Manolo Blahnik receives the Walk of Style Award. For those females who might feel that spending $700 to $1000 for a pair of fabulous Manolo Blahnik shoes is beyond their financial means, the designer has a simple suggestion. Don’t try to be Carrie Bradshaw, with hundreds of pairs and no money in the bank.

"This is my philosophy. It’s like funny, it’s stupid, but maybe it makes sense. I think women should buy one pair, just one pair, and that will last a long time. Invest in that one pair. This is the one thing people can do."

 

 

 

This years most expensive shoe, or boot I should say, can be yours for $14,000. They are alligator skin Manolo Blaniks. They would go beautifully with this. They are available at Manolo Blahnik's West 54th Street boutique in New York.

Quick shoe stat: shoes costing $1,000 and up account for less than 1% of total women's fashion footwear sales (fashion footwear is defined as anything other than athletic)*
