Well I love this thread, but I'm wondering if anyone started the Spring/Summer 2008 Wardrobe thread already? I only discovered this topic halfway through fall so I'd love it if I can get a headstart on Spring/Summer!

yeah- there is a thread in this section about that...you just have to look around to find it...

i would like some cool boots

I just wore some boots like that down to the city last week...well, maybe a bit more of a rough and tough version but close enough.

I must find these

style.com

Laika these are very cool!!!!!!!!!1

 

[softgrey]

laika---where can i find them???
any ideas?

lucky- IF had those...
no?...aren't those the one you kept trying to get me to buy???...

^ So cute, laika It's almost enough to make me want to 'get tough'

yup, those are them ... but IF only had white in a 23 and the black in a 26. I became obsessed with them (see, I find things for others but my tastes are a little off kilter me thinks )

I found them, at galleria neponte in a 24 black. the CdG store was super helpful giving me a list of stores that got them. I really love them...I know...so weird B)

monidoll4u wow those booties are amazing!

 

[softgrey]

well lucky-
the thing is you didn't really find them and show them to me because you thought I would like them but because YOU really like them...
and i agree that they are totally adorable in person...
but they are so NOT me....
i don't really do any sort of chunky shoes for the most part...
i like slim streamlined shoes usually...

but i think that also has something to do with my urban environment and your country dwelling...

you got me.

monidoll4u, those chloe oxfords were at the chloe store in nyc. they're very tall but super easy to get around in because they are fairly level. great choice.

softie, I tried to track them down at the beggining of the season, but I am pretty sure that the version with the straps wasn't produced. There is plain lace-up version though. They are uber expensive--around $995.00.

lucky, I saw those comme shoes on sale at Barney's and I'm pretty sure they had our size...you might want to give a call.

laika, thanks but...typical barney's ...I did call them, early on in my search, because I saw them there too. they said they had none left. but I found them elsewhere anyway, so I'm all set.

I emailed the buying office for veronique branquinho this morning for you guys, just in case they were produced. the buyer indicated that Iris had them and also manufactured them so they might be able to locate a pair if you contact them directly.

 

[laika]

Iris has the plain version in the store, but not the strappy ones....maybe you could try asking them anyway softie?

I am counting on them showing up on yoox...all VB's shoes seem to.

 

[softgrey]

thanks laika-
i also have a feeling that those boots weren't produced......

 

[wheneveriwakeup]

I am serious need of trousers - cuffed, slightly baggy, with straps, pockets, etc. A bit Yohji, Limi, TSE s/s 08 looking.

I'd also love a pair of these Docs...
