in excess

§ September 1, 2009

(Saturday night hijinks...)

I'm pretty darn sure Balmainia will never die down, at least not with me anyway. I waited quite a while for the perfect alternative version to the infamous crystal embellished sandals to come out, and these Steve Madden ones were it. One hot mess of leather, studs, and jewels. And the heel. Ridiculous heights has always been top of my checklist for shoes.

Materialistic ramblings aside, I'm so excited to have been asked to work on an upcoming project with a certain very talented and creative individual. Don't mean to sound horribly cryptic, but unfortunately that's all I can say for now! Things are still in the early planning stages, but I will definitely update when I can.

Also, love this outfit. Those shoes....mmm...I have the Siren version (for some reason, the suede called to me moreso than the leather option).

p.s. I have an award for you at my blog...check it out :)

Have a great day; 9/03/2009 3:20 AM

Kandace wrote:: One of the reasons I buy shoes is because of the heel. At least 5 inches and I'm in love. I always want to be taller. It makes me feel more powerful and in charge. Anyway, as always you take amazing pictures. Not to mention that skirt is adorable.; 9/03/2009 8:43 AM
