  • Women’s Winter Boots part 1

    The sun has been shining so long, the world of black tights and boots seem like a lifetime ago.. but sure enough fashion has other ideas and the new boots of the season have arrived.. the first 3 of my favourites are:

    The Isabel Marant boot for this winter, she does an iconic one every year it seems, and this one looked so luxurious and snug with all the beautiful knits she did:

    The the Saint Laurent.. not the one that went with the Nirvana era throwback season he did, the boots that go with all the sexy suiting:

    and here is one of the multiple permutations of the unexpected but soon to be hit of the season, the ‘Over the Knee’ aka OTK.. by Miu Miu…

     

  • Margiela!!!!!! thank you Apple….

    I have been dreaming thinking sweating about it ever since I saw the collection online … the boots, I had to have the boots. If you haven’t seen them, here they are:

    I’m willing to give up comfortable shoes and a month of groceries to have them.. So this morning I set my alarm to log in and buy them online – easy, no? why schlep to the store and wait in the cold when I can do it from my bed… but no, by 10am, I had the boots in my sight, but not in my shopping cart… off I went to Oxford street.. the loooovvveelyyy security guards tell me at 10.30 that we can’t shop without a wristband (dammit) until 12.30. Crap. crap crap crap. there will be nothing left by then.
    screw that Well I guess it’s only fair everyone gets a turn.

    I run down Regent Street to the Apple store where there are fast computers as far as the eye can see.
    I swear Apple isn’t paying me, but the connection and the site was soooo fast, at 10.39 am I had placed my order AND had time to buy more. If only Visa was as generous as Apple…

    So then as smug casual as can be I wandered to the H&M on Oxford street at 12.00 – and here is what it looked like:

    Reasonably civilised, but all the good stuff was gone…. did anyone else get what they wanted??
