My first pair of high heels (3+ inches) ever are these Carlos by Carlos Santana Trust shoes. (I believe Guess actually came out with something similar a couple years back). What drew me to these shoes were the criss crossing straps and the heart charm -- it's that extra touch of girly-ness that I loved :P

To date, after having owned and worn many pairs of heels, I have to say this pair is by far the most comfortable. Kinda surprising I know, given the height. Sometimes I feel like I can almost run in them!

I also like how the silver isn't one-dimensional. The python-like print gives it a nice texture. I don't know if you can tell from the left image, but the heel is actually a shiny metallic silver. I hardly noticed when I bought the shoes, but over time, I wonder if it's a bit too much. Oh well, nothing I can do about it now.
