Nothing transitions your favorite little black dress into the Spring season or goes with a bright RM by Roland Mouret mini quite like a pair of nude heels and matching handbag. Above are a few of our current favorites from Giuseppe Zanotti, Fendi, and Miu Miu. For a more budget-friendly option, try these platform slingbacks from Stuart Weitzman at Bergdorf Goodman.

If your favorite great auntie, who lived on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in the Sixties, opened up her closet and handed over a well-preserved collection of vintage fox fur jackets, plaid coat dresses with gold buttons and matching bottoms, and baby doll dresses with peter pan collars, you would not have to purchase a single item from Miuccia Prada's pre-fall collection for Miu Miu. However, if said relative and wardrobe does not exists, you can get the desired bourgeois vintage look with Prada's chunky, knitted mittens and knee-high socks when the collection lands in stores late this summer.
What was once reserved for pretty women who walked the streets has now made its way to the catwalks and, potentially, on to your feet. I'm talking about the over-the-knee or thigh-high boot. Worn with a short dress or even shorts, a hint of leg is all you need to show some sex appeal. We're loving the perforation of the Stella McCartney pair, but the Miu Mius and Choos are just as cute.
A perfect compliment to the Prada Resort 2010 collection, Miuccia Prada got sporty with Miu Miu this season. As was the case with the Prada collection, mixed prints were a major theme while skirts in both collections were short and flirty. Miu Miu, always the more accessible of the two lines, showed paler colors and offered, overall, more fluid silhouettes.

Given the sheer quantity of sequined clothing that hit shelves last season we're surprised anyone can stomach the look anymore. Leave it to Miuccia Prada to re-imagine the trend so that it sticks around for another year. Her nude and black embroidered sequin looks as part of the Miu Miu Fall 2009 collection looked elegant and, relatively speaking, minimal. Topshop--ever so savvy with interpreting the newest collections without crossing the intellectual property line--has appropriated the look months ahead of the game.
