I want that! Jimmy Choo gladiators

Filed under: Accessories, Get the Look



Jimmy Choo makes a fierce shoe – fact. Combine that with the gladiator trend and you've got one sexy, and very strappy shoe. We are totally smitten for the Choo's spotted on lovely ladies like Emmanuelle Chriqui, Nicole Richie, and Lucy Liu lately. They really ramp up an LBD or ground a flirty dress while still bringing an avant-garde factor into the mix.

Judging by the majority, it seems like the best way to pair these is with black, white, or metallic. Or you can go out on a limb and pair these masculine sandals with a feminine frock like Lucy. No more how you do it, if your wearing Choo, you're probably going to look pretty hot!

Now here's one to watch. Adorable actress Emma Stone, who is making rounds promoting her new flick, The Rocker, combines simple yet flashy pieces into incredible look after incredible look. Her formula seems to be a streamlined yet eye popping dress, the perfect belt , and killer heels to finish it off.

Here, at TRL, she channels a glamorous rock n' roller in her Mike & Chris shoulderless dress which was complimented by a sparkling, waist cinching belt and Jimmy Choo gladiator heels. With hair so brilliant, who needs accessories anyway?

Why aren't you wearing this? Kenneth Cole Reaction Nite Off Sandal

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Celebrities with Style, Must Haves


The sandal is in the process of a style evolution. It began with the gladiator sandal -- when we first saw it a season or two (or three?) ago, it really seemed hard to wear. It was clunky and not terribly feminine, but now, of course, we love it. And so it's time to move on to the next stage.

More and more celebrities are sporting sexy sandals with a lot more material across the front than we were previously used to. Case in point: The Christian Dior Extreme Cutout Sandal, which was Carrie Bradshaw's shoe of choice in the SATC movie (and costs, depending on the material, $750 to $1000 or more).

Hot celebrity trend: White Grecian dresses

Filed under: Celebrities with Style


You know what they say, two's a trend -- or is it three? Oh well, does it really matter with a look this hot? We've been seeing a lot of white for this summer, which is normal for the season. But, the fab way to wear the color of angels seems to be in Grecian inspired dresses.

Why aren't you wearing this? Gold Cuff Bracelet

Filed under: Accessories


So, perhaps gladiator sandals aren't quite your style -- that doesn't mean you have to totally give up on the gladiator chic trend this year. There are lots of ways to rock the gladiator look -- loin cloths, breast plates, helmets -- but you probably wouldn't want to wear any of those, either, would you?

Not just for Russell Crowe: Gladiator sandals are hot for 2008

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes

Back in 2000 or so, when I watched Gladiator for the first time, I remember it spurred a number of thoughts. Things like, "Can one person really make a difference like that?" and "Russell Crowe really shouldn't wear a shirt. Ever."

But, I'm quite sure I didn't contemplate how to bring the fashion into my own life.

Whether I planned it or not, the gladiator sandal is making a big appearance this spring. According to Style Bakery (don't you love that name? Like they're baking up yummy, fresh styles just for me!), the gladiator sandal is poised to be an "it" shoe this season.

You can pair it with casual looks, like tie-dye or denim, or get funky by pairing them with more formal looks. Of course, you could always wear a toga ...
