Super High Platform = Confused

So, this past weekend, with Rob out of town in Las Vegas at a work seminar, I had 3 solo days starting at 10am Saturday, when I dumped him off at Sea-Tac. Whew!  Saturday, I enjoyed a down day at home - cleaning, tidying up, throwing crap out, and then rented Sex and the City 2.  Perfect day! (Not sure on SATC2, but really loved the fashions and shoes of course.  OHH, and Carrie and Big's apartment was awesome!).

Sunday, after a run to Target, I decide to hit the mall and start some fall shopping.  The only thing I bought was a new down puffy vest at Eddie Bauer that I LOOOOOVEEE...  I could sleep in it! But I did look at everything - shoes/handbags at Nordies, the INC section at Macy's, a once-over at the GAP, Etc.. Etc...  But on my way out, I happen to walk by that inexpensive shoe store, Bakers, and stopped to look at the window display.   Confused.
Am I getting old?  I mean, I am going to be 36 soon, which is certainly not old at all.  But this UBER-high platform pump shoe I do not get at all.  Who walks in this without breaking an ankle? (Did I just say that?)
Am I being a snob b/c it's not Louboutin?   I just don't get this style....  hmmm... 

Amazing boots!!

Thank you Rachel for this tip.  Wow, these are great boots!!!  Nothing bad to say here... No sarcastic comments at all.
Who doesn't love some Pucci!!   Hmm...now, how to afford them...  :-)    For those of you who are dying to own these, CLICK HERE. 

Pink Nightmare

This comes via Renata, who posted THIS CRAZINESS on Facebook today.  I really could not resist blogging about it.  Because, for starters, what is this? A flip flop?  A leg warmer?   Who would wear this?  And the color.... omg... so bad..   No wonder it is on sale.  But $23 is still WAY too much.  I would only buy this for $1.... at a Goodwill.... for some kind of, maybe, 80's themed costume?  

Fall Boots....so many....and other items....

My dentist is in downtown Seattle, in the Medical Dental Bldg, which is convienently located directly behind the flagship Nordstrom.  Today I had a broken filling fixed, so to treat myself, which I was doped up on novicane, I wandered into Nordies to browse....   God, it's hard to only browse here.  :-)
Sooo many awesome shoes for fall, esp the boots I saw.   Also, checked out handbags of course.  I am loving the JPK Paris line, so scoped out a new one - a Messenger style. 
Finally, settled on a more budget-friendly purchase of a new NARS lip gloss.  For those who aren't in the know, NARS is my favorite makeup line.    Here are the things I am loving:

Dear Manolo, Wish I could afford your shoes....

Oh Manolo,

Why do you have to tempt me with a creation such as this?  I cannot always afford your shoes...   I mean, affording you is like a once in a decade thing... or perhaps for my brother's upcoming wedding in June 2011... that might be the occasion you and I merge as one.  Might not be THIS shoe.   But THIS shoe is truely amazing... 

Banana Republic this fall....I'm falling into Grey....

So, I've been known to find a great pair of shoes at BR, from time to time....Sometimes it's a hit, sometimes a miss.  Tonight, I felt like snooping around online.  I found a few contenders for fall.   What is up with me and the grey? :-)   I know purple is really in this season, and I've been seeing grey with it, so have that on my mind.  Also, my brother's wedding colors for 2011 are pewter/silver grey with purple accents, so that must be where this is coming from.... 

Anyway, thought? Discuss?..
