Chocolate Shoes!!!!

One of my favorite chocolate shops, Chocolate Necessities, has asked us to sell their chocolate shoes at our store. If you have never tasted their chocolate, it really is to die for!!! These shoes are so very cute! They measure about 7 inches tall. They really are just the cutest things ever. I have eaten a couple of them - oh my they are good! A customer even gave one to the shop as a thank you gift for providing her great customer service. They retail for $30. I great gift for any shoe lover on your list. Lots of different styles to choose from. Yummmy!!!!!!!

Chocolate, Bubbly & Shoes!

Fall Fashion Show 2009

We had a fantastic time last night at our Fashion Show! Thank you everyone who came! We tasted some amazing chocolates from Chocolate Necessity and the gals modeled fun fashions from Southside Trends. Sarah and Baby K have fun walking the catwalk!
Whitney always looks great! Here she is modeling the new Sofft patent pumps. Love the Chianti color!
Very yummy chocolate from Chocolate Necessities. Life doesn't get much better than chocolate and shoes!
The vintage looks are back again this Fall. Alyse looks fabulous in the little retro boot from Born.

Fall Shoe Trends

It is that time again - we have to put away our sandals and pull out our boots. So, are you wondering what will be in for Fall 2009??? You are going to love it! This season is all about being a girl! Lots of very feminine styles - gone are the unisex and manly looks. Vintage is still in - take a look at these Sofft & Born boots - very retro.

The colors this season are jewel tones - lots of eggplant, crimson, and emerald. Very rich! Grey is huge too! Suede is still hot! Lots of grommets - metal details. Patent leather is very big! The best part is that it isn't just black - chocolate brown patent - purple patent - oh so nice!

There were so many great shoes & boots to choose from this year. We had to be conservative with our buys because of the economy so if you don't see exactly what you are looking for - make sure you ask because more than likely we can special order it for you!

Closet Limitations for my Shoes

So yesterday, I was asked to be in a commercial promoting Fairhaven. We filmed it today. I was filmed coming off the train at the Fairhaven station and then going into the Chrysalis Hotel. I asked what I was supposed to wear and was told this - wear a skirt - no black, no red, no white, no tiny patterns, no bright colors and no plaid. So I spent an hour and a half in my closet debating what to wear.

As I went through every stitch of clothing that I owned, I realized that just about everything in my closet fit the list of "what not to wear". All my skirts are black or black with tiny patterns. Most of my tops are white or black. It made me realize that I need to revamp my closet!!! Of course, I was feeling "fat" too, so that made it even worse.

I ended up in a skirt that I haven't worn in a million years, for good reason. Good news, I did have on fabulous shoes! I went with my old stand by - the chocolate brown Cordani sandals, the Patty. I believe I have a picture of them way down below in the blog. I have decided that my closet overhaul needs to center around my shoes. There were so many shoes in my closet that I wanted to wear today but I had nothing to match them. It is so sad that such beautiful shoes just sit on a shelf. Maybe I should rent them out, so they get to go play every now and then!

I do wish someone would come into my closet, look through all my shoes and then tell me exactly what outfit would go with each pair of shoes. I truly love shoes, but I don't always do them justice. I would just love to look fashionably sassy every time I went out the door! Either that or please, next time you see me, just look at my feet : )
