    Fucking Gilt starts their sales at 7am Hawaii time and fucked if I'm going to wake up that early for that. Plus last time they sent me the wrong bag and I ended up paying $20 shipping basically just for a damn belt.

    I have no idea of what the shoes in question look like, but its hard for me to imagine anything "woven" or "orangey" working with a grey wool suit. Maybe with some kind of lightweight summer suit in cream or something like that.

    They messed 2 of my orders too. Normally I'd be pissed but both times they issued me a full refund AND $25 credits.

    PCMR - I still stand by what I said, so don't get any funny ideas!

    I sometimes feel like brown and gray are a much easier colours to work with than black, especially gray because its hue can change depending on what it's with. Brown is more difficult and I would never stand at my closet and go "bright yellow, bright blue and.....brown!" You know? On paper - no way, but it works here.
    This trend of thick strappy black shoes with any damn thing bugs me to no end, especially with light summer wear. Black does not go with everything!

    Damn...triple post?!?! WTF?!?! Sorry, folks.


    Anyways...

    Who makes these on the left, Bassie? I'm feeling 'em, though I'll probably be the only one as per usual.

    I don't know the designer, but I found these which look really similar but uglier, and make me doubt if they're really Balenciaga. One might be a knock-off of the other. You can try asking the blog owner for details.

    Whoa....how did you just find those based off the pic??

    I know this is not heel-related, but oh well...

    I'm really liking this belt buckle (for obvious reasons), but then I found out it's Hermes (which makes it even more appropriate) and I REFUSE to pay $600+ for a goshdarn belt buckle! I am not against a knockoff though. Anybody know a reputable site I can get a silver one from? Sno??

    I just did a couple of Google searches with key words such as orange, blue, ankle strap, wrap strap, satin strap, etc. until I got something that looked like it. I didn't find the original, nor did I find the blog you got the photo from.

    I'm not into belt buckles, but your style is much bolder than mine. Hermes does make fabulous scarves, though I'd never pay for one.

    Got it from here, but it's just a series of (incredibly awesome summertime) photos. Worth the time if you have 10 minutes to spare.

    Probably one of the "prettiest" pairs from the current collection. Check out the others: http://www.balenciaga.com/int/en/Default.aspx?nav=/collections/women/accessories/shoes

    Thanks Almond!

    #8 = the pair the lady on the right is wearing in the pic above.

    Mystery solved, Bassie!

  • bassiebassie 11,710 Posts
    #12, #16 and the pair I posted a couple of pages back in blue/green/white are my favourites.

    Nay on the boots, Herm. Maybe on a go-go dancer at a rodeo-themed night at the 21 'n over. The Lego wall in the background would be almost cool if it wasn't ruined by the heart. The best part about the photo is the seafoam green of the shoe boxes. At least girlie has a nice pedicure, tan and legs, but then again, you would never risk disappointing us with a photo of cankled legs and janky pedi.

    Hilarious.

    I'm pretty sure those are some yet-to-be-released Melody Ehsani boots. I think it's an interesting design but I bet someone can do better with the mesh idea. Plus the model (which I believe is her too) has some really nice calves and feet from what I can see.
