In order to get your mind off of our McQueen loss, here are a pair of lovely Diego Dolcini shoes. I love the color combination of purple and gold, and the metallic blue and pink compliment the overall effect. This shoe has a .25 inch purple satin platform with a metallic leather flower appliqué over the T-strap. It has a 4.25 inch metallic heel that fades from pink to purple. This is a very pretty and feminine shoe perfect for the upcoming warm seasons. Available at LUISAVIAROMA.COM, $1, 055. 

These Diego Dolcini shoes are literally works of art...art deco. While I have never been a fan of that particular style, I love these shoes. The vamp is made from ayers snakeskin and the slanted wooden wedge heel has a large Plexiglass transparent triangle shape at base, which, is obviously what makes this shoe unique. This would be a good shoe for a night out with the girls, but it's also safe for a business setting. $1,253 at LUISAVIAROMA.COM .

I have just recently become more aware of the fabulous designer Diego Dolcini, and he is quickly becoming one of my favorites. He is not new to the design scene, having done sexy collaborations with Bruno Magli, Emilio Pucci, and Dolce & Gabbana, and he reigned as Creative Director for men's and women's shoes at Gucci. His Dolcini line is very popular in Europe, and as I discover more and more european designers, I am positive we in the US are being jipped out of the best shoes. Thank goodness for ecommerce.

This gorgeous shoe is his lace up jeweled sandal and features a combination of fine materials. It has grey suede, silver leather, and silver Ayers snake cut-out straps and thin reinforced eyelets with Grey ribbon laces. Of course, the focal point is the jeweled heel. It is 4.75 inches and covered in asymmetrical crystals. This shoe also has a 1 inch platform. $1,958 at LUISAVIAROMA.COM .

These Diego Dolcini shoes are sooo sexy. They are also super exclusive and only available for special order. These shoes are definitely an investment piece, but you can wear them year round, Christmas and New Years parties, as well as evenings out during the summer. This shoe is the kind you get re-soled if needed, but never, ever throw out! The sandals have a 4.75 stiletto heel embellished with cascading black and clear crystals, a thin platform, front zip closure and multiple width straps covered in multi shape and color crystals. They are currently available for pre-order and will be released in September, $2,250.
