Lust vs Must: Clogs


We've been talking and thinking about clog mules since Karl Lagerfeld's Spring 2010 Chanel show.  One of the gorgeous pairs seen on the Chanel runway is definitely on our LUST list.  But for only $100 you can get a look alike pair from Aldo!  Happy shopping!

This limited edition Christian Louboutin heel is nearly 7,000 dollars. Louboutin created 36 of these queenly heels inspired by the great Marie Antoinette. The shoe is an open-toe platform high heel in satin, embroidered with colorful beads by the house of Jean-Francois Lesage, edged with a ruffling of chiffon and velvet (pictured above)

Fierce shoe alert: The Gucci Iman triple ankle strap sandal

[Gucci Spring 2009 ad]

How sexy/fierce/gorgeous/awesome (insert adjective here) are these shoes?? But since I am not a socialite or actress, I'm not sure how practical they would be (not to mention the 1,200 dollar price tag). But a girl can dream right?


Iman Triple Ankle strap sandal, Gucci. $1,275.00

Raising the Bar- Above the knee boots



This season I've been noticing a rising trend of women wearing above the knee boots. As a Culturista with a self-proclaimed boot obsession, I am dying for a pair. I like them paired with tights/leggings and a tunic, or alternatively with a dress or mini-skirt. If you are feeling a bit edgy, pair the boots with high waisted shorts and black opaque tights.

Love it or Hate it?

Bootie Bootie Bootie Rockin Everywhere

Doesn't it feel good to Pay-less?

One thing I have had to adjust to accordingly living here in New York is eliminating shopping as an activity. Shopping for clothes has been replaced by purchases made at glamorous spots such as Bed Bath & Beyond and Fairway Supermarket. After holding out for 3 months I finally broke down. Summer had become a distant memory and people seem to be in full-fledged boot and coat mode. It was time for me to take action. A little bird told me that Payless (yes...payless) had a trendy collection of boots and booties. Let it be known that I think the last time I was in Payless was the early 90s when I made a purchase of faux mary jane doc martens and my feet were a size 2 kids. True story.

I ventured out like the inquisitive Culturista that I am to do some "research."

The findings: A goldmine for the financially challenged. Dozens of boots and all under $40.


$29.99- faux grey suede. Comfortable enough to walk 30 blocks without complaining. Seriously.



$34.99- Nuff said.

Please see Lady D's Lust vs. Must. In all seriousness, I had to visit 4 different branches and ultimately went on the Payless "Crawl" before I found this precious pair.

Zip this!


The term "crush" cannot even begin to explain my sentiment towards this stunning form of footwear. The shoe horniness is back and in full force. I have been waiting for months to find a knock off because unfortunately...buying a pair of Louboutins is a non-option. These are hot hot hot and i love them. Maybe when Nicky is done she can toss them in my direction...
