Boots by Chanel I noticed these boots browsing the Chanel Spring 06 couture show pictures . I have no idea why I am drawn to these. They are just so “smart” looking. Classic and clean. I like strange shoes. Thank god I’ll never be able to afford them, then I don’t have to worry about what I would wear with them. Take a look at the pictures from the Chanel couture show, there are some beautiful pieces.

J’Adore Dior

Published by

The Dior Couture fashion show would have been fantastic to see in person. Pure spectacle fashion, love it!!!! The Grumpy Owl had some classic quotes as he viewed the show. One would think that Dior had robbed Satan’s closet to procure the clothing in his most recent celebration of cocaine, bitchery and pure decadence. Final Fashion and coolchiq also share their views. In other news… I got a shout out on FAD. That made me happy because Lera’s blog is the shit. Yes, I’m kinda nerdy. Edit: There is a great conversation about the Dior couture show on Final Fashion. I personally ignored whatever The Pirate had to say about the collection and just enjoyed the clothes. I guess I just can’t take anything that he says seriously. He does bring a smile to my face, especially when it involves commentary from The Manolo.

Voting

I usually stick to fashion posts. However, I had a laugh voting today. I had no idea how many different and varied candidates I had to choose from. Communist – Miguel Figueroa Action – Wendy Forrest Green – Mark O’Brien NDP – Gord Perks Conservative – Theresa Rodrigues Liberal – Mario Silva Marxist-Leninist – Sarah Thompson I really wish I had my camera, but I’m pretty sure that would be a federal offence.

Nike & Goodfoot presents Joga Bonito

Published by

Last night I attended a party at Goodfoot. A really cool Joga Bonito installation was done by Virus. There was also an advanced preview of Nike’s Motion Capture Court Force. Yes, it was a shoe opening, LOL. Free booze and nibbles though. I spent most of my time looking at people’s shoes. Let me tell you there was a lot nice sneakers in the place. Nike was the dominate shoe of choice. It was also funny to see grown men get upset when they noticed someone else wearing their shoes or choice accessory of the night. LOL, guys can be just as bad as chicks. Now on to the shoes. I’ve mentioned that I’m not much of a Nike fan. I like some of their shoes in theory, but would never purchase them. The new Motion Capture Court Force shoes are nice, my favourite being the black pair. I just love the details on the laces. You can view more about the shoes here and here. Edit: I found an article in Sneaker Freaker magazine …
