I am not much of a celebrity watcher. But, as might be expected, I am a shoe-watcher. So, despite my general cluelessness on who’s who these days in Hollywood, I love looking at the fashion photos of red-carpet events like yesterday’s AMA’s.
By the way, it drives me nuts that you can get fashion coverage of what folks wore, but they almost never mention the shoes as a part of this!!!
Am I the only person driven bonkers by this oversight?
Now I am left trying to wrack my brain in an attempt to remember who makes which shoe, etc. It’s enough to give a girl a migraine.
So, a quick rundown of some of the shoes seen on the AMA red carpet along with who makes them…in cases where my memory is actually serving me today. (Celeb photos are c/o Huffington Post & Popsugar)
Kristen Bell in Christian Louboutin:
Christian Louboutin ‘Archidisco’ $995
Colbie Caillat in what looks an awfully lot like a non-platform version of Louboutin’s ‘Ambro’ lace pump:
Christian Louboutin ‘Ambro’ $825
(A similar budget style is available here.)
Alicia Keys…I should know this shoe & it’s driving me nuts. Somebody help me since my memory has completely betrayed me on these brilliant blue sandals:
Rihanna, sporting the Marchessa cut-out dress we saw recently. Love it or hate it, these white ankle-strap pums paired beautifully with this dress. (No, I haven’t figured out the maker of these shoes yet, either.)
Leona Lewis in chain-bedecked booties.
While her boots are probably not the exact ones I am showing here, these are the closest I could find on at the moment to a match for her booties:
Bakers Shoes ‘Julee’ (Another similar style is ‘Flash’ by Dolce Vita)
And I’ll end this with another shoe for whom I can’t find the maker, but have found a few strappy-alternatives that I would be just as happy to wear.
Carrie Underwood:
If you like these uber-strappy sandals, maybe one of these would also tempt you:
Guiseppe Zanotti Strappy Leather Sandal
Edited to add: Found the Jimmy Choos at Bluefly!!!!
Jimmy Choo ‘Verity’ $876 $1095

Those one's are hurting my brain too. They make me think Jimmy Choo or Manolo Blahnik, but without finding an original style picture, I'm just not sure. It feels familiar.

I am dying to know what the name of the Sergio Rossi sandals Alicia Keys is wearing is. Internet searches have left me nothing. Please help!!

Okay, so it's not just me. Also, even at current OMG 1k+ prices, an ordinary gal may be able to scrimp and buy 1 designer shoe every year or two.. Tell us the $%&$ designer so we don't have to spend half an afternoon hunting it down…or more if it's last season or *gasp* vintage.
I'm just saying!!!

BTW, it says Carrie Underwoods are Jimmy Choo, which was one of my top guesses,but I still can't find anyone selling the style at the moment.

Thank you. It's about time…google was worthless getting me good links.
I've noticed that the TV Guide channel people will ask about shoes…but inevitably they cut away to another person or commercial just when I'm interested in a specific pair.

You should follow thelookbook (dot) onsugar (dot) com they have a completely rundown of what they wore including the shoes. I'm sure they said Carrie Underwood wore Jimmy Choos. The also list the stylist who styled them. Its a really good blog to reference. Hope that helps.
