Run It Back

/

Hola mi gente. It's been a minute I know. The last time we had a Shoe Files moment, I was living in Lala Land. Though I loved it, my time was up and I returned to my stomping grounds of NYC. Something great came out of that experience and I hope to be sharing it very soon.

Some tangible lessons - Fear not! Just do and respond to your vibration with the universe. Move as God tells you to. Everything will be alright.

With all of that said, we are back in full effect. Shoe Files is slated to become a regularly updated feature to the site that I hope you will enjoy. In the mean time and in between time, check out my wears and links on where to buy similar styles.

The Look: Biker Babe Chic Shades: Ray-Ban Clubmaster Shirt and Pleather Pants: H&M Boots: Chanel Bag: 31 Hour Phillip Lim Coat: J.Crew

Hey lovas. Happy Holidays! I hope this season of comfort and joy is treating you all well. Its been a couple weeks since my last post, but fret not. Mama has been working hard, long and fast and furiously to bring you the final Shoe Stories installation of 2014. In the mean time, in between time, here's a cute a little Shoe Files post for ya. Enjoy!

This was the only item from the Isabel Marant x H&M collection I purchased last year and let me tell you - it was worth it! I most certainly have gotten my cost per wears out of it. 

The Look: Sweater: Isabel Marant x H&M collection sweater; Pants: H&M Leather look pants; Hat: My daddy's Yankee fitted; Shoes: Marni x H&M collection

Location: La officina again

I woke up this morning complaining about not having enough pairs of plain black pumps et voila, a lightbulb went off in my head and I remembered these luscious Marni x H&M collection lucite heel pumps that were nicely stowed away in my closet. This is why you can NEVER have enough shoes - your lightbulb moments need to come true...often!

The shape and geometry of these babes are perfect! 

My legs are so damn short and it shows - dah well. Check out the sleek nicely rounded point of those shoes!

The Switch Up Queen

Hey lovas, how's it going? Missed ya mucho! Welcome to the first installation (I <3 this word) of Shoe Files. I'll be sharing quick snapshots of all my favorite 'stomp and shout' worthy looks, keeping a 'file' of my fav shoes and 'tracking' where my shoes have been. 

I've been going back and forth on whether or not I wanted to launch this feature on the site. See, I don't want this to be your typical style blog. My passion is in really telling the story of others that love shoes just as much as I do. BUT then I thought, why would you listen to me if you don't even have a chance to enter my own closet?!?! *Light Bulb Moment* Welp the wait is over dolls and dames. I caved!

The Look: Shoes: Alexander McQueen; Leather Moto Jacket: Vintage Schott; T-Shirt: The GAP x Visionnaire collaboration; Leather Skirt: Vintage

Location: Around the corner from work
