Suffice to say, I would be able to not do laundry for probably a good solid two years and still have enough clothes to wear a new outfit everyday. And all said clothes are currently on my bedroom floor. I would never NEVER get rid of any of them, but something must be done. My current closet situtation is not working for me. Needs to better organized and maintained by myself. Not enough shoe storage either, as you can well imagine. I want to pull an all nighter with this one, but that's stupid because I have work tomorrow. </p><p>Must... plan... new... clothes filing system??</p><p>If any of you have any tips or tricks you'd like to share, please do.

The next two/three weeks are going to be CRAZY busy for me, I'm going to try and update as much as possible. But don't worry, you'll see PLENTY OF ME in Janurary.</p><p><a href="http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/?action=view&current=blazerrr.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/blazerrr.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p><em>Thrifted white blazer, random scarf, Beloved Aldo boots</em></p>maisondechaussureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00461063857607234427noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890459787505175367.post-14317142516717138182009-12-03T00:50:00.000-08:002009-12-03T00:52:24.471-08:00Question<p>Just a quick question; I was checking out what browsers you guys use, and I see the majority is Internet Explorer. Don't EVEN get my started on why you shouldn't be using that medieval torture device of a browser, but anyways, does the blog look okay? I have no idea, I use Opera, which is probably the lesser of two evils, between it and Firefox.</p><p></p><p>Enough techno-babble.</p><p>Shoot me an email if you're having difficulties: maisondechaussures@live.ca</p>maisondechaussureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00461063857607234427noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890459787505175367.post-40511938630292675412009-12-03T00:35:00.000-08:002009-12-03T00:46:14.242-08:00Work day<p>Another boring work day, but at least I remebered to bring my camera along! The only place to take a picture properly without being gawked at by people is on this little dock by the side of the river. </p><p>Anyways, to the outfit. Simple black dress pants, wide leg, cuffed at the bottom. Simple pointy toed black patent heels, very comfortable, my don't mess with me shoes. Not so simple turtle neck. It's actually really cool, it has cut-outs in the back and has a bunch of twisting and binding that reminds me of the SS10 Burberry Prorsum show. The twisting detail was fantastic. I have fallen pretty hard for the legging/pant things. I wonder if you could DIY it somehow? I saw a pretty sweet DIY of the skirts, very simply way to do it too, for the sewing impaired like me.</p><p>Anyways, </p><p>Inspiration:</p><p><a href="http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/?action=view&current=00140m.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/00140m.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p><em>Seriously! Those pants kill me! </em></p><p>Actual look:</p><p><a href="http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/?action=view&current=pants1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/pants1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p>I didn't get a good picture of the back detail because well, there were bra issues, and I just can't be walking around without a bra can I? And it was black, so.. you know... I didn't look TOO awful, although I'm sure it's like a huge faux pas, but it's work so, no biggie?</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p><em>Top and pant both from Sirens, Aldo shoes</em></p>maisondechaussureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00461063857607234427noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890459787505175367.post-44828723656942748692009-12-02T00:05:00.000-08:002009-12-02T00:16:25.053-08:00You can see why<p>Thought I'd post a few comparisons between Aldo shoes and the luxary brands. Now, I know some people feel that it's wrong for companies like Aldo and Steve Madden to "knock-off" these shoe designs, but I have to say, not all of us have thousands of dollars to spend on luxary shoes. These companies produce a fine quality product at a reasonable price. It's not realistic to expect people to spend $1500 on a pair of studded sandals, and why should you, when you obviously couldn't anyways, when you can get a pair for $135? Givenchy and Alexander McQueen aren't losing any money, because the people who buy the knock-offs couldn't even afford the real thing. So in conclusion, I don't see what all the fuss is about. They're nice shoes, nice price. And most of them will be out of season next year anyways, so I feel better about spending $50 on them rather than $500.</p><p><em>Edit: I'd like to add as well, If I *did* have money to spend on designer shoes, I would, but obviously a $900 pair of YSL shoes is just way, WAY out of my price range. Would rather eat and have heat thanks.</em></p><p><a href="http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/?action=view&current=comparison2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/comparison2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p><a href="http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/?action=view&current=comparison1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh181/beatleboxx/comparison1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p>maisondechaussureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00461063857607234427noreply@blogger.com2
