Wheelin\' Around
>> I didn't get many toys as a child and it seems like I'm trying to desperately make up for this in my old age. I'm not usually one for 'gadgets', the word already conjuring up useless office desk toys, cheap blinkin...

Hide Your Face, Show Your Feet
>> There are few shoe designers that I post about where I'm using lookbook images. Most of the time, it's flat pack shots that leave the imagination of onlookers to do the work and envision the rest of the ensemble to go with the sh...

Slave to the Heavy Machine
The term 'Running in Heels', be it a reference to the cringingly bad reality TV show or just as a phrase by itself never fails to conjure up images of women going into poodle-mode and 'running' (if you can call it that...) in tip ...

Sculpted Scrimp n\' Splurge
I feel like I should be constructing some kind of Scrimp vs. Splurge list with the title that I've used for this post, the type of thing in magazines that always leaves me thinking that the scrimp option is nowhere near as nice as the splurge an...

Secret Spots
Quite a few shops in Hong Kong operate a no-photo policy in their stores so sadly anything that I'm woo-ing and coo-ing about isn't going to make it on the blog unless I come home with a purchase. I didn't realise the Rise Commercial...
Denim Feet
>> Keepin' it short and shrifty today, short and SHRIFTY. I have a deluge of photos to post, video footage to edit and that hasn't even got anything to do with the mass of press days that most of London's fashion peeps are plou...
Pay Half Trimmings
I do realise that the title of this post sounds like a subject line in a spam email but bear with me. Actually come to think of it, thanks for bearing with the irregular posting times (thanks to the GMT for closing the gap on the time difference......
Heller Stella
>> Hopefully some of you Londoners made out to the Stella McCartney sample sale (apologies for not pre-announcing it beforehand but I only knew about it at the last minute...) early because by the time I arrived, an hour in from the start time,...
Booted for Leaf Crunching
>> I'd been threatening it for a while but when Clarks Desert Boots 60th Anniversary set of boots hit the stores, I had to succumb to at least one pair and in accordance with my summer's fixation with all things......
Kron Feet
>> Kron Kron shoes have hopefully been sending waves of blogger's delight despite their slightly complex website which they promise will be revamped. I wasn't going to make the tough choice of picking a pair until later on in the year...
Diversify your Feet
I know it's poor form of me to hulk my suitcase and me all the way to Paris only to go and blog about British designers who I could well and easily see back in London but in the case of running around showrooms in between shoes, with everything ...
They will see us waving from such great heights, "Come down now", they'll say...
>> Like I said in the previous post, I've finally woken up from some silly motion-going stupor and have rediscovered my fashion enthusiastic ju-ju-juice. Yesterday we took a little detour to Digitaria, definitely up there in the most-interesting fash...
Rock this Horse
>> I know the shoe fest is a bit tiresome but I did want to make a reMARK about these Marc Jacobs shoes at the show as Katie Grand made a comment about them saying, "This is why I wear......
London S/S 10 Shoe Fest
>> What with a backlog of London Fashion Week stuff to plough through, I've had to try and be methodical and break it down and what better way to start it off than with a good batch of shoe porn.......
Follow the Delayed Path
>> So I kind of broke the Fannie Schiavoni blogger viral lookbook chain yesterday by not posting promptly at 5pm GMT.... I'm an utter idiot but in my next post, you'll see that I have good reason (or actually, if......
Whos the Big Red Wolf?
>> Turns out Typepad doesn't seem to want to function properly in JFK so I'll have to New York deets away tomorrow. Until then, this preview pic from London shoe/accessories label Red by Wolves has just dropped into my inbox......
New York Fashion Week S/S 10 Deets Day 1
>> I do realise I'm posting at the speed of light and so apologies for lack of SPAG checking or just general coherency. I just know that once shows/presentations PROPERLY kick off, I might want to go cry in Starbucks......
Calling in on Kron
I had meant to post about Kron by KronKron's shoes ever since seeing them on a) The Coveted and b) The Neverending Story and perhaps purchase a pair or two. The choice has been baffling me given that their online......
Minna's Masks
This came as a bit of a shock when it landed in my inbox. Minna Parikka, creator of cute patent shoes with a slightly retro vibe and prim and pretty knitwear has gone and used broken up shoe parts to......
Pedal to the Metal
When I first saw the Acne S/S 10 collection images with of course the show stopping metal-work pants catching everyone's eye, I was racking my brains thinking what it reminded me of other than the obvious...i.e. Balenciaga's robo leggings. No,......
The Non-Sequential/Sequins/Shoes Post
After a week or so of umming and aaahing over what was disposable or not, I basically had another blast from the wardrobe past and so ensued a week of shrieking in a geeky fashion "Oh my goooood! I wore......
Shine a Jewel in to my Eye
>> Today is image-a-flow-flow because weirdly my fingers have cramped up overnight... which sounds like a complete lame lie you tell teachers to extend deadlines but it's the god-forsaken honest truth. I'm currently tapping the keys in a particularly...
