Flats Flats Flats

Helloooooooooo Fashionistas, so as you know from my previous entry I don't do FLATS  - but recently I got a request to do a pull for some peep toe flats (not my forte). As I started conducting my search, what I thought would be dull at first ended up being fun. And I actually ended up buying a pair ( I will let you know how it goes when they arrive in the mail)

Below I have added some pics from the pull I did - let me know how I did in my search - Enjoy and remain in a fashion state of mind

Unsung Heroes of the Boutiques

Happy Tuesday Fashionistas:


Apart from shopping at the mall - a great place to get some unique pieces are those trendy cute boutiques they might have in your area - I have about 3-4 boutiques I frequent at least once a week in my area - but have you ever wondered where these boutiques whether it be online or a physical store front get their merchandize from ?


There are a variety of manufacturers that design beautiful clothes (although some might be imitation ) the sad thing is that we probably have never heard of these manufacturers and probably never will. They’re the BCBG's, the Kensies and the French Connections of the boutiques.


Below I have listed some of my favorite manufacturers along with some pictures of their designs. Also I have listed  where online you can find some of their pieces - or you may ask your local boutiques if they carry their items..


My favorite manufactures are BB.Dakota, Ark & Co, C.Luce and Tulle


Enjoy a few pictures of some of my favorite manufacturers' designs below – Till next time my dears remain in a fashion state of mind :)







This dress is lovely - but this model is not wearing the heck out if it




















My Fave dress in my closet right now

Everyone needs a good tunic - even if you just use it as a cover up for a bathing suit










Love love love this dress

Sorry about the quality - what do you think of this dress? To busy?

Sorry about the quality of this pic also- but you get the drift

Stilettosssssssss

Stilettos, Stilettos, Stilettos - that is the only heel I wear - Wonder how many people are with me on this? I don't wear wedges - definitely do not wear kitten heels and flats are only for the gym and flip-flops.

Now, not all slim high heels deserve to be called Stilettos - Only the extremely slender heel with a solid stem made of steel or alloy deserves to be called the true Stilettos.

These magical shoes (at least in my mind) give the optical illusion of a longer, slimmer leg and a small foot and of course height. They also alter the wearers posture and the way the wearer strides and walks - because the calves are flexed it makes the bust and butt more prominent - So fashionitas strut your stuff in some stilettos this weekend - till then dears remain in a fashion state of mind.

Enjoy some pictures of some of my favorite stilettos and some daring ones.









Remeber these? Balenciaga lego shoes - $4000

Fendi's past season Tribal sandal - I really like this shoe




Valentino O Valentino




Would you dare and wear these ? I would. Can you guess who their by?
LOL- can you guess what the platform is made of?













I could go on and on with pictures of shoes - Who are some of your favorite shoe designers and what stiletto shoes are you itching to buy in the future?
