Ask the ShoeBlogger: Who is the designer of Jennifer Lopez’s Blue Soled Shoes?
Posted on September 13th, 2008 by Shomore under Celebrity Shoe Style, Fall 2008 Shoes, Fashion WeekA fan writes:
What shoes are Jennifer Lopez wearing to the Diane Von Furstenberg Spring 2009 show (left)? It seems like they are from the same designer as the platform ankle boots worn to the Marc Jacobs fashion show (right). I love the blue soles on both these shoes!
Answer: You have a good eye! The turquoise soled shoes are by Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) . Both the ankle boots and the Tribute Two platform pumps are from the Fall 2008 collection (they appeared on the fall 2008 ready to wear runway in a yellow lining though). The shoes feature a whooping 5.5 inch heel and a 1.5 inch hidden platform. Our new ‘it’ shoe lust can be purchased directly from YSL boutiques.
If you like the style and don’t need to have the blue sole, the YSL Tribute Two platform pumps are available in a dark green sole at Saks for $795. My prediction is that this will sell out fast.

[...] lettrici ci hanno giustamente fatto notare che le scarpe dalla suola blu sono, in realtà, le Tribute Two di YSL (foto in alto), e non delle Louboutin Limited Edition. Quindi niente scoop. La foto rimane [...]

[...] Edelstein from ‘House’ wore the same YSL Tribute Two platform pumps which Jennifer Lopez wore to fashion week. Personally, I like the shoes on J Lo better. Yes, I am role stereotyping, but I have a hard time [...]

How can I buy those shoes? I have visited almost every website I know and still cannot find the ones with the blue sole. I am completely obssessed with the shoes but haven’t been able to find them. Can anyone direct me to a website or email address? Thank you, I’d appreciate it.

I already ordered my pair of YSL Tribute Platform Pump (Blue Sole) , like JLo is wearing in the picture. I should have them by Monday. Those are gorgeous and I can’t wait to wear them.

[...] Most recently Lindsay has been spotted at FEARnet’s 2nd anniversary party in New York City. The 22-year old Cirque Lodge rehab graduate was dressed in a black see-through top, black tights, and a black front-zip mini skirt with black patent leather ankle boots with blue soles and a blue lining. The boots are from Yves Saint Laurent Fall 08 collection and have also been seen adorning Jennifer Lopez’s feet. [...]

Very sexy shoes!

You gotta admit that if it was not for the brand imprinted inside and the blue sole, this is just an ugly stripper shoe. Nothing pretty about it. It’s not unique in anyway since it’s copying from Louboutin’s red-sole idea…..and surely not worth the price tag.

Hi,
Do you know the designer of the shoes on Ashley Tisdale in the recent MTV Movie Award show?
June 1st, 2009 at 3:36 pm
Mariella -
Ashley Tisdale wore strappy wedges by Paul and Joe sister to the MTV 2009 Movie Awards. I’ve posted a better look at the shoes worn by Ashley and other celebs on this blog post: http://www.shoeblog.com/blog/mtv-movie-awards-2009-red-carpet-shoes/
Hope that helps!

I love these ankle boots - stunning! !! - Given that I don’t have the bank account of J Lo I bought designer ‘blue rubber shoe soles’ for designer shoes off EBAY and had my shoe make resole my entire ankle boot in blue! The company selling these has red, grey, cream and black if you want to change the colour of your sole - just look them up on EBAY..
