    8 Bandage Booties And Pumps That'll Have Your Feet Under Wraps!

    Sure, it's always sad to see a once-hot trend overstay its welcome, but the good news is that some of our favorite styles don't necessarily leave the racks forever -- they just migrate to another department! What the Herve Leger bandage dress (or its more affordable counterparts) did for the body, the bandage bootie does for the feet (well, sort of). We won't go as far as describing the footwear trend as "feet-con" in the spirit of "body-con," but the thick-strapped look is similarly sexy in its banded, wrapped-up appearance. Put a sexy spin on the classic Mary Jane with this banded suede pump by Acne, or go strappy (and save!) with a multi-textured gladiator-style heel from Forever 21. Take a look at the slideshow for 8 varied takes on the bandage heel!

    Video Style Steal: Kristinia Debarge Works It In "Sabotage"

    If Kristinia DeBarge looks slightly familiar to you, don't worry, you're not going crazy. I watched American Juniors too -- I'll admit it -- back when they still believed in inflicting Simon Cowell-like cruelty upon children... and Kristinia was quite the contender. She may not have made the winning group of singers (but let's face it -- it was probably for the best), but now she's making it big with single girl anthems like "Goodbye" from her solo album Exposed. In the video for her second single "Sabotage," she dons her darker side in a cropped moto jacket and textured tights, and shows off some sultry dance moves to boot. She may have first arrived on the scene years ago as a cute little crooner, but now she's sexy, single, and stylish... and ready to kick some serious butt.

    Which Young Starlet Showed Off The Most Grown-Up Fashion ...

    This past Saturday, while UCLA students begrudgingly returned to campus as spring break came to a close, their back-to-school blues were made just a little more bearable with a slew of orange carpet celebrity sightings right on campus! Nickelodeon's 2009 Kids' Choice Awards, which takes place annually at the school's Pauley Pavilion, brought to Bruin territory the likes of Megan Fox, Miley Cyrus, the Jonas Brothers, and the whole High School Musical crew, among tons of other Young Hollywood appearances worthy of making any paparazzo drool. While the kids called the shots as far as who received a golden Blimp statuette and who got slimed, it was the ladies who took the cake on the carpet, looking much more like refined young women than their kiddie characters who shot them to fame. Instead of the more casual jeans-and-heels combo that stars have been known to rock at the lesser-hyped award shows geared towards kids and teens, today's younger vixens stepped it up a notch with designer babydolls and platform sandals, showing that they can compete stylewise with even some of fashion's most mature! Vote below on who you think looked the most fab beyond her years! Photo Credit: PR Photos

    Whether you're tackling midterms or quarter finals this week, impatiently crossing off the calendar days in anxious anticipation of Spring Break, or just trying to trudge through another tough few days at the office, it can be a struggle to work up the motivation every morning to keep your fingers off the snooze button and get ready to give your all to everything you'll attempt throughout the day. With all the to-do's piling up on your plate, it might seem frivolous to take out extra time from your agenda or precious sleep schedule to plan out the perfect ensemble, footwear included; after all, whatever you grab off your closet floor in the dim wee hours of the dawn will suit you just fine. However, haven't you ever noticed how looking great, feeling confident head-to-toe, and even just feeling excited about a new pair of shoes just boosts your overall mood and makes your optimism go through the roof? That's right, I'll say it -- a stylish pair of shoes can save the day! Whether your week is best suited for some smart flats like Virgos, a practical pair of tennies for speedy Sagittariuses, or a killer pair of platforms for ultimate attention-getting Aquariuses, you're destined to find that putting a little extra thought into what you tread in will not only make you look amazing, but will also help you be armed and ready for whatever hoops you'll have to jump through or obstacles you'll have to sidestep in the days ahead. Check the slideshow to see what the stars have in store for you and your feet this week!

    Fall Head Over Heels In Love With Nine West Sandals For Spring!

    I love Nine West. Their shoes are amazingly adorable (for the most part), durable, well-made and - perhaps most important of all though I loathe to admit I need this in a shoe - comfortable. Nine West has done a great job of fusing style and comfort. These are shoes that can be worn to the office, and - if you choose the right ones - likely even worn to walk to and from work as well! They're definitely functional for a night out on the town. That's why I've had my finger on the pulse of West, and was ecstatic when their new line came out for spring: sandals and wedges and strappies, oh my! There are tons of options and this season they've gone a bit more structured with a lot of their sandals - wide heels, sturdier platforms, thicker straps. These are not dainty shoes, folks, and I love them! My favorites are the platforms with straps. These are an emerging trend right now and you can't go wrong. They can be worn with jeans, skirts, office attire, sundresses and much more. So prepare for a fun summer and stock up on your Nine West! See more at TheFind.
