Spring Fashion News, makes my feet flutter!

January 29, 2010 Michelle fashion, Shoes

I can’t wait for spring, and I am dying for wedges! We know this, so when Style.com reported on them, I just had to share:

the BRIGHT side

tila march’s colorful suede wedges

“One of the brightest trends we spotted at the recent pre-fall shows was blue suede shoes. And red suede shoes, and green suede…well, you get the picture. We thought we’d have to wait until summer to slip our feet into a pair, but leave it to French editor turned designer Tamara Taichman to be one step ahead. Come the warmer weather, her yellow cork-soled wedges will pair nicely with the vibrant color-blocked ensembles designers have been showing, but until then, they’ll look great with gray tights. Does this mean optimism is officially back in style?

Tila March Escarpin wedge, $495, available at Bergdorf Goodman, NYC, (212) 753-7300, and www.tilamarch.com“

Dead Winter Days= Dreaming of Spring Feet!

January 13, 2010 Michelle fashion, Shoes

We are now in the dark days of winter, where the fun and anticipation of holidays is over, and now we anxiously wait for spring. I love my boots and tights; I really and truly do. My collection is perfect and I wear either, or both almost everyday. But deep down inside, my feet are already itching for spring and summer shoes!

Pretty painted toe nails, sumptuous sandals, cute flip-flops, killer wedges! *sigh* I’m especially looking forward to wedges. I happen to be getting married and honeymooning this spring. My mind is wandering with all the pretty wedges I want to wear to wander around some tropical locale!

I’m slowly thinking of a check list to the kind I need:

White cork
Black Wood
Brown/bronzy
A fun colorful pair

Shoes and packing are a painful topic for me, since I usually want to take all of them and should probably only take 3 at most. I like wedges the best. Since I’m pretty short, the height is always the biggest plus, and the solid base doesn’t make my feet hurt. Here a few pair I’m lusting after for spring/summer:

As seasons change, I change others things too! Do you?

October 8, 2009 Michelle beauty, Hair

As seasons change, more than just the weather switches, we all wear to warmer clothes in darker tones and colors, makeup palettes change from dewy skin to a more matte finish, less bronzer more blush, and richer jewel toned eye shadows and nail color.

Well, same goes for my hair. I don’t really plan it but somehow, my hair changes with the seasons. As winter fades to spring/summer, my hair usually gets lighter with highlights, and as summer fades to fall/winter, my hair usually gets darker with the help of my preferred hair dye.

So a few days ago I made my transition to fall/winter with 6WNLight Chocolate Brown/Nonstop Chocolate by Clairol’s Perfect 10. I’ll admit it was darker than I expected, but I’m loving the color and getting more used it. Here’s my transformation:
