Foot Candy: Heels That Make You Wanna Smack Ya Momma

I've been gone for a minute but now I'm back with the jumpoff!

Ahhh I am sick today but this has given me time to blog. Empty house + bed rest + laptop that resides on my bed = blogging match made in heaven. So call me late for posting these but I'm just letting you know that when I should have been paying attention to calculus, I was busy saving these to my laptop. When I saw these all of these babies, I wanted to drain my account and run to the nearest train going to 5 ave. *sigh* I think my shopping is bad now, when I start to make serious paper there is no stopping me. I guarantee that every store selling hot shoes & big bags will know me on first name basis. EN-TEE-WAYS! let me get started:

YSL with The Divine Peep Toe:

The first time I encountered YSL was when I was 4 and my mom had this vintage YSL purse. I loved that thing beyond words. I had no know clue what the hell YSL was but all I knew was that when I got old enough I wanted to carry that purse around. Fast forward to 2009 and that bag burned in a fire -_-. Way to blow my dreams right? Ugh now instead of fawning over the YSL in my own home, I gaze at it through a computer screen where I stumbled upon these beauties.

I like high heeled shoes as much as the next girl but when I buy a shoe the first thing I look at is the heel. I love a heel that makes me say wow. The needle heel is definitely one of those wowers and combined with a platform, it's enough to make me run around in circle. I like...I like a lot. These are also very versitile, they can go from day-business attire heels to night- hot dress party rocking heels. These bad boys run for $795 so uhh either look hot or buy textbooks lol [I'd choose the books =x] Well like Hov on to the next one!

Jeffrey Campbell with the Michelle Heel:

Karmaloop is not only an outlet for streetwear, it also offers something for the girly girls [those with edge of course]. These ruffled open-toed, leather pumps run for $120 bones on the loop and come in two colors: black and pewter. My favorite details on these shoes are the unicorn heel and the rubber sole. Not only can I sport a truly unique and original heel but I won't bust my ass while in them. Score! For $120 these aren't bad at all. Jeffrey Campbell has some other divine shoes over at karmaloop. I loveeee The Posh Shoe and The Marly Wedge. Both just as gorgeous as these pumps. In general Karmaloop has some great shoe lines that people need to check out such as 80%20, Zigi, and Naughty Monkey.







Insa Babeh!

The first pair of sneakers I saw by Insa go back to 2005. I loved those things but of course I couldn't have them because 1) they were custom made and 2) I was 13...my mother would have shot me if I asked her for expensive ass sneakers [that's why I always ran to daddy xP ] Anyway from countless pairs of gorgeous and envy worthy sneakers have come heels. Last year, if I am correct, was the first line of heels released by Insa and they did not disappoint. This time around they have held up their standard of sexy. I love these heels. If my cash flow was constant I'd cop ALL of these. I am a sucker for bright colors [my fam is caribbean damn it!] so these heels hit the spot in calculus. Yeah I got in trouble for passing around my laptop for all the chicks to see but hell! it was for a good cause!

The first two pictures are The Miami Heels. What I love about The Miamis are not only the signature Insa graffiti art but are of course the heels. The multi-colored heels can set any outfit off. It can go from bland to straight poppin' with those on. I just think these are extremely beautiful and I would love a pair. Shell out 200 euro for these Italian leather platformed beauties and they can be yours at insa-heels.com. The mint sole is named Sunrise, purple sole is the Sunset, and yellow sole is the Midnight shoe.

The second two pictures are of The Stand Alone Heels. The heel is what clicked with my heart. If you look closely you will see that the heel of the pump is a leg with a tiny high heeled pump. Genius and horrendously cute. Like The Miami shoe, The Stand Alone can spice up any outfit from jeans and a tee to a mini party dress. These are a tad more pocket friendly going for 175 euros on the website. The three shoes are named the Chrome Pink, Chrome Mint, and Black Magic.

I think this is enough for one post. On to the next one!

Sorry

I am so sorry for not updating and blogging all of the wonderful things I see, hear, and know. Tomorrow will be a new day. With senior year and my very preggy mommy, time surly has not been on my side. I will be back tomorrow, I promise.

In the dark under the covers,

HOV!

