This Miu Miu shoe is delicious… …and it reminds me of this Bottega Veneta bag, which is also delicious. Pink and red make me think of something else that’s delicious. Excuse me while I go get a snack! While I’m eating, you can read this. Also, here’s a guy who has a sensible response to…

Obsessions. Some Old, Some New.
1. Actor Sam Waterston‘s eyebrows. I think the long-time Law & Order cast member deserves three Emmys: one for him and one for each eyebrow. I always feel like the brows are acting out little plots of their own. No other eyebrows are so special. Admittedly, some people would vote for Martin Scorsese‘s. While I’m…
The Ones That Got Away
It seems fish feet are everywhere, yet I cannot procure the fish feet of my dreams. The Manolo discovered these fish flip-flops (fish-flops?) via Unknown Highway. Maybe they’d be better as high-heel fish-flops My search for the Christian Louboutin fish shoes continues. Behind Big Glasses is trying to divert me with elephant feet. Nice try,…
Consolation Prize
My obsession: the beauteous Christian Louboutin Pesce shoes. During my never-ending quest for fish feet, I found a young-adult book about a boy who wants to be a ballet dancer. I also found a female science blogger (you go, girl!). But alas, no fish shoes in my size. My gorgeous sister, Terri Berry, came up…
Giving You the Boot
I’m trying to avoid going into stores so that I’m not tempted to spend. Things are so much more enticing in person than they are online. I went into Barneys recently and I thought I was going to start licking the purses on the first floor. They looked so delicious. But I have new jewelry…
The Footwear Creeps in on Little Mouse Feet
Fasshonburu pointed out these mouse shoes by the late Marc Jacobs (he’s not really dead, just late, so please stop crying). I asked myself, “Self, would mouse feet make you happy?” But upon serious reflection, I realized that only fish feet will do. Alas. “Jaws Platform Pumps” aren’t going to appease me either. Fish or…
Amusing Gift Ideas From Noted Co.
Noted Co. wholesales fun little things to museums, gift shops and snazzy toy stores. I was very taken by the Japanese papercraft kits. All of the pieces have moving parts, which I love, but the darkly humorous names are even better. The fish and carving knife piece pictured is called “Doomed.” Click here to find…
Fish Feet. I Want Them.
Christian Louboutin still hasn’t sent me these delightful shoes despite my helpful hints on this blog. Now Shoewawa tortures me with this post. Bad Shoewawa! How could anyone fail to see how perfect my life would be if only I had fish feet? My previous fishy posts: August 23 August 29
Purple and Silver
The purple-and-silver combo from The Sartorialist that I saw on Cherry Magazine made me think of this Ossie Clark dress (below). I wore it to the Factory Girl premiere in January (I loved that movie and don’t care what anyone else thinks). The photo is unusually craptastic, but I am sharing it anyway because this…
No Good Fish Goes Anywhere Without a Porpoise
Fasshonaburu brought this fishy Tory Burch skirt to my attention. And here we have a fish watch. Great Gear News posted about this fishy design. But alas, I am still unable to procure my life’s true desire: fish feet. As God is my witness, I shall not rest till I have little carp teeth encircling…
