totally freakin sexy shoes

when hubby wanted to go see iron man for the second time, i was all like: yay - this time look at her shoes! don't know how he missed this deliciousness the first time, but now, the second time, i need them even more.

apparently, it is a phenomenom because when i searched "pepper potts shoes" a whole bunch of links came up with women asking where they came from. my favorite response probably sums up what the hubby was thinking: r u kidding me? you went to see what was possibly the coolest movie of all time and all you are thinking is 'what shoes did pepper potts have'? but i digress.

feast on the awesome-ness of pepper potts and her shoes:


they are, according to the internet, christian louboutins. i found these looking for those. these might actually be those, without the metallic, i can't tell exactly:
and for about $400 less, you can get the all-black nine west ones below. i might even like them better than above. i would definitely if they were patent.

flamingos!

another designer item from my recent magazines: just cavalli flamingo mini-dress

these designer things seem like they would be awfully hard to buy if one wanted too, can't really find them on the web even to get the price. guess that's the nature of it: supply vs. demand. if everyone can get it, it's not really special, is it?


anyway, not sure why but i just think it's adorable. i probably wouldn't add the matching tights, but it looks great with kate's knee high boots. i think this dress just fits in well with my goal of adding fun to my wardrobe which is pretty basic (+ dull) at the moment. i've always loved black dresses with white collars - always! - and this just takes it up a notch. so cute!

winter wants

although it is 100 degrees here, i'm craving this leopard beret and these purple gloves. from Ralph Lauren's Fall 2008 Collection. (i sound fashion-y, don't i? fall 2008 collection... got that from the website. took forever to find these on it.)

i couldn't find a good picture, so this is a pic of an ad in vogue:


My plain black coat will look so sophisticated... at a sophisticated price!
long suede gloves: $425
leopard beret: $650

by the way, did anyone know ralph lauren had a dog collection? that is too weird for me...

back by popular demand...
