Louis Vuitton Gets a Case of the Fugs

What. The. Fug?

Although the overall look is pretty cool, these shoes are a disaster. Who wants their feel to look 12 feet long?? I'm all for a sexy pointy toe, but super elongated pointed toes are never EVER flattering. Especially when paired with a little kitten heel. (Side note- the word "kitten heel" makes my skin crawl)



Anyone up for some waterskiing?

 Yikes!



What do you think??

Impatiently Waiting for Miu Miu

EVERY DAY I've been checking Vogue.com to see if the latest Miu Miu runway collection had been posted yet. Miu Miu is my current favorite as far as shoes go and I haven't been disappointed... until... today.

OH WHY MIUCCIA!? WHY??

 Not so bad you say? It gets worse.

 ????

I'm sorry and I HATE saying negative things about a designer I respect SO much and look up to immensely but I just don't have any positives here. I don't like the shape, the colors, the details.... I'm so confused!

These ones are the worst! Putty/tan/beige??? A MULE??? Oh say it isn't so!



Nobody asked you Sven.


I need a moment. Am I a shithead for talking smack on my shoe idol?? I need some Milano cookies and a glass of milk to dunk them.

Diapers Rule!

Yep. You read correctly... diapers rule. Well, they're ruling the runways at least. And maybe when I say diaper I really mean these shorts that kinda look like a slightly more flattering version of adult diapers.

If I was a really dedicated blogger I'd go buy a pair of Depends and model them for you for a compare and contrast. It's bad enough googling "women's adult diaper" You see some freaky stuff.

Anyway- see what I mean....

Trendspotting- Peek-a-boo Shoes!

If your feet have been craving a peep show they're in luck. If the Spring runways shows are any indication of what's to come (imagine that) then vinyl shoes are all the rage!

Dolce & Gabana's shoes were almost exclusively see through...


 These were my favorite and seemed to be the most forgiving for those with less than pretty toes...

They're equipped with little toe shields!

Macrame AND vinyl AND a woven heel/platform?? That's a whole lot of shit gong on. Imagine how foggy they'd get after a quick jog a-la Carrie Bradshaw. I always loved how she ran in her Manolos.
Anyway! I digress...

 Missoni. Oh Missoni... These are cuckoo crazy.

Little barber shop pole heel, mixed material flowers, striped print, mismatching colors. Serious WTF?

I'm LOVING these milky lucite glasses by Prabal Gurung ♥

Oh Versace. Always serving the fiercest of tranny hooker shoes.


Loving this ombre sort of spray painted bottom.

Plus I'm having a serious love affair with wedges right now.

Marchesa showed clear in mesh form...
A less sweaty way to wear the trend for sure.


And don't forget about these guys from my previous post.


Will you be hopping on the clear shoe bandwagon?

Vroom Vroom!



Love them or hate them, Prada's latest runway shoes definitely make a statement. "I like classic cars." 
That or "Look at my fancy ass Prada runway shoes. Neener neener neeeeeener!"  

Either way, they've grown on me since I started writing this post. First reaction? These are hideous! Especially the first pair. 
Yikes are we back in the 90's where I customized my flair legged Jnco jeans with flames going up the legs?? (true story) No thank you.
But now I'm seeing them as definite art pieces. They're pretty amazing (except the first one that I still hate) I love the brake lights on the back.  The chrome heels... the vintage car color palette. Great attention to detail. 


 Cute bag!

I love this one. It reminds me of my very first dream car. A vintage pink Chevy Bel Air...


What do YOU think?? Too crazy? Just crazy enough?
Do you like the idea of heels as art or do you prefer your art to hang on the wall?

I say it every season... Miuccia Prada is a genius. I am SO excited to see what she has in store for us with Miu Miu this season. She never disappoints.

London Calling!

I knew it!!! Some great shoes are already coming out of London Fashion Week :)

My homies at Burberry (I use the term homie loosely, it's a one sided friendship) showed some pretty awesome tribal inspired shoes



What a great color palette!


These remind me of something though.........
 ...Just sayin.


I love how the striped jacket is interpreted in this wedge...


 What a great woven shoe! So much work and such rich earthy tones. I love.


Looks like Charlotte Olympia worked with Matthew Williamson on some pretty great shoes. I LOVE the mixes of material and the colored lucite heels.



 They look a little heavy and more like Fall than Spring, but they're great nonetheless.

Excited for what's to come!!
