so this is the new year...

Here's to the end of 2010, and to the start of 2011! New beginnings are right around the corner...

Hope you all have a safe and wonderful NYE!

I just bought these shoes. They will be all mine in 5-10 business days. And tickets to see Spring Awakening on tour in Kalamazoo. Good thing I get paid again Monday.

holy haute couture, fashionista!

Here's more amazingly incredible detail shots from the Couture shows! Gaultier was all over the place creatively, while Elie Saab and Valentino had very equally creative, yet opposite collections--all white, and all black :) It was hard to pick my favorites from the 80+ detail shots each collection had!
