Git Yer Long-John's On

It is wrong that I feel winter is right around the corner? Yes, it's August, my thoughts are naturally turning to the blustery cool of winter and so I start shopping accordingly. Maybe I'm just looking for an excuse?

Four-Eyes

Confession time. I don't need glasses. I got laser eye surgery two and a half years ago and my vision is better than 20/20, but my benefit provider doesn't need to know that. I thought I'd like some glasses to wear as an accessory occasionally and, like anything else I buy, I wanted it to suit me and yet be a respected name. As it turns out, the "accessory" glasses I picked cost more than any of the frames I bought when I actually needed them.

Black Ribbon

I'm a fairly recent Lanvin convert...where has it been all my life? Well, who can say why we'd never connected before but I'm sold now. This pretty thing seals the deal.

Candy-Coated

I probably don't understand this because I'm not fashion-guru-ish enough, but I've heard that Christian Louboutin shoes are uncomfortable, tight, and completely impractical (that's a given). That's all fine and dandy and I frankly don't care about any of that, but what's the point of the pain if you can't even tell they cost you a pretty penny? What's that? It's not the commoners you want to impress...its the ones who know it is CL. Okay, I get it.

Brass Knuckles

So I'm not a clutch person. Not sure why that is...I'm more a giant-ass shoulder bag kind of person. I feel that constantly having it in hand would get it all sweaty-palmed and since it would expensive (naturally - this is me we are talking about) that it would get discoloured. Am I grossing you out? I don't mean my sweat is chemical-y or whatever...eh, I'm digging my grave here. Anyway, onto the sweet, heavy-metal look of this brass-knuckle type clutch from my fashion hero.

These Go Well With a Side of Ruffle-y Socks

I've been tromping around in my new Loeffler Randall shoes shown in
this post and I must say I am impressed! The shoes are gorgeous, comfortable, and best of all, Italian. I might just toss my whole lot of shoes and re-buy only Italian shoes...it would at least give me something else to do. Please borrow me your credit cards.

Silhouetta

I like the skirt on this skin-hugging dress...the cut, the shape, the flow. This is my last gush about A.McQ for a while as I really need to find something new to prey on. That is, of course, until he unleashes another undeniably fabulous collection on us and we all are blinded it awe. It's been known to happen.

Warm Yet Cold

I think its great when designers pair a barely-there summer shirt with a scarf. Yes, scarves are fashionable, but functional with a sleeveless shirt? I'd wear it.


I still like polka dots.
