yellow diamonds in the light

any old time to keep me waiting

talk about showstoppers... these aida fish scale platform pumps from alexander wang are just ridic... from the texture to the color to the stacked stiletto, these babies will undoubtedly incite mad envy in lesser footed friends!

that's money honey

i. am. DUH-YYYYYING over proenza schouler's limited edition runway shoes available now at opening ceremony... i mean, shoegasm doesn't do this feeling justice... they are just so beyond... the curved stacked... the platform... the hardware details... i wonder what it would take to convince my roommate to cover my rent this month so that i could buy a pair (prices range from $750 or the hybrid saddle shoes to a cool grand for the leather booties)... perhaps the fact that only 6 pairs of each are available thus making them limited edition pieces of art that i (we?) could actually wear and not only enjoy by staring at a wall??! hmmm something tells me that argument will only work in theory in my sad little fashion obsessed mind....

cause nothin lasts forever and we both know hearts can change

oh alex wang you know i love you, but $400 biker shorts? biker. shorts. really? do they have magical powers? were they worn by axl rose in the november rain video? do they have a secret jet pack hidden in the panels thus allowing you to bypass sweltering summer subway stations? because then and only then, i just might be interested.

sole gluttony

had to clean out my work desk last week in preparation for a building move. was shocked (and a bit embarrassed) to discover that i had 14 pairs of shoes in there. 14! at work! not counting the numerous numerous pairs i have at home! will someone please tell me how it is that i feel i have no cute shoes to wear multiple times a week? (oh and a quick update on my first wardrobe purge of 2009- i got $30 from buffalo exchange for the few items they took. not great, but i'll take it! in fact, i've already spent it! not on more clothes though. on booze. ha.)
