Spring is here and of course you want to know what styles of shoes are most fashionable in the new season.
As usual some trends from the previous season stay with us for another couple of months and you can wear them with dignity. And there are a few new ones that will complement our spring wardrobe.
Platform sandals
If you are a real fashionista this trend just needs to be in your wardrobe as almost every designer paid attention to it and created truly nice pieces for us to wear. They are perfect for many reasons. First, they are beautiful. They come in bright hues and original designs, from cage look to the one providing lots of coverage. Second, they are more comfortable to wear than ordinary heels. And third, they are super-glamorous and some celebrities have already been spotted wearing those.
Mary Janes
These shoes are ideal for office and the girls who simply love elegant footwear. The shoes come in various colors and can be very strict or exremely fresh and colorful. What you choose depends on you! Peep-toe Mary Janes have returned too!
Sky-high Heels
Despite all the arguments this type of shoes will always exist as there are plenty of women who are ready to suffer bunions and feet deformations to look stylish like Posh. Many brands presented high stilettos in their ranges, from classic Burberry to rock-chic DSquared2.

We all seek for inspirations in our work but what kind of one designers need to create those masterpieces we admire so much?
Dsquared designers, Dean and Dan Caten, told they got their inspiration to become couturiers from their “hot older brother”, to be precise, from his attractive girlfriends.
The designer twins grew up with seven brothers and sisters and as it turned out their sibling’s pretty girlfriends sparked their interest in the fashion industry.
Dan commented:
We had a hot older brother. Like, seriously hot. He had so many hot girlfriends. Maybe it’s a Canadian thing, but everybody has to take their shoes off before they go indoors and we’re sitting on the landing when one of his girlfriends takes her shoes off in the hall. No lie, they were salt-stained suede wedges with little stars and crescent moons. Like, totally Stevie Nicks. And we would literally fight over who could put them on first.”
Dean and Dan are very famous now and they make costumes for stars like Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Madonna and Lenny Kravitz. But actually they started from styling family members, at the age of just 10.
Dan told Britain’s Grazia magazine:
Our sisters would come home and we would have customised their entire wardrobe. There was always a sister going to prom or on a date and we’d style them. I don’t think we even thought that fashion could be a job back then. And you have our dad in the background saying, ‘That’s not a real job!’ So we thought we might be dancers, because we were always dancing to Rod Stewart. Until we saw our dad’s station wagon pull up. Then the stereo went off and the heels came off.”
Thanks God, they didn’t become dancers, otherwise the world would be deprived of lots of wonderful pieces they create.

DSquared2 is a label that offers us extravagancy not only in their outfits but in ad pics too. The Autumn-winter 2009-2010 ad campaign is a proof to my words.
Keeping that in mind we are not surprised they chose a fabulous Dutch model Lara Stone to be the face of the campaign.
The photoshoot was made by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott and is really great. The photos for Fall 2009 feature the so-called glitz and glam of three young men and a young woman out and about at night. High contrast of black and white was chosen intentionally to show glamour and decadence all together.

Dsquared²’s Dan and Dean Caten have launched a sunglasses collection at their new Boulevard la Croisette shop in Cannes.
This was the most perfect place to present such a line since many celebrities were to be posing in front of millions of cameras.
New sunglass collection was the best choice for those who didn’t want their eyes be hurt. The range is now available at Saks, Bergdorf’s, and Neiman Marcus.
