MILEY CYRUS in SANDALS

This picture of Miley Cyrus in sandals that put her pretty feet and legs on display has opened up a line of discussion on the brand of the gray above the knee dress she was wearing, what her shoe size happens to be as well as where we can find the sunglasses in the picture.


The black BCBG sandals are called the GIANNI LACE-UP STRAPPY SANDAL and were originally offered at the price of $240.00, but are now on sale at a deep discount. So if you feel that you can't live another minute without these cage or modified gladiator style sandals, now may be the time to pick them up while they are for sale at an affordable price; for designer sandals at least.

High heel strappy sandals with an exotic, bohemian look are all the rage. You must admit that these are very attractive (and would have looked even nicer with painted toenails) even with an extreme number of straps wrapping the arch of the foot and the closed heel.

Return to Celebrity News, Purses, Makeup and Shoes to see more pictures of your favorite stars and what they are wearing.

All Things Must Pass...

Peace.

Jake Gyllenhaal Kicks Pap

Did Jake Gyllenhaal need to kick this annoying pap or could he have gone about his business without resorting to physical assault? You just let them win when you do that stuff Jake.

Pumpkinheaded Dumb-Ass Sued

Amanda Bynes is being sued along with several other motorists who were involved in a multi-car accident at an intersection in Beverly Hills two years ago. Bynes apparently can't drive for shit: Just last August she was involved in a second wreck in which the other driver was injured. Maybe Amanda has trouble holding up her massive head and therefore doesn't see the cars in front of her?

Spot The Emaciated Freak

I love Lagerfeld's tie. That fucker is wide. Actually, is that really a tie or did he accidentally tuck a tablecloth into his collar and get up? I wish he'd slap that bitch Knightley right in the face. "And that's for that endless snoozefest The Duchess. And that's for those hideous Alba-bangs. And that's for stabbing me in the face with your cheekbone when we were air-kissing. Bitchbitchbitchbitch. Oh, Renfield, bring me a bag of O-negative. I'm feeling sluggish."

Toasted Angie

"Hey look...I found your Benjamin button. Heeeeeee."

Taylor Swift is a Teen Vogue Covergirl!

Country Singer Taylor Swift takes the cover of the March '09 issue of Teen Vogue where she admits "I never expected all this to happen to me."


On having her picture taken: “Well, I’ve never had paparazzi in Nashville before; that’s a new thing. You really have a lot of privacy here. I saw that documentary on Britney Spears, and I feel bad for her—she can’t leave her house!”

On her love for country music: “Well, I started begging my mom to bring me here after I saw a TV special on Faith Hill—she came to Nashville, and that’s how she made it. So for spring break we rented a car and drove up and down Music Row, handing my homemade demo CD to the receptionists at all the labels. I’d say, ‘Hey, I’m eleven, and I want a record deal. Call me.’”

On pursing a career in acting: “Only if it was a show that I loved, like CSI or Grey’s Anatomy, or if it was a really cool script. But I’m not feeling this desperate urge.”

On her red-carpet style: “I’ve learned a lot. I go to all these photo shoots, and each time I figure out something new about myself and what I want to wear. For a big night, I like Marchesa or Badgley Mischka—and I love Oscar de la Renta. I’ve never gotten to wear one of his dresses; if I ever did, I would probably faint. And I am obsessed with high heels.”

On her ‘I’ve finally made it’ moment: “Oh, no, I’m never going to have that moment. All of this is amazing, but it doesn’t guarantee anything about the future. I still haven’t made it to where I want to be.”

Check out the full interview, behind-the-scenes pics and video shoot at TeenVogue.com.
