I've said it before and here I go again, those Olsen twins have a pretty good line with Elizabeth and James. These shoes, the Layla sandal, is fantastic. They have a slight metallic tinge over peweter colored leather. The design is pretty unique, as well. I have never seen this style shoe with a big toe strap alone. The swirled stitch design and cut out detail give the shoe a slight tribal feel. This shoe has a 4 inch heel.Available at Zappos, $354.

I gotta hand it to those little twins, their Elizabeth and James shoe collection isn't half bad, and I actually really like these boots. They are called the Vegas boots and they come in this chocolate brown leather and suede. They are pull on and then you adjust the straps around the legs for an optimal fit. They remind me a bit of some of Alexander McQueen or Rick Owens boots designs. They have a 4.25 inch heel and a .5 inch platform. $564 at zappos.com.

The Elizabeth and James Fall 2009 shoe collection is surprisingly decent. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen are the designers behind this label, and celebrity luxury brands are usually a flop (think P Diddy, or whatever he calls himself now, and J Lo), but I think this brand may survive. Here are a few shoes from their Fall 2009 collection.

These are simple wedge sandals that expose the top of the foot for a modern chic style. $325

These shoes have a great worn look that would compliment jeans. They have a hidden platform, the most noticeable trend for the upcoming season, and a wide leg opening for slip on wear. Similar to some of Marc Jacobs designs for fall '09, the wide leg opening allows you to see the top of the foot when you're wearing them. The look is unique and pretty cool. $465 

I don't like this shoe at all, but it's totally not my style. It's a flat and it's an oxford - yuck. $335

I love this shoe and could totally see myself buying them. I like the unique cut out side and the uniform color and material give the shoe a futuristic style. $375 

This is a simple pump, but the zipper detail give it a street chic edge. Many designers are doing similar shoes for Fall '09, including Steve Madden and Guiseppe Zanotti. $325
