P.S.

Did you notice that I changed the name of my blog from "The Shoe Girl" to "Confessions of a Shoe Girl"?
Well, I did. So don't be confused.

A Shoe Storage Suggestion...



These clear plastic shoe storage boxes are my new favorite way to store my shoes. My old favorite way was my 300 sq ft shoe closet in my condo, but that is obviously not an option anymore.
These are easy to stack and see-through, so it's easy to see what's inside without digging. 

You can get them in packs of 20 for $35.80 (or 1.79 a piece) which is a great deal! 

Please ignore the totally heinous shoes they photographed inside the box. They obviously aren't "shoe people". 

Interesting...


I saw these RUPERT SANDERSON boots while browsing net-a-porter and thought they were very interesting. They remind me of like, a black opened up shirt with a white shirt underneath. Is that weird? haha

I think these would look really sexy on the foot and the effect of the two layers would probably make an ankle look smaller. I love this trend of oversized booties, a-la-YSL. I think its a great silhouette for Fall and I want to try one out.

I went to the YSL store and tried their oversized shaft bootie and it was to DIE for. Too bad the price would cause me to miss a mortgage payment. They are super sexy as well.

Oh Posh...




She'll do anything for fashion. Check out these crazy heel-less boots!
When reader Elaine sent these in I thought maybe they were a joke. Maybe someone photoshopped the heels out?

Nope. These Antonio Berardi PVC boots are the real deal. $6,000 worth of PVC in fact. (PVC is a type of plastic- not leather- sometimes called pleather) I can't imagine that wearing over the knee PVC could in any way be comfortable. There's NO breathability to this fabric at all. Maybe she uses them as a weight loss tool? Who knows. If you look closely though, you can see "fog" on the outside of the boot from her sweaty sweat. Ich.

Crazy?? I think so. I can walk in some pretty high heels, but these? I kind of doubt it. Point, set match- Posh. Congratulations bitch, you have David Beckham and crazier heels than me.
