My babies...

Today when I went into Aldo, I couldn't control myself. Usually, I go in, see a pair of shoes I love, think about them, then go back, think about them again, and then decide if I'll get them or not - I want to be sure you know!? Now, I must admit oftentimes I leave the thinking a bit too long and before I know it someone else has zapped all the size sixes - one of the beauties of having a "common sized foot".

Well today, I walked in, spotted these babies and ...

Now they're mine!

I couldn't resist and can you honestly blame me? I mean they are H-O-T! Super high, super sexy, super comfy and just plain fabulous!

The only thing that remains is finding the perfect outfit and an excuse to wear them. But, they look great with jeans too, so I don't think they'll stay brand new for too long :)

New York, New York

You've just got to love New York (not that I've ever been, but that city calls me every day!).

Then again, what's not to love? In New York you get Times Square... Sex and The City..... Manhattans and Cosmopolitans... shopping and designer labels lining the streets. But there is also the most important event in the fashion calendar.... The Mercedes Benz New York Fashion week and it kicks off today!

Anyone who's anyone will be there to check out the upcoming Spring 2010 fashions from the top designers. It all goes down in Bryant Park today and the fashionista's get to indulge until the 17th September 2009.

Today's designers include Michael Angel, BCBG Max Zaria, Davidelfin, Duckie Brown, Mara Hoffmann, Nicholas K, Whitney Eve, Ports 1961 and Rosa Cha.

Lets see how it goes....

There's Gladiator and then there's Spartan

Gladiator heels are super hot and it looks as though they are going to hang around for a few seasons (YAY).

Now there's gladiators like these from Dior...



And then there's Spartans, like these new, very different heels from PRADA baby...

Rock me baby...

Lately I've been a bit obsessed with the whole rocker-edge look. Skulls are so hot right now and of course, lots and lots of barra-BLING!

I've even resorted to wearing my studded "heavy metal" leather bracelet from way back when, but this time round, wearing it with my "girly" bangle.


I also found this super hot ring from Sass Diva - It fits over two fingers - kinda like a knuckle-duster, but I wont be leaving my mark on any one's forehead :)


Gotta wear it with red nails!

My new favourite Nail Polish is "Red Tango" from Estee Lauder - Yum, YUM!

Good Hair Days...

Coming my way....


Check out the fabulous ghd shampoos, conditioners and treatments that arrived this morning... I've been dying to try out the Opulence Mask, so yay, I got it. Ill give you the verdict soon!

These are all for my October GLOSSY magazine feature on sexy, summer hair.

Gotta love my job :)

Obsessed with

Christian Louboutin booties...

This pair is so gorgeous!

Shoe Porn - Viktor & Rolf

Black and white and all things nice.... How incredibly whack are these Viktor & Rolf heels?


If you've ever seen a Viktor & Rolf fashion show, you'd know these guys love pushing the boundaries... Their whole show revolves around the artistry of the collection - the music is always a little haunted and trance-like and their models (and designs) always stand out.

Remember their Autumn/ Winter 2007/ 2008 runway show?


But anyways, back to the shoes. This pair of geometric pumps are certainly no exception to their wild style.

Here is a runway image from the Viktor & Rolf 2009 Spring Ready to wear collection featuring model Shalom Harlow.
