Shoes, shoes, shoes!Posted on October 5th, 2008 @ 11:51 am
Today is all about shoes (sorry, I’m on a shoe kick!), so I thought would feature a variety of very dfferent, but very awesome shoes!

Guess “Carrie” pump
I love this type of high heel, and the snake skin texture. Unfortunately, it can’t be seen much but I love the gold inside!

MIA Gigi MaryJane pump
I LOVE Maryjanes, and the added height of this one makes it even better in my opinion.

Steve Madden Kobraa Ballerina Flat
Flats are always a necessity, and I’m a sucker for anything metallic.
What do you think of the shoes featured?

To me, knee high boots really say “Autumn” and are the perfect way to ring in the season, by you know, diversifying your shoe portfolio.
I recently did this, and can’t wait to put them to good use, especially since now the weather is turning colder.
The boots I got?
Dollhouse Loomy Boot (Black)

Haha, they look like something I totally WOULDN’T wear, but surprisingly I love them. In addition to classic black, they come in brown and plum. I’m also going to feature some other great boots.
Steve Madden Tianna Boot (Blue)

I LOVE these boots. They come in other more neutral colours, but I think this electric blue is so perfect for the type of boot, nothing else will do.
Allison Floral Rain Boots

I had to include rain boots, because in the west, Fall (and most of winter) is filled with grey, overcast, rainy days that seem to go on forever! I love this boot’s adorable, handdrawn look and pretty colours. It would definitely brighten up a rainy day!
What boots are you breaking out for Fall?
P.S, if you’re interested in anything featured here, they can be found on Zappos.com or Amazon.com, along with another bazillion to die for shoes. I wish Amazon.com shipped to Canada.

Today’s FFF feature is Houndstooth! I lovelovelove houndstooth, especially on coats. I’ve seen it around a lot recently, on scarfs, hats, sweaters, coats and even shoes. It’s a really distinguishable print and is a classic. Here’s a look at some clothing/accessories featuring houndstooth:

Wool Houndstooth Coat from Fredflare.com

Houndstooth scarf, Wet seal
Houndstooth rain boots, Target (Totally awesome!)

What do you think of the houndstooth pattern in fashion? Do you like houndstooth in general?

Today, since it certainly seems like Fall, and Fall is approaching, I thought I’d showcase the “Fall 2008″ trends. These trends among others were featured at the NYC Fashion Week earlier this year. I’m pretty sure these trends won’t show up in the clothing I can actually afford yet, but it’s fun to get an idea of what’s going in the high fashion world. So let’s go!

Trend #1: Peaked/Padded shoulders
Oh my god, is the padded shoulders trend from the eighties making a return? Say it isn’t so. These are of course a little more classy then the padded shoulders of the pastel pantsuit of the day, but nevertheless, I see the inspiration..
Trend #2: Flapper
In my opinion, this is a trend that could produce a lot of cute stuff. I love the tiny dresses of the flapper style and their beautiful details such as the beading.
Trend #3: Plaid
I am super stoked on this. I love plaid and think it works great on the dress seen here.
Trend #4: Western/Native American inspired
I really love how well they’ve translated this into an entire outfit. I love the fringe on the dress and boots. Speaking of the boots, I want them. What a beautiful colour of blue!
Trend #5: One shouldered Evening Gown
I love this style of dress. They really make a statement while the shiny slate colour looks so elegant. I love how they’re off the shoulder and how poofy and lightweight the dress looks.
Wow..there is definitely some interesting stuff in the Fall season! I like the majority of what I have featured here. What I would also like to see: Houndstooth/Animal prints (what a surprise!). Do you like the Fall 2008 trends or are they way off the mark? Please share!

Let’s get comfyPosted on August 26th, 2008 @ 11:58 am
I forgot to mention, yesterday while at the mall I tried on some uggs. The real UGG Australia ones.. and OMG. They are so ridiculously comfy it’s unbelievable. I felt like I was walking on a cloud. Even if they are considered ugly, they’re too good to pass up. I plan to get some semi soon, in time for the cooler weather (not that it’s warm right now or anything..) I’m looking round the internet to see if I can get them cheaper then buying them in the stores but so far, with the cost of shipping I don’t save anything whatsoever.
But seriously.. if you haven’t already, try some on and see for yourself (the REAL ones!).
