Tory Burch Holiday Collection K Is…

08.Dec.2008
Tory Burch Holiday Collection 2008, Brylyn Booties

Wanting.

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…

Tory Burch Holiday Collection 2008, French Resin Clutch

Wearing.

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…

Tory Burch Holiday Collection 2008, Fox Fur Hat

Hating.

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…

Bottega Veneta Boots K Is…

24.Nov.2008
Bottega Veneta Boots, Knee High

Wanting

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…

Bottega Veneta Boots, Ankle

Wearing

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…

Bottega Veneta Boots, Flat

Hating

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…





Giuseppe Booties K Is..

21.Oct.2008

Wanting.

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…

Wearing.

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…

Hating.

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…




Over-the-Knee Boots K Is…

11.Oct.2008

Wanting.

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…

Wearing.

Check that shearling trim, buckle, and rubber sole. I love faux practical things, like these over-the-knee boots. And organized religion, and housewives…

Hating.

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…



Booties Your K Is…

11.Aug.2008

Wanting.

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…

Wearing.

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…

Hating.

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…

DAVIS by Ruthie Davis
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.

[DAVIS by Ruthie Davis boots via GetTRIO.com]

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.

Should Santa bring you coal come XXXmas, use it to make up a smoky eye.

Life’s short.

The skirt you wear with your Roberto boots should be, too.

XXXO,
