Dollsome Shoes for Valentine’s Day

ELLE has some excellent suggestions for  some tasty treats of the sexy shoe variety just in time for Valentine’s Day.  My favorites (for the pure fantasy, of course) are these Viktor & Rolf lace boots, which are a variant on the ones we saw in the Spring 08 ready-to-wear runway show in Paris last October.  If you’d like these, check out select Bloomingdale’s stores.  But be ready to shell out $950 for em.

Are you digging the peep-toe oxford look that’s showing up everywhere?  Then work it into your Valentine’s wardrobe with these pretty satin Diego Dolcini pumps ($820 at Jeffrey in NYC and Atlanta).

For a classic ladylike Louboutin, you can’t go wrong with this pretty platform with gathered crepe that’s just like that pretty nightie you were thinking about buying to treat yourself (and quite possibly your “someone special”).  This one’s $875 at Neiman Marcus.

Need something in the more affordable range?  Want something that’s a little more Vargas girl “fun ‘n flirty” than “sexy diva”?  Then try these fun red Kaylie platforms from Zinc (only $73 at Zappos).

And if you’re after a bit of a bondage edge (rrrrrowr) with a girly twist, you could go for these pink lace and buckle numbers from Be&D, which’ll set you back $575 at Shooz in Denver.

 Or, of course, you could bypass all of that and take a shot at winning the Glory Chen Yan pump that’s the prize of our current giveaway.  You’ve only got a day left to enter your name, and then this pretty in pink pump with the heart-shaped applique could be yours in honor of St. Valentine and loved ones everywhere.
