WOW! Taylor Swift is HOT! The 21 year-old songbird is one of the celebrities rocking the skinny wedge shoes – comfortable wedges that look like high heel shoes and will make you look skinnier, by shoe designer Cesare Casadei.

“Celebrities love how the design lengthens the leg,” shoe designer Cesare Casadei tells Life & Style. “It’s comfortable enough for running errands and sophisticated enough for walking the red carpet.”

Celebs love skinny wedges! LOVE it!! Taylor glams up to show off her skinny wedges and she looks absolutely incredible. Plus, I think we have never seen her look more confident and sexier in a pair of heels.

Blake Lively cozied up to her favorite shoe designer Christian Louboutin at Footwear News 24th Annual Achievement Awards in New York City. Fashionable Blake wore a Prabal Gurung shimmering green dress with (you guessed it!) Louboutin heels.

Lively recently got her hands on a lot of Louboutin heels at a designer sample sale and made off with 40 pairs (see that story here.) The Gossip Girl knows what looks good on her!

Blake Lively grabs one more magazine cover before 2010 closes out. This time it’s the December issue of Marie Claire Australia. The fashionable actress looks fabulous as always.

Lively’s cover isn’t the only fashion headline she’s making. In NYC she attended the 2BHAPPY jewelry launch by Lorraine Schwartz and wore a stunning, boob-popping Versace. The knee length gold dress with fringe (see photos under) was paired with Christian Louboutin shoes for an eye-catching effect.

But it’s her love of Louboutin shoes that is becoming legendary. The Gossip Girl fed her shoe addiction in a mighty way as Blake picked up 40 pairs at an exclusive designer sample sale in the Big Apple. The shoe prices start at $150 – $225 for an estimated total of $9,000. That is quite a chunk of change.

“I have sisters, so I’m getting gifts for them and for friends,” the star explained before confessing, “Of course, I got quite a few for myself, too.”

She has very lucky sisters and friends! It’s her money and she looks great so why shouldn’t she?

Joining Kristen Bell and Brittany Snow, The Jonas Brothers are the latest celebs to hop on board and promote TOMS One Day Without Shoes cause on April 8th.

Through everyday encounters with domestic poverty, we are reminded to appreciate having food and shelter, but most of us all but forget about our feet. Food, shelter, AND shoes facilitate life’s fundamentals. Imagine a life without shoes; constantly aware of the ground in front of you, suffering regular cuts and scrapes, tending to infection after each walk, and enduring not only terrain, but heat and cold.
The problem is large, but the solution is simple. Wearing shoes and practicing basic hygiene can prevent both infection and disease due to unsafe roads and contaminated soil. By imagining a life barefoot, we can all contribute to the awareness of these conditions. On April 8th, communities, campuses, organizations, and individuals are banding together to walk barefoot for One Day Without Shoes.

Take a walk with us on April 8th, 2010.

The brothers are going barefoot – are you?

It’s a wintertime Gossip Girl-palooza magazine round up. After Jessica Szohr’s Teen Vogue and 2Magazine covers, Taylor Momsen grabs the Seventeen headline; now Leighton Meester comes all vamped up for Austrailia’s Cleo Magazine. Talking about her shoe love, Meester says:

“I love Jimmy Choo and Louis Vuitton. I really like Sergio Rossi a lot, too. Plus I’m a fan of Moschino – there shoes are always so cute.”

Ok, now I happen to like Meester, Momsen and Szohr but how about a little guy time – Chace Crawford has been laying too low lately.

‘Gossip Girl’  star Taylor Momsen looked white hot at the premiere for ‘Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen.’  The actress and musician has been spending most of her free time with her band Pretty Reckless and hasn’t been appearing at premieres or parties lately. What do you think of her look and those lace-up shoes?

Holiday time inspires many to give to charity and Emmy Rossum is no different. The actress has donated shoes to the Piperlime.com drive for the organization Soles4Souls.

Rossum is starring in the upcoming Dragonball Z movie: Dragonball Evolution.
