My New Valentino Studded Lizard Heels

So Mr. Diabolina knocked it out of the fashion park with my Christmas present this year.  Here he is telling the story. Yes, I may have gotten him liquoured up enough to do a video. One day he'll thank me for capturing his cutness on film.






Amazing shoes AND boy, right????

I'm one lucky bitch.

Year In Review: 2010 in Shoes

2010 was quite the eventful year. 

A new job, new adventures and new friends.

And apparently, I amassed NINE pairs of new shoes along the way.

1. Miu Miu

2. Prada (resale)

3. Alexander McQueen

4. Chloe (resale)

5. Saks Fifth Avenue

6. Elizabeth & James

7. Bakers

8. L.A.M.B

9. Topshop

Love each one of these pairs of shoes more now than I did when I first laid eyes on them. And that's my challenge to you in 2011: buy shoes for the life you want. I feel like the life you want materializes once you have the shoes you want ;)  Kiss!

Shoe Porn: December 2010

Joined my mom for a little stroll on Rodeo Drive recently. Mistake. BIG mistake.



Finally saw my studded Valentino kittens in person. They are exquisite. 
See my paw trying to paw them through the window?




Got me thinking about the other shoes that have caught my little lusty eye lately

TDF Chloe boots

My newest lover, Alexandre Birman

An oldie but a goodie that now does shoes, Diane Von Furstenberg

And good lord where has Charlotte Olympia been all my life???

Nomnomnom it up on Net-a-Porter and let me know what shoes you're loving.

Fall 2010 Inspiration: Accessories

I spent 12 years in a Catholic school uniform. That means I quickly learned jewelry, hair accessories, shoes, tights, book bags, lunch pails, frames for my Coke-bottle glasses were the only ways to stand out, to express personality, to feel unique.  Ironically, it was the nuns that created this accessorizing monster.




Today I firmly believe that one of the only thing that separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorize. I think truly stylish women don't necessarily dress better than the rest of us. They just know how to dress differently from the rest of us.  And that usually comes down to devoting a bit more attention to the details of a look.
 


Here's some eye candy to inspire you to have fun with fashion and embrace unique, stand out accessories. Remember it's not just about getting attention, it's about expressing your indiividuality.
