Loubous on outnet!

Ok I'm in love with Christian Louboutin Shoes and they are on my 101 things - in that I must own one this year :-D

The theoutnet.com currently has these on sale and they are gorgeous! Which to pick???

1. Rosazissimo satin sandals - nicely sold out but gorg!

2. Altadama astrakhan platforms - love love the height! Also sold out. Damn!:-(

3. Papilipi satin pumps - really like the butterfly effect - this is still available! Can i squeeze into a 38? Lollll

4. Hercule leather pumps - Now this I like cos of the embellishments - the studs are fierce! Many sizes left.

5. Fully Prive tag sandals - I absolutely love these - the shape and the tortoiseshell patent leather - soo hot! Not really my size - why???? :-(

6. Mary-Jane pumps - these are very cute.

7. Dracullette suede pumps - These are also cute and quite possibly the only ones left in my size - why??? :-(

Out of those left in my size the only ones I quite like are these and just because of the heel. Click on the picture to check out the other views.

Guessing its not yet my time. My favourite ones are the Prive wedges and the Altadama Astrakhan platforms. Some time this year just you wait - loll - even if it has to be my birthday/christmas/it's summer buy.

Zanotti Zebra Shoe & Pierre Hardy

Saw these on one of my favourite shoe blogs ever - A woman and her shoes. Aida does awesome profiles of some weird and wonderfully but utterly unique and beautiful shoes.

These Zanotti shoes just called out to me.

I like animal prints and stripes. Plus I also like the way they looked on the model.

Also saw these which I think are quite interesting. I swear I must have been a tall skinny wench with endless legs in a past life cos my attention keeps straying to items that would suit those kind of people. Much like these Pierre Hardy shoes ...

Kenneth Jay lane - Audrey Pearl Necklace

I came across this website on Onada's and checked it out. I like KJL's stuff and have a bought a couple on my wardrobe. But I especially love love this.

It is soo elegant and tasteful and I just want it! A little pricey for my blood right now but here's hoping.

Dream Bag - Heloise

I've been in love with this Chloe Heloise for about 2 years now.


3 Chloe sample sales in and it's yet to appear but here's hoping. Last sample sale I ended up buying this bay bag in the yummiest purple colour ever. It is soo rich it is almost black. Plus it has a slightly metallic hue to it. I love it soo! It was my 4mths too early birthday present to myself. The instant the Heloise makes it to sample sale prices - hello!

Ebay - BCBG Dresses

Woohoo! Just liberated a dress from the auction block on ebay ;-)
I fell asleep before the actual end time so just glad my bid went through. Isn't this yummy?


And from the back



Sexy sexy black dress - cant wait to get it.

Now there's just one more dress I want from Ebay - that I really want. Probably not going to bid for blue/grey carrie-esque one. What do you think? It will make a lovely simple white summer dresses and I love those!

Kurt Geiger

I got a very helpful email from KG saying oh we noticed you haven't shopped with us in a while. To welcome you back - here is a 20% discount code -

To claim your 20% discount, enter KGGREY09 at the checkout.

This offer is an online exclusive, it is not available in any Kurt Geiger free standing store. The offer will expire on 6th June 2009 and is available on full price items only, excluding Fashionistas by Kurt Geiger and UGG Australia.

Well I looked at their collection and i saw a few pieces I like. I'm still waiting for the fashionistas to go on sale though. Way too pricey right now.



1. Fashionistas Nolita - love love this.


2. Tribeca


3. Bermondsey - purely love the back


Others - the "I can wait for them to into the sale before I think about it" shoes.

1. Lana - cute flats with a nice embellishment, open toe, and gorgeous colour!2. Fashionista Mayfair - like the detailing in front

3. Huston - they've had these for ages. Decided to go for alternative black shoes before - can't decide if i need another pair of black shoes - considering i dont wear them that often.

4. Estrella - very loubou-esque


5. Juicy -Laney: - I normally dont like juicy couture anything but these are interesting. Guess it's the nautical elements i like.

6. Carvela - Gerry
Now these would get it any day - has the front detail like the Nolita and i definitely prefer the heel but they are slingbacks! Slingbacks and I generally dont get along. Plus it doesn't have the yellow wow factor :-(

8. Home - same slingback issue with this :-(

BCBG Dresses

Now this is another dress I saw on the website which i think is really interesting. Love the back!


Now I know there is no point even thinking about it cos its for skinny minnies and you have to have small boobs that can support themselves. My puppies lost their perkiness aeons ago!


Saw this dress on ebay and came close to bidding for it but deciding to lay off the ebay for a bit :-D

Cant decide if it would work on me but I love it! I think it's because it reminds me of Carrie's amazing pink dress in the last season of SATC that she wore when she ran into Big on her way to the last dinner with the girls just before she went to Paris.

US Net-A-Porter Sale

The US site is on sale now - not that inspired by the bags but I thought this was super cute

It reminds me of this bag I got in my teens on my first day trip to Paris. Can't remember who I went with but we went to Gallerie Lafayette and there was this boutique store filled with yummy bags. I got one with the big plastic thing outside and inside was another cream bag - it was like a 2 in one bag. Very handy as I could put my books and travel car on the outside where i could find them easily and the rest in the other bag. I cant remember what happened to it. Probably one of those lost in the big Bag tragedy.

