Do you ever feel like you’re in a rut?
With your job, your hair, your style, your diet, your hobbies…
… I guess I mean, in life, in general.
Every couple of years those sinking feelings creep up on me.
Especially around my birthday.

The ugliest, yet comfiest clog | A Birkenstock Boston review
I’m pretty sure that Gucci Princetown mules was the kindling to this.
… and Isabel Marant’s Mirvin shoes was the match that must have lit it up.
All I know for sure is that a slew of designers (Marni, J.W. Anderson, and by the time this goes to publication, multiple others…) are putting out their interpretations of a classic clog:
The Birkenstock Boston.

Sizing, where to buy online, and more | a Celine Shoes review
There’s always the thing that got away.
The fleeting crush, the perfect meal your favourite restaurant took off their menu, or, even worse, the shoe that got away.
For me, the shoes were Chanel Cruise 2018/19 Silver Mary Janes.
For whatever reason (read: I was broke), I didn’t get them.
From then on, a new rule was implemented: buy the shoes.

Are they the best luxury heels? | A Jimmy Choo Romy Review
For me, it means something to know who or what inspired a piece I plan to wear…
Manolo Blahnik BBs were named after Brigitte Bardot — I dig her French flare and in turn can adopt un peu de son attitude in my outfits.
… but who are Jimmy Choo Romy heels named after?
This is a 100% conspiracy (reached out to Jimmy Choo’s PR and didn’t get a response), but I’d assumed they’re named after Romy Schneider.

Chanel Ballet Flats Review: Sizing, Prices, & What You Need To Know
With Chanel’s infamous price hikes, Chanel ballet flats have become seriously expensive.
Considering that in 2008, they cost $550 USD, it’s actually kind of nuts… actually, a 36.36% price increase for a pair of shoes is all the kinds of nuts.
… but here’s something even nuttier, in 2008 I skipped my high school prom for a pair of Chanel ballet flats.
While the girls in my grade were fussing over prom dresses, dates and makeup appointments, I was tracking down a pair of two-tone Chanel ballet flats.

Sizing, Quality, Stockists & More | K. Jacques Sandals Review
K Jacques have been making sandals in St. Tropez since the 1930s.
They were handmade by artisans then… and 90 years later, they still are.
Basically, K. Jacques have been the sandals that the well-heeled French have been wearing for close to a decade.
K. Jacques has worked with Givenchy, Isabel Marant, and a particularly interesting collaboration with Opening Ceremony.
Les gens at K Jacques St Tropez sure know how to keep up with the times.

I don’t hate them | a Chanel espadrilles review & how to wear
Chanel ballet flats? Love them.
Chanel slingbacks? Love them.
Chanel espadrilles? … I just can’t decide if I love them.
It’s not my fault though, like, I didn’t even really want them…
