Shoe Slave: G Series

www.gothamcityonline.com

Evidently January is shoe month. Shoe-Mojo in high gear.

I like these boots for summer. Light in color, relatively low heel. Maybe a practical boot for Stampede? They might even be comfortable since they're G-series by Cole Haan. I'm hoping. Actually, what I'm really hoping is that they fit around my calves. Fingers are crossed.

But I really didn't buy these for practical reasons. I saw a photograph of a tall and gorgeous model wearing similar boots, faded jeans and a guys white shirt. Hot.

That also might explain the leather jeans hanging in my closet. When am I gonna learn?

More Jeans Please

I hate how much a decent pair of jeans costs these days. I used to be able to find some gems at Winners but lately it's been pretty slim-pickings.

While in San Fran last week I discovered Joe jeans are a whopping $100 LESS in the US than in Canada. With the dollar practically at par this is a STEAL. Even with shipping charges you still save money.

Best place online for Joe jeans is Anthropologie. They have great selection, an easy website and really fast shipping. They do tack on an extra $30 for Canadian shipping so buy a couple pairs (or get together and order with a friend) to spread out the cost.

I picked up some high waisted jeans last week. Loved them in the store, not sure now. I think they DEMAND high heels. It's nice not to worry about your crack showing though.

Shoe Slave: Going Gidget

I know, I know, I just posted a "Shoe Slave" item. But I'm going South for a week which has me thinking spring. Which leads me to these shoes....

Kate Spade's "Gidget"s are the summer version of the Batwoman shoe. These are cuter. That little wooden platform also makes me taller which I love.

So much for "giving up high heels". I simply CANNOT do it. Don't these SCREAM white capri pants and a gin and tonic? Seriously.
