These Shoes in My Size Please

In light of my newly refreshed love for all that is Sex and the City, I felt it disloyal to feature any other shoe than Manolo Blahnik in this weeks shoe post.

Whilst it's common knowledge that Manolo was the king of heels long before SATC came along, there's no denying that the two often go hand in hand together.

These sling back, bow Manolo's are classic and so very sweet. I love how dainty and feminine they look. These shoes are most definitely made for strutting the streets of NYC - well, in my eyes anyway.

Sex and the City

Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of watching the new Sex and the City movie; something I had been looking forward to all week.

Now I know that many reviewers have panned it and I feel it needs to be said that a majority of these reviewers were male. I mean, really? Why would you send a male to go and review a movie like SATC.

I had no expectations going in except that the fashion would be out of this world. The creators have never disguised the movie as something that will stir up great thought. It is quite simply a movie for the millions of fans still pining to see what's happening to Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte. 

Quite simply it's pure indulgence and a whole lot of escapism at it's best. For who doesn't want to live in a  world where on holiday and faced with an impromptu dinner with an old love, you remember that you've got that breathtaking Emilio Pucci gown in your suitcase that you packed 'just in case'. 

I watch a movie to forget what's going on in my life, to open my eyes to a world that may or may not ever be a reality for me. So when a movie like SATC makes me smile for two and a half hours, then that to me, is a success.

On a side note, desperately loving these sling back Louboutins - Who doesn't love a little sparkle in their lives.

One of Many Reasons To Live in New York City

If you grew up in Melbourne, chances are you've lined up at one point or another to view the Myer windows at Christmas time. Whilst pretty magical when you're young, they tend to loose their shine with maturity.

So where does one go when the Myer windows no longer cut it?

Well- if you're female, fashion obsessed (or not) and just a little bit in love with Sex and the City, you head to the Bergdorf Goodman windows on 58th Street, New York City! 

Styled by Patricia Field and filled to the brim with all the designer labels, shoes and accessories you could dream of, it's the department stores tribute to this weeks release of Sex and the City 2.

Oh how I wish I was in NYC this week....allow SATC fever to take me over....

Because if you can't strut the streets, wearing an outfit so absurdly high fashion at a time like this, when can you?
