Good News!

I know a lot of you missed the boat on these Sam Edelman boots. You know- the Balenciaga knockoffs. Well, I guess they made some more! You can find them HERE and HERE.

Unfortunately, they are overpriced IMO, (about $200 more than the original price I got them for) but if you really want them- here's your chance. Get them while they last! As you can see, they look pretty much exactly like the real deal...

***UPDATE***
Heels.com is going to get them too!! My advice would be to wait and see what their price will be. I've never heard of either of the other two sites so they may be jacking the price up. I have no idea. I do trust heels.com for sure though. ;)

Gettin My Boot on

Hello! I was unusually excited to wake up to an overcast sky today. Why? Well, because I knew I could finally wear my new ChloƩ boots! Yippee!

These are my first pair of thigh high boots and I adore them. I always thought these kind of boots looked slutty and very Pretty Woman, but these for some reason are more sexy than slutty. More sleek than skank. They also fold down nicely for an over the knee look.
The leather is super soft and buttery and there is a gold accent on the inside of the heel. LOVE them.

I got them at Intermix and I can't find them anywhere online. :(

Fendi: The Good, the Bad and the Fugly.

Oh Fendi... What is going on?

Let's start with these amazing platforms. The good.
These are siiiiiiick! I mean, don't try these at home kids... these have some serious heels (6.5 inches!!!) and even with a substantial platform, the pitch is super high. Yikes.
BUT... thats why I love them. The higher the heels the closer you are to God, right? Ha!

SWOON!

The bad? Well, let's just say my grandma might like these. The color combo is kinda yucky and I haaaaaaaate these kind of heels. blah. Even though they are pretty high also, the curved heel is just so out of date IMO.

The straight up fugly?? While granny was trying on those Fendi's up there, grandpa lost control of his rascal and had an accident- his toupee apparently ended up on these booties.
Seriously? An animal had to die for these? Gross gross gross.

When I look at them I just can't help but think of one of these guys-
Eww.

Hey Stranger!

I've never owned a pair of Rock & Republic shoes but someone recently brought the brand to my attention and they have some seriously sexy styles!

I found this style... and on sale! Hello!

I love the mix of that techy fabric with satin and the exotic leather! And the pop of fire engine red lacquer on the heel... perfect.

You can find them here on zappos for $313 from $439. Not bad for Italian made shoes!


Hair Delema

A little off subject but I have been obsessing over this for 2 weeks now, ever since I went to visit my friend Amita over at the Louboutin boutique and saw her amazing amazing AMAZING new hair do.

She shaved a piece out of the side of her hair a la these ladies I found on the web-


It's so cool!! I'm willing to overlook the fact that it's Carmen Electra cause it's so cool looking.
But what do YOU think??
It is pretty extreme. Not necessarily the cut, but the grow out. That's the only thing that is stopping me at this point. That and I'm wondering if it looks as good without super long hair.

Opinions please! Thank you!

And Hello Haters...


Don't make me sick Stella on you!

I would like to address the "Anonymous" people that leave me rude and nasty comments. This is so silly of me to even pay you any attention but I'd just like to make a few points.

First- This is MY blog. Mine. I will write about how much I love my husband or any other subject that bothers you as much as I want. If you have a problem... GO AWAY. I can write whatever I want. You do not need to read it.

Second- I do not for one second think I am a model or that I am gorgeous. I post pictures of myself to show what I'm wearing and how I wear it. I realize that I am completely average on a good day so you can stop with the comments about how fat/ugly/unattractive I am. I get it. Though I did get a kick out of the "you look like Lady Gaga, but uglier" comment, and joke about it often with my friends.

Please don't get me wrong- I have no problem with negative comments about outfits or shoes. I expect them and honestly welcome them. I do however take issue with personal attacks on me. It makes you sound envious and honestly, pretty pathetic. Especially when you don't have the balls to leave your name.
I am not cocky about anything but my taste in shoes, which I am obviously proud of. That is what this blog is about. Shoes. So talk all the shit you want about how tacky you think I am or whatever- but stop with the nastiness.
I will from now on delete mean anonymous comments. If you leave a name/url for me to judge you by- I'll go ahead and leave them up.

Ok- rant complete. I love you all so much! Thank you for reading weather you love me or hate me or something in between. It's been over a year now since I started this and I really love writing it.

XOXO

Hello Friends!

I'm back from Maui and back already in action! I had a day full of meetings today and am starting on my next Betsey Johnson and Harajuku lines for Summer 2010! Yippee!

I took these photos the night before leaving- so I'm sort of cheating by posting week old pictures, but you guys haven't seen them yet. ;)
My tan is ridiculous- I'm super dark for being gone all of 4 days and I'll post some more tomorrow but I just wanted to show you these shoes! Another great sale find at Intermix! Yay!




(top- F21, shorts- J.Crew, shoes- Por La Victoire)

They're Pour la Victoire and I think they're the perfect shade of neutral. They're strappy and opened up enough to wear now, and a great transition into Fall :)
They have them HERE at Bloomingdales in black, and HERE at heels.com in green or cognac.

Here's a similar style from Por la Victoire that I absolutely LOVE and am contemplating buying. (also found on heels.com)



So cute, right?? That great neutral color with a pop of color! Yes please!
