Desirable: Azzaro Crystal Detail Bootie

How chic are these booties? Can you imagine them paired with a simple black dress and just the twinkle of the crystals catching the light? I know–totally fabulous! These shoes will make any girl feel like Cinderella. Unfortunately, you better find your Prince Charming first, and he better come with a serious bank account!!

Affordable: Topshop Paris Premier High Satin Shoes

How much do you think these shoes are? Here’s a hint: They look chic, sexy and edgy, and they are constructed of satin. OK, so you have no clue! They are $170! Fantastic! I know you want them! Me too.

Repulsive: Prada Platform Sandal with Bow Detail

Unless you are planning to become a walking Christmas gift, you should avoid these tacky shoes! Simple is always best. Between the bow and the gold fabric, these sandals are way too busy.
