Shoes For Sale!

Time to bite the bullet. I think I've been talking about this for 2 years now but I am SO lazy I just cant get to it. Here are some shoes I will be offering up for sale. They are good shoes that are in need of new loving homes. I'm running out of room in my house and out in the garage so I need to clear some space.
I'm an 8 1/2 and my shoes are usually 8's, 8 1/2's and 9's... there are a few exceptions, but now many.

Harajuku Lovers, never worn (8.5)

Spring Fever!

Spring is coming I can feel it! And thanks to a few of my favorite runway items... I can see it too!

I am so happy and lucky to have my two favorite Spring runway shoes (posts comingsoon!!) and one of my favorite Spring accessories. This pink collar by Miu Miu is so dang cute I just had to! I can't afford a whole top form Miu Miu so I figured if I at least got the collar it would bring some Miu Miu runway to every outfit!! Add a cotton candy lollipop and a matching pink hair clip in and I've officially got Spring fever!

(collar- Miu Miu, sweater and skirt- BP, socks- Betsey Johnson, shoes- Harajuku Lovers)

Nom nom nom...

A Beauty in My Shoes!

I'm always so happy to see fellow bloggers in my designs. ESPECIALLY when they are super fantastic bloggers!

Gala Darling is always working it and when I saw her recent post in her new Harajuku Lovers shoes I was giddy! Look how adorable they are on her!!

I love that she's wearing the heart shaped buckle in the front... VERY Harajuku ;)

Here's a close up of the shoes...

Love love love.

THANKS Gala Darling for letting me use your gorgeous photos!!

If you guys have any links to YOU in a pair of HL shoes I'd love to see!!

When Water Attacks!

STORM WATCH 2010!

Stupid rain.

It was only sprinkling when I got dressed and I felt like a smart ass when I pulled these shoes out. "I'll put on my rain pumps" I chuckled to myself...

Good traction on these babies. Talk about non-slip, right?

Then came the rain...

Time for a little change of clothes.

I love any excuse to wear my Harajuku Lovers Rain boots. I hardly ever wear shoes I designed because for some reason it feels pretty cheesy, but these are so cute and technically I didn't "design" them cause kick ass Jolie designed the print on them.

ANYWAY...

I guess the rain isn't so bad as long as I'm prepared and my hair is covered. ;)

Pretty Please with a Bow on Top

Yesterday my friends and I had brunch and did a little gift exchange. Since 6 out of 8 of us were a size 6, I brought a pair of Harajuku Lovers samples that I love but never got made.

I wore my favorite sweater as a dress and my new Yokoo Minnie bow in cranberry. I'm telling you guys, I'm obsessed with these. They make every outfit cuter. ;)

They'd make really great holiday gifts and are totally adjustable so they'll fit anyone!

(sweater dress- Betsey Johnson, bow- Yokoo, tights- bebe, boots- Harajuku Lovers)

Running Around

Lots of errands today! I just stole these shoes from our editorial closet at the office yesterday- New Harajuku Lovers mary janes! I don't think they're out yet but I'll let you know when they are. :)

Anyway- if you hadn't noticed a trend with my wardrobe lately, take a peek.

Am I becoming BORING and PREDICTABLE? Oh no! Look- I'm wearing like, the same outfit everyday? Weird. I'm obsessed with these skirts though. Thank you Brass Plum. Skirts and Summer. It just makes sense.

SIDE NOTE! These Harajuku Lovers flats are on sale at Heels.com! I love them and might actually BUY them because I never got them :( booo. They were featured in Teen Vogue and a bunch of other mags this season. YAY!

Matching my Puppy

Stella inspired me today. Black and white with a touch of pink (eyeshadow). She's growing up so fast I can't believe she's already 4.5 lbs! I know that sounds like nothing but when we got her she was a teeny tiny 2 lbs. So cute!

I'm not a big logo fan but of course I'll make an exception for my Harajuku Lovers thongs. ;)

Hot Child in the City

Dang it's hot today! Off to LA to find the last of the great shoe bargains!

Who says you can't wear suede boots in the summer?? I say boots of the ankle variety are just fine. Paired with a pair of ripped up cut-offs? No problem.

I love this necklace! I found it at Urban and it reminds me of the stuff that was going down the runway at Givenchy.

Excuse me while I mop up the drool...

(tank and necklace- Urban Outfitters, shorts- Forever21, boots- Harajuku Lovers)

Home Again!

I had to make a VERY last minute trip to China and just got back last night! As you know, China has blogger blocked, so I was unable to sign in, so thanks for being patient! :)

Ahhhhh it's good to be home and out of the heat and humidity of China! I got all my work done and I'm really glad to be outta there, especially since it hadn't even been a month since my last trip!

Last night Ben and I went to see Brüno and I left with my cheeks hurting and my stomach feeling not so good. Cheeks hurting from laughing so hard and stomach turning from all the full frontal male shit and inappropriate humor. I hoped that he would have more jokes to play on the fashion world, but was bummed to see that there were only a few. I loved how Borat poked fun at middle America and wish that Bruno did the same to knock some high and mighty fashionistas down a peg or two.

Ben's favorite moment was the anatomically correct pink knit outfit he wore... just see the movie and you'll know what I mean.

Anyway- I meant to blog about this before but was RUDELY interrupted by my job sending me away, and now I'm too late- but here it is anyway. Kitson had a whole window for Harajuku Lovers including (YAY) the footwear, which they do not carry. Weird, yes. But hey, it completed the look of the window display and got people asking about the shoes. :)

The mannequins were dressed as Love, Angel, Music, Baby, and of course, G. They are dressed in head to toe Harajuku Lovers and I think they look adorable. Good job to my dear friend Jolie for putting it all together! Yippee!

It's good to be home and back to blogging!

4th of July Getaway

Ben and I decided to get away for the weekend since our town gets a little out of hand for the 4th of July. So it was off to Palm Springs to stay at the beautiful Viceroy hotel. I went on a little mini shopping spree and bought most of these clothes at Nordstrom in their Brass Plum dept. Definitely one of my favorite places to shop for pretty cheap basics. 

(dress- BP, wedges- Chanel, tote- Goyard, glasses- Ray Ban)

(tank- JCrew, skirt- BP, shoes- Christian Louboutin, hat- Meilsa)

(skirt and tank- BP, shoes- Chanel, tote- Celine)

(onsie- vintage, shoes- Harajuku Lovers)

So I'm obviously obsessed with my new hat. I thought that it would be the perfect Palm Springs accessory! There's this awesome little hat store over at the Lab in Costa Mesa called Arth. They have some seriously great hats for guys and girls.

Anyway- just wanted to show you my poolside wardrobe lineup. The weather was beautiful if not a little too hot. The hotel was a perfect getaway and I recommend it to any of you who love to relax and have a great laid back vibe around you. We met some really cool people from LA and everyone was super friendly and sweet. We can't wait to go back!
