I Want! Yves Saint Laurent Obsession Heels
May 7th
Was busy Pinning today when I came across Yves St. Laurent‘s “Obsession” color-blocked slingback heels & absolutely fell in love. Style them with a cocktail dress, pantsuit or a plain pair of jeans, the versatility of this platform definitely won’t disappoint. These suede, leather & red satin gems are a perfect match & finished off with a fun black twisty ankle strap. I die.
Why it is that I consistently fall for over-the-top, ankle-spraining & impossibly expensive high end shoes is beyond me. Fashion is such a bi@tch, but it does make for some great eye candy

I Want! Zanotti’s Metallic Summer Splash
Apr 10th
A shopping gem of a shoe for Spring 2012! It’s metallic turquoise blue, it’s incredibly high (6.10 inches to be exact) & has me daydreaming of long walks by the seashore in San Tropez. Although realistically, I should be thinking more along the lines of of sporting these at some busy street intersection in Toronto, Canada. But I digress…
Did I mention that this pair of Giuseppe Zanotti shoes also happens to be incredibly sexy? The platform heel is so slick and anything but clunky with it’s feminine shape & sleek homage to the summery espadrille sandal. The thin ankle strap & peep-toe are just icing on this wedge cake!
Love, love, love the shoe. Not so much the price. $695 at Luisaviaroma.com.

I Want! Fluevog’s Fruity Flats
Mar 25th
I don’t often include a pair of flats in my mental list of must-have shoes, but I just love the design of these strappy heel-less wonders from Canada‘s own John Fluevog. This slick & architectural “Wizard” design is based on a Fluevog style from the 80s, modernized by beautiful glossy sorbet-hued leathers. Yum!
And for 215 bucks, they’re not gonna break the bank. Too much!
