I don’t like gold that much, I’m a silver person. I find it a bit tacky. Luxist has now shown me the ultimate tacky shoe. The design is simple and I have to wonder how sturdy they are. Gold isn’t a strong material. Up to 680 grams of pure gold was used for the shoes. via Luxist images: http://fisherwy.blogspot.com
These Via Spiga shoes remind me of the Dries Van Noten Fall 2007 pair I was drooling over in February. Dries Van Noten Fall 2007 Via Spiga
Spectator Shoes by Via Spiga I’ve been dying for a pair of Spectator Shoes. Necessary items to perfect my menswear inspired looks. I purchased this pair from Winners for $40. They were sufficiently granny-looking enough for my needs. It seems this company’s shoes retails for much more than that.

I visited the new Coach store with a co-worker last week. That store offends all my sensibilities. I was bombarded with the horrible CC monogram those horrible patchwork bags were all over the place. I can’t remember the last time I saw so many fugly bags in one place. Actually, I don’t think I’ve every seen so many fugly bags in one place. The store is accessories only, no clothing. I didn’t see any shoes, but I could be wrong. Look at this hideous thing, who finds this appealing. I want to know. They did have the only thing I could find on the website that I liked. images: coach.com
It’s a monogrammed LV bag I can get into. This Louis Vuitton Icone bag is designed by Zaha Hadid. LVMH commissioned the bag for an exhibition. In the spirit of Marc Jacobs, who has constantly reinvented the House icons with flair and genius, Louis Vuitton has invited nine exceptional creative talents—artists, architects and designers—to celebrate nine iconic bags in an exhibition that will run from September 15 to December 31, 2006 at the “Espace Louis Vuitton”. The Louis Vuitton Icone bag is made of moulded plastic and comes with its own stand and two stools. LVMH press release image: zahahadidblog.com
I posted about the Jil Sander Fall 2007 Accessories while back. The shoes were so amazing. Diane, from A Shaded View on Fashion has posted a couple pics of the boots in real life. They are even more amazing. image: A Shaded View of Fashion
Maurice Lacroix Pontos Decentrique watch This is a men’s watch but I tend to like male watch styles better. None of the women’s watches on the Maurice Lacroix site even comes close to this. I’m not sure I want to know the price There is one retailer in Toronto Louis Black 24 Bellair Street M5R 2C7 Toronto
The Balenciaga Lego shoes are $4,175USD at Neiman Marcus. Not sure if Holt Renfrew will be carrying them. via Frillr
