Wedges are all the rage lately. These babies are one of the reasons why. Check out the Baobab python wedge sandals ($1,995 via www.net-a-porter.com). I'm a sucker for reptile. Love 'em!
I said it once & I'll say it again, there's nothing better than a good wedge. Check out the Trybal suede wedge sandals by Yves Saint Laurent ($1,050 via www.net-a-porter.com). I love everything about this shoe! The heel cut-out detail is soooo beyond! Love 'em!
Looking for a classic shoe w/ an abstract edge? Look no further. Check out the Palais mohawk suede pumps by YSL ($935 via www.net-a-porter.com). I'm kinda obsessed w/ this shoe. The goat hair fringed mohawk is so unexpected. Mr. Saint Laurent would be pleased. Love 'em!
Stefano Pilati & the house of Yves Saint Laurent have done it again. Check out the Horton lace-up ankle boots ($895 via www.saks.com). These are insanely-sick to say the least. Bottom-line, they're on the list. Love 'em 3x!!!
Next on my handbag wish-list is this hauteness from YSL. Check out this sweet grey leather-embossed tote ($756 via www.bluefly.com). Isn't she lovely? And w/ a promo code, she soon will be mine. Love it!
The house of Yves Saint Laurent has released a short film to accompany their 2010 Manifesto. Model Natalia Vodianova acts a muse. Check it out. It's pretty effing hot!
Looking for perfection in a shoe? Look no further. Check out the Tribtoo eelskin slingbacks by Yves Saint Laurent ($895 available exclusively via www.saks.com). The orchid color is insane! Also, the eelskin adds a touch of luxe. These little ladies are super-sexy & certified chic. Love 'em!
Can you say "killa"? Check out the deadly-fresh Yves Saint Laurent Over-The-Knee boots ($1,745 via www.saks.com). I love the stretch suede, buckle-detail & edgy heel. Pair 'em w/ a leather mini or noir leggings & prepare to fashionably kill the crowd. Love 'em!
Yves Saint Laurent will debut the fifth edition of their Manifesto on Sept. 12th (during New York Fashion Week). In addition to NYC, the tote (along w/ the written Manifesto) will be given out to lucky stylistas in Paris, Milan, Tokyo, London, Hong Kong & Seoul. The tote, designed by creative designer Stefano Pilati, features Christy Turlington looking fierce! Perks like this make me want to migrate to Manhatthan. Love it!
As you know, bluefly.com is an amazing website. I've been visiting BF more, since the demise of my beloved eluxury.com :-( After spotting these shades (being rocked by Sheree from the Real Housewives of Atlanta), I had to have them. I found them on sale @ bluefly.com. They retailed for $225, but w/ BF's 40%-50% off sunglasses sale & some saavy coupon code searching I copped them for $122.95 (including shipping). Of course, I'm compelled to share the codes w/ NoirLace readers. First time purchasers receive $20 off a purchase over $100 w/ code CWINNER20 or $30 off a purchase over $150 w/ code CWINNER30. Enjoy!
The house of Yves Saint Laurent rarely disappoints in the handbag department. Check out the new metallic logo tote ($1,295 via www.ysl.com). I'm loving the metallic leather & embossed logo. Also available in gold & bronze, this bag is super-fresh for the fall. Love it!
Looking for a true showstopper? Check out the Yves Saint Laurent leopard-print ankle boots ($1,250 via www.net-a-porter.com). Rock 'em with a leggings or an LBD (little black dress) & prepare for the spotlight. Love 'em!
Stefano Pilati resurrected Christy Turlington for YSL's fall '09 ad campaign. I appreciate the 80's homage but I must say; this ad is a bit lackluster. Off with the art director's head!
Fall/winter is looking up. Check out these suede sandals by Yves Saint Laurent ($930 via www.saks.com). The design is sooo intricate and the suede is lush. I heart a good nude shoe, almost as much as I heart YSL. Love 'em!
Fashion Show host, Kelly Rowland, was spotted leaving Mr. Chow's in L.A. today. As you can see she's rockin' the YSL Tribute platform sandals (former NoirLace "Shoe of the Week"). Ms. Rowland may not be a fashion authority (apparently I missed that memo) but, she has great taste in shoes (or blogs, LOL!). Work!
This is super-random but, I had to share. Isn't she lovely? Indeed! Check out the Yves Saint Laurent grey ombre' leather 'Easy' medium bag ($1,516 via www.bluefly.com). I love the grey/purple/fuschia color and the butter-soft Italian leather. This b*tch is fierce!
Last night former Danity Kane member, Dawn Richard, was spotted @ the Gotham magazine party in NYC. She looked super-fresh rockin' the ultra-chic Yves Saint Laurent cage booties. I love the way she mixed soft & hard w/ the addition of the silk top. She's getting Bad Boy money! Work it!
I, definitely, don't consider Ciara a fashionista but she kinda killed it w/ the Yves Saint Laurent Cage booties. Props to her mediorce stylist! Now, if she'd only stop rockin' that ghetto, two-toned weave... Sigh!
Say what you want about this new couple, but they looked fierce @ the Yves Saint Laurent show, last night. I believe noir is, definitely, the sexiest color. And these two got my memo. Mr. West ditched the wack 'do to don a tux. Amber Rose looks sick in the backless catsuit (notice the stirrups). And of course only a former exotic dancer, could pull off a look like that. You betta work!
