Went into the city today and decided it was an appropriate time to debut my new Basque colour block bag. I am really into this bright blue colour. I initally wanted the Givenchy Antigona bag in blue, but i was about $2,000 short. I am absolute in love with this tote style though and want to get a red one soon – just waiting for pay day.
To my surprise I can actually walk for longer than 10 minutes in stiletto heels; it’s been a while since I wore a pair.
Also I thought I might be a bit more adventurous with my photos and took them in a nicer setting. Thank you to my sister for taking them. We had to pretend we were doing a shoot for her media project so it was socially acceptable.

I love the cropped top and single-sole heels! I’m so happy designers are trying to gravitate away from platform shoes.
me too! I’m going through a phase with these shoes and i have my eye on three different pairs. there goes my new paycheck…
I want Blahnik’s “BB” heel soooo bad, but with the ankle-strap. Enjoy your new shoes, what colors will they be in? Single-sole shoes really are timeless, but for walking all-day, that is the only time I prefer platformed heels.
i love that shoe! I don’t know why but I’m drawn to the grey pair…
my (hopefully soon to be) new shoes are a red sandal with gold studs, plain black and nude. It will cost me over $500, lucky for me I have a birthday soon. I was surprised about how confortable this pair was, probably because they’re not very high. I made the mistake of single sole heels on a saturday night…it was disastrous
I wanted it in suede and red/black! http://pinterest.com/pin/105130972523373198/ but they don’t have that style online anymore
What color shade of grey was it?? I’ve actually been trying to find grey since you could have a lot of fun with colored opaque tights.
I always hint to my boyfriend about things from Tiffany’s when it’s those occasions
But anyways the red sounds gorgeous, so take pictures!
Haha that is always the best part: when you have birthdays
Live and learn right?? I did the same thing one time when I went clubbing and wore a pair of my BCBG single soles. Luckily if you have enough vodka, it can subdue the pair
its the suede grey one, this would be perfect for coloured tights! http://www.barneys.com/Manolo-Blahnik-Suede-BB/501424623,default,pd.html
I’ve been trying to find an affordable pair but no one sells them in suede
i believe that, vodka has soothed a lot of my physical and emotional pain haha
Yes! That is the perfect shade, I hope you can get them! Hmm did you check Nordstrom? I saw they had some on sale for the anklestrap ones, but they only had larger sizes.
Haha vodka definitely has that power….I’m surprised it’s not considered one of the wonders of the world
yeah they didn’t have my size
I’m thinking of just hitting some outlets they have in Melbourne. I went to the Tony Bianco one the other day and got two pairs of shoes for $80 and both were real leather. I don’t know why I go regular retail shopping after that exerperience
They have Manolo Blahnik outlets?!?! I need to do some googling lol.
Ahh yes prices like that make us question why we would want anything else….but then we remember haha. But usually I get pretty luck hitting up places like Nordstrom Rack. I bought $400 Cole Haan boots for $60, and $450 Max Studio boots for $30 there. It just requires patience hahaha.
You look fantastic! Good looking bag, the outfit is awesome and those shoes are the best!!! Good job,
Thanks so much! I have an emotional attachment to these shoes
lovely look. quite inspiring!
thanks
