You may have noticed how creative I have been with my blogpost title (NOT) and those of you that are familiar with the FW10 Rodarte collection will know what I'm talking about...yes, the Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte shoes. I sometimes believe that I'm in heaven when I see stuff like this. Although I do find it kinda sad that his crossover collections seem to be better then his mainline collection. Regardless, he's still a genius and I ain't complaining.

I think I might prefer the full cream version, there's something very romantic about them.

Shoes you need...

Badly!!

I've always had a weakness for shoes, and if I was ever restricted to buying just one thing out of a bag, clothes or shoes, shoes all the way! I don't know why it is, most likely got it from my mother, although I think she kind of had a weakness for anything you had to buy. I went through a phase in my life where I completely gave up heels and thought I'd never wear them again (trainers were just too comfy!), then came along Nicholas Kirkwood who completely ruined my plan (my height might also be a bit of an issue, damn short genes). But then again, the pain (and I promise you, no matter how many people tell you a pair of high heels are comfy, they are NOT), sore feet, blisters, bad posture and feet deformities for all that, are completely worth it for these beauties. The higher the better!
