Silver Space

Silver Space Ballerina Mary Janes, originally uploaded by Theresa Di Moan.

In my last round of documented window-shoe-shopping at The Bay, I stubled upon this comfy pair of silver ballerina flats.
I can't for the life of me remember the brand, but somehow, despite the admitted ugliness of the cushioned-diamondy look, I really liked these.
Especially how cute they looked with my cropped woolen pants and the diamondy patterned nylons (I keep forgetting the proper name for this pattern, shame on me!). They weren't expensive either, and if it wasn't for me promising myself that the only shoes I'm getting this month are REAL dancing shoes (no, ballerina flats don't count as dancing shoes!) - I would have found myselt at the till in a blink of an eye. These would be my first silver shoes ever. Not to mentioned the ugly cushioned diamonds.

Point Blank

It has been ages since I last posted. At least it seems that way. But it also has been a while since I actually saw a shoe that I felt like trying on. Perhaps I am too busy, or perhaps my energy was spent more on new obsessions: dancing, more dancing, and in between pilates to keep my posture at top shape...
True, I have hardly spent any time trying shoes on recently, for quite some time. In fact, if I didn't look at my blog I would have no idea what I last blogged about!
I tried some shoes that I liked but I managed to keep my wallet out of trouble, which is quite remarkable for a shoe addict such as myself. I've even managed to stay away from stuffing my sock drawer further.
But I am sure this fad will pass and I will be back to my usual self again. And to prove it, I'm bringing to you a pic of the latest pair of shoes that I've managed to get myself interested into even though I don't *need* another pair of shoes. Aside from dancing shoes, of course, which I need desperately (but no one seems to bother carrying my size - 7.5).
I think what keeps my mind on these shoes is their white colour (even though Browns website calls them beige! What are they thinking?!)
I haven't tried them on yet, so I don't really know if I'm going to get them or not...

Perfect for dancing, Fluevog Lately flats with a sophisticated T-Strap provide comfort without compromising style. Worn here with a pair of Hue's lingerie for feet and a strapless hot pink dress with original print by Cherry Blossom. Here is a closer look at the phenomenon:

Le Marquis de Sarto

Franco Sarto Patent Peep Toe 02, originally uploaded by Theresa Di Moan.

Spotted these colourful patent leather peep toe flats a couple of days ago at The Bay. They were separated into two pairs on two different shelves, and I just had to get them back together as a colourful family... In all honesty, I haven't tried them on. The reason: Franco Sarto makes painful shoes. All the pairs I ever ownde from this design really hurt. Even if the design is usually sleek and sassy. And they weren't even high heels!

Trying them on will be too tempting and than I'll end up with tortured soles... I've learned my lesson, and taking photos is as close now get to the Marquis de Sarto.

Irregular design by Irregular Choice: the suede wrapped bow detail continues on to the outer side of the foot, and is held in place by a snap-button. These are cute, but seemed somewhat
clumsy on my feet. Not sure why. I just don't think I could pull off the right statements with these ones.

Shoes: Diesel ballerina flat sneakers of satin and suede
Socks: None

I love these in the summer - I often wear them like sandals, with no socks, or with sheer , shimmering nylons. The satin makes them look fancy, and the design is a bit futuristic. If it was possible to just hang out on a spaceship, these would be my slippers... Today I wore them with my orange corduroy recyled pants skirt. I also love wearing these with beige or cream clothes, to add a little of colour accent but still maintain the summery beige look (which helps me tremendously in maintaining my aloofness against the heat).
