Thursday Quickies...

BOLLOX! Been SO damn busy! But not too busy to sweat these GORGEOUS blue patent pumps:

($395, Sergio Rossi, Footcandyshoes.com)

Gorgeous! Perfect height and amount of toe-pointiness!

($38.50, Delias)

I've been on a bit of a blue binge lately and drunk-shopped this last night. (Whoopsers!)

($29, Smith & Hawken)

Um, I really don't NEED a glass gourd. I don't even need a real gourd. But this is the kind of cute decorative thing I'd imagine people who are REALLY good at seasonal decorating would use to trick out their garden, and it sorta makes me wish I had a garden to the begin with. A garden that someone else tended to, of course.

And, in more un-fashionable news:

+ PUPPY AND KITTY TIME!

Monday Mortses!

A few selects to start your week off right... by encouraging you to gouge your eyeballs out of their sockets!

(Apprx $163, Topshop)

I mean... that's just... a lot of patent. Red patent, no less. No really... there should be less of this.

(Apprx $132, Topshop)

Ooh! The Chewbacca look = HUGE for Fall 07. Honestly, the only thing worse than real fur is horrendously cheap-looking acrylic fur. Can you even fathom how ratty this thing would look at like 4AM Sunday morning after a smoky pub crawl? Classy!

Speaking of classy...

($26, Asos.com)
Oh, Sienna. What have you done?

(Adidas)

Mmm. Nothing says "sexy" like tight elastic bands squeezing the most universally flattering part of every woman's thighs! Add in some cargo pockets to highlight the sausage-casing effect, and it doesn't really get much sexier than this, ladies!

The Most Perfect Patent White Wedding Heels

($55, Nadia Grilli, Yoox.com)

Remember when Jermaine Stewart said "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off (To Have A Good Time")? Well, that was definitely the type of lie boys tell because they want to take off their clothes with other boys. But you most certainly do not have to spend the equivalent of a down payment on a new car to get a pair of perfect shoes for your wedding, mkay? If these patent white peep-toe pumps made any sort of sense with my dress, they'd be mine mine mine. Maybe they're perfect for you?

Patent And Wood Pumps, Por Favor

($44.95, Exchange By Charles David, Solestruck.com)

I love how Danish Modern these stacked patent platform heels feel. Shoes as furniture! At Ikea prices!

Fergie's Black and Orange Patent Jimmy Choos = Full-On FIERCY!

Honestly, I'm like meh about Fergie. Like, live your life Fergs, I'll live mine, best of luck, whatevs. But I DO EFFING LOVE these black and orange patent Jimmy Choos she just wore to the March of Dimes 34th Annual Beauty Ball in NYC the other night.


IF I could afford Jimmy Choos (I cannot), I'd wear these with some sort of black one-piece jumpsuit, sorta similar to this Free People one, perhaps:

($88, Free People)

Except minus the flowy pant, PLUS the... TOP THAT DOESN'T SHOW GRATUITOUS BREASTAGE.

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For Paul Smith Heels!

Seriuosla Janola, what's not to love about these fun Paul Smith heels in yellow patent leather? I love the Pantone-y piping that keeps them from looking too Eastery egg-y, and the whimsical curved heel.

($198, Paul Smith, Zappos)

Fashion Week Street Style Spotting: Naoko In Marc by Marc Jacobs Patents & Unearthen!

Before I hit the Richie Rich show this past Wednesday, I went to the Vivienne Tam presentation in Soho (photos coming soon!), and while the pieces were radiant and stunning, I couldn't help but notice this girl's fantastically fun white patent leather shoes:

They're Marc by Marc Jacobs, and they were so freaking cute that I had to run up to her -- her name is Naoko, by the way -- and snap some photos. AND, when we were talking, I realized she was wearing an Unearthen crystal necklace -- I've been lusting in my heart for those for a fortnight:

($300, Unearthen, Bonadrag.com)

There's an orange one on Bonadrag that's KILLINK me softly!

Oh, so but the best thing about Naoko, aside from her great style? After she saw my Blackberry wallpaper, which is this:



She emailed me THIS:


SWEET! I love crazy cat photos like I love a mini horse! Thanks again, Naoko!

Pee EsS: Someone in Pakistan found FashionBinge by searching new and fresh fucking style." HA! Not sure if "fucking" was meant as a verb or an adjective modifying style, but either way, mission accomplished.

Binge Lust: Office's Grey Patent Platforms

Ridiculously high, absolutely impractical, completely want!

(Apprx $109 USD, Office.co.uk)

They remind me of the red patent Lanvin heels I want, but way, way cheaper, and slightly less FM-i-er in grey!
