PLEAT Wellington Boots. I have to admit I’m beginning to come around to the welly. I have a lot of shoes that I just don’t like to wear in rainy and slushy weather. I noticed these beautiful things on The Cool Hunter. Too bad they are an art exhibit and not available for sale, if they were I would have to buy them. Rachael Sleight, the artist, has some other very cool looking clothes/art on her site.
Kenneth Cole Teal Shoes These cute teal heels are my first pair of Kenneth Cole shoes. I almost passed these up, but had to head back to Winners before someone else grabbed them. I have always been interested in a pair of coloured heels and these just called out to me. Paper Denim and Cloth Jeans 30 bucks for a pair of Paper denim. I had a hard time passing that up. They are a great length for heels but I still might get them hemmed a touch. I bought these at Five on Spadina – map it!!!
If you work around Queen Street you may have noticed that some stores have been closing down. Vice and Pegabo come to mind right away. However some new shops have moved in, Oakley and Stoneridge. The Oakley store I’m very curious about. I love their sunglasses (even if they are way to expensive) and their clothes look promising. Once I actually check out the inside of the store I’ll post a review. LOLStoneRidge (an Aldo company) is a good shoe store, much better than Pegabo. So I look forward to getting my Diesel finds from another store on the Queen street stretch. toronto, fashion, shopping

I love the colour scheme and pattern; the unusual shape and the hardware used for the clasp. This luxurious bag is made of black leather and velvet. Oscar de la Renta Embellished Suede Hobo This beauty is made of chocolate suede and has golden hardware. My favourite part of this bag is the engraved coins placed all over the body of the bag.

I’m a sucker for robots and all that kind of geekery. I discovered this website via web zen, that allows you to create your own cyborgname. Best of all you can get a cool looking t-shirt made and some icons for your website. I created a couple for my myself. Get Your Cyborg Name Get Your Cyborg Name I prefer the “geekigirl” acronym, it sounds better than the “anita” acronyn. A glorified help desk droid, come on now.

While searching for a picture of my wonderful Luna’s, I stumbled across a Canadian shoe retailer out of Alberta. Gravity Pope is amazing! Their Diesel collection alone makes me drool. I have to admit Miss Sixty makes some great looking shoes. I had no idea, I hate their clothes but love their shoes, let’s check some out. Natasha – I would feel like seeing the Wizard in these shoes Sunset – beautiful short boot with a low heel. Low heels rock! River Buffalo – flat boot goodness Gravity Pope has reasonable shipping prices within Canada. I think I can see myself ordering from them in the near future. Other brands they carry include Adidas, Fly London, Camper, Keen, Puma, Fluevog, Gravis, Kenneth Cole, Kenzo, Tsubo, Vans, Marc Jacobs, Pucci, CYDWOQ and more. fashion, shoes, Miss Sixty
I love Diesel, especially their shoes. Today I was walking to a friend’s birthday party after a great game of squash. I had some time to kill so I walked through the Eaton Centre and then headed north on Yonge. The Aldo Shoe Outlet (map it!) was having a sandal sale so I decided to check it out. 20 bucks for sandals, you usually can’t go wrong. Well today I had no idea how lucky I would be. These beautiful Diesel mules were on sale for 20 DOLLARS and they were my size (in the purple, not green). I couldn’t believe my luck. I asked 2 sales associated just to be sure. Retail for these shoes is $159.99 (yes, that’s the real price). And yes, I got them for 20 DOLLARS, 20 FREAKIN’ DOLLARS. SCORE!!!!! I have 5 pairs of Diesel shoes currently (oops, 6 now) but these are my first Diesel heels, and I love them. I’m contemplating buying these beauties too Diesel shoes are very, very comfortable; you can walk forever in them. …
