PUMPS WITH A MODERN EDGE SPRING/SUMMER 2010




For this Spring/Summer 2010 season Louise Golden present a collection of studded pumps and high heels for Top Shop, that will make you stand out in any crowd. Pumps are always great , they add height and slim the body ....they are sexy and powerful . Designer Louise Golden presents a line combining glitz and glam with a Modern Edge punk vibe to the traditional pump/high heel. Silver studs around the shoe bring attention to the Modern Edge structure of the shoe while bringing the eye to the spiked adorned hell ( or the spiked front of the shoe ..in this case the silver pumps). The combination of punk rock and glamorous glitz create a powerful sexy look that can work for both day and evening. The shoes can be worn with skinny leg jeans and a tshirt or with a simple black or red dress . Its all about combining pieces to create an individual look that enhances the Modern Edge of both the shoe and your personality .
