Lanvin — Hiver ‘10. This is decidedly one look that I’m not quite able to fathom.

I think I shall affectionately refer to this as: ‘The Lurch Shoe’ —-something you would get if you crossed Dana Carvey’s ‘Church Lady’ orthopedic footwear with a version of the structured bootie that Ted Cassidy wore as his butler character for the Addams’ Family, LURCH.

They’re Creepy and Kooky alright.

I see the shoes with Alexander McQueen’s vanilla silk Column Dress.
(If he wasn’t ALREADY DEAD, that would Kill Him.)
Actually, I see them on sale at the end of November, so spend those pennies on something else.

Eddie Curtis of Bergdorf Goodman (aka, my Shoe GURU….) just sent me a pic of Alaia’s newest little black suede bootie (with a pretty big price….)

…as well as two of his pix in that thigh high category that we at YYC groove to—both by Louboutin!
Many, many thanks, Eddie.

Ladies, aim your plastic and fire. These won’t last long unless you are a 41.5 or a 35.5. (212-872-8940)

Personally, I prefer the tie up bootie at a mere $1955. (Plus that extra $290 for necessities of life….like Chocolates, etc.) Either option, remember—ship out of NY and NO TAX! (surely you Uptown girls have someone you know in Jersey).

Gucci’s caramel frappe suede $2250….

(yeah, for this price point we Do need to feel like we’re driving through Starbucks …Just think….1200 Venti Lattes later and you’ve got BOOTS—kinda makes it all seem worthwhile….) and, I can only imagine how the nap on these babies will fare after a ‘day in the life’ of me. (The lattes May indeed be a better investment after all.)

Of course, for a modified and slightly less trendy version, the motorcycle jacket bag is also available in ‘basic’ black.
