a temporary emotion that is perfectly sincere.

i still want any of the miu miu shoes from the swallow collection; preferably either of these two, but i'm not picky...

a winter solstice.

fur, leopard, and velvet are what i need for this cold weather....

satisfaction is the death of desire.

i've been browsing around for similiar looking styles without the detailing on the toe....but, this ksubi pair trumps them all.

best to give praise where praise is due.

i am the new and proud owner of these beauties (i did buy the pair, opposed to just the one shoe). oh, jeffrey campbell...never have thumbtacks looked so appealing.

made for more than walking.

i'd like to make a wishlist; starting with a pair of these action boots. it's almost impossible to believe that nine west could imagine, let alone produce something such as this. anyhow, i give them praise.

running from the blind is not easy.

tis' a sin to covet, but i can not keep from lusting after these two items. that ring and those boots are exactly what i need for my wardrobe. i am making a promise to myself that when i travel to new york again..i will visit, bess. and i will also buy many beautiful pieces from, lia sophia.

walk this way.

ever since the last post i have been unbelievably busy. i apologize for my lack of activity, but maybe i can make it up to you lovelies by showing you these incredible shoes. "red by wolves" collections seems to place me in a coveting state as the seasons go by. i couldn't possibly settle for just one pair.

(re)jeweled.

yes, i am one of many who fell in love with the giuseppe zanotti /balmain heels when they pounded on the spring '09 runway. the balance between delicate and rugged is mere perfection.


but, at $1720, it is completely out of my budget...




aldo has designed a couple of their own versions. and now we have a more affordable way to achieve the look. the "smeal" (top) and the "molavi" (bottom) both ring up at $125. now they might not be the same piece of art that giuseppe zanotti/balmain has achieved, but aldo does come pretty close.

these heels from chanel's '09 cruise collection must be inspired by anyone who has ever used the exaggerated "i would kill for those shoes" phrase.

this bright idea of a shoe comes from the '08 pre-fall collection. the sequined goat skin sandal has a lightbulb in the heel that can actually give off light. i much rather prefer the black and gold version. the lightbulb set in the gold heel is just beautiful. unfortunately, i could not find this version.

Neither of these pair of heels are practical, but they sure are fascinating to gaze at. They would make for wonderful displays. they could be a smart investment.

a muse for shoes.

just like the collaboration with robert lee morris for jewelry; mary-kate and ashley's 'elizabeth and james' are collaborating with steve madden for what else; shoes of course. the line is expected to debut at high end global retails mid-2009. mka seem to be hitting all the right targets when it comes to expanding their "more affordable" line.

"we are excited to partner with steve madden to create the new elizabeth and james footwear line. with their proven experience in all aspects of design, production and distribution, we intend to take the contemporary shoe market to a new level," mary-kate stated.

and a new level you will take it, ms. olsen.
