Kloset nirvana...

It would appear that Mrs. Lamar Odom, aka Khloe Kardashian is flying high these days and is on top of the world (translation: she's making a whloe lotta dolla bills.) With her multiple product endorsements, his/her fragrance, clothing stores, umpteenth reality shows and superstar b-ball player hubs, she seems to have it all and more.
 And a whole helluva lot of shoes.

 Check out the reality queens shoe closet.

more red 'soles' than Communist China

Mrs. Odom, if you are ever looking for new bestie up in Canada do not hesitate to contact me. I just so happen to take a size 9 shoe and since I'm only a bit taller than you I'm betting we're almost the same shoe size.
I'm not against shoe swapping.
In fact I encourage it. It's not like you've stuck your perfectly pedicured feet in these shoes more than once or twice.  You can wear my winter-worn Uggs and I'll rock some of these

Loubies. Sounds good right? OKdonedeal.

H and M finds...

Hello lovelies! Today I ran into H&M to pick up a few things I`ve had my eye on. Once the snow stops around these parts I might actually be able to wear them. As you all know Mother Nature is a Biznatch that`s not in my good books lately.  I`m hating on her, but with good reason. We`re suppose to get another 10-15cm  (6 inches) of snow tomorrow night coming up from Montana. That`s super awesome Montana but this is Canada and we can produce enough snow for ourselves- we don`t need it coming up from you.

Now I`m hating on Montana snow storms too. 

Anyshittyweather, here`s a couple of looks I put together with my latest finds. Leopard print always makes me smile so maybe I`ll just wear it everyday from now until spring truly arrives.

 I love that this blouse is longer in the back and shorter in the front allowing you to leave the back untucked. (Didn`t we do that circa `95?)

And I honestly don`t know if these harem style pants are working for me or not but they`re the most comfortable cotton and I love the flat, high waist and gathered ankle.

Leopard Chiffon Top- H&M, Harem style Pants-H&M (has Mama lost her mind?), Nude Heels- Nine West, Pencil skirt- Ricki`s

Observations:  -The walls in this spare-bedroom are seriously not this red, they just photo that way. 

                         -Only Husband knows why there is a bottle of Sriracha hot sauce on top of the dresser

-Mama needs to hit the gym ASAP, I cannot hide in black forever.

Jimmy Choo Who?

Move ovah Jimmy Choo and Christian Louboutin...I've found two new (newer to me anyway) shoe designers to love. 

Brian Atwood and Charlotte Olympia are taking over and I'm loving their sky-high stacked-heel style. 

Will I ever buy or wear these heels? Of course not. That's crazy talk. 

Who but Victoria Beckham, Cheryl Cole or Olivia Palermo could get away with these?

One must be short, weigh next to nothing and have lost all nerve endings in their lower extremities (thus negating the pain) years ago. 

But they're just so deliciously gorgeous...

Brian Atwood Nude Suede Pump $597 Saks, Grey Chain Leather Pumps $1050 US, Net-A-Porter

 

Charlotte Olympia Dolly Black Suede Platform pump, Purple Satin Paloma Platform Pump, Net-A-Porter $840

These Paloma pumps have an easy 6 inch heel with a 1.5 inch platform.

 Say what?

Obviously these shoes aren't for everyone. That I've ever met. In this lifetime.

Winter blah blah's....

Unfortunately Mama has been suffering from my annual bout with "The Winter Blah Blah's", also know as "I hate you January" and "winter can suck it."  I certainly don't have Seasonal Affective Disorder but the combo of super cold weather, minimal sunny days and months before spring arrives makes me want to act like a grizzly bear and hibernate. No jokes. I'd like to fast forward through this bunk time of the year and jump directly into spring.  I've upped my vitamin D intake, increased my workouts at the gym and tried to stay active. But all I really want to do is not much of anything. I went to the mall for the first time in weeks (which is total craziness) because normally it's my home away from home. 

 I really haven't had much desire to shop lately. Shock and horror.

