Fun Bunny Headband

So cute!

I Am Chubby Bunny - $18

Sleeping amongst the clouds

How cute would this look in a nursery? A cloud lamp with a little raindrop shaped pull switch.

Classic wedge

I saw Jennifer Aniston wearing these last year.  These wedges will be a classic look for spring/summer, but they come at a hefty price--as celebrities are used to and where prices really mean nothing for them.

Stuart Weitzman - Alex

$365.00 at Zappos.com

These are a natural espadrille wedge sandal in the color "swamp" crochet.   I really like this taupey-nude color because it can go with pretty much any outfit for spring/summer--dressed up or down.  The ivory color is nice too.  Dresses, shorts, cropped pants, bikinis (for you whose bodies are poolside/beach ready! mine is not right now)... you name it! You won't expect these to go out of fashion season-to-season.  It's not too much on a "trendy train" with bright, fluorescent colors, or floral prints, or strange shapes.

There are a lot of "inspired by" shoes out there... For example, the regular go-to brands:

Steve Madden - Fantastik

$79.95

Bakers - Midtown

$62.00

Bakers  (by N.Y.L.A.) - Colbie
$62.00

Aldo - Connally

$50.00

(slightly lower heel height)

And the slightly more budget friendly:

from Ami Clubwear
$27.99

City Classified - Jojo
$26.99

Strangely attracted

For some reason I am strangely attracted to these wedges by L.A.M.B.  Maybe it's the combination of textures of smooth leather, canvas, and wood...and the obvious, fat stitch tacks.  And I strangely like the grey-nude combination of colors...  Is that a velco strap??

L.A.M.B. - Kapono

MSRP $325.00 (Currently on sale for $260.00)

Summer neutrals - 2011

Love, want, can't have.

Aldo - Marum

$100.00

Aldo - Trentinara

$100.00 (Sale til Sunday $74.98)
*These are reminiscent of the Jeffrey Campbell wedges I blogged way back when

Bakers - Rayne

$80.00 (currently on sale for $39.99) - only 8.5 left :(

House of Harlow 1960 - Nita

$240.00

And Bakers has a few sandals on sale I've been eyeing for awhile...but, it really isn't practical for me to be buying them :(

Lace me up!

My current obsession... I am dreaming about these shoes! I love the lace up & cut-outs and a tiny bit of raffia--perfect for spring!

BUT, I have nowhere to wear them for the next 2 years! Between being cooped up in my office and the classroom, there is not really any time to doll up... but I can dream, can't I?

Bakers - Nanci ($70.00)

Kind of reminiscent of Christian Louboutin "Miss Fortune"...

Wedge

I love these!! Perfect color and details... too bad they're $240! :(

House of Harlow - Fionna Wedge

Spring 2011 Shoes

Good morning everyone! I'm on MST (mountain standard time) now since my arrival in Arizona!

I have been on a "shoe restricted diet" as of late to save money so I have been trying to avoid tempting myself to buy new ones by researching for them. Aldo sent me an e-mail of their new spring nudes... and I am in love... with the Samella:

SAS--are these okay bridesmaid shoes for meeeee? hehehe... 

D&G Spring/Summer 2011

Ahhh! I'm so in love!

D&G's Spring / Summer collection

 Shoes & Bags!! Soooo cute!  I can't find them online yet though! (Kind of reminiscent of the Birken bag, no?)

Love these sunglasses! They remind of the ones I purchased in the Philippines (and broke when I got home to the US because they had plastic arms unreinforced by a metal bar).  I think they're going for about $200
(DG 2091)

Round solitaire, pave.

Thanks! lol. :P Someday.

Writing on the wall

Ugh! I want to paint several walls in my future home with this whiteboard paint from Ideapaint!

No more worrying about your kids drawing on the wall. Just wipe it away! And when they get older... you can do math problems, brainstorm, from wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling.  I think Rustoleum also sells something similar.  Prime with "magnetic primer" and you're good to go to sticking magnets and writing on your walls!

Oh shoes

Boots & shoes, shoes & boots: I so love-hate you right now!! My bank accounts cannot drain for your cuteness!! Dang cyberweek sales!! :(

Endless.com has 40% select Steve Madden styles today + free overnight shipping!!

 I want these Linderr boots!! T.T

ipod touch

I've decided to put the iPod touch on hold until May, when I decide if I really need it.  Right now, I'm leaning towards: not really.  It just might've been a cool tool for studying if I got into the program, but core classes wouldn't even start until my 2nd semester.

Soooooo.... sunglasses? And something else??? hehehehe... I don't know.

I'm still trying to justify it!!

Decisions, decisions

Tom Ford sunglasses or 32GB iPod Touch 4th Generation?

 

H by Halston

Wow! I am impressed and in major "want" mode for the new H by Halston collection for Bakers!!

Saving

I've been trying very hard to save money and not spend frivolously.  In fact, it's been 3 months and I haven't purchased any new shoes or clothing! It is hard, but I need to be more practical these days.  And it doesn't help that I am drooling over things I want because I can't stop browsing... new shoes, new tops, new sunglasses, new bags, new gadgets, ugh... I'll treat myself after Christmas. Maybe.

Shiny & studded

I want! :(

LOVE these booties!

Fall must have

Say hello to Les Khakis de Chanel

Vert  /  Brun  /  Rose

"Dusty," muted browns, army greens, and roses

Chanel nail polishes are known for their great lasting power and great opaque consistency.  $25 a pop is pretty expensive, but these colors are gorgeous!  I think they're sold out now, but you can probably buy them from Ebay, or try to locate some dupes.

Holes, Neatly

I really love the design of this dress! So unique and creative! I love the "off the shoulder," but not thing going on!

and this dress!

and this!

My pocketbook cannot afford... but I LOVE! Actually, I love just about all the stuff on StyleStalker!!

Obsessed

Currently obsessed with Sam Edelman and Jeffrey Campbell shoes!  ahhhhh!  "Affordable" price range, but definitely over my $100 & under budget!

i LOVE

and some old styles of Betsey Johnson and Harajuku Lovers wedges & espadrilles! which have been sold out, but I didn't know because I restricted myself from buying shoes :(

I confess. I love break your neck/ankle high shoes.  I'm almost 5'2" so I love sky high heels!
