Facebook Ads

Facebook finally figured out how to get me to click on an ad! It was finally something I was actually interested in, and not the stupid ones they show most of the time. Sure they show me ads occasionally for random shoes, but I am not interested in random shoes. I have specific taste. So if you want to get me to buy something, you better target it right. Just sayin'

This time they got it right: super cute Diane Von Furstenberg heels on sale.. just in time for holidays parties. Now all I need is a LBD to wear these fabulous shoes with!

Fancy Fancy...

Love this Dior Babe Small Shopper Bag. It's so cute and funky, but wow at $2,290.00 the price isn't!

Pucci

I have always loved Emilio Pucci. I just love the funky psychedelic patterns of his clothes, handbags, and shoes. But this is just awesome. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this Vivara Print Coated Canvas Tote!

Fall Trunk Shows

I can't believe there are already Fall trunk shows! We haven't even had a beach day yet! But that said - I can't ignore some of the cool clothes I'm seeing for fall. I love this M Missoni Metallic Striped Dress! And looks like something you could wear on a summer night in August, why wait until fall?? The colors and the sparkles are just great. Wish I had an event to wear this to.

Prada Handbag

Loving this new Prada Nappa Delave Tote for spring and summer.



Although at $1,895.00 I think I may have to admire this one from afar.

What a fun bag!

How fun is this Fendi bag the Artist Baguette? It's a white canvas bag that comes with 10 permanent markers to design your own look.

However a few things wrong with this: It could turn into a really expensive arts and crafts project - you better not mess up your drawing on the first try it's permanent, and oh yea - to draw your own bag it's gonna set you back 1,300 bucks. 1,300 bucks to draw your own bag???? It's a fun and cute idea, but shit I'm going down to Michael's craft shop - picking up some cheap little bag (I already have tons of markers) and drawing on that sucker for like $30!

Two-Toned Bags

First Prada comes out with the two-toned shoes and handbags like a year ago? I don't know the exact time frame, but it's been at least a year.

Anyway the look is kind of cool.. but now everyone is copying it.

Prada Bags:




Lamb knockoff style:


Maxx knockoff style:

UM can we say rip off?

'Cuz that what this appears to be. The other day I blogged about Prada's Bamboo/cork sandal. Today I get a catalog in the mail from Nordstrom and Enzo Angiolini has basically the same shoe!! Ok fine the top part is different, but the whole wedge is the same (bamboo / cork part). I have never seen a shoe with the bamboo part like that, and now I've seen 2 in the last week?! Plus everyone has been copying Prada's two-toned shoes/handbags lately - that annoys me.

Enzo's version:




Prada's version:

On the Fence

I can't really tell about these Prada Bamboo Wedge Sandals @ Barney's. Part of me doesn't like that the pattern on the Bamboo changes - I want a solid pattern - either one is fine. But maybe up close it looks better than what I'm getting from the photo. It looks like the bottom part is cork (which I love in shoes), but the description doesn't mention it at all. These are going to require further inspection at Barney's....

UM No Thanks

I love the ballet flat - super cute and looks great with skinny pants, capris, or skirts. I like the standard black, or even the cute metallic colors, but these Dolce & Gabbana Round Toe Flats take them too far - it's not really the color - it's the strange basket-weave pattern. Maybe they look much cuter actually on someone's foot.. or not... hard to tell. But from the photo, I'm not digging it.

Cute Patchwork Sandals

Loving these new Dolce and Gabbana Patchwork Sandals. Little bit on the pricey side ($895), but hey if you have that kind of money to spend... why not? They're pretty cute. Out of my price range for now.

Summer Sandals

I like these new Tod's sandals for summer. Perfect little black shoes, they look comfy and are all leather so no man-made materials that will make my feet sweat. Yuck!

Cute New Louboutins

Love these new Christian Louboutin Criss Cross Ankle Strap Platforms. I love cork in shoes - it's so comfortable to walk on. These are a bit too pricey for me right now though... I owe a lot on my 2007 taxes :(

Super Cute Outfit

I love this new outfit from Elie Tahari:

Wallpaper, or Pants?

Normally I love Elie Tahari, but these pants are just horrible. They look like wallpaper, or a lamp shade. What is the appropriate use for such pants? I don't want to wear these to bed, nevermind out in public. And they are linen - which really is just a pain in the ass. Definitely not what I was expecting from Tahari.

Why would someone

pay $750 for these Bottega Veneta sandals? First, I'm not a huge fan of flats (a girl likes to look tall) but second, they are just plain ugly looking - even if the leather is fabulous.

Maybe these were used on the set of Rome? Going to a toga party? These are the shoes for you...

I am so over winter

I am officially all set with winter. Well, let's face it, I was all set with winter before it even started, but now I am REALLY ALL SET. I don't want to see snow for at least another 10 months.

I'm sick of parking bans and fighting for a spot. Trying to get home 10 hours before predicted snow to actually *get* a spot. Sick of unbecoming footwear. Sick of cleaning off my car. Sick of winter coats. *Sort of* sick of cashmere sweaters (because seriously - who doesn't love cashmere? I just don't want to wear one for another 10 months).

I want green! On trees, the grass, on shoes! I'm sick of looking at drab empty trees. I am ready for some spring! And speaking of spring and green, how cute are these green patent wedges from Kate Spade?

Just when I thought...

Ugg couldn't possibly make an 'ugg'lier shoe - they surprise me again with the "Fluffie Thongs" at Saks.

WHAT is this monstrosity?

Designer footwear for Sherpas in the summer? Who wants to wear a carpet on their flip flop? Not to mention, wouldn't this be kind of hot in the summer? But regardless - they are just plain vile. um yes I'll take the flip flops that look like fozzy bear... not.

cute cute cute!

Too bad I already have a dress (a purple Diane von Furstenberg) and shoes (black patent mary jane Manolo Blahniks) for a charity event I'm going to on Saturday.. because if I didn't I would be very tempted to buy these Spring Collection 2008 Manolos and then go find a dress to match.

Super cute tote for Spring

I love this Salvatore Ferragamo hot pink patent tote for Spring.



The only problem for me with totes is that I *always* knock the thing over and every single freaking thing in the bag comes spilling out all over the ground. Which is really annoying to pick up, especially when I am in the car driving and the crap is rolling all over the floor. Maybe I shouldn't have so much shit, but that is why I carry a bag in the first place.
