For the Love of My Feet...

There is always an elegance about John Galliano's shoes.This time too the shoes were available in a plethora of colors.My favorites were the Turkish inspired lattice work shoes in bright colors followed by the shoes with metal studded straps criss-crossing each other and in the process adding a tad of sophistication to them.The last kind were tie ups with tassel ends, they were relatively simpler while compared to the other two, giving a more modern twist to the Oriental fantasy spun by Galliano.The heels took a more Persian/Mughal stand, curved like an antique chair's leg with carved metal band at the base of the heel.

Overall the shoe affair was one of art meeting modernity, artistic yet wearable.

Fashion Pick Of The Day (13/01/09)

Ever had the experience of your little one scribbling with crayons on the white shoe that you had bought, after months of saving and waiting patiently in line for more than half a day to get into the store on SALE day? Fret not when it happens the next time, for the young ling might have done the shoe a ton of good!!! Slip into a red mini dress, wear these shoes and set the town ablaze with your jaw dropping style.

Giuseppe Zannoti's Murder Spree

How else could one justify this Fall 2009 shoe design right from the sketch pad of Giuseppe Zannoti? Kudos to Zannoti for adding a whole new dimension to the concept of "killer heels", and as for you ladies, you have got less than an year to get your balancing act right!!! Someone please tell me that Zannoti was just designing for the "Impossible Shoe" contest and not for Fall 2009!!!

Black And White Morning

Giuseppe Zanotti E96125

As you get ready for work on Monday morning, for once you are thankful for still having a place to go on every weekday called "office".With the days passing by, the only change that seems to be happening in your life is the number of your friends getting laid off.After a Thanksgiving week of sorts, you reminiscence how your mother always warned you about the ups and downs in life.Heaving a sign you reach out for your handbag, look at your shoes (pictured above), which your dear hubby was kind enough to bestow upon you as a little Thanksgiving present, and wonder why the highs and lows of your life cannot blend as harmoniously as the white and black on your shoes!!!So long, life goes on, another week, another challenge in another pair of shoes!!

P.S:Black and white color combo is a hot trend for spring 2009, which makes this pair very trendy and fashion forward.

Spring 2009 Ready-To-Wear - Louis Vuitton

Just when you had thought that bags in two avatars namely monogrammed and embossed were all there was to Louis Vuitton and for fresh quirky fashion one had to look elsewhere, Marc Jacobs(the designer of the collection) springs a surprise that is so very welcome.This collection had all the usual Vuitton fare, only they were morphed into African tribal art and the result was pleasant beyond description.Though the clothes offered an array of options from wide leg pants to short skirts, the collection belonged to the accessories crazy, what with a zillion options of bangles, necklaces, shoes and bags screaming tribal art!!!The shoes were noteworthy, decorated with thin strips of python, feathers and colorful beads.Very tribal and very dreamy.The best of Louis Vuitton on display.

Save your pennies for spring, for Louis Vuitton's spring accessories are too good to miss!!