BEST CONCERT OF MY LIFE.
JAY-Z IS THE KING.
ALL RAPPERS NEED TO BOW DOWN.
WHO ELSE CAN SELL OUT THE GARDEN IN 15 MINUTES???
SURLY NOT YOUUUU!
I know everyone has watched the concert on fuse tonight so a recap is not necessary.
It's been a must for me to attend a Hov concert and I couldn't ask for another to be blessed to attend. The ordeal I went through for this ticket was truly worth it because in the end I was dumb close to Hovie-Hov. I am very content with life and I will attend another Jay-Z concert. He is so captivating on the stage. The way he moved the audience was something I have never seen by a musical artist. Thanks for showing the world how NYC and Brooklyn gets down. Nobody can touch us as a city. We are too strong and too powerful for anyone to come at us ever again. I'll be back with pics. They appear as if I was far away but I was really actually close because Jay gave me a high-five when he walked off the side of the stage lol. Sleep time!

COP BP3 NOW!


UGH STILL NO PICS BECAUSE I CANNOT FIND MY CAMERA CORD!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!

Well today was my first day of school and I am a SEN10R! It hasn't settled in yet that we are now the old heads of the school and that everyone either looks up to or fears us. I am fine with both quite frankly lol. We saw new faces and hugged and jumped all over the old faces. We didn't do very much except get our schedules, eat ice cream, sleep during quaker meeting. The seniors, however, got a nice little speech from our dean, head master, and college counselor. It was a nice speech especially after the torture we went through last year at the hands of these people but let's not dwell on that subject. I'm chilling here with my buddy Asha K. Bee and we took some pics of our first day of school outfits with these lovely mac. Peep this hot shizzzzz:

I REFUSE PT.3

Like really a part 3? Sure it isn't laced with multiple examples of fxckery but this one alone sums it up. I seriously cannot with todays youth. I whole heartedly believe that all of your parents should sue the school systems for allowing this carry on. Who the hell started this bull and why do teens/kids think its cute? Well anyway I spotted this horrendousness when I was watching the video for 'Break Up' by Mario at work. It pissed me off and I just shut the whole video off and refused to go back to youtube. Why like really why?

I really have no words. For the first time I think I have been silenced. Never again. I refuse thee and thy bullshit! However, even though this IM is on a totally different topic, Krystyna's words describe my exact sentiments towards this bull.

kj (11:23:02 PM): The only problem that I have is that u have no proper grasp of the concepts of grammar, punctuation, and common sense!
kj (11:23:19 PM): Like d.a get a life and end it by jumpin off a bridge

I bid you all a good night.

Dear Chris Brown...You Owe Me An Hour Of Life

So I sat down like the rest of the world to watch the exclusive Larry King interview with Mr. Christopher Maurice Brown. *blink* *side eye* *blink* What in the blue hell was that? Chris didn't share anything we didn't know, he said sorry for the millionth time, and he dodged the most important question of the night! I don't care about you being sorry, I still remained a fan and you apologized to Rihanna & she clearly accepted it. I just wanted to know what happened in that car that night. We heard Rihanna's side through the police report and now we want to hear yours. I would like to know how the hell you managed to bite homegirl on her fingers and ears. Excuse my manners but I laughed hard as hell when I heard that. How did you manage to drive a lambo and bust her up like that? I mean either the story doesn't add up or Chris needs to be a nascar driver STAT! Larry plainly asked what happened in that car and this boy refused to answer. Share the details! Screw the feelings! I wanna know!!! So I wasted an hour of my life to watch you apologized and say other foolishness that I don't remember. OH WAIT! I remember one thing, Chris confirmed that him AND Rihanna were indeed riding jet skis at Diddy's house. He said that they were trying to rekindle their friendship or did I hear incorrectly? Because if so all that shade about him not being remorseful is wrong because she was there too -_-

Anyway I had no intentions about talking about this but I needed to blog and I needed a topic so HERE! All I really want is an album from the both of them you know. Tired of him moping, tired of her...walking around. They are really about to be put on my 'Why are you still here' list.

LOL at the fact that Chris's lil blue bow tie has a following and is a trending topic on twitter. LMAO even more that the bow tie has a twitter and is one of my followers. Oh I love humans and their antics.

