Pink Shoes 2012

With classic feminine styling, and offered in an attention-grabbing shade of pink, these stunning shoes from Kate Spade New York absolutely scream "warm weather." Also available in black, these sexy, sultry slingbacks have very wearable 3.5" heels, and glamorous bows topping their vamps. And, while the satin uppers clearly make these perfect for evening attire, they could actually work quite well for daytime too.

With hidden platform soles and 3.5" covered wedge heels, these sexy shoes from Steve Madden couldn't be more timely. The medium fuchsia shade is especially enticing in suede -- which has become as popular of a choice for spring and summer as it's always been for fall and winter.

Priced at just under $180, these open-toed pumps also look great in black, orange, and taupe.

With a bit of a retro vibe, these classic pumps are every bit as interesting and attractive as their higher-heeled counterparts, but they're much easier to wear, given their chunky 3" heels.

I'm crazy about this vibrant shade of pink, and the suede uppers add a great textural component to these open-toed pumps. But if you're feeling the style, and not the shade, don't worry, these lookers come in a wide array of other colors and materials, including synthetic black, taupe, gray, and ivory, as well as in turquoise suede.

The name of these Bottega Veneta shoes may not catch your attention, but the shoes themselves certainly will.

With classic 4" heels; glossy, shocking pink uppers, and a glamorous, curvy silhouette, these Italian-made pumps wide open toes, and a design that will see you through years to come -- all that, and the shade is absolutely perfect for spring and summer 2012.

If you're not into trendy, funky, chunky, or attention-getting, look away quickly, as these super-hefty platform sandals from Steven by Steve Madden are all of those things and more.

Capitalizing on several of the season's hottest trends, including sky-high chunky heels, and ultra-thick platform soles, the specs for these sandals are as follows: 5.5" covered heels, 1.5" covered platform soles, and personality to spare. Of course, it's the pink and tan version that landed these fun sandals on the list, but there is also a black and blue version that is nearly as awesome.

Lest all of my flat-loving sisters think I forgot about them, I wanted to include at least one really versatile and adorable pair of ballet flats -- I didn't know when I found them they'd also be so reasonably-priced.

Ringing up at $50 - $60 per pair, these classic ballerina flats have leather uppers, barely-there .25" heels, elasticized toplines, and rubber soles. They also come in a huge selection of colors and prints, including this solid pink version, as well as several others that include shades of pink in their patterns.

Shoes like these are ideal for pairing with leggings, capri pants, and jeans.

Here's another pair of flats, and despite featuring floral-embellishments, there's nothing garden-variety about them.

With lush suede uppers and wide, open toes, these pretty flat shoes come in loads of great colors, including this feminine shade of pink, as well as chartreuse, orange, turquoise, periwinkle, yellow, red, black, and beige.

Priced at $130 per pair, these shoes would look great with everything from capris, leggings, and shorts to mid-length skirts and dresses.

With classic espadrille flavoring and loads of updated details, these wedge sandals from Michael Antonio are cute, trendy, and affordable, priced at just under $50 per pair.

Perfect for pairing with all your favorite warm weather skirts and dresses, as well as with shorts or jeans, these sandals feature adjustable ankle straps, and 5-inch wedge heels and 1.5" platform soles -- both of which are wrapped in raffia.
