Christian Louboutin just launched his 20th Anniversary Collection Edition that is full of red stilettos, boots,pumps and more. I’m really liking so many of them. For that special Valentine’s Day date these would be perfect to wear if your budget allows! I’m still saving my pennies but one day soon, I will be prancing around in a pair. I just want the  classic black leather pump because so many of the other styles are so trendy. See any favs you like? Happy Hump Day! xoxo

Charlotte Olympia made a great looking pump called, Morwenna. They are fab and full of color! I would wear them with a nice fitted black dress and colorful jewels or a fun hat. I can think of many ways to wear these puppies, I just want them lol. By me having huge legs, I usually shy away from ankle strapped shoes but these right here are calling my name lol. I love Charlotte’s designs,I have to go a stalk the site now lol. Happy 4th to you! xoxo

Yes you read the title correctly! As I nurse my aching ankle back to health, I am still laughing and thinking back on what happened yesterday evening at the monthly Hello Stiletto event. This is going to be a funny story so sit back and relax! Hello Stiletto is a monthly shoe party where women gather and pull out their favorite shoes and meet up at a fun place and strut down the pink carpet showing off their heels.

Hello Stiletto Event held at Fox's

Fab Shoes

I go monthly because I absolutely love shoes and  its fun to see all the fashionable heels at the party. This time it was held at a women’s apparel store called, Fox’s. As I walked in I saw women checking out all their competition and snapping photos and making comments on all the shoes in the room. I arrived in a poofy tutu,bustier and flip flops. My sparkly secret weapons were tucked way down in my purse for noone to see ha! I didn’t want to reveal my latest shoes, I wanted it to be a complete surprise.

Bakers had sponsored my sparkly brand new Carinas for a previous affair that I didn’t make but they were perfect to wear for this event! They were fresh out of the box and I had never walked around in them. The hosts and creators of Hello Stiletto, Amanda and Melissa announced that the shoe off would be starting soon as the ladies hurried to grab their numbers and file in line. I was number 10 and thats when I went behind a rack of clothing and put on my sparkly show stoppers. As I began to walk, I didn’t realize they were so high(8 inches to be exact) but I THOUGHT, I’m a diva, I got this…sigh!

As I made my way through the crowd and found my place in line, a lot of the ladies starting whispering and pointing saying,”oh my look at those” . I was very happy that everyone loved my shoes! It was another lady there who also had on a plain pair of heels but quickly changed into a fierce pair of tan Christian Louboutin stilettos with spikes! Oh my, the competition was getting fierce! Women were coming out the woodwork with fabulous shoes, sweet jesus!

Hot shoe!

Love the heel!

The judges were ready with their clipboards and the competition began. The ladies strutted and modeled the best they could down the pink carpet and showed off their fancy shoes. There were patent leather, rhinestoned,designer heels, flowers and stripes all unique in a special way. Then it was my turn. I got to the middle of the carpet and all I knew was that I felt a wobble and I was going down! I felt my ankle lean to the side and I quickly did a squat move and sat on the floor lol. The crowd gasped as they asked was I ok as everyone quickly came over to help me up. It wasn’t a Carrie Bradshaw from Sex & The City kinda fall when she strutted down the runway and fell chin first on the runway, no! It was more of a Oh my, I’m falling let me pop a squat kinda fall lol. “Oh Lawd, help me Jesus” is what I was thinking, lol!  Needless to say, it was embarrassing but as my fellow shoenistas told me, I fell gracefully and in style ha!

Out of about 15 or so ladies strutting down the runway, the judges called 6 of us back to the carpet, then it was narrowed down to 3. I was apart of the lucky three and took home 1st runner up! Spikey girl with the Christian Louboutin killer stilettos took home the grand prize which was a Fox’s gift card,shoe necklace and bragging rights! I won a $25 dollar gift card, shoe necklace and an aching ankle!

Shoes galore!

Diva down, Diva down lol

Winning Shoes...Woot!

The judges said I had a great personality and I got up and kept on going, thats what they loved about me. I would like to thank Hello Stiletto, Fox’s and to all the ladies in attendance for a great time! It was soo fun and I’m doing a lot better today! Stay tuned for Hello Stiletto’s Annual Shoe Ball for a great cause. I will be one of the judges for the charity event.

For all my shoe lovers out there, you will be too tickled pink about this post! Manolo Blahnik, the “shoe gods” for us chicas, launched their shoe line at Saks Fifth Avenue in Buckhead yesterday.  I was too ecstatic to go check out the exclusive line made just for this fabulous department store.

When I pranced into Saks, they had champagne pouring, light bites, music, cookies designed in the shape of stilettos, sketch artists and, of course, Manolo Blahnik shoes displayed all over the store. I was in complete shoe heaven!  There were so many heels to look at, and models were there dressed to the nines, wearing different styles of shoes for us to see. They also had a fashion presentation.

How fun, I got the pink cookie,ha! Cookie Creations of Atlanta

Pretty models

The always-debonaire George Malkemus, president of Manolo Blahnik, was also in attendance to mingle with fans of the shoe line and discuss the latest collection. He picked out a great pair of funky shoes for me and said I would look nice in them. I modeled the shoes George suggested in my sketch, drawn by concept artist Joe Miranda. I had a great time learning about Manolo Blahnik and talking with a lot of the guests there. I was eyeing a hot pink suede pair and have added them to my wish list.I would like to thank Saks for allowing me to attend this great event. Please stop by the store to check out the shoe line, sold exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue.

I picked them up a few weeks ago to wear with a dress I got awhile back. Betsey Johnson makes very adorable footwear and I love bows and rhinestones so ofcourse I’m loving these!
