Archive for the ‘shoes’ Category

Growing up I remember looking forward to the HUGE Toys ‘R Us circular that would come in the morning paper after Thanksgiving.  I would go through it marking anything and everything I wanted. Unfortunately I also had to face the reality that my parents would not get me EVERYTHING, so I would guide them through my holiday wish list with a key.  It had these categories:

1. Want 2. Need 3. Want but don’t Need.   4. Need but can live with out.   5.  Need and cannot live without. 6. Absolutely have to have and cannot live without.

This season I don’t need these Paige Cuff Frye Boots, but I want them badly.

You can deposit money into my paypal account if you’d like to make a contribution (e-mail me and I can set that up for you). Or you can go here.. and check out my Urban Outfitters holiday wishlist.

Feel free to add your wishlist in the comments section. Who knows, maybe Santa reads this blog.

The lighter side of fashion: crazy shoes!

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

It’s pretty easy to go off the deep end when it comes to fashion. You know, the Devil Wears Prada or Vogue side of things that’s just a little over the top for my taste. I prefer my fashion with a little bit of self-deprecating humor.

Or, in the case of these shoe collections, a LOT of self-deprecating humor. The crew at ShoeMi, a blog dedicated to…you guessed it, shoes, has put together two collections of the craziest shoes from around the world. And some are truly a sight to behold. Unfortunately, they haven’t posted since June, so I’m wondering if they’re still running the place. Anyone know?

Regardless, part I and part II of The Craziest Shoes from around the world are both still available, so check them out while ya can!