{Though on Friday I did manage to grab these cute nude Nine West pumps. Someday when I can pry the snow covered UGGS off of my feet I'll be able to wear them. Someday...}

 I go to bed at a decent hour and I'm still tired when I wake up which is super annoying. Where has my energy gone? It's obviously time to start drinking double Red-bulls in the morning because coffee is no longer cutting it.

This time last year we were packing our bags for Hawaii but sadly it's not in the cards this winter. Boo.

 I seriously think that winter vay-cays to sunny destinations should be MANDATORY for people living this far north. Mandatory and Government subsidized.  Sounds like a brilliant idea to me.

January, I'm sooo over you. 

Shopping is necessary AND important

Mama's been shopping today in preparation for our trip to the fashion Motherland - Europe. 

As always, I've managed to pick up a pile of new pieces without spending mucho dinero...
July means end of spring/early summer sales...you'd be crazy not to shop. Like, a lot.

Forever XXI is perhaps my new fave store? Honestly I figured the name pretty much spelled out who exactly has any biznaz shopping there. But they have plenty of great stuff for those who are not, ahem, 21.
I picked up these tops, which I think would look great with a thick waisted black belt.

None of these tops were over $35.00. I love their accessories and they're practically giving them away.  $6.99 for a necklace you say?  Can I get a price check? 

From Suzy Shier I grabbed this black belted halter dress with a bronzed coin bib front for $35.99. Cute for going out for a casual dinner, no? 

I picked up this Lori M Collection dress for $39.99 at The Bay and these Bandalino heels from the Nine West outlet for $36.00 (reg. $80.00). I also snagged a studded belt (similar to this one) from Laura for $12.99.

Pull out your calculators kids, not a lot of moolah was spent today.  This brings me some serious joy, thrills, elation satisfaction.  Do you get excited by finding the dealz too?

Hello Lover....

Is it wrong to love a thing as much as I'm loving these shoes right now? They actually bring me joy!

{Why am I holding them instead of wearing them? Mama needs a pedi something fierce...these feet aren't worthy.}

While I really do lurve these Nine West Hamish peep toe strappy pumps (who names these?), my search for the perfect nude pump continues. And though I know where to get them and who makes them, until Mr. Louboutin tones down his prices I'll keep looking....

{Note the toe shape. Perfection. Someday maybe...someday.}

Pretty things...

 Here are a few pics I took of things that caught my eye in Vegas. How could they not...everything is over the top fab!

Floral arrangement in the Lobby of Wynn. Lurve them!!!

The lounge - "Down Parasol"  So colourful!

The lobby at the Wynn

Gardens outside

A gorgeous window display for Manolo B. This pic doesn't do justice for the glittery stunner on the top right!

(and yes that's a black patent pair of MaryJanes on the left!)

And of course my all time fave thing in Vegas, err... person - Husband!

I think I'm in Lurve....

Time for some serious discussion.

Count-down to shopping ~nirvana~ in Vegas.  T minus 3 days!

Just a few de-lights I'd like to share.... these beauties are on my radar.   *drool*

All from Aldo (I'm kinda in love with the colour grey right now)  Delicious!

Christian Loub's in Nude Patent-

(Kim Kardashian says they make your legs look longer and if it works for her...) 

 

BUT since Loubies aren't in my near future, I'll settle for these suede Fawson pumps from Aldo for $100

Still on the hunt for these...always sold out in my size at Aldo. Make more ALDO, come on!

One final note on this crucial shoe discussion. WHY the HELL are heels so high right now???  Yeah yeah, I know it's the look and if you can't handle it then too bad for you. But seriously, who can walk in these for more than 5 minutes without falling down, growing bunions, and snapping your achilles? 

My BFF's and I have a thoery, that unless you weigh 104 lbs and are no taller than a hobbit, you're outta luck.

 

 

 Am I right or am I right?  All super skinny-ass bitches who probably originated from Middle-Earth. 'nough said. Maybe super high heels and me are not meant to be....

NOTE: see how much taller Eva looks in her gorgeous Loubie nude pumps!?!?  Screw it, I'm not giving them up!

Christmas CRUSH!

It's time kids...  gonna share my Christmas crushes.  ( what I want from the Man in Red. But since he doesn't really exist...most of these things won't either). *sigh*    Let's begin...
