I really really loved the styling at the
Miu Miu Spring Summer 2012 show. Call it cowgirl, call it prairie, call it
buffalo gal...it was full-on granny/western or granny Western. I haven't read anything about the show, so I don't know the real inspiration/them for the collection. But if it
ain't Western, then I'm nuts.
I kind of liked the greasy tough girls Miuccia put on the runway this season with Prada and Meow Meow. It was so fresh and fun and anti-what everyone deems "sexy". But the boots in the Miu Miu collection...they were really amazing. Crossed somewhere between a cowboy boot and a sixties booty,
I'm calling them Prairie Booties. The colors and detailing...even
cowgirls get the blues for shoes, but these were also extremely Rock-n-Roll...they were
Jimi Hendrix and
Janis Joplin and anyone who walked out of 1969. Which makes them even more amazing. I didn't care for the mules, though. I've never been a fan of them. Maybe once when I was super super young. But they're so 80s and they are not sexy. They'll never be sexy. A mule with a pointy toe looks like a work shoe. Like a working shoe from the 80s. Not a hot Rock-n-Roll Glamrock hot mama prairie booty! I'm also including bags as they were amazing little "grannies" (which is what I am calling them)...so vintage and cute. I love a coin purse bag. That's a very very 60s thing, too. I have a 60s bag that is like a giant coin purse and I LOVE that bag. I can't believe I own it and I don't know why people haven't duped it. I'll take some pics of it for you and put it on here sometime. But the Miu Miu ones, especially the ones with the
smocking....were lovely lovely. Lovely.♡

I think we will have to agree to disagree on the boots, cause I think they are heinous...
