Kate Spade Does Prints: Kate Spade Spring 2012



I have to admit, that I have never really associated Kate Spade with prints. Solids in bright colors, an occasional polka dot or stripe here and there, sure -- but not prints. I have to admit that the combination of black and white with the solid pops of color looks gorgeous. The above pics were taken behind the scenes of Kate Spade's spring ad campaign, and I am intrigued...I can't wait to see more of what is to come...

Looking Forward to Spring: Wonderful Wedges

Wonderful Wedges

Wonderful Wedges by nycandparis featuring wedge sandal shoes

If you are in a place like where I live, there is still snow on the ground, but that doesn't mean I can't start thinking about spring...or summer even. I feel like spring is just around the corner, even if I am still wearing knee-high boots, scarves, and puffy coats.  Watching all of the clothing lines roll out their new spring collections has been contributing to my eagerness to get into the spirit of spring, get in the spirit of spring. I've started zeroing in on my favorite trends, and one of them is definitely wedge sandals in a nude or brown color. There are so many out there in every price point, it is impossible not to find some that you fancy.  Going with more of a nude color definitely works to lengthen your legs as much as possible, especially if you pair them with a shorter skirt, cropped trouser or shorts. But they also look just as good peeking out from underneath longer pants for work, and they still keep their magic leg-lengthening effect.  So what are you waiting for? Go forth and find your own pair of wonderful wedges!

Seriously? The $900 Camel Toe.

Okay, I seriously don't get it.  I just don't get it.  What could possibly be so flattering, such that a woman would be induced to pay $875 plus tax for a pair of booties that clearly define her big toe?  It is like the booties scream, "wear me, and I'll make your feet look like a camel's hooves!" While the split is more noticeable in the camel color, which is my personal preference, you can also find these lovely foot distorting shoes in black (pictured below).  And if anyone figures out the mystery behind these shoes, namely, why the heck they were ever manufactured, please feel free to enlighten me and the general population.  If you really feel compelled to track these down, you can find Maison Martin Margiela Perforated Booties here.
