A new trend always has to face the first wave of displeased customers, so even such nice sandals with extended shaft have to deal with it. Some fell instantly in love with those sandals, while the others didn't appreciate their uniquity at all. To be onest i also didn't like them at first glance, but only because of one reason - i wouldn't know what to wear along with them and i was also afraid of the "shortened legs" effect.

Accustomed with the extended shaft sandals i'm very happy with the fact that this style will be still trendy in the autumn-winter season 2010. This is just one of the new, inspiring designs of heeled pumps and this is my favourite version - with stiletto heel.

Besides the leather Belmondo Alioth 724631M with a gorgeus red sole i also recommend the hot and sexy Blink Tilda 300485 boots:

They're a harmonious blend of classic style and avant-garde. Smooth, classic outsole of these pumps is embellished with draperied and studded areas. The smooth and slender stiletto is putting cherry on top of this masterly design. They're made of utah (suede imitation), while the footbed is made of natural leather.
