Tango in Paris

Houstina over at Cowgirl Heaven send over the loveliest ruffled vest. A nice way to shift, with ease, from summer into fall. It's as soft as it is stylish. Ever since I saw Shall We Dance (first the Japanese version, and then the US one) I fell in love with both the story; romantic and comical, and the music. Right now you're listening to the song Jennifer Lopez and Richard Gere dance to in the American version. This post is also the debut of my Carrie Bradshaw heels. Can you believe that I bought these many moons ago and haven't, until recently, remembered to wear them? No, they aren't Dior, but yes, they are just as lovely to wear and look at. Oh and I was very excited today when I found out that I am on StyleSite here is the screen cap.

You're listening to: Gotan Project - Santa Maria

Balmain, my love!

Test driving my new suede booties. I have a feeling these babies are going to come in handy, come the cooler weather. I slip in and out of them like butter. They could not have been designed any better. I love their fit, look and comfort. Almost cuter than the real ones (I like the heel on these much more, than on the originals.) Thank you, Bakers, for replicating the Balmain delight and satisfying our palate!
