The Best City Walking Shoes

When in NYC this last week I learned many things about myself, my bff and fashion. Lesson 1: While ballet flats are uber stylish, they aren’t the best for pounding the Manhattan pavement for hours on end. The Globe and Mail, Canada’s answer to The New York Times, recently recommended ballet flats as a comfortable [...]

How to Buy Cheap, Designer Shoes

After watching Sex and the City 2 for 2.5 hours last weekend, I came out with two thoughts: SATC should officially retire and where can I buy those gorgeous. designer shoes at affordable prices? In the last year, to my bank account’s chagrin, I have begun collecting Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik shoes.  I am [...]

Oxford Shoes: Not as jolly as England

What do you think about the new Oxford shoe trend?  When I was 8, I wore these very shoes to dance my little uncoordinated heart out in jazz class.  I am uncertain how I feel about wearing them now that I am grown-up and more into chair dancing, rather than jazz dancing. In addition, I [...]

Designer Style on the Cheap: Valentino Lace Pumps

These Valentino Sculpture Lace Pumps are to die for.  I certainly appreciate couture clothing for being works of art, but these shoes could be showcased at the Musee D’Orsay tomorrow!  Can you guess how much they cost?  As I said to a friend yesterday…if you have to ask, you can’t afford them.  At $4700, these [...]

Spring Must Have: Wedge Platforms

Today I bought new shoes for my car (aka tires).  I decided my car shouldn’t be the only one with a spring in her step, so I bought myself new shoes too! In the last couple of Frugal Friday posts, I wrote about two different pairs of t-strap platforms and realised how much I too [...]

Love Your Louboutins

Last summer, while on holiday in Chicago, I splurged big style on a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes. I loved them so much that when I flew home I carried them as hand luggage and didn’t dare stow them above in cabin baggage. Instead, I tucked my shoes below my seat, safely nestled in their [...]

Oh Manolo You Didn’t!

I heart Manolo Blahnik shoes and have a dedicated section in my closet for my growing collection.  However, when I received an email from a certain department store touting all the trendy ways to dress denim, I was skeptical.  I firmly believe denim should be reserved for jeans, jackets, skirts and the occasional top.  I [...]

Valentino Spring Summer 2010

The Spring Summer 2010 Valentino show was full of  nude, gray, rose, lavender, and gold hues.  Critics were skeptical of the choice of colour pallette but fell in love with the design house’s collection of bags.  I personally loved the use of muted colour to showcase the delicate fabric and intricate design of each piece.  [...]
