Neon Shoes Are IT

Yo. So, this Saturday I was in the Upper East Side doing GOD knows what, and I waited approximately the orbital period of Hayley's Comet for a 6 train. Despite a major case of GMTFOOH-itis, the wait was not for naught because observed at least six chicks wearing some refreshingly awesome neon shoes, which begat my own quest for summery neon and pop-colored shoes. Pair them with another bright bold for some color-blocking action, or with a neutral. LOVE a neon-neutral combo. So let's DO this:


($227, Diane Von Furstenberg, Zappos.com)
I actually wouldn't be mad at these bring orange Diane Von Furstenberg heels paired with a purple, red or bright pink top and some grey or black skinny jeans. Try it! You might like it. What's the worst that could happen? Are you trying to put your mothah in an early grave? Nu?


($140, Melissa, Karmaloop.com)
I want to say that the white cat eye stripe up the back of these Melissa wedges is the best part about them, but that's like saying the hair is the best part of Andrew Garfield, which is really just selling him short. Perfect with a peach or blush maxi dress, you know? Or a bold turquoise.

More cute rubbery realness from Melissa. The double buckle detail is worlds away from the jellies of my youth.



($51, Marais)
Normally I don't fucks with kitten heels due to the whole thick-stack-on-a-short-stick effect they create, but these Marais heels offset that potential disaster with a slimming ankle strap.

($34.99, ModCloth.com)
I probably couldn't sit let alone walk in these purple phenomenons, but if you can, you should.

($244, Chie Mahara, NeimanMarcus.com)
These cork and yellow leather Chie Mahara heels are beautiful enough on my tiny little computer screen. I can only imagine how lush they look IRL.

($484, Loeffler Randall)


These Loeffler Randall x Suno Erin lace-up wedges aren't really neon, but they are beautiful. I like how from afar the pattern looks like googly eyes. You don't see shoes with googly eyes nearly enough these days.



($278, Ground Zero, Shopfatal.com)
Oh HAVE MERCY. Clear vinyl neon and GREY Oxfords? With BREATHING HOLES? Can you kick it? YES WE CAN!

These Tweezers Are $100

($100, Tweezerman, Neimanmarcus.com)
In case you were wondering what $100 tweezers look like, well here's what Tweezerman's $100 pluckers look like. Somewhere, probably in Brentwood, Paris Hilton is reporting a beauty supply robbery.

YESSS! Neiman Marcus Free Ship Code!

Ohai! Had to quickly share that there's a free shipping code for NeimanMarcus.com, which adds up if you shop at Neiman Marcus, which I rarely do, except I just did.

The free shipping code is OCTSHIP, and it expires 10/25/2010 at 11:59pm, so you have an entire work day to spend pondering what to buy.

I got Tom Ford Black Orchid rollerball. Pennies in the world of Neiman Marcus, but since I'm balling on a beauty budget, free shipping only sweetens the deal.

I Dream Of Diane Von Furstenberg

($725, Diane Von Furstenberg, DVF.com)
I both dream of and die for this Diane Von Furstenberg navy sequin coat from the Diane Von Furstenberg Fall 2010 collection. Well, I die figuratively for it. Not literally. No coat is worth actually dying for. I knew I loved sequins, but I never knew I could love navy so much. I'm constantly amazing myself, aren't I?

Please also note the excellence of the Axelle DVF sequined cardigan, which comes in black and navy. Normally I'd go for black sequins, but since I already own a black sequined cardigan and a black sequined t-shirt, I'd go for navy. Also, navy's apparently having a moment this fall.

Anyway, since I'm now clearly on a DVF binge, please enjoy my grown-up girl dress that I bought this summer. It's the DVF Anina khaki silk shirtdress, and it looks casual, but it's really not. It's basically a gorgeous earthy canvas that you can style approximately 17,032 different ways.

I bought my DVF Anina dress (on sale!) at Diane T., which is a really nice boutique in Cobble Hill. It's kind of like a touch on the more conservative/mainstream side than is Bird. And a hair more affordable.


Finally, I TRULY think someone should buy me this Diane Von Furstenberg leather wrap dress (!!!!). I've worked very hard this year, I've been a very good girl, and I always finish all of my broccoli before asking for dessert.

I'm Breaking My No Wedges Rule For These Alexandre Birmans

($795, Alexandre Birman, Neimanmarcus.com)
Usually I live life in the wedge-free zone, not because I'm not into wedges but only because I can't walk in them. However, I'd gladly break my wedge ban for these gorgeous Alexandre Birman (the Brazilian shoe designer who CAN'T NOT make sexy/exotic safari-from-the-comfort-of-an-SUV heels) python wedges. They're so gorgeous --- delicate-looking yet tough -- and so visceral that they almost look alive. Bluefly has a few pairs of Alexandre Birman, but it's Just. Not. The Same.

HUZZAH! Rachel Comey Pre-Fall Booties!

Ooh YAY! Direct your attention, will you, to Rachel Comey's Pre-Fall (isn't that the same thing as late-summer?) clunky, chunky heeled booties.

($335, Rachel Comey, Neimanmarcus.com)
Extra special hearts go to the double buckle motorcycle-inspired Barbaro. Order them (for me) now at Neiman Marcus.
