TheseLouboutin Sobek peek-toe platforms are insane. I'm not a massive Louboutin fan only because there are plenty of other brands/designers that make shoes that I do love more and people wear less (meaning less trendy), but these Sobek's are so rock-n-roll that of course you know I'm loving them! You know I love a shiny over-the-top glammed-up heel. And these definitely fit that bill. The site says "in Greek Mythology 'Sobek' is the God of the Nile, decorated with a crocodile crown he protected the Egyptians from evil predators." I like it. But I don't know if I like it enough to throw down $1500. :) I prefer the green, especially if the Nile is involved. But the silver is pretty amazing.♡
the perfect early xmas gift!
can you say glam rock?
i found this photo somewhere online...and even though it's not the official shot of the shoe, it really is a much much better look at the shoe...how hot is this shoe in silver when you see it here reflecting and breaking up the light? just gorrrrrgeous.
HI....we're back. Thanks to all for sticking around for that week of technical mayhem. It was sort of nice to not be on a computer for a week, though. I have to admit. I hadn't done that for maybe a decade. But I did miss my blog. :) Anyway...thanks and so sorry about that again! Now onto the post!
So...what did y'all think of the Christian Dior 2011 Couture show sans Galliano? I read a lot of mean comments about it...even one that said this looks like "sabotage"....and that may be true. I didn't think the actual pieces were terrible. One girl said it looked like Primark (a UK bargain department store) and not couture at all. I wouldn't go that far. I thought it was a fun collection. It wasn't really couture to me. And it definitely was NOT Dior at all. I'm sure someone up there thought the same thing. But the show had to go on. Galliano is a hard act to follow....whether you like him or not. He is the reason Dior brought in billions of dollars of revenue. And it wasn't by accident. So have a look at this one and definitely comment if you like.
On another note, the Mens Spring Summer 2012 Galliano collection was pretty gorgeous and very cheeky, with the final two models dressed and working it like Galliano himself. I don't know what that was meant to say, but I took at it as respect the designer and a big finger to anyone who thought he wouldn't have a presence in the show. Have a look at that one, too.......I thought the entire production, energy, designs, et al, were GORGEOUS. I don't know what I was thinking, but I actually expected Galliano to show up at the end!♡
TWO of my favorite things in the world...Suzi Quatro (one of my all-time favorite rockstar girls) and Biba (yeah...I post about Biba a lot). This just got uploaded to the Barbara Hulanicki YouTube channel...Check it OUT! This is Suzi performing "Devil Gate Drive" at the Biba store!!!♡
