As I type this I can hear torrential rain outside my window. It's been nasty. Wind, ice cold rain piercing my face and the sun setting before it even rises. Here are some things that made today a little bit brighter. My Azzedine Alaïa's and wannabe-Wang-sunnies arrived! It was a pretty funny sight seeing these two items next to one another--the very essence of high meets low, covetable and collectible pieces meets fast and disposable fashion. Check out the sunglasses though. Not too shabby!

P.S. OK babes, I admit. I've been lagging on emails, keeping in touch, answering questions on my Formspring and posting DIYs. This will be remedied as soon as some of the temporary craziness ends (exams, school and such)! In the meantime, feel free to say hi on Twitter.
love the shoes, they are perfect for spring!

loooove

ok so i know i already commented on chictopia but...these glasses are just so cool, they look even better on a face (that sounds weird but you know what i mean?)

Those shoes are gorgeous and the sunnies look great on you!

Love the shoes, always have been meaning to get a pair of nude heels.

omg those nude shoes are amaayyzzingggg sophia! where'd you get them??

@ Annabel Xulin
they're azzedine alaia's. they're secondhand off ebay and got them at a very fair price (surprised there wasn't a bidding war)

NEU is my school :) hehe

those shoes are lovely!

The patent leather of the Alaias is gorgeous, would love to see them on! They look incredibly high. And the sunglasses are badass.

I hear the torrential rain now too, erg.

I have a variation of those Alaias! More photos, they look gooorgeous!

@Elizabeth

i know what you mean. glasses without faces is rather pointless wouldn't you say?

:O My mouth is literally open at the sight of those beautiful heels! Oooh la la! Yay, you went with the cheaper alternative of the glasses. They suit you perfectly.

When I saw the sunglasses, I was like "No you didn't..." before I read that they weren't the "real deal". They look exactly like the real ones!

the sunglasses are amazing! I wonder how the shoes look like from the profile ;) Their color is gorgeous.

Wow, I'm so jealous on your shades. They are perfect! Your new shoes are very cute

Have a nice weekend!

Glad you approve of the nude Margielas, let's hope they see the light of day soon. Though as I'm writing this all I see from my office window is white so chances of that are pretty slim...

Your Alaias are amazing, I myself am stalking eBay/yoox for my first pair of Alaia wedges for summer. I hope I have half your luck with eBay!

Look at us with our nude-colored shoes, so on-trend for spring ;-)

they are gorgeous!!!!

No shame in a knock-off, especially when they look that good! Any why oh why do I never seem to find those deals on ebay?

What would i do for this shades?! Almost everything! They are freaking fantastic!!

i love those sunnies so much!! kinda want to get my hands on a pair lol :)

Awesome posting in Sam Boman | Display Internet Explorer Icon on desktop. I liked reading this article. If you want, check out my website.

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your thoughts? I mean, what you say is important and everything. But its got no punch, no pop! Maybe if you added a pic or two, a video? You could have such a more powerful blog if you let people SEE what youre talking about instead of just reading it.

Fantastic blog! I dont think Ive seen all the angles of this subject the way youve pointed them out. Youre a true star, a rock star man. Youve got so much to say and know so much about the subject that I think you should just teach a class about it...HaHa!

Informative, but not convincing. Something is missing but what I can not understand. But I will say frankly: bright and benevolent thoughts!..

I got this web page from my buddy who told me on the topic of this web site and at the moment this time I am browsing this site and reading very informative articles at this place.

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.

Nice one, there is actually some good facts on this blog some of my friends may find this worthwhile, will send a link, thanks. Great content
