Cute dress Galligator. I'm jealous that you can sew and I can't.

Southern-Belle, love the Mulberry and metallic shoes

Thanks Southernbelle, I taught myself years ago. I have just enough stubborn if I am interested in learning something. Of course, that means I have a walk in closet that is equally stuffed with Shoes and unused fabric ... Sewers are the worst kind of pack-rats for buying & hoarding the 'perfect fabric' that will get used 'someday'.

GRR. I hate it when IE freezes up.

Here I go again.

Prada Maryjanes, Floral skirt & Ralph Lauren jacket that I got for a steal on Black Friday a few years back.

I need an excuse for dinner out (And a sitter) so that I can get a chance to wear this.

Oh - anyone else love how we get a peek at just how different our individual styles are in threads like this?

^^Those Pradas are so darn cute!

galligator · Nov 17th, 2008, 06:38 PM

They're some of the only (designer with a capital 'D') shoes that I've been willing to pay at or near-retail for. I wasn't about to miss the chance when they appeared on BlueFly this summer - they are beautiful.

Galli... I do love how we can see eachother's taste and styles just by our pics!! Plus it opens our minds to some new ideas, perhaps??
