HeartFelt

Walkin around  in a gloomy, windy afternoon in the streets of London today...didn't think I was gonna be spendin money, let alone add a member to my beautiful family of soles! But these little beauties came runnin to me as I walked into the Selfridges Louboutin concession. How could I possibly ignore 'em! I think I'm in Love!! Welcome to your new home my loves!! (But damn did the rise in VAT to 20% put a dent in my credit card! Dislike!)

Love Faces

'Love Faces' Trigga Trey Baby

He looks amazin in his 3-piece, the blazer drapes over his shoulders like a canvas, with the beautiful waist coat addin a gentlemen touch to the whole ensemble. Gotta bring 'em back, Classic GQ!

Dubbed 'Calgary'

THE CALGARY BAG:
This unisex, tote-style bag is a balance of fashion and function: stylish and elegant on the outside, functional on the inside, designed to fit the lifestyle of the busy modern gentleman or gentlewoman. Ideal for carrying books, technology and gym clothes over the course of a long day. The bag is entirely padded with neoprene to protect technology, and includes specially designed pockets for Ipad, Blackberries and Iphones.
The bag's name ‘Calgary’ originates from the city where Imran Amed (Founder of Business of Fashion) was born, in Alberta, Canada. The bags were designed and created at The Bill Amberg Studios in London, each being handmade by one of our very own In-house Leather Craftsmen.

£495.00

£950.00

Whenever I imagined a fashion product being named after my hometown- Calgary, I never really pictured it being a bag lookin like this...maybe it's cuz I still haven't grasped the look of this bag just yet...but to me, something's a little off, I appreciate the craftsmanship but for $800/495GBP...even though its handmade by an artisan in London, I can't see how it's worth the pricetag. 

I can see the "Black Pony Skin" being a good seller, along with Tan Woven and the Tan Nubuck ones being a classic with the Heritage theme. The "Crowdsourcing Styles" are safer colors, but who knows...this may become the next "it-bag". Props to you Imran, my fellow Calgarian!
(Ps: Please don't beat me to naming shoes after 'Calgary'!)

I'll admit it, I'm scared to answer love's call, but if it hits you better make it worth the fall...

Fallin-just in

Fall/Winter is rollin in quick, so are all the sizzilin soles this season. From little booties with shearling trims to calf leathered pumps, everythins puttin us in the mood to pack up our bikins and welcome in this Winter air.

I've had my eyes locked on YSL's Iconic platform pumps in grey leopard printed calfskin, since it made its appearance. They're not even available in stores yet, only for pre-order Stateside. Comin at 5.5inches with its 1.5inch hidden platform makes these one of the easiest 5inchers to walk in and I'm not even exaggeratin! Love, love, love!!!

$880 US for preorder @ YSL.com

This winter, we're lookin at a tsunami of little shearling trimmed boots, with one of the best ones from the late Alexander McQueen. When these filled the stands in early July, I told myself these would be a winter style staple and mustttt have!! I'm lovin McQueen's shearling trimmed 'Faithful' buckle-down, zip-up ankle peep-toe boot with antique silver skull zippers. Standin at 115mm with 10 mm interior platform.

Get 'em for $1,245 US/£695.00 @ AlexanderMcQueen.com or Browns


Another pair from the king of skulls that I adore are the Gold Studded 'Faithful' boots, standing also at 115mm with the 10mm platform, givin it a twist to rocker babe chic.

$1,285/£720.00 also @ AlexanderMcQueen.com or Browns

These are also such adorable ones, again from McQueen. I Love the angel wing detailing, with less gold studs just embellished delicately on the heels. These ones stand at a little higher, with a 12.5cm heel, can't guarantee that these will be all That comfortable...but who needs to walk when you can look this good sittin and standin around!

Pricetag on the Angel Faithful Boots come at $1,495/£765.00
