perfect for spring and summer is the Suzukii Low Wedge Sandal by Chinese Laundry.  These colorful sandals are incredibly fun and fresh for this season. I just love the well placed tassel amidst the sunny colors on the front. The reptile embossing adds further to the sexy, fashionable appeal so popular right now. In addition, the shoe contains a padding on top of a slight wedge, as well as a zip back heel, making these sandals comfortable and easy to wear.
 Brown Multi-Color Suzukii Low Wedge Sandal
DNA Footwear not only offers the brown multi-color Chinese Laundry Suzukii Low Wedge Sandal pictured in People Magazine’s Style Watch at a lower price than listed, but has two additional color choices in that style as well!

Beyoncé is one of those people who just seems to possess every sought after quality imaginable: she’s beautiful, she can act, she can sing, and she has tons of style. To top it all off, she shared with People Magazine’s Style Watch that apparently she can also walk on cobblestones wearing high heels!! Is it fair for one person alone to possess this many talents??
 Beyoncé and High Heels in People's Style Watch
If I had Beyoncé’s high heel talent, I would wear gorgeous heels as often as she does. One of the heels pictured with her in People Magazine is a Beata High Heel Sandal by Bebe. This sexy high heel sandal has a snakeskin embossed leather top, flirty and convenient lace-up ties, and sparkly studs. I can’t imagine a more flirty high heel sandal!
Also pictured with Beyoncé is the very colorful Zed High Heel Platform Sandal by L.A.M.B. These edgy heels definitely stand apart from the crowd with their unique design and combination of colors. Made of leather with an adjustable ankle closure, these remarkable high heel sandals are also surprisingly comfortable and easy to wear. Right now at DNA Footwear, the typically expensive Zed High Heel Platform Sandal is also on sale, so there’s no better excuse to be as totally cool as Beyoncé!
