Uggs for Jimmy Choo

Ahhhh, the winter boot that so many people have come to criticize for so long until realizing its a wardrobe staple for those snowy days. To me, Uggs are a love/hate thing. I was lucky enough to purchase my very first pair (Rockstar Uggs) at $50 on clearance from Lord & Taylor years ago. Yes, you read right- I spent 50 bucks, I got lucky considering they were worth $260 at the time. I like Uggs, very much actually because it has made my life and happier feet much easier to enjoy the cold and snowy weather of NY, but not to the point where Id spend over $100 for every new color or design that came out. Speaking of which, this particular Ugg boot caught my eye on the web. Even though they have teamed up with Jimmy Choo for a seasonal boot, would you shell out nearly $600 for something that looks like this? Oh and fyi, there is only 1 way to wear Uggs and it is the very last picture below!

The reason why we've come to HATE Uggs

The reason why we LOVE them.

The Red Sole

Sighhh, Christian Louboutin has stolen the hearts of women (and men) around the world with his signature red soles underneath an already to-die-for shoe. Now has anyone seen his fall 2010 collection? If not, check out this stunner... Warning!!! DO NOT WEAR THIS AROUND YOUR JEALOUS GIRLFRIENDS ; )

Her name is Ambertina, shes adorned with bronze crystals and stands on a 6 inch heel, she also costs a mere $2395. I'm in love

Black Swan

Has anyone seen the trailer for Black Swan yet? I have to be honest and admit that I thought Natalie Portman was a great actress in Goya's Ghosts, Closer, V for Vendetta and then kind of mediocre in New York, I Love You. However, I don't think i can even wait till Dec 1st, when her new movie comes out because she pretty much won me over, just watching the trailer! Vincent Cassell (SWOON), and Mila Kunis is also in it, and looks beautiful as always but I'm curious to see her as a ballerina. Good thing I didn't bother watching the other psychological thriller Gothika because Ive got a gut feeling it wont even hold a candle to this film. I know this movie will also make a huge impact in the fashion world like Alice in Wonderland did as well, I can see all fashion students now using the concept of a swan onto paper or mannequin. With that said, its only natural that I felt inspired (collage wise) and put together a few pieces for you to get inspired by. Be daring and put some feathered pieces into your wardrobe!
