Since we are on the verge of a new year, I thought it would be fitting for this week’s edition of ‘This Week in Shoes’ to be a time for 2007 reflection and have us look forward to what type of shoes will be offered in 2008.

Over at Red Carpet Fashion Awards, the stylishly and prolific Fashion Critic has been summarizing some of the best and worse looks for 2007. Her picks for Shoe of the Year and Shoe Designer of the Year were on the money and we were honored to have the opportunity to share our thoughts on her site.

Here’s are some shoes to look forward to in 2008:

  • Shoetube.tv launches in February of 2008. The site has been enticing me with the following description “Get ready for the most exciting thing to happen to shoes since Carrie found those coveted Manolo Blahniks in the closet at Vogue. Shoetube.tv will be the destination on the web where women will gather to share their passion for shoes.” I can’t wait to see what content-rich shoe multimedia will be shown!
  • The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Dr James Stoxen and Converse are working on a naked shoe that gives your feet room to flex.
  • Move over Stella! The talented Natalie Portman is releasing her own line of vegan shoes at TeCasan.  The Natalie Portman Collection will be available for preorder starting January 15th and will have a release date of February 2008.
