It’s important in the New Year to re-evaluate our sense of style and to learn from mistakes of yesteryear. And some “fashion statements” really must go. Pretty and Poor listed on her blog many of the pet peeves I have when it comes to fashion flops (hate drawn-on eyebrows). For a rundown of what other [...]
Anna Sui for FitFlop “Shakoha” Boots, $195
These boots were recently featured in W Magazine…Fashion +Function= Fantastic! Or, so the product description claims. These new boots are a collaboration of legendary designer Anna Sui and FitFlop. Despite the fact that I’m still conflicted about the effectiveness of FitFlops to “tone and trim your legs”, I do [...]
These shaggy style steppers were designed by Ricardo Tisci and shown on the runway at Givenchy during Paris Fashion Week ‘09. Now I understand that high fashion is all about being over the top to keep things interesting. I just hope that we don’t see shoes like this make it into mainstream fashion…EVER. Not only [...]

The ‘Miami Vice’ shoe, originally made of actual gun casings, was first seen [...]
While I can appreciate couture shoes, this Alexander McQueen creation doesn’t do it for me. I think there are just too many different things going on - three tongues, lacing, zipper, contrast stitching, high stiletto heel and bootie shape. Not to mention, the price tag reads $1,104.00 at Zappos Couture. But don’t just take my [...]
There’s something about this shoe that attracts me to it, but at the same time I don’t think I would wear it. I admire the mixing of two very different materials (leather and satin) to create a unique texture, but that, coupled with the contrasting colors, seems just a bit much. I do love the [...]
Chcek out these kicks-inspired heels, which range in style from casual to high-end. Do you like this trend, or would you rather stick to wearing kicks to the gym and manolos for a night out on the town?
Anne Michelle These sneaker style high heels have a 2 and 1/4 inch heel and come in a fun [...]
