i rarely blog on fashion.

not b/c i don't love it...but moreso because I don't keep up with the trends. I'm inexperienced. Certainly wouldn't want to mislead anyone with my wayward, flighty attempts at sartorial commentary. But, if there were ever a day I need retail therapy, it's today. And it comes at the most inopportune time. I'm going on vaca next week...and I plan to shop shop shop!

Anyway, against my better judgement and knowing I need to hold out and be patient, I sauntered into this little shop on Mott St. yesterday, and I was more than tempted. I had to unglue myself from a perfect pair of green wedges and carefully-but-swiftly back out of the store. My regrets to the eager, friendly shop-lady. So today, I thought, "maybe they have a web site," and I found it, as you can see. whyyyy, oh whyyyy do they have a web site? The last thing I need is for those green wedges to be mine at the touch of a button. pray for me. (aren't they lovely, here in camel?)

I love this website too. I'm amazed, I never made my way into the shop. Not just amazed. . . actually quite pleased. It would have been bad. I'm about to post a new blog post about the badness, I speak of. . .

$231??!! for summer wedges that might break, tear or scratch - you might get gum stuck on them - or pigeon poo! $231 is almost a ticket from ny to london!

you know I understand the pleasure and pain of shoes!

By the way, they have a pair of white flat sandals that I heart. But one shoe addiction at a time. LOL

yes, etoilee and janelle, it's an awful addiction. One i'm in treatment for...

hannah dear--i'm NOT buying them...and yes, you're right, they cost as much as a roundtrip ticket to see you. shoes or hannah? shoes or hannah? lol. Anyway, I think these are on sale at the store for $99...yet, I'm practicing restraint.

ooh those are tasty!

btw...you know you are super fly. no need for modesty. lol

The fact your shoes were photographed for the sartorialist - twice! - is a good indicator of your style :)
