J to the Crew

Posted by Coast Side Babe | The Shoe Fits | Friday 30 March 2012 8:13 am

Have you seen those Italian ballet flats? Well, I have a funny story, I was counting all the coins that I kept in my two huge piggy banks and they actually summed up to one pair of JCrew Ballet Flats that I’ve been eyeing but how uncool will it be to pay with coins? :D So, I asked my husband to change my change. LOL. And he was like, scratching his head and flashing a funny smile. Oh yeah, way to go for changing it, he loves me that much, as for the coins? Well, he put them in a ziplock bag and I think he will just deposit it in the bank. Wise guy! Anyway, here is the pair that I am eyeing for…

ADELINA RAFFIA BALLET FLATS

“Italian ballets a flat-out fabulous twist with a sparkling jewel perched on a raffia pom-pom (we’re loving the contrast of rustic and refined). Crafted in a richly textured basket-weave cotton, these easy-on-the-feet head turners feature a cushioned insole for maximum comfort. Cotton upper. Leather lining and sole. Made in Italy.”

And yes, it is priced at $228, that’s how much I saved from my piggy banks! :)

Lusting over Shoes

Posted by Coast Side Babe | The Shoe Fits | Friday 20 January 2012 3:58 am

A friend of mine was showing me these nice military coveralls that can actually be a fashion statement if worn fashionably. I think, men’s clothing and footwear are now fashionably worn even by women. Take for example these shoes that I am lusting for quite some time now, they are actually designed for women but the style is definitely patterned from the men’s line.

    I Love The City

    Posted by Coast Side Babe | The Shoe Fits | Wednesday 14 September 2011 9:46 pm

    What is there not to love about New York City? Those steel buildings that towers the city, the cafes just around the corners, fancy restaurants anywhere you go, pizza and hotdog sandwiches on side streets plus all the shops!!! Yes, the shops that are so accessible when you want to look at something that intrigued you online. I had that experience yesterday. I was browsing over at Barney’s and saw this…

    It’s Not the Bags Today

    I am blogging about Louis Vuitton but I will not talk about bags, for a change. Summer Collection 2011:

    LV1
    FIDJI THONG IN LEATHER

    Two Monogram flowers are superposed to make a striking ornament on this summery flat sandal in matte calf leather.

    LV2
    MARBELLA SANDALS IN PATENT LEATHER
    With its subtly retro play on slender, glossy leather straps, this striking T-strap sandal is right on trend for summer. The golden stiletto heel is signed with a Monogram flower.

    LV3
    MAJORCA WEDGE SANDALS IN MONOGRAM IDYLLE
    Coordinating with Louis Vuitton’s Monogram Idylle Leather goods line, this chic espadrille-style wedge sandal plays on the contrast between the matte canvas and the glossy patent leather trim.

    Yes, Louis Vuitton designs great shoes too! :D
