Shoe Talk Episode 3

 

This is a new segment featuring some shoes from my closet.  It is the third episode and you may have seen the shoes before or they could possibly be a new 'never before seen' pair of shoes.  You can see the pilot episode of Shoe Talk in which I feature Alaia, Gucci, and Charlotte Olympia here.  The second episode featured Giuseppe Zanotti, Miu Miu, and Fendi and you can find it here. 

I am calling this segment "Shoe Talk" and in it you will find sizing tips, guidelines, and my own personal ramblings.  You will get a glimpse into my shoe closet without actually seeing it.  Three pairs of shoes are featured in each episode and they are taken out of the box on the video to get the full experience of shopping without actually spending any money. In this video I feature Jil Sander, Jimmy Choo, and Burberry.  Think of this as more of a behind the scenes video to answer some of your questions and the many questions I get about my closet.  You can subscribe to my YouTube channel to see all my videos.

Jil Sander Platform Sandals

I only own two pairs of Jil Sander shoes, the asymmetrical sandals and these python sandals.  These platforms feature stretchy leather straps and rank among my most comfortable pair of shoes.

A.L.C. Twisty T Dress

A.L.C. Twisty T Dress in Stripe - Gift from Boyfriend

3.1 Phillip Lim Fur-Trimmed Denim Jacket in Mid-Blue - Gift from Friend

Jil Sander Asymmetric Leather Sandals in Black - Snagged off theOutnet.com for $292.25 (Retail: $835) and worn before here with MINKPINK dress

This dress is perfect in so many ways due to the color, the fit, and the construction.  A.L.C. really makes some beautiful things  and everything is made in the U.S.A.  I paired it with this denim shearling jacket by 3.1 Phillip Lim.  The jacket is even warmer than it looks and I think it looks really cute with the dress.  My Jil Sander asymmetric sandals came out for one last romp before the temps fell.  These are one of my favorite pairs of heels because they remind me so much of flip flops.

I saw this Alexander Wang twisted vest on many websites and I always wanted it.  It is sheer and knit so what's not to love?  On the models it always seemed droopy and unflattering, but I had a feeling about it.  Luckily, it popped up on a Gilt sale for a reasonable price and I snagged it in my usual size.  I love the back detailing and it is very soft.  I paired it with my Siwy denim shorts in white that I snagged off Hautelook for a bottom barrel price.  They were having some blowout sale on Siwy denim and I had been looking for a pair of white denim shorts.  I wanted a black belt to wear with this outfit and the only one I could find at the time was this Chloe buckle one.  It is meant to be a waist belt, not a hip belt, but I decided to start a trend and wear it on my hips unfastened.  I thought it looked cool, but my boyfriend gave me a strange look.  When someone doesn't like something I am doing I tend to do it more.  What can I say?  I like to tick people off.  The whole outfit was topped off by cool sunglasses from Anarchy Eyewear.

Angel Eyewear Katt Sunglasses in Black - Courtesy of Angel Eyewear

My boyfriend and I took one look at these photos and started singing "Secret Agent Man" by Johnny Rivers.  This outfit also reminds me of something Jennifer Aniston might wear.  The style is minimal and classic, but at the same time chic.  I think having different kinds of sunglasses from Angel Eyewear helps complete my looks.  I am surprised at how well they picked out frames that were perfect for my face shape.  The Eskell silk shorts and Elizabeth and James minimalist blazer were quite the steal off Gilt Group.  These Jil Sander platform sandals are perfect for the summer.  I just wish I had gotten to them sooner, but they got lost in my closet.  My boyfriend says that he would be seriously injured if all my shoe boxes fell on him.  We are in the process of figuring out a better way to organize my shoe collection.  Let me know if you have any ideas!
