Tory Burch’s 2008 holiday collection was inspired by Truman Capote’s 1966 Black and White Ball, and the same sequined LBDs are fresh 42 years later with these evening booties… |

A black French resin clutch from Tory Burch. Something understated was witty during the last Gilded Age and its five-figure handbags (yeah, a whole month ago).
Now an evening clutch like this just makes sense… |

I’m only hating this Jackie K fox fur cap because I can’t wear it in LA’s 72.5° F without sweating. Time to move to Moscow… |

A simple column heel, paneling detail in the front. Quiet quality, understated elegance, tutto Italiano.
Unlike that Romeo of yours. Push him back in the bedroom, or tell him to button up his man-blouse… |

It’s that subtly sculptural heel that got me. Plus, these Bottega boots are comfy: that one-inch platform eases the arch without telling on you… |

Why would you wear flat Bottega Veneta boots if you didn’t have the legs of Giselle?
Why would you wear flat Bottega Veneta boots if you have the legs of Giselle?
And even if you don’t have the legs of Giselle, why’s that Italian still around… |

Maybe when I’m plastic, divorced, and old (say, 25) I’ll give into the elegance of Louboutin. Till then, I’m all over Giuseppe’s quirky sex… |
Simple, sculptural, and 52% off. Since they don’t come in other colors, buy three pairs. You’ll wear them forever. Or at least until you’re 25… |
Are they pumps? Are they boots? Are they hot? Simply since I ponder them a la Carrie from Monogamy and the City, I hate these… |

Those metallic stripes aren’t the sexiest thing — it’s the practical elastic band behind the knee, that keeps these up. Unlikely sexiness, much like Pyrex… |
Check that shearling trim, buckle, and rubber sole. I love faux practical things, like these over-the-knee boots. And organized religion, and housewives… |
At $1,000 for these over-the-knee boots, I can’t think of a worst investment. Actually, there’s your future baby’s college fund, and the entire stock market… |

Understated just to be bolder, elegant just to punk you, masculinely no-nonsense to just look more frilly and femme. The boot’s play against its heel is brilliant… |
These booties are deadstock punk rock. An Italiano boyfriend gave these to me years ago, that perfect stiletto may be the highest point of our relationship… |
Ugly is the new hot. These shoes are a drop in the ocean of my belief we’re swimming into a new Dark Ages. That, and everyone pretending SJP doesn’t look like a dog… |

22.Jan.2008 DAVIS by Ruthie Davis boots $625, ShopBop.com

Sometimes the building of life takes just as much stripping.
Wiping out any grays for a bright white of perspective.
Punching out holes so you can see through people’s bull.
Stripping your reach so it’s a most focused aim for the sky.
So get naked.

Sluts are people who don’t love sex.
Sluts rarely realize that making lust is making a trade of respect. Sluts never know that sex is the top expression of admiration, that an orgasm is pure pleasure achieved appreciating the one you’re with.
Sluts don’t do 99 dudes they esteem. Sluts sleep with a single loser they barely understand; they’re missionaries about monogamy with partners who never value them.
Sluts lead an empty life full of unchosen, Platonic pals. Sluts–
Won’t wear f**k-you shoes like these.
