Booties, Shooties, and Ankle Boots Galore!

As much as I hate to subscribe to huge trends, I've succumbed to this one...my booty wants a pair of booties! You wouldn't think they'd be universally flattering, but now there's such a variety of styles out there that you're bound to find a pair out there that make your gams look good. They're just too irresistibly cute when paired opaque tights or skinny jeans. Whatever you may call them - booties, ankle boots, shooties (shoes x booties), there's so many out there to pick from - from suede to belted, cut out to peep toe, studded to ruched. That's why I need your help to pick a pair out, or, you can just take a look at my slideshow for your own shopping entertainment. Since I'm a shorty, of course they all have heels, that's just the way I roll.

Style News: Eva Mendes' Nude Calvin Klein Obsession Ad Unveiled in Times Square

Eva Mendes has gotten controversial on us before with her nude pics in Italian Vogue. A couple of weeks ago, we shared the news that U.S. television networks refused to air the racy Calvin Klein "Secret Obsession" perfume commercials with more nude Eva. But of course Calvin Klein likes to push the boundaries and to launch "Secret Obsession" and kick off New York Fashion Week, he's stuck an enormous Eva Mendes Secret Obsession billboard in the middle of Times Square. In addition to unveiling the billboard on 47th and Broadway - CK had hot male models on hand offering passersby the first chance to smell the seductive Secret Obsession fragrance.

Next Big Thing: Nino Bauti Knows Texture and Tailoring

Luxurious materials, immaculate tailoring, and feminine silhouettes - what more can you ask for? Spanish-born, London-based Nino Bauti steps up to the design plate and gives us simple, clean designs in retro mini-dresses, slouchy blouses, and structured skirts, trousers, and coats. Nino was inspired to start his fashion career by his grandmother who was a famous house model for Balenciaga. An alumni of St. Martin's college of Art & Design, Nino studied under the esteemed Alexander McQueen and Giorgio Armani before launching his own women's ready-to-wear line for Spring/Summer 2007. READ MORE to see what inspires Nino and see the SLIDESHOW of his latest collection, which uses what I consider as the perfect navy color.
