So you want to get Snippy?

It looks like scissoring will be prominent for Spring. Many designers from Zac Posen to Blumaire have all gone Edward Scissorhands for some of their Spring looks. It’s all in the “cut-out” details. From cocktail dresses to casual looks, flirtation abounds with the designs showing just the right peak here or there. I like the looks because they are still chic and stylish without being too revealing. Check them out for yourselves:

For the love of all things FABULOUS!

Seeing as the pressure is now on for me to bring you the latest and greatest from the top designers and some you may not have heard of, my goal is to critique what the designers put out there and to get your feedback as well.

With that being said, let’s get started shall we? In my struggles to keep this from completely turning into a blog dedicated solely to my obsession with shoes. Ok, that’s not exactly true seeing as how I have more shoes here than anything else, well…you’ll learn to forgive me. I thought I’d start out by displaying some of my favorite accessories for Spring ‘08. It’s all about texture! From the studded stiletto heels to python boots with jewel details, to jeweled handbags, oversized bangles, and graffiti on five inch pumps, fabulosity is still very in! I am also starting to really fall in love with the brightly colored patterns I am seeing on summer sandals as well as handbags! Like these pair of printed lace-up sandals from my favorite, shoe couturier extraordinaire, Manolo Blahnik and the print bag by Missoni
