Think you know sexy shoes? Prove it, and you could win a $10,000 Saks Fifth Avenue shopping spree! On Monday, Saks Fifth Avenue and Footwear News kicked off its 2011 annual Sexy Shoes contest – where you can vote for the hottest pair of heels of the year. The 25 pairs of designer shoes were chosen by Footwear News editors and include haute heels from the likes of Diego Dolcini, Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin, Nicholas Kirkwood, Fendi, Prada, YSL, Aperlai, Jerome C. Rousseau, Giuseppe Zanotti, Sergio Rossi, Valentino, Stuart Weitzman, Miu Miu, Givenchy, Tania Spinelli, Roger Vivier, Oscar de la Renta, Manolo Blahnik, Gucci, Dior, Edmundo Castillo, Chrissie Morris, B Brian Atwood and Alexandre Birman. Your vote enters you into the contest (you can vote once every day up until the contest ends on October 21) , where you can win the aforementioned grand prize or the second prize – a $1,500 Saks gift card! Either one entitles you to buy at least one pair of sexy shoes for yourself! (No purchase is required).

The 2011 Sexy Shoes finalists will be on view and on sale at Saks’ “10022-SHOE” boutique in New York City and 11 other Saks U.S. stores. You can also purchase some of the Sexy Shoes on Saks.com. The winning shoes and runners-up will be announced in late October.
