pretty, pretty, especially the first ones. I think the quality is excellent, especially for the price. The leather is super soft, and they are ridiculously comfortable--I can walk in the heels comfortably for hours.

thanks for posting, kucejoe! I have to say, this is not a good season for shoes. [:(] The Dries ones are pretty, of course, and Yohji is Yohji.</p>
But those Ann shoes....not so good, I don't think. Almost ugly. [:S]</p>

With the Ann shoes, you are quite right, except for the almost part, they are just ugly. I love Ann D. but those seem to be made for a crazy 80 year old woman who pretends to be a witch in her spare time.</p>
I cannot really comment on whether this is a good season for shoes or not, but I can say that fall/winter shoes are always more appealing to me. I much prefer seeing a woman in a beautiful pair of boots to one in some strappy sandal.</p>
Anyways, the Dries is nice, but I quite like the Yohji...I'm a sucker for combat boots, the mary janes are nice (except I cannot fathom why they are around 900 US!!...and more expensive than the combat boots). However, the description of the Yohji tall boots makes them appealing: </p>

mmm... why am I always liking stuff other people here don't? haha. I kinda like the Ann D shoes this season, as much as I dont really like Ann D in general. On another note, I really like the blue pattent leather Marsell shoes this season. Might be hard to pull off, but the color is great and the shapes are interesting.
kucejoe, I agree about the Yohji shoes--those boots sound amazing! The only thing that bothers me is the pointed toe. [:(] I have noticed that Junya and Comme also do this Western style with their boots often. I love his footwear in general though--last spring he had these very cute plimsolls that I adored, but couldn't manage $400 for a canvas shoe! </p>
deuxmille, what blue patent (!) Marsell shoes? How do you like these Balenciagas for next fall? [:P]</p>

I just spilled my tea on my computer seeing those shoes, no kidding. I can't hate them because they remind me of those incredible jofa helmets in tron (see my avatar). I can't say I like them either, because they made me spill my tea ;)
