I'm never sure what to expect with Dolce and Gabanna shoe collections. They are almost always over the top and not realistic for normal, everyday wear. This Spring/Summer 2010 collection, however, is fabulous in all of it's rocker, street chic. I love that Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabanna used black lace and fishnet material instead of the overused stud trend to achieve their look. It's reminds me of new generation blogger meets 1985 Madonna.

The shoes have a purposeful, unfinished, unpolished look, a detail that extends to the sole of the shoe in some cases (Check out the sole in the 2nd picture below). The lace and fishnet addition works with the sandals as well as the more conservative pumps. Genius collection, I believe. This collection is sooo not my style, yet I must have a pair, preferably the burlap pump with the fishnet "sock".
