Shoes have always been a favorite fashion accessory and a key area of weakness for many fashionistas. The hit television show Sex and the City placed lots of emphasis on the shoe category, particularly its star character Carrie Bradshaw who is known for her shoe addiction. In one episode Carrie actually calculates the amount of money she spent on her chic designer shoe collection and realizes that she could have wisely invested that money in purchasing a NYC apartment.

Whether you have a shoe fetish or not, Apparel Search presents an overview of some of our favorite shoe brands, some at prices even Carrie could have (wisely) afforded. Here, a few of our best picks.

Jimmy Choo - We would be remiss if we did not mention Jimmy Choo, the 'red carpet' shoe of choice for many of Hollywood's elite. Regarded as stylish but wearable, Choo's renowned shoe brand was the recipient of the 2008 'Designer Brand of the Year' award from the British Fashion Council; the 2008 ACE award for 'Brand of the Year' from the Accessory Council; the 2008 'Brand of the Year' from the 22nd Annual Footwear News Awards in New York; and the 2009 Nordstrom 'Partners in Excellence' award. The Jimmy Choo philosophy is to create exclusive shoes and accessories that are both luxurious and practical for all occasions while creating a look that is instantaneously recognized as Jimmy Choo.  Learn more about Jimmy Choo.
