Marley and Me co-stars Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson visited the German hit show “Wetten Dass…” at Messe Duesseldorf in Germany. Making news is the pair gobbled down a doggie treat, though now we hear the biscuit wasn’t a biscuit at all, but rather a canine cookie.

The BIGGER deal is what Jennifer had on her feet. A decadent pair of Behnaz Kanani lace-up platforms. And how! With their peep-toe and their cut-out sides, it’s still impossible to miss Kanani’s signature heel. L-O-V-E!

* Thanks JJ for the photos!

The story here is Behnaz Kanani. Most recently Mischa Barton was spotted in the same pair of heels, this time in a neutral two-tone palate. ThanksShunews for the story. You’ll find Behnaz Kanani at Harvey Nichols, and you can of course check on www.behnazkanani.com site for others!

Designer Spotlight: Pour La Victoire

Meet Pour La Victoire … Brazilian Shoes With a French Twist! This haute line that has caught the eye of some of our favorite “gam gals” Anne Hathaway, Kate Hudson and Emma Roberts.

Launched in Spring 2008, Pour La Victoire was conceptualized to deliver a fresh line of women’s footwear that is fashionable and affordable with quality appeal. In other words, high-end shoes at guilt-free prices!

“We felt strongly that the shoe industry was long overdue for an exciting new concept that was not the rehashing of successful mass market brands. Our hopes were just recently realized,” says David Giordano, co-found of the brand.

Entering its 5th collection, Pour La Victoire offers a myriad of styles unique to its own. Each shoe comes with stylish and bold color combinations, with chic trims and with sexy, distinctive heel shape or toe characteristics. All shoes are made in premium soft leathers or materials carefully crafted in Brazil. The timeless, mature styles have French girls names such as Colette, Heloise and Bijou to play off the sophisticated European sensibility. Pour La Victoire is the shoe for the 20th century Marie Antoinette, a shopaholic’s dream come true; a fashionable, high-quality shoe at a great price.

Pour La Victoire can now be found at leading retailer’s including Bloomingdales, Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus. Press reaction has been extraordinary garnering over 200 features in publications such as WWD, Harper’s Bazaar, Nylon magazine, Teen Vogue and People Style Watch.

And when someone asks “who are you wearing?” … let the correct pronunciation for Pour La Victoire, which means “for the victory,” roll off your tongue. Click here to listen and learn sole sista!

Christian Louboutin, the undisputed master of modern footwear, has revealed a sophisticated and whimsical website. Past the Copperfield-esque prompt and a “go to collection” click, you’re virtually transported to a shoe collection in the woods complete with a buzzing nymph-faced Louboutin.

Help yourself inside a box or two. You’ll find fancy footwear in the “High Heels” box with classic pumps, birdcage heels and bowed satin mules. Or peek inside the “Extremely High” box and pause on”Differa” – the Ice Patent Blue naughty strappy sandal.

In true witty Louboutin fashion, there’s a shoebox named “Total Madness.” Here you’ll find “Dillian” – the metallic flower-laden T-strap strappy pump. It’s the shoe Louboutin designed for Phillip Lim’s spring runway show. And WE LOVE it!

When you’ve exhausted yourself in the Spring/Summer boxes, you’ll want to click on the “Classics” where you can peruse what looks like a private boudoir of Louboutin standbys, or peek behind the curtain of handbags. And when you’re ready to pull the trigger, each page prompts you find where in the world you’ll find your Louboutins. Happy Shopping.
