Grumpy.

Saturday, February 23, 2008


You would think that clicking on Piperlime and seeing this totally fun rainbow of super-saturated shoes would instantly make anyone happy, but not me. Because – grumble, grumble – the pair I want (yes, you, pretty turquoise button-y one) is almost completely sold out and has been for weeks, thus mocking me every time I click on by. If you're a size 8.5, you're in luck – that's the only one they have in stock. (And there's plenty in black too. Unfortunately, I'm only interested in very, very bright shoes these days, and my attempts to satisfy such desires have not been going well.)

In the meantime, I'm also totally stalking the purple satiny sandals from H&M I spotted on Who What Wear Daily's spring transition tips blogcast {gratuitous shoe closeup at 1:40, and also below}. They remind me a lot of Agathe's perfect eggplant pair that I'm still completely lusting after. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to be able to rock the super-high heel, but I'm still watching for them to arrive in stores, with the deep hope that I have somehow developed an incredible new high heel tolerance over the winter. Fingers are crossed. Stay tuned…

I love these shoes from H&M and one of the girls in the office had them on and we refused to believe that it was H&M. These are super cute! In addition, I just came on your blog and noticed you were a fellow Coutorture member! I write See Pretty Things & The Kitten Lounge and am in NYC so let me know whenever you're in the city.

I'm a huge turquoise fan(jewellery, bags,shoes, ipods)but even if these (fabulous) shoes were still available I wouldn't be able to afford them.

I was sucked in by that beautiful rainbow as well. My favorite were the yellow peep toe flats by Mia and they are all sold out too. I waited to buy them a tad too long. Now they aren't on line anywere. Lesson learned-if you love them, buy them right away.

I love those heels from H&M

You might be surprised at how easily you can wear heels like these: they're thick, so they offer support. And that platform sole will help out a lot.
