Simple and chic

Orange accent

Fashion riot!

I refuse to be a victim, I refuse to be a victim, I refuse to be…

The fashion of shoes is changing a little slower than with clothes. Why do I say so? I’ve noticed that for the last several years the idea of a „sexy shoe“ didn’t change so much. Of course, the models and the colors change every season, there are different styles, every designer is trying to promote his vision, but what’s widely spread and considered to be sexy and trendy is similar. Here’s what I’m talking about in my amateur sketch:

Look at these two ankle strap shoes. The accent of the „Now“ one is on the ankle part, it lifts all the shoe up and looks sexier. I suppose the majority would prefer this one when they see both on the feet of a real person (without even realizing why). The reason is that in the last few years it was a huge trend all the ankle sandals, boots, and everything which is close to the ankle or on the front part of the foot. See these for instance:

Dior 2008 Fall RTW

John Galliano 2009 Fall RTW

Hermes 2010 Spring RTW

Sergio Rossi 2011 Spring RTW

Donna Karan 2012 Spring RTW

Of course, these are all very different, but if you look closer, you will realize that the accent in all of these shoes is on the ankle part or around it. The toe part is usually very minimal especially the last two years.

Now here’s my statement! I’ve decided to be against this! I found my old shoes with the thin straps on the top and a massive one on the toe part, they even have square toes and wide square heel which is not even straight, but becoming wider as it goes down 🙂 – everything anti-fashion! I found the right outfit for them and I made a walk like that in Paris. Guess what! All the women were looking at my feet as if it was some new trend. I guess the most shocking was the duck toes. I followed the sight of a girl who first looked at my outfit, then followed down to the shoes and just when she thought it’s over and was about to look aside, she gazed at my shoes for a second time. I’m sure she was very curious where I bought them from… Anyway, I’m just trying to say that being stylish and interesting doesn’t always mean you need to have the newest fashion piece. It just means to be confident in yourself and to be brave enough to go against the rules from time to time.

 

 

Bulgarian beauty: Stefie / Българска хубост: Стефи

Here she is – my friend and the person who supplies me with the best photos on this blog. Isn’t she adorable with her red hair and cute summer outfit.

Ето я – моята приятелка и човекът, който ме снабдява с най-добрите снимки в този блог. Не е ли прекрасна с червената си коса и тази сладурска лятна премяна (простете, не можах да намеря по-добър превод на outfit).

 

Summeeeeeer! Hurraaaaay! :)

Several degrees more and a full sky of sun can make a person much more positive.I am full of energy this week and I am ready for new challenges! Besides, it’s the last week of the summer sales in Paris so I’m going to do my last cheap shopping. I hope I’ll find something cute in my size. Anyway, enjoy my naked back meanwhile.
