It’s about a metamorphosis. There’s a big change going on in these times, said designer Giambattista Valli.

That is how Giambattista Valli refered to the look for his Spring 2009 collection, shown on the runways of Paris. This collection is truly magnificent. It is very feminine and classic. Valli has a lot of fans which include; Victoria Beckham, Natalie Portman, Caroline Sieber and Emma Watson, to name but a few, and you can see why they love his creations.

So gorgeous. I love strappy sandals and these are just fabulous!

These are my favourite shoes. I will take the dress too.

Absolutely gorgeous. So feminine and girly.

I love this colour and it works with the black dress.

So be in the know and do not embarrass yourself and get caught out with pronounciations.

The shoes were supposed to come out in February but am still yet to see a pair and at the moment, there are some stores where you can order them but there are no guarantees.

I have also received some good tips on where to order a pair but my advice is, find a store that will be stocking them in the near future and get yourself on their waiting list. But any more tips will be much appreciated!!!

These Orange and Gold T-bar sandals, £315.00 by Giambattista Valli are truly stunning. The bold colours with metallics combine two key trends into one making it a truly divine pair of shoes that will look fantastic with anything and everything.
