sunday style - B Brian Atwood

I've been eyeing these amaaazing wine color B Brian Atwood Paramour Suede Booties - available at shopbop for a good while now and had to share them with you. Perfection right? Sadly, they aren't available in my size and with Christmas around the corner I'll have to find something else to add to my wish list which won't be very difficult but I can't say that getting over the gorgeous booties will be easy.

sole mate - jeffrey campbell zoe wedge

 Jeffrey Campbell Zoe Wedge $235 available at SSENSE 

I seem to have an obsession with anything Jeffrey Campbell, pretty sure he's my sole mate...just saying! These beautiful reptile embossed wedges are so necessary in my fall/winter wardrobe. I've been on a shopping diet for almost 3 months and it's very likely that these wedges are going to be my big splurge once it's all over - 20 days and counting. Yes, making a big purchase almost defeats the purpose of my shopping diet but try restraining yourself from shopping for 3 months and let me know how you feel.

During my last shopping trip I couldn't help but notice the abundance of floral prints this season and so this spread is a perfect representation of how I felt standing in what I call the Garden Section of Forever 21. I found a great pair of peep toe pumps (featured below) in - you guessed it floral print! I would also like to add that they are sturdy thanks to the chunky heel and surprisingly comfortable, not bad for $28!

sole mate - jeffrey campbell riddle wedge

During a recent shopping trip I spotted these wonderfully amazing and crazy Jeffrey Campbell Riddle Paint wedges! Want them. Need them. Got to have them immediately!!! Anyways, I exercised some self control and postponed my purchase. However while searching for my new obsession online I came across another pair of amazing splatter paint heels below. Gorgeous right? They're sold out everywhere but I must point out that they look very similar to the Alexander Wang Dakota lace-up booties that I've drooled over many many times online AND in person.

Pierre Hardy $1470

Zara $129

Above is Zara's take on the Pierre Hardy Color Block Heels. The Pierre Hardy's retail for $1470 while Zara's go for $129 - HUGE difference. Zara is a great place to find designer inspired pieces without the expen$ive price tag however I am never against a splurge here and there.
Final verdict on luxe vs. less --> The original Pierre Hardy's are far more beautiful (in color and detail) especially in comparison to Zara's version but if you can't live without the Zara heels once you try them on I would encourage you to get them anyways, they'll be really fun for the summer time.

happy new year!

As we say goodbye to 2010 and welcome 2011 I felt it was most appropriate to post the perfect finishing touch to any new year's outfit. These fabulous Christian Louboutin Pigalili pumps make me wish I had celebrated the new year in style instead of order chinese food and sip champagne with my boyfriend and close friends. Although I had a low-key celebration, I spent it with loved ones so no complaints here....well maybe just one --> my shoe collection is now in desperate need of these pumps! 

Wishing you all the best in the new year and hoping you stick to your resolutions :)
