Runway-Inspired Shoes, Minus the Pain

So as you know, Fashion Week is almost wrapping up here in New York City. And after days of trekking through back-to-back shows and presentations, I have to admit that my feet hurt! It's not just me, though; every editor I speak to is feeling the pain, not to mention the models who have to walk down the runway on stilt-like stilettos.

Not every runway shoe inspires winces, though. Etro's Spring 2009 show featured rustic-chic sandals that inspired this strappy, stacked-heel look courtesy of Børn ($100, bornshoes.com). Perfect for when you want to feel like a model without taking a hit to your wallet or your feet. Enjoy!
