I used to have a lot of collections as kid, ranging from normal things like sea shells and beach glass to weirder ones like pom poms, can tabs, and little plastic frogs. Now I collect creeper and flatform shoes, and the bigger and funkier, the better. All of the following shoes would be happily welcomed into my humble collection;
Clockwise from top left: Underground, Jeffrey Campbell, Prada, Underground, customized Underground, Moonspoon Saloon, Jeffrey Campbell, Ashish x Underground.

Yep, its that time of year again! It’s the month where my fellow July-born Leos and I get to be vain and self-indulgent. So here it is, my wishlist for the big 2-0. I wouldn’t actually ask my family or friends for most of this because some of it is embarassingly expensive, but that’s what my blog is for, drooling, right?
Clockwise from top left;
1) The Jeffrey Campbell “Atacoma” wedge rip-offs. I’ve been dying over the original Acne ones since they first hit the blogosphere ages ago, and since then there have been several knock-off versions. These are my favorite. Available at Nasty Gal.
2) It wouldn’t be my birthday if I wasn’t lusting over some camera or other, and this year its the Polaroid 300. I love the new chubby take on the classic Polaroid Instant, and this is the perfect camera for pretending to work in fashion. Available here in three colours.
3) This Fummel + Kram embroidered russian doll scarf is sooo gorgeous. I blogged about it here, and I won’t even link to wear you can buy it because the price is embarrassing.
4) I’m not usually a fan of sequins but the fact that its a motorcycle jacket silhouette makes this amazing. I like it because it can be casual but you could also wear it out when you are trying to be fancy (something I have discovered I’m not very good at). Available at Nasty Gal.
5) The Urban Decay Naked palette is like, all my favorite eyeshadow shades in one beautiful case. Obsessed. Available at Urban Decay.
6) I know you are all sick of hearing about the Jeremy Scott TV glasses, as I’ve posted them on four seperate occasions now. But true obsession means persistance, and I am still lusting over these. By some miracle they are not soldout at Opening Ceremony (hint hint sugar daddies).
7) I looove Bernhard Willhelm and this is such a rad colour for a nail polish (not to mention awesome packaging). Available at Doshaburi.
What’s at the top of your wish list right now?

Sorry for the lack of updates, I have had limited access to the ol’ Interweb as of recently. I’ve moved out of my place in London and am traveling since I don’t move into the apartment in Paris until June. In the meantime, feast your eyes upon these incredible Xanadu wedges by Jeffrey Campbell…I must locate and purchase these immediately. Not only are they deliciously curvy and winged, you can also check your lipstick on your shoe thanks to the mirror panels (though this might not look all that elegant if attempted in public).
Available online at NastyGal.

Up until now, my favorite shoe lines were TUK, Eject and Jeffrey Campbell…but I may have found a sole mate in these Irregular Choice wedges.
“What an Angel” wedge (top) and “Flashing Lights” wedge (bottom) available online at Irregular Choice.

These are amazing. Is it possible to order a zebra right foot and a leopard left foot? I want to mix and match :)

I only like flowery things if they are appropriately over the top and obnoxiously colourful. These fit the bill.
Jeffrey Campbell, you slay me.
Available at ModCloth.

NastyGal/Urban Outfitters mashup…I should really stop procrastinating and write my Ethics paper.

Creeper update: I’ve got a match! Three in a row, creeper inspired shoes.
Free People Suede Creepers
Jeffrey Campbell Studded Creepers
Alex. Wang Creepers

Apparently, creepers are serving as inspiration for various shoe designers this fall. A shoe that was once only sported by the pompadour-rocking, neon leopard print clad psychobilly elite, the brothel creeper is the Doc Marten of the psychobilly and goth scenes. And now, not only is there an Alexander Wang version, there’s also a Jeffrey Campbell version retailing at $140. Are they in the punk spirit at that price? Not really. Do I badly want them? Yes…
Available at shopbop.
