i want: Rainboots

Published by

Blue Tweed Wellington Boots The nasty weather in T.O has me thinking about Wellies again. I’ve talked about Wellies before on I want – I got. They were really cool, but unfortunately an art project. Toile Wellington Boots These printed ones by Tamara Henriques are very nice, but I love the classic black. For you girlie girls they have many kitten heel rain boots like this n Canada you can purchase them at Forty Mile Creek. They don’t have the complete collection, but more choice than other online retailers I checked. via Lifestyle Navigator

YSL Heels S/S 2006 I love these shoes even though I would never be able to afford them. Apparently chunky heels and platforms are back for S/S 2006. I’m not much of a trend shopper, I tend to buy things to last most than a season. Here’s the non-slingback version. Gorgeous. The model’s hairy legs gave me a chuckle 😀 via Style.com

i got…(Oddzballz)

Published by

Oddzballz I bought the purple one, its name is Slupeez. These cute little cell phone charms are made by the talented Elsa Kawai. I first saw them in early December and ordered one without hesitation. They are all handmade and no two are exactly alike (just like high priced denim guys!). While they are listed as cell phone charms, I plan on using mine as a bag charm. They would be good on a keychain also. The First OddzBallz Why the name?? Because they are odd and round like a ball! The OddzBallz are the offspring of my fantasy and the first OddzBallz saw the face of this earth on a warm summer day in 2005 when I did some random drawings in my sketchbook, while waiting for my flight to Providence, RI. My brain suddenly had an inspiration and my hands produced a funny creature, which turned out to be the prototype OddBeez character. I wanted OddBeez to have a body & soul, so I gave him a body using clay materials. I then …

Tano Handbag retailers in Canada

I’ve noticed that I get a lot of hits for Tano handbags. I thought I would post the Canadian retailers for those that want to know. It would be a good idea to inquire with each store as to their availability. You can also purchase Tano bags online at Musthavebag.com (I got it right this time 😉 ). Stay tuned as I will blog the Spring 2006 line when it becomes available.

Nooka Zoo V2 watch I just recently lost my Paul Frank watch, grrr. I lose watches a lot and I stopped buying them, except for the recent Paul Frank purchase. Figures I lose it. These beauties however might make me change my mind on spending a lot of money on watches. I promise not to lose you! I really like this version also Nooka Zoo [classic] Nooka is the ancient Amararunk’thuh word meaning “future is now”. Nooka is a contraction of “New Yorker” as pronounced with a native New York accent. Nooka is a the first part of “New York” and the last part of “Osaka”– expressing the global aesthetic of its creator.

i got: 1964 PAC Sorel boots

1964 PAC Sorel boots This was the most difficult of my boxing day finds. Aldo is selling Sorels, seems they had some partnership as the boots were branded with both logos. Anyways, I had no intention of getting white boots, but all other colours were sold out in my size. I found my size in white in 2 of the 5 Aldos I visited. They are damn popular this season. I was in a rush to find these things as they were on sale from $99.99 to $79.99 and there was an additional 25% off before 11a.m. That extra 25% worked out to $19.00 and the boots finally cost $59.99. Woot! I wasn’t crazy on the colour at first, but I was thinking function over fashion. I wasn’t stupid enough to feel the $40 extra was worth having brown Sorels. These boots are light, very, very warm and best of all WATERPROOF. I will no longer cringe at those nasty, salty and slushy puddles at intersections. I will walk through them proudly laughing at the …

Fluevog Shoes

I’ve never owned a pair of Fluevogs, even though I’ve pined over them for more than 10 years now. They aren’t for everyone, but I love the quirkness of them. I noticed a really wicked pair on Manolo the Shoeblogger’s site

Beautiful straight lines. If I needed a new pair of black boots, these would be in the running. I browsed the Fluevog site some more and discovered

Secret Garden Print Bag by Marc Jacobs Summer Check Bag by Burberry London I usually despise Burberry. Totally Chav crap in my mind. This bag has softened me a bit. It’s just so colourful and fun.