Now for the shoes .....

1 Tony Burch



I like the contrasting blue and the toe strap. I DEFINITELY have a thing for toe straps this summer.

2. Brian Atwood



He is well on his way to becoming one of my favourite shoe designers

Not crazy about the style of these but think the colour is uber interesting.



These on the other hand are yummy

And I love this heel

3. Others

Lanvin shoes are a bit hit and miss for me but these are cute



I love Pucci prints generally. Not crazy about ankle or midy boots but really like heels and platforms on this. Straight up sexy!




And finally the loubous. These are interesting - slightly different from the run of the mill ones. Not sure I'd get them though. Just like the mix of colors. And the T-Bar.



Jewelry

I saw these cuffs which i think are really unique and interesting especially the flower one.












Finally - would you believe the price of this headband? LMAO!

Mimi Holliday Knickers

Aren't these knickers just delish?




These are quite vegas show-girl tastic.

Lola Rose Rings

Lola Rose jewelry is on sale on brand alley right now.

I liked these best- particularly the black one. They are quite simple for my normal tastes but they are interesting enough.

















Damn! You have to be super quick with brand alley - in the time it's taken me to put this post up the rings have sold out! Ahhh well. I may actually have bought the black one.

P.S - isn't this just hideous? Yuck!




------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok so now I have a problem. I emailed the net-a-porter people about being put on the waiting list for the YSL ring and they just emailed me saying it's available again. I was all excited. Until Vickii (damn her) told me it's costume jewelry. At a £105 pounds - is it worth it? If I add a bit more money - I can buy some serious investable jewelry.

Ok it's not like all my gold is real gold, but then I wouldn't spend that much on it in the first place. I'm more or less paying £70 for the ysl brand name. I dont like the ring because it's YSL - I just like the design - the abstract detail is beyond delicious. And anyone who knows me knows I love unusual cocktail rings. Hmmm maybe this should be my post-exam treat to myself - since I'm not going away this 5 day bank holiday weekend I've got (SUCH a waste!)- ......


I have 2 days to decide. Buy or Not?

BCBG

I'm in love with BCBG dresses at the moment. Always liked their stuff but found it too expensive. I've now started my feeding frenzy ever since my darling Bola introduced me to joys of discount clothes on ebay.

JTandCo carry an awesome range of BCBG lines.

However to get to my point - this is the dress I am dying for now



Like you dont understand. I saw the short green version on ebay and almost bust a gut but I got outbid - first attempt - I've become seasoned now. I don't know whether or not to just buy it straight from BCBG or wait .... till it goes to ebay? It's already on sale ..... hmmm.

Now this is what happened with what I shall from now on call the YSL debacle. There was this ring that I saw and loved! It was a £105 and i told myself that I would wait till my birthday or some other time i can give myself an excuse (i.e payday friday) to buy it. (Dont know why cos I've bought rings that weren't as gorgeous for the same price).

As you can guess, SOLD OUT everywhere! Damn! Like across the globe not to be seen again. Sigh.

Georgina Goodman Shoes & Others

Hello all and welcome! Inspired by Onada's lookbook - i decided to start posting up things I want and will hopefully get someday. I spend most days emailing my friends all these links so figured why not put them up on a blog? Hope you like.

I will try and include links to the websites on all the pictures but if I dont then please feel free to email me.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I get updates from many designer sale websites and designer retailers. This one is from brandalley.

Georgina Goodman

Now I've never been the hugest fan of Georgina Goodman but looking through the range I liked some of her collection.

1. Jenny



They remind me of these shoes from the Outnet.com that I'm still thinkinging about (tbp - to be posted)

2. Fenella

I like the mint colour and the little bow - plus i'm a sucker for peeptoe shoes



3. Libby

Now these I think are super-hot! The heels are sexiest kind, tall and thin - these are proper stilletos! Also really like the pattern from the side view.




4. Grosvenor

Now these are fabulously tacky with the perspex stripper heel but they are still cute. Maybe it's just the pine sole and the tan colour - it just looks ... clean! For lack of a better word.




Other Shoes


I love love love the heels of these shoes. The blue patent is a little plain but i think they are super interesting. They remind me of some designer shoes I saw one time around the time when heeless shoes became all the rage. Glad to see the trends are finally filtering down to high street level. (Ish - these aren't exactly high street)





I also love Mary Janes and t-bars. They dont always fit me as I have wide-ish feet but I always admire them. Thought these were interesting




And finally huge fan of Alexander McQueen shoes. The heels and their height are unparalleled. These also come in a beautiful pale green (mint) colour as well.




If you're interested in any of these shos - hurry up as the sale only lasts for a few days! If you want to sign up to brandalley please let me know and i'll send you an invite as I get £10 off for everyone I invite ;-)

On a final tip, a little somethng to make you ladies smile. I wouldn't mind this coming at me in the morning ;-)
