Want some naked with your shoes?

Now I have seen it all. Galliano used naked women as heels. Funny how these sculpted figures have rotund shapes: large breasts, butts and tummies. Unlike the models wearing them.
Would you wear these?
I am really into the pink version but it has more to do with the colour rather than the naked lady. What I really like about these shoes are the straps; they remind me of soft twisted metal. Very sensual and slithery.

Fell in love with Balmain

Call it rock 'n roll trashy chic. Kate Moss meets Keith Richards. This is the first collection where I have wanted every single piece of clothing presented. And those shoes. Those shoes are rock star shoes. All spiky and shimmery and metal.
The jackets are perfectly tailored; a bit military mixed in with vintage Michael Jackson; damaged and frayed jeans are back; bright bandage wrapped dresses look new again. Never has the 80s looked so good.
Christophe Decarnin has created the ultimate party-girl look and I can't wait to see people wearing these clothes and the clothes inspired by this collection. What a great way to start Paris Fashion Week!

Michael Jackson in his Thriller days. Do you think it's ok to wear ripped jeans to work? I declare it the new uniform.

I like the stiff, wide shoulders; they aren't like the massive padded shoulders we saw in the 80s power suits.

Hervé Leger has nothing on these bandage dresses.

This one reminds me of our muscles; all twisted about and stretched.

Gotta love a train. This would be a hot wedding dress, no?

The lace trend is still going strong.

Deconstructed leather and ripped jeans are next season's official look.

The colour makes me swoon. And that belt is gorgeous.

The Night Before The Rain

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! Its been raining all day today and I just can't stand the rain anymore--this rain started from the early morning up until now--such a day!

I wasn't able to post these pictures earlier--my fault! :) I went to this Southern Brazilian steakhouse called Fogo de Chao for a friend's birthday dinner last night--pretty nice, lots of assorted meats, great salad, and fruit bar.

The one unique thing about this restaurant is that you get this round card that has a green and red side--you are suppose to put the green part up which signifies that you want the next item that they are serving or the red, which mean that your not interested in the current dish. It was fun. We ate and chatted away.

So far, this is how my weekend is going apart from the rainy day today, I am having a good time and looking forward to tomorrow because my church is moving to the new building tomorrow!!!!



Hope your weekend is going well!!! Be safe!
:)
