Metallic Blue Leather Pumps

这个星期忙坏了累坏了。天天穿得人模狗样的，不是在工作，就是在跟人吃饭喝酒喝咖啡。说话说得都抑郁了，现在别提说话了，连打字都觉得累。抽空还是拍了张。

金属色的鞋子这两年很流行，我改天写个长点的慢慢唠叨。这双电蓝色的Max Kibardin是2009年买的，现在怕是不好找这颜色了呢，不得不佩服自己当年超前的眼光，哈哈~~~

裙子是DVF的，也有两三年历史了，当初路过UWS那家Barney's分店的时候在橱窗里看到，顿时不能自拔，赶紧推门进去就买了。虽然我算DVF的大粉，也有不少她家的裙子，这么一见钟情的情况还是不多见的。她家的衣服简直是妇女之友，挂在架子上一般般，穿在身上效果尤其好，说通俗点，就是屁股是屁股，腰是腰，胸是胸，没有半点含糊的。

西装是Gucci家的，用料裁剪做工没有啥好多说的，flawless。。。贵是贵了点儿，但是很值。钱多了发烧的时候，不能老是烧包包，烧件经典的衣服也还是不错的。据我个人的观察，男人真不在意女人的包包，但是会注意女人的衣服和鞋子。

Beautiful blue pumps are hard to find. So when you see a hot pair, snag ‘em! I got these Max Kibardin pointy pumps in Saks Fifth Avenue five years ago. And right now, they are super in!  Featuring metallic blue leather and a unique diagonal ankle strap, it fits in the metallic shoes trend, and stands out with its fabulous color and details. At 3 inches, the heel is the perfect height — high enough but not so high that it’s uncomfortable. I literally run in these pumps to catch buses / trains.

On a side note, Saks has stopped carrying Max Kibardin and many emerging avant garde designers since a couple of years ago, which, IMO, explains why it gradually lost ground to other luxury department stores. To position itself as a luxury flagship, it needs to carry some hard-to-find brands and items with the wow effect. I haven't been to Saks in the past year as fewer and fewer items could catch my eyes in recent years. Now that it is under the new management heading by Marigay McKee who was poached from Harrods (my one and only favorite store in London), I am waiting to see its revamp and return to more risk-taking designers, such as Max Kibardin.

The fuchsia dress is from DVF, bought from Barney's a couple of years ago. Every woman loves DVF dresses. They tend to hug your body in the right way. This dress, in particular, stroke me with its vibrant color and body hugging fit when I was walking by Barney's window with my BFF. It was love at the first sight, and today our relationship still works like magic.

Blazers from Gucci are simply flawless. Top material, clean cut, and impeccable hand work. This one is no exception. We women tend to splurge on designer bags. But don't overlook your cloths and shoes. A wise investment goes a long way. This blazer costs less than many designer handbags... How much is the Chanel 2.55 reissue now?  Would someone please kindly remind me... :)
