October 20, 2009

OMG, we finally get it! The collection, announced earlier this year, hits shelves on November 14^th and if past collaborations are anything to go by, queues — and mass hysteria — will promptly be forming around the corner. Here you have a great chance to see what we’ll have in November! In my opinion, that’s just amazing!

Retrospective to Balenciaga Fall 2006: Inspired by Mary-Kate

March 31, 2009

Mary-Kate Olsen has unique and very specific fashion style. Somebody love it, others hate. Well, it’s ok. I personally adore her over-sized dresses and tees, her trenches and especially her shoes. Can’t wait her own shoe collection. Of course, not only me love her looks, one of my gentle readers asked me to find similar to Mary-Kate boots.

Let’s look at these boots on Mary-Kate:

Mary-Kate Olsen

Careful reader and fan of Mary-Kate notices, that she’s wearing the boots for a while. I mean they are not from last collection. And that’s good, I mean she is a sort of devoted person who wears the piece many times, despite several seasons passed.

I’m sure you also like them :) Wanna have similar but for less money?
