So I keep coming back to Charlotte Olympia.

Today it’s her Paloma heels from the Vaudeville line (although it could have just easily been included in Orient Express, even though it is a showgirl kind of shoe).

I didn’t mention it previously, but Charlotte Olympia heels are branded with a gorgeous embellishment on the arch of the soles and if you hadn’t guessed what it was, it’s a spider’s web.

(You’ll find in some of Charlotte Dellal’s interviews that she makes reference to Charlotte (the spider) in case you were wondering about the connection.)

These also came in an emerald/green colour.

So I’m continuing on with my Charlotte Olympia affair.

(I’m only sorry Love Stiletto couldn’t present a larger image.)

These heels are called Origami from the Big In Japan line.

I know this is going to come out wrong, and these heels are stunning, but I immediately think of big shoulder pads and teased up 80s hair.

(I could be making some sort of subconscious Deep Purple connection here so that’s entirely my fault. It’s kind of embarrassing and horrifying all at once! That my brain works that way, not that I like Deep Purple!)

Right, you can put all that I’ve just said by the wayside and we’ll start again.

Yes, I think these would look incredibly gorgeous with a Galaxy style dress.

It wouldn’t surprise me if I possibly break my unwritten rule here of trying not to add shoes from the same designer/collection, consecutively.

Even though we’re fast moving into the 2010 season I confess I’m absolutely smitten with a selection of shoes from Charlotte Olympia well over a year on. When the stars in the universe align for the lucky few, this is probably the result.

A shoe line from Charlotte Dellal.

If I’ve calculated correctly – this will be her fourth season. Yet, her shoes project a timeless sort of aura, and, reading of her “It’s all or nothing.” and affection for old school glamour, it’s like someone is echoing my own private Love Stiletto sentiments.

A woman after my own heart.

Using names for her collection such as Show Time, Orient Express, Vaudeville and Big In Japan, Charlotte Dellal is certainly not afraid of going for broke.

I think there are several heels that could’ve spanned across a few seasons, but then, why the hell not? You only live once, I suppose.

Okay that’s enough, before I risk sounding like a sycophant.

You can see exactly why these heels are called Mercury (from the Show Time line) but for some reason whenever I see wings I always think of Icarus.
