i got: Foxy Originals Necklaces

Jasmine Necklace by Foxy Originals Chai Necklace Foxy had a booth in the small vendor area at L’Oreal Fashion Week. I have looked at different designs from Foxy before but never were jazzed by anything. These two necklaces however struck me. I picked up the Jasmine in bronze colour and Chai in gold. All necklaces from Foxy are made from pewter. Enamel, stones, leather and ultra-suede are incorporated in different pieces. images: foxyoriginals.com

Celeb designers need to stop

This is just one of the fugly shoes from House of Dereon. I remember seeing these shoes in the store one day (I can’t remember what one). I laughed my ass off. Not only where they freakin’ ugly, they were almost $300 bucks. Of course, they are made in china and are going to be complete crap. Don’t say I didn’t warn you if you fall for this crap. I wonder if that fur is from a cat or a dog, I’ve heard some of the horror stories about China fur.

Cougar Winter Boots If you were a child living in Canada in the 80s, like me, then you remember Cougar boots. Man, these things are like a blast from the past. I want a pair of these again. I would totally rock these. If the 80s are back, I should be reliving the good things of that era I found these at the Canadian Design Resource site. It’s amazing for all things canadian.

I’m happy that I finally have my Stam inspired handbag now. Please note this is a real Stam bag. Town Shoes and Browns both had Marc Jacobs Stam inspired handbags this season. I spent many days wishfully looking at the bag and wondering if I should take the plunge. Well, Town Shoes made it irresistible, not only it was on sale, I got $25 dollars off. WOOT!. Dear Marc, If I could afford the real Stam, I would buy it, really I would 😀 image: www.frillr.com

Ever since I did The Owl Files Series (Apparel, Jewelry, Accessories), I’ve been on the lookout for Owl necklaces. It seems that they have reached critical mass and are now readily available in local stores. These pictures are pretty horrible, but you get the idea. These two came from Want Boutique at Yonge/St. Clair. The right one is very similar to necklaces that I featured in the post. These two came from Obsessions Fashion Accessories which is located in the Path of the TD Tower. It’s a great place to get jewelry. Four necklaces is looking a lot like a collection. I’ll have to talk about my other collections in later posts. I have a collection of vintage Adidas track jackets that need their praise.

What was I thinking

I’m really new to the services a shoe repairman offers as I’ve never really used them. I didn’t realize their power until I decided to sell these beautiful Nine West platforms I own. Aren’t they awesome? You could imagine how heart wrenching the decision to sell them was. They were just too damn tight in the toe area. I have a high tolerance for pain and I couldn’t fight through wearing them. Brand freaking new, I had worn them twice. TWICE!!! I was so disappointed. Thank god for MJ. He asked me why I was selling those beautiful heels. This statement was like salt on the wounds. When MJ likes something, I know without a doubt that it’s hot. Hot as term has forever been tainted because of that damn Paris Hilton. It’s such an accurate description. Damn Paris Hilton and those shoes, they were slipping through my fingers. I was getting angry again when MJ says, “Are they too short or is it just tight in the toe area? You can get them stretched …
