I Feel Gloved

Anyone who has met me after 1998 will know how much I want to be Carrie Bradshaw.  I love accessories & this look always makes me smile.  These is nothing I love more than the edge that thigh-high hosiery & cropped gloves lend to any ensemble.  I wish this look had more air time, but a few seconds was all it took to leave an indelible impression. 

The Girl...

I love Mara Rooney's new look.  Everything looks so much more impactful with her new hair color & cut.  Someone joked she would be stuck with that haircut until 2015 if this movie does well.  I'm glad it looks like it'll be sticking around for a few more years.

Deeper Shade of Sole

Whenever they ask what kind of shoe I am, I don't even have to think about it.  I am most definitely a platform!  And I love these Prada platforms.  It's all the in details & aside from the obviously cool gold ankle cuff, what I love about Prada shoes is the color of the soles.  They are the perfect, luxurious shade of rosy pink.  While there is an obvious appeal to Louboutin's red soles, Prada (& Alaia for that matter) have the most luxurious color on their soles that you can tell were carefully picked as their signature. 

On the Fringe

These are two of my Prada lost loves.  I didn’t even attempt to get the dress, but I was always on the fence on the tote.  I worried I wouldn’t carry it.  I’m not too much of a tote bag girl…  However, I always still come back to these pictures & look at them with a longing.  Maybe one day…

B.A.N.A.N.A.S.

When I first saw the Prada fruit prints, I wasn’t buying it.  I thought it was silly & way too quirky.  However, I have to admit that it’s growing on me.  I realized I was fully smitten when the banana manicure made me smile.