It's That Time Of The Year Again! -_-

September is here [oh joy] and it is officially 8 days until school starts. I was all gung ho and ready to go until today. I could not wait for the college process until now. To be honest, I am scared out my ass. I have a fear of rejection [if you people haven't noticed, I have a lot of fears] so this whole receiving a small envelope in the mail thing is not sitting right with me. My fear of rejection goes beyond college letters [I don't even IM people first =/] but this is most important to me. I'm not used to getting the school I want because they always wait list me -_- but in the end I find my perfect fit so I know not to have my heart set on one specific college. What I am scared of is ending up at some hole in the wall college or not getting into college at all! They say there is a college for everyone yadda yadda but I am petrified. Everyone I know has gone to some of the top colleges and universities in the United States and I don't want to be that one who doesn't. I have no clue why I feel like it will be me but I have that inkling. I know I have the interview in the bag, college essays with some tweaking I have in a sack, my resume is pretty darn poppin and my SAT scores are coming up [in my defense I woke up 10 minutes before it started and I had to run around the corner in my pajamas]. My grades, however, are pretty proper. As and Bs...one C here...a fcking F there thanks to french. I blame my school for this because it could have been avoided. They took everyone out of that class but left me in there. 'Oh we believe in you!' Believe in me my ass! Smh muhhfckers I swear. Freshman year is perfect, sophmore was good...except that F, and junior year was pretty but could have been so much more amazing had it not been for an on going family issue that got in the way repeatedly. Anyway the main objective of this post was not to babble and complain but to make another checklist. I made my first one during junior year in one of my first posts and as I recall I sorta followed it. Well here is my senior year checklist!

1) All work, some play. First semester of senior year is your last chance to show colleges what you can do and that you will be a great addition to their institution academically. I will be working my butt off no doubt but there will be some play but not a lot. No parties, just chill with the mains, a bit of shopping, and my extra curriculars. SATs and ACTs will be even more amazing and I promise to be on point in every aspect of my life.

2) Time is on my side. Between school work, senate, and dance team, I have no clue on how I am going to distribute my time especially when I plan on getting a job and going back to dance school. I am usually good at time management so I think I will be fine if I make a schedule for myself.

3) Clock work. As I've mentioned many times, a JOB is a must. Not only will it benefit me and my fam but it will help me with financial aid and save me from ending up a starvin' marvin in college.

4) Network. I've been doing well in that department but I am taking it up a notch this year. I'm gonna network like my name is facebook [ew lame ass analogy but its okay]. Next stop world domination! Just Kidding...or not *sus face*

5) Focus. The bottom line of this all is to keep focus. I need to ignore all things that will tempt me to stray from my yellow brick road. No more worrying about foolish males, there are smarter, better looking, and taller ones in college lol. My life was consumed by in school and out of school drama so I'm gonna do it like Mary and declare no more drama in my life! I can go on forever but staying focused is the main goal.

Well so far that is all for my senior year checklist. I might add more if any point do come to mind. Everyone says I'll be fine because my grades aren't horrid [although in my mind they are] and I have my head on my shoulders but I feel the opposite =/. Anyway wish me luck this year because I promise you I will make tails spin. Smh @ my insecure to confident flips.

Slim is going back to "work" also known as trolling the internet for something to blog about.

“Thriller” in i-D by Emma Summerton

While everyone else is shoving Rihanna's Vogue editorial pictures down your throat [they are pretty dope no tea no shade], I will present to you 'Thriller' featuring Arlenis Sosa, Chanel Iman, Jourdan Dunn & Sessilee Lopez. Marinate in this tricks...














Either these were shot a while ago or Jourdan hides pretty darn well for 5 months. No fashion week for her =/

Oh How I Love Thee

Not Kim K. [although she is the only socialite I am fond of] but the skirt she is rocking. I brought that skirt to you guys earlier in the month and now look at it! Oh Kim K girl you can dress your butt off and kudos for that skirt because I envy the fact that you have it! Hmm...I smell a DIY project coming along. I refuse to be without that skirt or something similar. Aside from the skirt, I like that she paired it with simple platforms and an acid wash denim jacket. Children, if you haven't revived that denim jacket or at least bought one you are lacking in life. Definite staple for the summer and the warm days of the fall.

I just needed to do one blog today at least. I got my laptop choc full of ish to sharee
