Guess who's S|S 2010 collection just hit the web?  Yeah, Aldo's.  I'm already drooling over these patent nude wedges and guess what?  Sold out in my size already.  Gah.




If I was a foot shorter, I would rock-the-shiz outta these.  
Wow.  Does that heel not look 10 inches?! 

Update:  The heel is 140mm

I found the most amazing boots from Aldo that I have begged husband to buy me (for Christmas).  These are not them.  These are my second place pair.  The ones I reeeeeally want are a tad more expensive (and up until about two seconds ago when I checked, they were sold out in my size - but are now back in stock, I'm having a small heart attack right now!).  I've dropped every hint in the book to husband about them, and by hint, I mean blatantly telling him how badly I want them, every other second and showing him numerous pictures.  I don't think I'm going to get them, I just have a feeling.  In other  shoe news, I totally impulse purchased these on Monday.  Such a great price now and I need a new commute boot (aka what I like to call the boot I wear to and from work while I carry my four inch heels in a pretty little bag... or simply in my hands).  Bonus, they are over the knee which is fantastic since I live in skirts even when it's 30 below and the knee-high commute boots I've been rockin' the past two years just are cutting it, as far as keeping the space between my skirt and top of my boots, warm.



Saw this skirt about a month ago and immediately sent it to my sister as a Christmas gift hint.  I don't think she's getting it for me. Regardless, I love it.  I'm a sucker for pencil skirts and this one provides such a unique look.

I am instantly obsessed with both pairs of these Jeffrey Campbell wedges (okay, a little bit more with the ones above).  I know these are categorized as 'clogs', and I'm not a huge fan of clogs (for me), but these don't seem clog-ish to me.  I'm drooling!

Some of you may remember these wedges from my covet post a few months ago.  Well guess what?  They are officially mine!  I'm on the Aldo mailing list and received a special promo code for one day only, for items on clearance only.  I quickly skimmed the Aldo site to find my beloved wedges 50% off, plus with the promo code I got an additional 25% off!  Eep!  They were delivered the next day (now how's that for good service?  And I chose the standard shipping...) and I've barely removed them from my feet all weekend.  A match made in heaven!

My heart skips a beat for these nude booties.... Jeffrey Campbell, you did it again.

My mom and I hit up Aldo today to look for a clutch for her for the wedding.  While there I found these, the 'Gersten' wedge.  I died.  I grabbed them so quick and held on tight, look at my mom and gave the look of, 'Omigod-these-are-amazing-and-I-need-them-NOW'.  She then gave me the look, no, actually she said, 'Yeah, to go with your other 170 pairs of shoes...' while rolling her eyes.  Sadly, I left empty handed.

Boo hoo.

I came across this fantastic shop online called, Spotted Moth.  They sell women's clothing and have everything from skirts to accessories to tops and dresses (and more!).  The price points are pretty good and I could not stop drooling over this scalloped skirt:


I am absolutely enamoured with these Christian Louboutin 'Very PrivĂ©' slingbacks, in patent nude.  I dream about these shoes and want them so badly.  I was thinking of splurging and buying them for my wedding, but, as the costs of everything are rising, the dream of wearing these on my big day is getting further and further away.  It doesn't help that they are uber hard to find to purchase (black is everywhere, but the nude is quite rare)... or maybe that does help.

What are you coveting right now?

It's been a fantastic weekend and I was lucky to have today off as well, making it yes, a four-day-weekend (amazing!).  It's been a great weekend filled with BBQ's, two Easter dinners, wonderful weather, and lots of chocolate.  Inspired by a couple things, thought I'd put together a list of current things I'm lusting, loving, looking for, listening to, etc.

Lusting for...
{ Spring's Ferdico sandals, $50}

Saw these on my girlfriend HC / future brother-in-law's girlfriend at Easter and fell in love.  Deep.  They come in black as well and just looked so good on her feet.


Listening to...



Loving...

... some of my recently thrifted items:

{ black patent clutch }

{ silk scarves }     


{ navy blazer }      


Watching...


My fiancĂ© and I have become verrry hooked on this show about a middle-aged chemistry teacher who turns to a life of drugs and crime without his family having any idea.  Anymore would give too much away, but needless to say, it's worth the watch.


Workin' it out with...

{ Zumba }

I've been doing Zumba for a year now and still can't get enough.  It's a high-intensity cardio work out that includes salsa, meringue, hip-hop, and more latin-inspired dance.  If you know of a gym or rec centre that offers this class, I high recommend it.  It's a great way to sweat it out while having a great time.

While doing some online shopping with the fiancĂ©, I came across these amazing Jeffrey Campbell wedge cut-out boots on Karmaloop.  Fortunately, they don't have my size anymore ... otherwise, I'm not sure I could contain myself ... nor my credit card.


How amazing are these Michael Kors watches?  So nice.  I know my gf JM is craving one.  Is this what you had in mind, J? 



Did I just die and go to heaven?! I found these Toureson booties from Aldo
just now and I'm in looove.  A hidden wedge in an ankle boot - does it get any
better than this?  It also reminds me of these sick boots that Fashion is Poison
blogged about.  They still have my size and they are on sale for half price! 
Too good to be true?!
I'm loving Maison Martin Margiela's new leather peep-toe booties in grey.  At $1045 they are sorching, and you can buy them here.








                                         
                                                                                                 









Ooh la la.  I first laid eyes on these Fawson shoes from Aldo months ago, and now they've come out with a similar peep-toe version called the, Eggenburg

Love them both.


I'm loving, loving, loving the new collection from Joshua Perets.  I've got my eye on this cute new 'hoodie' ... perhaps something to request for my upcoming birthday ...
I came across these oh-so-delicious wedge boots today.  If there's one thing I'm a sucker for, it's wedges.  Throw a boot in the mix so I can ultimately winterize an often summer style, and you're golden. 

I cannot stop thinking about these 'Flounder' (cute name) booties, available in nude and black. Unfortunately, they don't ship to my neck of the woods!
