Lets Talk SHOES!

Finally the Grammy weekend is over and I can share my Shoe advice with all of you :) So lets talk shoes. All us ladies know how much a shoe can make or break and outfit. Sometimes it's the accessories that are hard to find and match to a dress/outfit.We all love out designer shoes! Well here is the secret.... you don't have to be rich to strut designer shoes. All you have to do is hit up some sales, sample samples, second hand stores, etc. I call it shopping smart!All of my designer shoes were bought on sale or at a second hand store. It does not make you any less fashionable ladies! Learn how to save and be fashionable at the same time and most importantly proud and happy of your purchases :) Sometimes its just better to wait it out for that one designer shoe to go one sale then to buy cheap quality shoes that you will probably rarely wear.  Every fashionista should have all types and shapes and forms of shoes. These would include, boots, pumps, flats, booties, platforms, so on and so forth. Furthermore, if you are wealthy and or capable of buying shoes full price etc here are some great websites. www.zappos.com, piperlime.com,endless.com, dsw.com, 6pm.com, net-a-porter.com, jildorshoes.com, shoes.com, heels.com, dellamoda.com, shoebuy.com. If you like shoe blogs here are some great ones; shoeblogs.com, shoewawa.com, theshoegoddess.com, obsessedwithshoes.com, fabsugar.com, talkshoes.com.

Here are some fun stats about shoes : Amount of $ the average woman spends on shoes over a lifetime is about $25,000. # of women who own at least one pair of designer shoes is 1 in 4 (we can change this after reading my blog :)

Furthermore if you are sick of some of your old pairs of shoes simply sell them! there are site such as ebay.com, craiglist.org, and then stores such as Decades, Crossroads and Wasteland amongst others.

Above were some of the shoes that I myself own and love! All bought below 25% of retail price.  It's possible :) remember QUALITY over QUANTITY is always a big key in Fashion! Whether its with shoes, clothes, bags, accessories etc!

Revelations .... written 11/15/11

Isn't it funny how most people prefer to read personal blogs and are more interested in the drama and the gossip than anything else? I was debating all day today whether I should write a personal blog about my feelings and or what I'm thinking as of today and decided to go for it. As in the past it might have hurt some people and or got me in some trouble. But this is purely about my thoughts. Recently I have experienced some lows in my life and I noticed that it happens through out life and you begin to grow and discover more about yourself every day of your life. Some people enter your life while others exit, some interests replace old ones, some feelings develop as others disappear, so on and so forth. At this point in my life I feel disconnected from a several people in my life. It can go both ways, It may be me and how I feel or it may be the other person depending on what your preferences are in different situations. One thing is for sure, you cant expect people to have t...

Spread LOVE

Romance is a big part of love, so is connection, chemistry and that spark you feel between yourself and your mate or even someone from your past or your future. Love is a feeling that each person can characterize as their own, but when you feel it together w another person is unexplainable. Why does love hurt yet feel so good at the same time? Its the big question we all ask ourselves its like having a thin line between love and hate and pain and healing. It can change in a second, a minute, an hour, a week or even last a lifetime. I feel like these days love is very political and it kills the romance and that spark that you may have w person. Money, values, who supports who female vs. Male, who has more money, what house does one live in. If we throw all those things out the window can you imagine how amazing love would be if it was just PURE and the feeling only came from the ♡. Are we just afraid of honesty? Are we afraid to let our feelings flow? Or are we afraid of getting hur...

NYC Fashion > LA Fashion

As I recently took a short trip to NYC I of course observed all the fashion and the visual displays on Madison Ave, 5th Ave and more. NY is such a beautiful place to be and there is so much to see. I would walk at times on my own and just observe and take it all in, it was an amazing experience. NY remains to be my #1 place to live and be a part of . Its really the center of the universe with its diversity. Now onto the Fashion. As always I love designer resale stores. NYC happens to have some of the best ones. I went to my favorite again which is simply called "Designer Resale" also known as "The miracle on 81st  Street". Not only are things priced fairly but they have the best selection on the Upper East Side and in NY period. As I walked in I fell in love with a Chanel bag. Imagine, small elegant on a long chain and python. I asked the sales girl to let me see it. I thought to myself its probably over 2k but let me just see it ! To my surprise it was a fraction...
