shoes

Sadly It doesnt look like I'll get to see this.
I hadn't realised it was so soon, and I cant see me getting the time to go.
Ah well.... maybe another time.

A Perfect Line

I'm not sure if I've mentioned it before, but for me there is a perfect line between the sole and heel of a shoe.
I've never measured it, but I can see at a glance if a shoe has it, and it makes the difference between something that you wear on your feet to keep them dry and safe and something that makes you feel sexy, thinner and drop dead gorgeous.

Many designers produce the odd one or two that fit my criteria, but Terry De Havilland is king of the perfect line in my eyes.

If you want to know what I'm talking about, go and look here
or try and drag your eyes away from the model and get a load of whats on her feet in this you tube offering.


If i won a couple of grand on the lottery, i wouldn't be getting a face lift, or employing a personal trainer to get me in shape, I'd be buying a couple of pairs of custom made Margeaux.
Makes me sigh just thinking about it.

Update 26th August.
I hope I'll get a chance to go and see  Shoes on stage at Sadlers Wells  later this year.
Not only is it about shoes, but it features thigh boots by Terry De Havilland.
*swoon*

Photography

I dont know about you, but I love looking at photographs.
I can spend hours browsing random selections on Flickr , so iI guess its no big shock to know that I regularly get sucked in to the photos in jpg magazine
I've shied away from a real subscription, given that i am such a hoarder [ both online and off ] but i feel bad about not supporting excellent publications like this with some of my hard earned cash.
So I'm doing the next best thing.
I'm telling you about it so you can go spend some of yours.
:D

Are You F*cking Kidding Me? (Facebook Song) LIVE

Ok, So i didnt find this myself - it was posted by Ben Folds on Facebook - but It made me grin, so I'm reposting it here.

Well, here we are again, 18+months on and very little has changed.
I'm skipping over the fact that during this time I hit 50.
Hit it, crashed through it with my fingers in my ears and my eyes shut tight , ignoring all cards and well wishers, and trying hard to forget this [hopefully] insignificant fact.
At some later date , when I have taken the concept to my bosom, and forced it into the shape that I want it to be, i may expound on this event, but for now thats as many lines as i'm going to give it.


So to push on.....
Wallpaper.com
I love this magazine.


One day I'll even buy the paper version so i can thumb its pages till they are dog eared and soft.
*thinks*
I assume it DOES have a paper version?
*goes and looks*
Yes, it says it has a print version.
I dont look at is as often as I should, but whenever i do , I find at least 2 or 3 amazing pieces that send me off in directions new , or images that have me shaking my head in wonder at the range of talent that there is in the world.




Todays random flick through its pages have not left me wanting.
Or rather they have....


Wanting to open one of these....
Designer Ice Lolly Shop


Wanting to own some of these....
Swing Sunglasses

And wanting to go to this....
Enchanted Palace
Now I'm off to see what other joys are lurking in its pages.
Hopefully i wont be away so long this time.
G'Night.
:D
