More Favorites from Fall 2010

Aquilano Rimondi
 
Rochas
I love the clothes and the big hair, hate the shoes.
 

 
Christian Dior
(Click on each picture for a larger image.  I love the eighteenth century feel of this collection.  
It reminds me of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.)
 

  

  

 
Balmain
(I am surprised that Balmain actually included some practical business suits in its Fall 2010 collection.
Again, click on each picture for a larger image.)

Essential Shoes for Women


A well-balanced shoe collection should have each of the above shoe types.

1. flip flops - for use in the shower, by the pool, and at the beach.
2. sneakers - for exercise.  (Above: Converse Chuck Taylor)
3. flats - for everyday.  (Above: Alexander McQueen)
4. galoshes - for dryness and mobility on rainy or snowy days.  (Above: Sperry Top-Sider)
5. black pumps with a closed toe and closed heel - for interviews, the office, and parties.  (Above: Nine West)
6. peep toe stilettos - for parties, a less conservative office, and church.  (Above: Christian Louboutin)
7. wedges - for events taking place on grass.  (Above: Giuseppe Zanotti)
8. strappy stiletto sandals - for ultimate sex appeal.  (Above: Jimmy Choo)

Note:  The shoes shown above epitomize their respective shoe types.  You can easily find less expensive versions at your local malls.

Lady Gaga rocking in Alexander McQueen

Check out her new Bad Romance music video.  Lady Gaga moves with amazing grace in those intricate lobster claw shoes.

Her whole outfit is from Alexander McQueen's spring 2010 collection.  I would love to borrow this ensemble from Lady Gaga, especially because she is only an inch or two taller than me.
