The Shoes for the Jeans

Manolo says, one of the Manolo's many internet friends has asked the Manolo the question.
I am currently searching for the shoes to wear with the jeans. I already have the super fantastic calf-high boots (including the Fryes), but the shoes, they are hard to find. I am a bit of the tough chic, so they must not be, how you say, too girly. I want the shoes of the substance with the sophisticated silhouette (the ankle boots, they are okay, if you can recommend any). Also, they must have the bit of the heel, as I cannot walk in the flat shoes or the wedge soles.
Manolo says, there are many shoes that the Manolo would reccomend for the wearing with the jeans, however, if you are looking for the "tough chic" shoes of the quality, the Manolo he would recommend the shoes of the Donald J. Pliner.

Frequently, too many of the peoples, when they talk of the tough girl, they think of the clunky shoes, but this one above, it is chic, it is tough, but it is also most stylish. It even has the matching handbag.

This ankle boot from the Pliner it the no-nonsense shoe, indeed, the super fantastic girl who wears this boot would brook no interference from the gallery of the peanuts.

Manolo says, by the way, the Manolo he has talked before about the tough girl boots of the Donald J. Pliner. They are indeed super fantastic.

Separated at the Birth?

Paris Hilton?Paris Hilton?

Manolo says, will the real Paris Hilton please stand up.

Ha! The Manolo he loves his little jokes.

Of the course, that on the left is not the Paris Hilton, that is the sister Nikki, when she had the hair of blonde.

P.S. The Manolo's internet friend the Blackbird, she had the same idea the month ago!

From the Archives of the Manolo: The Tiny Feets

Manolo says, recently the Manolo he has received several of the emails like the following from his internet friends:
I am writing on behalf of my roommate. She is possessing of the small feets, so small she still shops in the children's section! We are adults, but she wears only a 4 in womens, or a 3 in the "Growing Girls" (gasp!) section. The usual incredible Zappos has struggled to provide us with options. Might you know where we could find shoes for the small footed woman?
This question it is one that the Manolo he has answered in the past.

*****From the Archives of the Manolo*****

Manolo says, on the one of the hands, many women the Manolo knows they would sell their grannies to the white slavers have the too small feets.

Yet on the other of the hands, it is indeed the serious problem, not to be able to wear the super fantastic adult lady shoes.

Manolo says in the situation of the too gigantic, or too teeny feets it is the best to have the shoes custom made. Yes, this it is very expensive, too expensive for the most of the peoples, but it is the best.

But if you do not have the moneys, you will have to resort to the Cinderella of the Boston, or the Dainty Feet, the companies that specializes in the teeny size shoes.

The Manolo he must now ask his many internet friends if they have the better solution for the lady with tiny feets.

***************

Manolo says, happily the internet friends of the Manolo they were very helpful to the small-footed womens. Indeed, one of the Manolo's shoe-blogging friends, she provided the good advice from the personal experience, and the Manolo he even revisited the question the few weeks later.

This, it is one of the things the Manolo he loves about the blogging, the community of the peoples who can together solve the problems, or at least talk the problems into the the ground.

The Cynthia Rowley On The Sale


Cynthia Rowley - Twizzler (Wine Croc Print)  Manolo Likes! Click!


Manolo says, this shoe from the Cynthia Rowley, it has the very flattering and attractive lines, the beautiful curves. This shoe it would be like the showcase for your feets.

Even the better, they are on the sale, saving the smart shopper more than $100 of the American dollars. It is also available in a springtime turquoise that the Manolo finds strangely compelling.

Of the course, there are many such bargains available at the Manolo's Basement of the Bargains.

The Manolo No-Poncho Pledge



Manolo says, it looks like something the carefully groomed, pedigreed siamese had dragged in.


Manolo says, the Manolo he thought he had buried the poncho this most unattractive of the fashions. But now, thanks to the Martha, it is again rising from the grave!

Formerly, the Manolo he had regarded the poncho as merely the benign if ridiculous fashion trend.

Now, the Manolo he realizes that the poncho it is the evil incarnate.

It is the loathsome seducer of the womens. It calls in the sweet voice, "I am the poncho, if you wear me I will help you conceal your flaws. I promise, your hips, they will disappear under my protective cover of man-made fibers. Look, darling, you can even make me yourself for $1.49 in the material. Choose the aqua yarn. It is pretty no?"

And so you go with the poncho, and you wear it out to the business meeting, on the hot date, or to the social of the church, and all it seems well.

Then, one morning, you wake up hung over, and the bank account it is empty, and there are twenty-seven ponchos of various ridiculous colors and patterns in the closet.

In that instant you realize that your life it has been wasted on this loser of the fashion. Worse, thanks to the ubiquity of the digital cameras, for the next twenty years you will have to look at the family photos in which you appear to be the over-stuffed sofa covered with the homemade afghan.

Do not have this happen to you. Do not be seduced by the poncho.

You can help the Manolo put the stake into the heart of this hideous vampire by taking the Manolo No-Poncho Pledge.

The Manolo No-Poncho Pledge
"I (insert the name here) swear on the head and/or the grave of my sainted granny to never wear, buy, knit, crochet, or fashion from the old throw rug, the poncho. And if the poncho it is given to me as the gift, I will graciously thank the giver and then, when she has left, put the poncho into the dog's bed and/or the trash as the case she may be. Only by doing these things faithfully can I help end for the good of the humanity the scourge that is the poncho. So help me Manolo."

Manolo says, it is indeed sad that is has come to this point.

P.S. Many thanks to the Manolo's internet friend the Dena for pointing out the pictures of the Martha with her poncho.
