Witty Moment from the Hubs...

The hubs doesn't have too many of these.. or well, maybe he does, but not too many I actually laugh at and feel they are post worthy.

Yesterday, I'm packing up my 3,000 shoe samples trying to get out of town, and the hubs walks into my office to offer to help carry out the bags. He shakes his head and says to me, 'Ya know, if you ever got in a wreck.. it would look like a pinata filled with shoes exploded across the highway.'

I looked up at him.. He had that big 'I'm so proud of myself' look on his face. That combined with the visual I was having of my car, the shoes, a pinata I couldn't help but laugh! Tee hee hee....

But I mean a shoe stuffed pinata has to be better than a guacamole stuffed one..... Enjoy!

Art is an investment. Shoes are Art. Therefore, Shoes are an investment.

Art is an investment. Shoes are Art. Therefore, Shoes are an investment.

This is what I keep telling my husband... Why he doesn't understand this, I don't know. It's so clear to me. It has become even more clear to me as I explore the depths of the shoe design world. With my current obsession of Christian Louboutin, I came upon this insanely brilliant pair of wedges...



I was floored! I mean.... *gasps!* Do you see it? Do you see the inspiration? One might say the Partridge Family Bus... *giggles* but seriously. Being the art major, I can only think of one of my favorite artists, Piet Mondrian. If you've never looked at his work, you really should take a closer look...

So. Art. Shoes. I give you le Cindy Says black pumps... sculptured beautiful pumps.



So love them or hate them.. and everyone always has an opinion.. these pumps are sculptural in design with a side of sass. I love them... *THUD*

CLoubs Needed! Donations Can be Sent To...

Christian Louboutin. You are pretty much a bastard. That is why I love you. Always love the bastards... why is that?! You make hawt shoes though.. fuckhawt shoes if we're being honest and we are.

So yeah.. I'm not sure when I became so obsessed with CLoubs or actually deciding my clumsy, destroys-a-pair-of-shoes-in-5-minutes-self needed a pair, but I totes do. It all began with glittery CLoubs.....

Exhibit A. Christian Louboutin, glittered sling-backs



My attempt at glittered platforms with redic high heels from Oh! Deer.. I like to think they are damn good knock offs, except for the fact that they hurt. *Chants: Beauty is pain. Beauty is pain. Beauty is pain.* Yeah...



So then moving on down the line of crazy Oh! Deer shoes in my closet, I found these lovelies..



This is what I love about Oh! Deer.. I'm chatting with @Team_SixPack about, #Duh, my CLoub obsession and she's begging for a preview of the 'wannabe' CLoubs for this post.. so I give in because I'm shamelss like that.. and I love sharing shoe porn. Her reaction, "OMG! THOSE ARE HOT!" hehehe... ;) They are hot. Very. I may or may not have them in multiple colors... but again, back to my point, they are hot and you can afford to have them in multiple colors until you can possibly one day get your hands on a pair of real Christian Louboutin's.

Rock it out ladies... just strut and look good doing it.
Is there a rehab group for this? CLoubs Anonymous? *facepalm* Jebus.

I will one day own a real pair. One day.

Wednesday = Fuckedupedness crazy day

Yeah..... I said it. Wednesday = Fuckedupedness. period. And for that.. I have only one cure... stare at pretty shoes and drool. #shoeporn.



Umph. Fucking umph.



I can't help myself... these make me want to do all sorts of naughty things..



And to Thursday, you better not bring out all the crazies. I might cuttabitch. Just sayin'.

Hurraches.. Nothing rhymes. Smuraches??

Hurraches... Oh how I love you. In fact, I totes gave these to my sister being 'nice' and then decided I wanted them back one day when I was in her closet. I believe I then became an 'Indian giver'? tee hee.. yeah. She just rolled her eyes at me and let it go. I'm the baby aka the brat. Tis expected. But I couldn't help it! *whines!* They are hurraches... and for whatever reason, this hippie bone or two in my body lurves them so.



Come on.... these are antiqued green leather hurraches.... I have had them for ummm... 5 years? Yeah. They are made by Bronx and have a leather sole, stacked kitten heel, and are made from the yummiest leather you've put on your foot ever. Thanks. And you may shake your head at the green, but open your eyes.. Color is 1) MORE FUN... I like to live life on the wild side.. 2) Green is like the new brown.. so is yellow. They act as neutrals, adding some subtle variety to your ensemble. Try it. You'll be surprised.

Just one more view....... for your shoe porn pleasure... *drools*

I finally made it home from Dallas.. Thank you Baby Jesus, I am home!!! Except, I'm sort of sad... I mean.. I love Tejas. Period. I didn't really want to come back to Arkansas except I needed to repack my suitcase and take care of some office stuff before my next trip.. I fly out Sunday for New York. Another market. See I do work. A freakin' lot. But I promise shoe porn to come very soon.. like tomorrow at some point.. *crosses heart*

Holy crap... my eyes are crossing already.. It's really not that bad. Although, I will admit that there is at least a box of cds in my office that I've never put into iTunes because they were just THAT bad. Yeah..... I also have this issue with iTunes hiding shit from me. Anyone else have that issue? Like I know I have Frank Sinatra on here.. it's an album I bought on iTunes and it is not listed under my artists. Fucking weird. Anyway.. now for a little shoe porn. :)




These are some of my faves... we'll call them vintage..haha.. These are from Jessica Bennett's Spring 2008 collection. Love the pony. Love the platform. Love that I can wear these any time of year. Love that they also come in black pony with navy trim.. also in my closet.. *drool*

Spring is just around the corner.. seriously. Drag out the allergy meds and tissues, but make yourself feel better and get ready for sandal weather at the same time---Get yo ass to the salon for a mani/pedi. I love fall boots more than, well, ha.. we'll stop that thought there, but yeah I freakin' love them, but bring on some strappy, sexy sandals. I like to show some leg. So come on ladies.. pamper yourselves. Get ready to show some leg. Mreow.

