holy hot hell on a sidewalk in the middle of july in an arizona desert somebody get me those shoes. i think the toes are carved into the shapes of hearts? sweetjesus on high, toss me the respirator because it just got TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL up in here. i am betting those shoes have a chunky heel, which is perfecto, and the fact that they have an ankle strap makes me want to put on lacy white tights, a watermelon colored minidress, and dance in the moonlight a la king harvest on a crazy margarita bender. put it together. IT ALL MAKES SENSE.
also that skirt is high-fiving god with its epic awesomosity but really guys, really, i NEED THOSE SHOES. you know how t.i. wants your body? you know how he needs your body? you know as long as you got him you won't need nobody?
well that's how i feel about those shoes. all of that. and more. someone can go ahead and box them up for me, size 10, and fed-ex them right over to my lair aka my HQ. we serve cookies here. 24/7. they taste like angels' wings fluttering on your tastebuds. it all makes sense.
thanks in advance and i love you all like the sisters that weren't super bitchy to me in middle school.

Hawt Or Nawt?
Dear gawd these shoes border on completely ugly and slightly extremely garish. But, they have this total 1990's Clueless Cher Horowitz feel to them. I really have no fucking idea when, where, or how I would wear these babies, but I somehow feel like I need them in my closet. Plus I could take out the current ribbon and replace it with whatever ribbon went with my outfit. Options?
Thoughts?

If The Shoe Fits, It's Too Expensive
"But I rationalized that my new shoes shouldn't be punished just because I can't budget."
---Carrie, Sex and the City
Soooo everyone knows I'm an earring fiend. I luh 'em. They complete my outfits perfectly and never want to fondle my chest like necklaces do when they slip down my dresses. I also love headbands because they are super cute and retro chic. Espesh this completely Zelda Fitzgerald-esque headband I bought at For Love 21:In addition to headbands and earrings, girrrlllll I luh me some shoes. When I see the right pair, I go "fierce!" and I have to try them on. I even spent $54 on a pair of black and white patent leather Steve Madden heels when I only had about $80 in the bank. I'm not exactly a sneakerhead but boy I can apreesh a good pair of kicks. Oh! Like this one pair of Cre8tive Recreation kicks that I saw this girl rocking one time...and of course, all the Harajuku Lovers sneaks are too cute. And I've always been a Converse over Vans girl.
With all that said, I am an always and forever lover of heels. Not only because they are the only shoe left that only women can wear, but because they are so sexy and womanly. Tell me you don't feel like a goddess in the right heels...you can't! I'm not a fan of Miu Miu and Marc Jacobs heels because they're more art pieces than wearable pumps, but Lord have I been feeling the fuck out of Karl's latest incarnations. But gawd, I love them all...the kitten heels, the fuck me heels, the sophisticated heels, the wedges, and espesh the stillettos. (You know Crime Mob rocks them in the club!!!) So I present to you guys my current heel inspo!! Feel more than free to add your own shoe lovin' testimonies and/or fave brand of the moment!!!!These are from Guess. Isn't the color yummy???
These are actually from Forever 21, but I love the 20's art deco style!
These are Naught Monkey. I would wear these with a button down and leggings! See why I should become a fashion stylist?!
These babies are Isaac Mizrahi and easily the cutest, most sophisticated, retro heels I've seen in awhile. I wish they sold these at Target...
I've seen a few better pairs, but at the moment these Yves Saint Laurent stilettos win "Best Fuck Me Heels." Even though I find myself losing my balance just imagining walking in them, I want them sooo bad! Anyone have $660 so I can buy a pair?
Deuces,
Erika

ZOMG! Champagne Shoes For A Beer Filled Sport!
Are you like me, and really like to go bowling? Are you like me, and have stupidly large feet that don't really correspond to your height (size 10, 5'7 WTF)? And are you like me, and wish they had shoes that were a lot nicer than the fug economy bowling shoes they dole out at the alleys with nary a care?
Then we should totes go bowling sometime! We sound so alike!
And when we do, we can wear these! High class, heeled bowling shoes that make it okay to go straight from the office to the alley. And in a weird way, they're kind of retro cute so maybe they might be acceptable enough to wear even when you're not bowling! New trend alert! These fab shoes come in two styles (for those of us that like variation so subtle, only we'll notice it): Rental Red (above) and Black, White, and Red (below).
Champagne shoes for a beer filled sport! Now we just have to master bowling in three-inch heels! Think of the CRAZY antics that will ensue after a few pitchers!

Erika

Shoes and Cats! Together! Punch Punch!
Look at these shoes! See them?! They have cat faces on the front of them! They're kinda ugly and look like they were designed by a fourth grader who, in between rocking these feline kicks, would wear Crocs for building mud bridges during recess. And they're $250! But they're also Marc Jacobs, so you have to buy them! Don't you want to be a fashion maverick?? Don't you want the Sartoralist to take photos of you looking like you don't care or are too chic to care that the Sartorialist is taking photos of you! Don't you feel the sarcasm is my nonexistent virtual voice? Don't you want to be BLOGGED about?!?!
Punch punch?

Lily Allen's Hair Is Brown Again!
(img via bauer griffin)
Although Lily Allen is gorgeous enough to me that she can rock black hair and pink hair and still look good by popular survey, her hair is back to a normal shade: brown. Wig, extensions, Jezebel conspiracies or not, now I can go to sleep. Thx Lils.
Deuces,
