High Heels & Sweatpants

High Heels & Sweatpants, originally uploaded by Theresa Di Moan.

As usual, I'm late to the game when it comes to casual fashions that repeat themselves on every 2nd girl on Robson street... For the longest time I've been very strict about wearing my gym clothes only at the gym...

Introducing... my favourite new style: High-Heels & Sweatpants...!
combining the comfort of ass-hugging stretchy sweatpants with a quirky top (see the jacket below from Flying Tomato) and sexy heels, and of course... a hand bag to match is in order (though you can't see it in the pic, you can be sure I won't miss that kinda detail).

A little note about the leather the shoes here are made of - the 3rd pair of shoes I have from this strange marriage of suede and patent leather... The shine of patent leather, the buttery-soft, feet-hugging suede, with a visual and tactile texture that is reminiscent of snakeskin.... hmmmmmm.... Someone should invent a name for that, because I wanna wear a lot more stuff made out of it!

Pinky's Escape

Yellow Strappy Sandal, originally uploaded by Theresa Di Moan.

Yellow strapy sandals, can't remember the brand and will have to go back and check into that. They were pretty, yes. They were even sorta comfy or at least more wearable than many other stilettos I've tried recently. However, the pinky-toe seemed to be escaping from the strap in a way that looked appealing while feeling like loosing a toe any minute. Quite a peculiar feeling, I tell ya!

What say you about the escaping pinky tow? Boo-hiss or sassy bliss?

Above: this is how they make the foot arch curve in a suggestive way, as if saying "look at me!"

Painfully High Heel Leopard Sandals by Franco Sarto

These sandals caught my eye with their simple design and the funky leopard print. The heel must be more than 3 inches tall, cause I simply could walk in them at all. I tried to bring the first pair I tried (Kenzis wedge fabric sandals) to the shelf about 3 meters away and it was a via dolorosa for my ankles with that terrible arch! So little space between the toe and the heels to carry the weight of the body simply calls for some defying-gravity pills or something...
