New Goodies

I just received these gorgeous Jeffrey Campbell shoes that I showed you the other day, the lovely El Carmen platform sandals.  They are even more amazing in person then in the photos.  So happy I bought them :)


I also snagged these sweet orange Jacqueline sandals from Karmaloop.com for only $36 (couldn't pass that up)
I also got this really cool clutch at Marshalls a couple weeks ago and I had to share it with you.  I almost didn't buy it, but the finger holes at the top reminded me so much of the Alexander McQueen knuckle duster clutches that I thought paying a mere $17 was well worth it.  Considering I've never seen any other clutch like this before the Alexander McQueen ones.

El Carmen

I apologize for such a big break! So many things to do and so little time!
I thought I would start off by saying that Kate Middleton looked absolutely gorgeous at her royal wedding yesterday! Sarah Burton by Alexander McQueen...HELLOOOO, AMAZING. So elegant and traditional (very similar to Grace Kelly's wedding dress) yet with a wonderful modern twist. And for the record, I don't really mind her sister wearing white (since there are so many people raving about this), she looked beautiful as well, but definitely did not show up her sister at all. It actually went quite well with all the other little bridemaids and made for a perfect palette. Oh yea, and those hats! The guests were rocking these structural and extravagent numbers (check out this slideshow at CBS.com), this is something I wish we did in America more.
Enough about the royal wedding, here is my latest shoe crush... It is called El Carmen by Jeffrey Campbell. I've seen this shoe in various polka dotted colors (too pin upy) and the American flag (no thanks). But then I saw them in this crazy watercolor/tie-dye looking print on Solestruck.com and I died. Have to have them. Solestruck.com was out of my size, DANG! But wait, Karmaloop.com has them too! Yippee!
Oh Jeffrey, you never cease to amaze me...