These Shoes.. I want to Lick'em I Like'em So Murch.

Neapolitan ice cream. Yummy. Ben & Jerry's has some of the best. But you might as well smear it on your ass... Oh come on. You know that's where it's goin!



But sorry Ben & Jerry... I've got a fat free, thigh-slimming, rear-lifting version of Neapolitan ice cream now that I've come to love.. Even more.



Yep. These hot mamas from Poetic Licence are scrumptious... and they don't add calories to my day.. Beat that Ben & Jerry's!! Now if you WANT better advice on how to stay trim, I suggest, and by suggest I mean go whether you want to or not, a blog by my pal Fitnesspantz. She keeps even my lazy booty motivated.. and every post relates in some way back to Twilight.. which means *wink wink* Smexy pictures of Rob, PFach, KLutz, Taycob and more! *licks lips*

Sooooooo... back to the shoes. Yes. Focus...Focus. Focus. Focus.

With the trends, because there are so stinkin' many these days,there is a lot of freedom in what we choose to wear. These pumps follow the very popular 'man-tailored' trend that is still evolving after two seasons now. I love the way that Poetic throws a new twist in this idea though... Let's add pink.. and patents.. and let's not only create a 'spectator' style pump, but let's also adorn it with this luscious ruffle to make the other gals in the office really jealous.




Laters Baby.

*Struts off in delish Neapolitan heels*

Oh Deer! Oh My! So I might have a Slutty Side..

Oh Deer! Mamma mia.... *dies of shoegasm* .............




These shoes from Oh Deer! are some of my all time favorites. It might be weird, but whatever, I'm weird.. I refer to them as my 'mullet' shoes. Think about it... Look at the front of the shoe... Serious business.... Then check out the heels.... IT'S A PARTY IN THE BACK!!!! Always. *le sigh* This is why I love them so.







Maybe the second color way in this shoe exemplifies this thought best.. See... Tan/Black. Simple. Lovely.





Annnnnnnnnd..... TA DA!!! PARTY IN DA BACK!!! *shakes bootay!*




The stripey stripes are just all kinds of fun and win! They makes me feel like doing naughty things... maybe they remind me of jail stripes? *shrugs* I don't know.

Little Yellow Happy Sparkly Shoes

Colors definitely affect your mood... and there's no doubt in my mind that my yellow Stuart Weitzman sparkly mary jane's make my mood improve by 100%! You want to peek? You know you're curious.... :)



mmmmm... Don't you feel better already? Just from staring at them?? No?! *scoffs!* What's wrong with you?! Stare harder!!! ;)



It's the small details.... *le sigh*




Stuart Weitzman...Classic.





Kitten heels... 'Mreow!'


Want to hear how much I paid for these jewels? You're gonna die.... $89.00. Yep. Regular somewhere over $200 (redic price for a wholesale shoe rep/shoe store owners kid to pay). Want to know where?? All of my lovely Dallas peeps will appreciate this secret! It's called Fossee's Designer Shoes. Yep. This amazing jewel in Dallas is one of my favorites. The owner, Nancy Fossee, is the sweetest person you'll meet and her sidekick also goes by Nancy. We joke and call them Nancy squared.. They take such pride in their store and it's very evident the second you walk in the door.

Oh! But back to the price! Important!! They specialize in finding you great deals! Think T.J.MAXX, but amazing couture shoes, NOT JUNK.. no no no.. NO JUNK! Only great shoes at even better prices! It's boutique service with amazing discounts. They also carry clothing, purses and jewelry.. what woman wouldn't love it?! Come on! And when you're done shopping, there's a Corner Bakery in the same parking lot! YUM!!! Black Current Iced Tea and the California Panini... Not that I eat there a lot or anything.. We don't have them in Arkansas.. We suck like that. Yeah. Bite me. Or the panini. Whatev.

A Wig Could be Fun..

So with all the random days off for the holidays, I may or may not have forgotten how to err.. fix my hair. Yeah. That's shameful.. I know. But maybe home-chick will let me borrow her wig? Maybe?? Orrrrrr maybe I'll just learn how to deal with mine again. It was nice will it lasted.



Hooker has cute shoes though.. Poetic Licence 'Cover Up'




Oh look! I happen to have the same shoes.... pshhhhh. Of course, I do. These shoes... it was love at first sight for us. Come on.. who could not fall in love with red 'kiss me all over' patent wedges! *swooooooon*

I also love the fact that they are velcro. Yeah. They totally are velcro. No having to fight to get them on in the morning, no buckles *claps!!*, no hassle--PERIOD! Who doesn't love that?!
