Heather Graham wore Donna Karan metallic gold wooden platform sandals to the 2011 Bahamas International Film Festival. These heels are from the Spring 2011 collection and still available online (on sale!) in gold at Zappos. You can also find two different varieties of this heel online at Yoox. Heather wore these back in June & I’m glad she wore these again; they’re beautiful and appropriate for the Bahamas. Check out more recent celebrity shoe spottings.
Kate Moss was featured in the August 2011 issue of Vogue UK wearing Donna Karan Fall 2011 platform pumps. Wow, such beautiful heels! I hope I see these pumps in satin all over the red carpet this fall/winter season. P.S. – If you haven’t snagged any of Donna Karan’s amazing Spring 2011 heels yet, there is a platform sandal on her website that is on sale! Check out more recent celebrity shoe spottings.

Welcome to a new series on ShoeRazzi; Shoes She Should Have Worn. It’s inspired by a post I did awhile on my other blog which I really enjoyed working on.
1. Katie Holmes in Roger Vivier
What she wore: Her own design from Holmes & Yang with Roger Vivier boots
I get her logic behind these Roger Vivier “Belle Lucie” peep-toe boots. She wanted to create a contrast with her dress & choose a shoe that wasn’t too overwhelming with the stripes however, this shoe doesn’t work. In theory it sounds great but I felt like this choice was too chunky. Her outfit didn’t flow. Her choice is extra disappointing because there are a million other black sandals, boots, SHOES to choose from!
She should have worn:
1. Charlotte Olympia Suede Leaf Open Toe Ankle Boots
These heels would have looked perfect with her outfit! They actually match very well with the dress and the cutout leaves around the foot would have provided the break up of skin needed since her dress almost completely covered her.
2. Dolce & Gabbana Open Tor Suede & Mesh Low Boots
If Katie still wanted to wear a boot, this choice would have worked. It’s mesh so the foot would have shown through providing the breakup needed.
3. Sergio Rossi Suede Sling Peep Toe Sandals
This heel would have been a more “typical” choice but at least would have looked a ton better!
2. Katy Perry in Christian Louboutin
What she wore: George Chakra fall 2009 couture with the Christian Louboutin Alta Spritney Peep Toe Suede Sandals
These Christian Louboutins were too much for her gown. I give her props for trying to wear a splash of purple but the gold-strap on top was too much metallic.
She should have worn:
A pump that truly complemented her gown & made her look complete.
My choices:
1. Christian Louboutin No Privé 120 patent slingbacks
Never underestimate the power of “simple” black heel.
2. Giuseppe Zanotti Mirror-embellished suede sandals
Katy is flashy & likes to wear fun things. These would have been over-the-top but would have worked better than the already over-the-top purple Christian Louboutins she chose.
3. Roberto Cavalli Chain-embellished suede sandals
4. Alexander McQueen Heart peep-toe pumps
5. Donna Karan Satin platform sandals
6. Yves Saint Laurent Tribute suede sandals
If Katy absolutely wanted a splash of color, ( I would have to see them on to make a certain decision) but feel these could have worked:
3. Sarah Jessica Parker in Salvatore Ferragamo
I’ve been reading tons of reviews and many people are disappointed by Sarah Jessica Parker’s shoe choice for the New York Sex & the City 2 premiere. I agree; it wasn’t very daring.
What she wore: Valentino couture with Salvatore Ferragamo double platform pumps
What she should have worn:
1. Nicholas Kirkwood
She’s been wearing his designs all week long (I’m not complaining he is my favorite shoe designer right now). Couldn’t he have made her a custom design for the premiere?! Maybe the gown was a last minute switch from Halston to Valentino…
Examples:
Nicholas Kirkwood for Liberty of London:
Okay – they might be overwhelming, but it’s just a Nicholas Kirkwood example….at least these are daring!!
2. Brian Atwood
Again, I still feel a custom creation from one of her favorite designers (Louboutin, Kirkwood or Brian Atwood) would have been the best choice. Brian Atwood examples:
3. Jerome C. Rousseau
Or what about Jerome C. Rousseau? His designs are so brilliant and very “SJP” & “Carrie” (pleasing both audiences :) )
4. Emma Roberts in Brian Atwood
What she wore: Temperely London pre-fall 2010 dress with gold Brian Atwood Maniac hidden platforms.
These were too big for her feet and too chunky. A nice delicate shoe would have worked much better.
She should have worn:
1. Sergio Rossi Swarovski Peep Toe Low Boots
2. Sergio Rossi T-Strap Cage Sandal
It’s Your Turn!
