Looks who’s totally copied the silver Gucci boots I spend the summer pining over, Franco Sarto available at Town Shoes. I first saw this book in the latest Lou Lou Magazine. I literally had to do a double take. I thought there was a mistake in the advertisement; they don’t carry Gucci at Town. These look identical. I tried on the Gucci’s at Holt’s, if they only had a 39. I’m going to try on these knockoffs and compare when I see them in the stores. image: townshoes.com

Balenciaga RTW Spring Summer 2007 Video I posted this previously, but it was to a bad youtube video. I’m hosting a much better version now. Watch and see how the C3PO leggings should be worn.
Balenciaga Fall 2007 – 2008 Collection Video – no sound unfortunately I thought the collection was a little all over the place. However, the fashion elite loved it. The clothes do look better on the video than in print. video: frillr.com
Alexander McQueen dresses Only 2 men get me jazzed up for Tartan Alexander McQueen and JPG
It’s taken a few seasons but I’ve come to like Marni a lot. My favourite partsof the collections are the wonderful coats. Here is a selection of the coats from the Marni Spring 2007 collection.
Some of my favs from Balenciaga’s spring/summer 2007 season. These horrible pictures don’t do the clothing justice.
Passenger Pigeon, the affair continues… I have a coat fetish, big time. I have a double closet dedicated to them. Most of them are vintage, a few are military. There is also my prized possession, Anita. The Bell coat (pictured above) is made from a woolen army blanket. This summer I loved the wrap dress and this fall is no different. I love the Jersey wrap dress made from cotton and bamboo. Instead of birds this one has tree stumps. However another dress has added itself to the mix, the Herringbone Mod Dress. This one is made with bamboo, linen and lined with 100% silk, nice! The tree motive is a big trend with the fall 2006 collection.
God these are the best patent shoes ever. Ahh, Prada. Check out the detail on the front toe
So Italy won the World Cup 2006 yesterday and congrats to them. I like soccer, not only for the sport, but mostly for bodies like this: Thank you D&G, this is your best ad campaign ever. Sigh, Cannavaro and Pirlo.
