I love discovering new shoe brands, and so I squealed with glee (well, in my mind, at least) when I stumbled upon Jenny Ocholla Ayayo’s shoes. Born of a Swedish mother and a Kenyan father, Ms. Ayayo is the Swedish Elle’s Best Fashion Accessory Designer award in 2004.

Her shoes are about two things: color and texture. They unfold into voluptuous curves with vibrant spurts of color; their sculpted sensuality almost made my heart skip a beat. The red heels that start the gallery down here are supposedly made of silver salmon skin; and what can I say about the lines on those booties, I nearly want to lick them!

(FYI, the boots are $600, and you can order at sales@ayayoayayo.com).
