Rupert Sanderson Fall 2009 Shoes I usually don’t like suede bootie but Rupert can pull it off. Purple shoes are always fun. I’m most excited by the blue shoes. EDIT: (Nov 14, 2009) Shoe 1 and 3 can be found at Plum Boutique in Yorkville. images: rupertsanderson.co.uk
I’m always sad when the really cold weather happens because I have to put away my Chucks. It was just too cold to wear them. That’s changed this season because there are now Converse Chuck Taylor Boots. I like the plaid and leather versions. They cost $140. The one below is nylon and it’s $120. They are available at NEON, Get Outside and Little Burgundy in Toronto. You can find the leather and nylon versions in stores now, but the Woolrich Plaid will be available after November 30, 2009. http://www.neonclothing.ca
I’ve been waiting for Victoria’s Secret to make their move to Canada for a few years now. They have decided to make a move into the market but not in the way I expected. Victoria’s Secret PINK has opened at Square One in Mississauga. I really was hoping for the regular Victoria’s Secret and I’m not sure why they went in this direction. Victoria’s Secret Pink is: a fully-articulated lifestyle brand designed for young women. Optimistic and confident girls find perfect expression in PINK’s assortment of versatile activewear, loungewear, sleepwear, lingerie and accessories to complement their PINK style. Vibrant, colorful stores match the PINK girl’s dynamic individuality and on-the-go lifestyle. The Pink line isn’t for me as it’s obviously for tweens and teenagers with its collegiate influence. I don’t find any of it very compelling. However, I can see young girls who want to buy into the Victoria’s Secret brand being interested. I was invited to the store opening but couldn’t attend. I probably would have been able to ask questions at that time. This …
Yaudie is a line created by a high school friend of mine. It’s funny how lives come together years afterwards in unusual ways. Yaudie is very influenced by Caribbean roots and heritage. So, when I saw this Wray & Nephew White Overproof Rum inspired shirt I was in love. Wray & Nephew White Overproof Rum is a crazy rum you can only get in the Caribbean. It’s Jamaican actually (my parents are from Barbados). It’s 63% but it’s fantastic in punch and other fruity drinks. They won’t allow it in Canada so the only way to get it is to travel or get friends to bring you back some. As you can imagine, it gets you drunk fast and doesn’t taste like the hell you would expect. It’s one of my favourite rums. You can purchase Yaudie Ts off the website.

I’ve looked at a lot of thigh high boots and I have to say these Azzedine Alaia ones are perfect. I’ve been weary of the stiletto heel with point toe style of thigh highs but they seem to dominate the choices. This Alaia boot has none of those things. It’s a practical pair of thigh highs without the crazy heel and platform. image: BrownsFashion.com

I was in the horrible Vaughan Mills mall when I spotted thest Converse. I’m in love. This post was made from my Blackberry. I hope it’s not too messed up 🙂
When I saw these boots at Philip’s Fall 2009 show I died. I immediately asked if they were going into production and then I asked what the sizing would be. Unfortunately, they start at Men’s 40 which is a 6.5 and too big for me. However guys that doesn’t stop you from getting a pair. The Riding Boots with Brown Cuff can be found at the Philip Sparks online shop. image: philipsparks.com
