The term “two-faced” never evokes a positive image. My mind jumps between backstabbing friends and hideous Batman villians when I hear that word. However, it is the perfect description of Betsey Johnson’s “Kell” shoe:

T-straps are always sexy shoes, and Betsey Johnson has added her own unique flair to these. Johnson uses a double t-strap to create a captivating, bi-colour effect. Everyone’s eyes will follow your feet in these babies. This is the red/black satin model, which completely captures rock star glamour in a strappy, little dress shoe. I could imagine these shoes adorning the feet of rock goddess Shirley Manson, or maybe more appropriately, Meg White of the red, white and black clad White Stripes duo.

The Betsey Johnson “Kell” also comes in a wine/gold satin model and a black/gold patent leather model:

The wonderful thing about Betsey Johnson’s “Kell” is that the three different models of this shoe evoke completely different fashion vibes. While the red/black model is rock star chic, the wine/gold model reminds me of summer days and sundresses, and the black/gold model looks like something for a classy cocktail party. Steve Madden is known for creating many distinct models of the same shoe, and Betsey Johnson has succeeded in doing the same. These shoes not only come in different colours, they come with completely different personalities.

What do you think of the Betsey Johnson “Kell”? Which model is your favourite?
