Fashionable
So ... it's been a while since I've done a shoe post ... and these are THE perfect way to bring back shoes .. I low-key love fall because 1. the weather is awesome when its not raining because its not so humid. I love the brisk air in autumn .. and I LOOVVEE cute boots! In case you need a refresher, some of the MUST have for me in shoes are platform, 4 inch heels, and FUNKY!

Meet Raphael Young's Autumn/Winter collection.  I don't know who this Paris based designer is, but I am into it. He has a big fall collection too, but here are my 3 favs. 1. If I…

Fashion Friday: 3.4.10 – Score for the Wallets!!

Fashion Friday: 3.4.10 – Score for the Wallets!!

Lifestyle
So, anyone who knows me knows that my two favorite things are sales .. and even bigger sales. I believe that anything is worth buying on sale and if you really want something you should try to find it for cheap. Only true emergencies call for full price purchases... Does this make me cheap or fiscally responsible? I'm still working that one out. If you were to ever meet me (for those who haven't) and perhaps tell me that "Oh, those shoes are cute!!" I might respond, "Yeess!! and I got them on sale @ _____ store" It's a bad habit. I can't help it and it won't stop soon. What that also means is that I spend plenty of time hitting the pavement (aka the internets) searching for good…

Fashion Friday: 2.5.10 – Pasquale Fabrizio

Fashionable
SO, apparently a girl really can have her glass slipper. It's just going to cost her 7,500 dollars!!!!!!! Pasquale Fabrizio, who is this UBER talented "shoe cobbler to the stars" has designed these glass slippers. I have never heard of Pasquale, probably since I'm not a star, but according to laweekly.com He once built a three-legged monster costume for two 300-pound wrestlers. He fashioned a steel brace for the shared third leg, so that one wrestler standing inside the suit wouldn’t crush the other’s foot. He built up the calves of Angelina Jolie’s Jimmy Choo boots in Mr. & Mrs. Smith to make them thigh-high, and he swapped out the heels — 80 pairs at a time — so she could run around comfortably during stunts. He duplicated Muhammad Ali’s…

Fashion Friday: 1.08.10: Fendi Baby!

Fashion Friday: 1.08.10: Fendi Baby!

Fashionable
In the back of my closet there is (and don't judge me) a pair of Lucite heels .. they didn't cost nearly as much as this Fendi pair of heels, so imagine my shock when I saw stripper shoes could be so damn expensive. These Fendi Khaki colored wrap /  platform sandals are making my heart melt. that 2 inch platform takes some practice to walk on, its not for the weak. Trust me! And the heel, is listed at six inches. UM.. WHAT?? Nina Garcia says you shouldn't go over 4. I break that rule often, but SIX?? I'll eye from afar. The FF logo is on the lucite platorm, and they will cost you $1553. Wow.

Fashion Friday: 1.8.10 – Christian Louboutin Caged Booty

Fashionable
I am still on the fence about these Caged Boots I've been seeing all around. Something is just off about them, I guess its the whole . . .  shell thing?? But the shape and height of these boots is making me drool. I think I kinda love them! You know I'm a SUCKER for the platform. Christian Louboutin Coussin. Retail : out of my price range. HOT NESS:  4 Stars Height: 14 cm (i don't convert, sorry!).

Fashion Friday 12.04.09: Deja Shoe, AGAIN!

Fashionable
The other week I was browsing through Macy's and saw these Guess Boot, Elize style. I thought they were so adorable! I liked the combination of leather and nylon. And the rubber platform. Then it hit me why I thought they were so cute (besides the 4inch wedge heel). The only thing doesn't sell me is the logo on the side. I'm so not into being branded. I have a pair of boots just like them! well, not exactly but pretty damn similar from last winter. And they are definitely my FAVORITE winter boots. Comfy & stylish. The JO boot by BCBGirls. I got this boot last year during Black Friday weekend, and was in love! It wasn't love at first sight though, more of the love you have to…

Hot Sexxy Mama! Beyonce <3

Lifestyle
I really adore Beyonce, its sad that her music is going so far adrift from where my musical preference is going, but I still think she is a force. Check out these pics of her at Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece. She looks fabulous! I hope marriage makes me look as good! I'd be lying if I said I wasn't waiting to see what kind of video is going to emerge for Video Phone with Lady GaGa. I'm hoping its better than the Ego video, that one let me down! I <3 these bangs! And look how tan she looks! HAUTE!! And because no one is without fault. Those shoes do NOT work for me with that dress!  I've learned to always expect that one no-no from Tina Knowles..

I have never even heard of this person, but this ad made me want to know more. The power of ads is intense. Jeffrey Campbell is apparently a hot, new (or not so new its been like 9 years) Shoe God on the scene who doesn't cost 6 months rent. Peep his websites intro! I don't even like autoplay music, but it intrigued me. Dope Right?

Fashion Friday 10.23.09: Is this High Fashion?

Fashionable
Maybe I'm just not sophisticated enough for high fashion, but what is the appeal on this shoe? Like seriously? It can't be comfortable! I love the blue color, I love the detailing at the top. But the heel and the platform are killing me. First off, they are 2 distinct textiles. What the hell is that, a metal pipe anyway?? I'm so over the heel. And that sucks because I enjoy when heels are different, i.e D2squared 's lightning bolt heel, or even when Madonna wore the shoes with the gun as the heel. These, I'm not feeling. Thoughts?? OH, and they cost hella  lotta money since they are Jil Sander and I saw them on Global14.com with all the other "high fashion" shoes!

Fashion Friday : Boots! (again!)

Fashionable
Is there a such thing as too much of a good thing? I realized today I love fall, simply because I love all the different boots! I love leather and I love suede. I enjoy nubuck and canvas. I want knee high boots, but settle for calve length. I just love boots! These boots are cute, they are called Cashmere!  They are a combination of leather and sweater material. The only draw back is that I like a sturdier heel than the stiletto. I prefer the heel to be a little more stacked, but everything else is great! The heel is a fantastic 4 1/2 inches and the toe is squared off. I also love the buckles over the sweater material. These can be found at Bakers for 99.95. Affordable…

Fashion Friday 10.9.09: Coach Rain Boots

Lifestyle
Rain Boots (Wellingtons, in case you missed it last year).  I was addicted to these things, so obsessed with having a pair. It was mission to find some.  Apparently this year, I haven't outgrown that love for them. These are cute black &white Pixy boots from  Coach. I lusted after a pair of Coach rain boots last year when I had some extra cash, since everyone knows Macy's almost NEVER has Coach on sale. I tried them on, and of course, my calves were too big. Yes they fit, but there was no room for jeans or anything underneath. And of course, if its raining you want your jeans tucked into your boots. I eventually got a pair of stripped boots from Target (Don't deny Target is the GREATEST store…

I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Top Shop. It's a bit of a sensation I'd say, and these boots are definitely sensational!I'll probably only be able to get a pair if I get them specially made since I have HUGE calves. This boot is called the Britany2, and its an over the kneee boot that has a tight fit. Details? Nubuck (suede like material for those who don't know)4.5 inch heael (YYEEESSS!!) and approx 1inch platform (even better!!).  Absolutely Fabulous for the season!
