I bought these Stella McCartney wooden mules new on eBay. What kills me is the way the wooden heel curves up to hug your heel — it exaggerates the arch of your foot, and stretches your legs for miles.

What also kills me is that these Stella McCartney wooden mules were selling for £35 on Yoox.com…

So I’ve realized a $2,000 vintage Halston cashmere jumpsuit is ridiculous as loungewear for a plane.

But a neon pink Stella McCartney cashmere jumpsuit? So practical, so choice…

In a shiny, soft gray, with a big black button and baby platform, something about this Stella McCartney rubber wedge boots vibes a little 35-year-old girl.

But the real crime is that these aren’t leather…

Wanting: Stella McCartney Espadrille with Closed Toes

Espadrilles are choice for summer: an ambitious arch is easy to wear when its woven into a relaxed wedge.  I’m a sucker for closed-toe espadrilles: I like the classic contrast with the open back…

Wearing: Stella McCartney Espadrilles with Scarf Ties

I bought these Stella McCartney espadrilles on sale at Intermix and wore them every day on my vacay. The knotted scarf ties are great, but what really got me was that woven wedge.  I love the lines; it exaggerates the arch of the shoe…

Hating: Flat Stella McCartney Espadrilles

All you need to know is that these Stella McCartney espadrilles are flat… ]]> http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2009/07/07/stella-mccartney-espadrilles-k-is/feed 4 http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2007/11/15/stella-mccartney-thigh-high-boots http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2007/11/15/stella-mccartney-thigh-high-boots#comments Thu, 15 Nov 2007 14:46:15 +0000 Kristopher http://www.kristopherdukes.com/2007/11/15/stella-mccartney-thigh-high-boots If you ever think marrying money is more respectable than menaging with men for money, remember this:

Though I’m convinced, should pit bulls ever have the power, they’d pit human against human in a boxing ring for major money entertainment–so it sounds bizarre–my vintage mink coat shed a tear when seeing a photo of a mangled dog (then the tear froze, because the said coat is in storage in downtown, waiting out LA’s ridiculously fabulous weather for a climate more close to the temperature of my heart).

Though I only like Ms. Mac because she makes gorgeous things–if anything, Stella’s promo for PETA made me wrinkle my nose as much as a pair of chunky-heeled Marc-y Marc Jacobs pumps–I’m slapping up this vegan metallic Stella McCartney bag to raise awareness about Vick’s dogfighting charges reaching court today.

Well, plus, the Stella McCartney bag is boss.

Leatherless or baby lambskin, I dig this metallic, crackling canvas bag for its four-pocket function meeting high-fashion form, for its detachable shoulder strap making practical a sporty clutch, I dig Stelly Mac’s mignon, money bag –

Because it’s hot.
