The Winged Shoe

We may not be able to fly like Mercury, the messenger of the Gods (or his Greek equivalent, Hermes) but that hasn't stopped designers from taking inspiration from the talaria, or winged sandal, in their quest to take shoes from mere footwear to wearable art. Alexander McQueen's take (pictured below) is the most magnificent we've seen, baroquely ornate with silver or gold wings running the length of the shoes. Marc Jacobs and Beatrix Ong have released understated leather versions for Spring 2010.

For a cute, quirky take, look no further than Vivienne Westwood for melissa's plastic winged sandal that comes in a range of colours.

I think this is DOPE. It also reminds me of American Apparel.

Venus Williams in lace?

Venus Williams' outfit for the 2010 French Open was a bit revealing. She wore a black lace outfit with red lining in it and nude tights under. I don't believe in there being a specific dress code in tennis. As long as one is comfortable and can play their best, it should not matter. This outfit was more on the sexy side though. Good job Venus! (:
