Fall 2011's "it" shoe

THE LEOPARD PRINT PUMP

Everywhere I look, it's making an appearance on the feet of fabulous celebrities ahead of and ready to start the trend. What's most amazing about this shoe is it's versatility: it looks great with both solids and prints!

Here are some of my favorite leopard pump appearances so far...

 Blake Lively

 Olivia Palermo

 Selita Ebanks

 Jennifer Hudson

 Blake Lively [again,  in a different variation]

Emma Roberts

Rachel  Bilson

In addition, InStyle Magazine

just announced their September cover girl as the amazing Beyonce, and check out this gorgeous photo of these AMAZING shoes!

 

I'm really in love with this shoe, whether it be round toe, bootie, spiked or pointy-toe. If the shoe was leopard and sporting a high heel, I wanted it. It was clearly on track to be the IT shoe of Fall 2011, so I set out to find it withOUT breaking the bank. My final choice?

The $68 Colin Stuart pump from Victoria's Secret, which can be found here, and shown below!

Already thanking my lucky stars that I have my classic camel trench, c/o Zara Spring 2011, to complete the above look, which I absolutely adore!

If the rounded toe with the Charlotte Olypmia-esque platform front is not your type, Victoria's Secret also has quite a few other budget-friendly options!

Studded pump, $78

 

Multi-Strap pump, $98

Bow pump, $68

Suede Bootie pump, $98

All under $100 (not including shipping, unfortunately), any of these pumps will be the perfect addition to your fall wardrobe! And whether you'll be pairing them with a bright red dress or a pair of jeans and a floral top, you will most definitely be not only getting your $100 worth but also turning heads everywhere you strut.
