Shoe Party - Tony Bianco AW '12



I knew yesterday was going to be a big day and that I would undoubtedly be a tired little ragdoll by the end of it...but the exhaustion that shot me in the face point-blank when I slipped in between the sheets of my bed last night was beyond words. 7am-6pm at two different jobs and then got to end the day with a visit to the Tony Bianco A/W '12 Blogger preview and some hot thai food on an even hotter evening.



Meeting Anthony (Tony) Bianco was incredible (and gorgeous Jasmin from Friend in Fashion). The fact that he was even there in the first place to meet us made me want to fold him up like an origami crane and keep him like a trophy on my bookcase (amongst all my awards for participation and completing reading challenges..when I was about 8). He was so lovely and I am still star struck.

I love how they grouped the shoes on different tables - there was a reptile print party going on on one table, and then mammal print on the next, a boot party, a colourblock party and an understated black essential heel party. All were equally fun to attend (I am losing my grip on this metaphor) and I have my eye locked on a pair of gold platform pumps.








UH SNAKE PRINT AND A CURVED HEEL. It seems like something Angelina Jolie's character in the movie Wanted would wear, while curving bullets in the middle of a rainforest





Seahorse clutch that Lucinda from Thrift and Thread made herself. Talent.






I had to wake early this morning despite needing a good rest because of an interview and roamed around the city afterwards for a good two hours, not doing anything and with my eyelids half closed. I ended up at my workplace, yelling incoherent gibberish at my poor co-worker. Turns out sleeping is sort of essential for survival.

Life envy! This looks like a really awesome event to go to. I hope I spend a lot of time doing this once I can incorporate fashion more into my life. And this is just pure shoe porn, ugh. The curved heel with snakeskin pair is just gorgeous.
