TipiToe ... Wow!




If you can't bear to see other girls/boys in the same shoes as you, IRREGULAR CHOICE shoes will be right up your alley. There's something almost Irregular-Choice-esque about these shoes, isn't there? The slightly "wacky" pattern, the big embellishment on the front, and color combinations make no two pairs alike. If funky shoes are your thing, you'll love the brand and most likely find the shoes to be irresistible.

There is no way on earth that I could ever wear red leather boots with white abstract print on them...but I still adore these plunging V-shaped juggler. And sadly I wasn't blessed with a complexion that can pull off strawberry, but if you were then please buy these, wear them with a black mini dress, black tights and big hair and allow me to live vicariously through you.

In the men’s department my favorites are the ones with embroided flowers on them. They sound like brave shoes to wear, so you will have to think hard about what you will wear with them to balance the outfit and still make it masculine to compensate for the flowers. Shoes like these can add a unique and unexpected look to jeans- and will definitely make a lasting impression. For more designs visit zappos.

NIMANY .. Maybe for You? Definitely for Me!


Nowadays anything Arabic may bring you some unwanted attention, but NIMANY's Ts only bring that mesmerised "Wow!" look your way. The edgy designs infuse eastern warmth and western culture; the curvy fonts grab your body and bring out the Sexy in you!

The designer, Mr. Behnoud, takes the beauty of his homeland (Iran) and brings it into our everyday life. He tattoos the authentic Persian art on the wearer's body and into the observer's mind. Lets just say: if you are wearing one of his Ts it's hard to go unnoticed!

Anytime I wear my NIMANYs, I get bombarded with questions about the designer and where you can get one. His designs can not be found in boutiques and department stores yet but he seems to be headed in that direction. You can get your hands on a NYMANY T-shirt by going to his site or attending one of the many shows he participates in (for more information see the NIMANY website).

Because his work is not considered mainstream yet (and I emphasise yet!) wearing it satisfies the trendsetter in all of us and I for one can proudly say NIMANY is for ME!

Mackage .. How I love thee!

Leave it to the Canadians to combat cold weather in style! This Quebec success story is not only a testament to "good taste shall prevail" but it also speaks to the exquisite taste of the line's ever growing loyal support.

The coats are amazing and the price is reasonable. I don't think there has been a single person that has not said to me "Wow .. nice coat!" every time I wear my latest Mackage. Aside from keeping you warm on the outside your Mackage gives you that tingly warm feeling on the inside every time you put it on. If you don't believe me take a trip to your closest Saks or Nordstrom to try one on for yourself.

You can also see their collection on their site and for those of you who can't make it to the store you can buy them at Saks or Revolve Clothing. I'll leave you with this one last piece of advice: If you like to keep warm in style Mackage is for you!
