2010 Grammys get the mediocre fashion award!

Never mind the shoes for a moment... this year's Grammy fashions were sad. It's like everyone gave up or lost a bet and was forced to waer whatever peice of crap their stylist drunkenly handed them!

I mean I get it.. I guess. When we think of hot red carpet fashions the Grammys pale in comparison to the Oscars or the Golden Globes but couldn't artists make an effort?!


The Good....

Ok so it's a little ice-capades...but it's cute (and she has killer legs). Lea Michele~ Actor on Glee

Classic and gorgeous from from head to toe! She looks like a yummy vanilla desert!

Keri Hilson~ Recording Artist              

One word... Hot! From her sexy hair and smokey eyes to those awesome red shoes Mrs. Miller gets an A+ Marisa Miller~ Victoria's Secret Model

When you're this hot you don't need a last name I guess... These two are oozing with style! I am a sucker for sequents! Usher & Mya~ Recording Artists                                                         

The Bad...

Remember my sequent comment? I sort of take it back! In my defence I would argue that Katy's dress is more or less covered in fish scales... and much like China town on a hot sunny afternoon... it stinks! As for her financé... I don't know what to say. He looks like a douchebag action figure complete with check hair! Katy Perry & Russell Brand                                                   

Neko Neko Neko.... I like you... and unlike most of the people at the Grammys you have talent. Sadly your voice is not going to help you! Did you even brush your hair today? 

Neko Case~ Recording Artist

So I don't watch Jersey Shore but I still can't escape the hot orange hobbit mess that is Snooki. It's not that what she is wearing is completely horrible... but it's the Grammys, not club night in the Bronx! Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi~ Jersey Shore

The Ugly...

Wow Marilyn Manson looks like shit! Oh wait... it's Lady Gaga! I am not even gonna bother insulting this outfit, instead I am disappointed in Gaga... you're weird we get it... now get over yourself would you? All for all of you who say she is original and I  should give Gaga the tranny love she so deserves, I got two words... Cher & Bjork! They did weird first and better.  Lady Gaga~ Recording Artist

This dress defies explanation... Twitter dress?! Sweet Jesus!                         Imogen Heap~ Recording Artist

Since her music career is going nowhere, Ciara has become a struggling dominatix! Ciara~ Recording Artist

I like Rihanna and she has had a rough year but this dress, hair and makeup are abominations! Come to think of it her style has been going down the toilet for months. How many bird's died for this?!  Rihanna~ Recording Artist

Shoes for a good cause help Haitians get back on their feet

If you'd like to help out but feel like your contribution may not be very much, consider buying shoes for the people of Haiti!

Soles for Souls: Project Haiti is hoping to send 50,000 pairs of shoes in 50 days to Haitians who desperately need this basic necessity. 

Donation packages are available from as little as $5 and with that contribution you will have purchased two pairs of shoes for someone in Haiti.

As most of you know I am half Haitian and my father's entire family lives in Jacmel which is a little town near Port-au-Prince that was hit really hard by the earthquake this month.

Most of my family is ok but the damages to their house has been the hardest part.

I have a pregnant cousin who now spends her nights sleeping outside in the grass for fear of more after shocks! This entire country relies on its diasporas to provide financial assistance... this tragedy has proved to be too much for most families to deal with and YOUR help is greatly appreciated by all.

In addition there are many fantastic organizations who are raising funds and awareness including the Canadian Red Cross as well as Wyclef Jean's Yele charity organization and Oxfam International.

Here is one of my favourite Haitian songs... enjoy

I love me a good spat!

So winter is back... which sucks because I had just started wearing pumps and shoes again and

now my little legs get stupid cold

in the wind :-(

Solution?! Spats!

Spats have been around since the Victorian ages and were used by French military in the 1800's (so they have more street cred than 80's leg warmers!)

I found amazing spats both long and short....

These Irregular Choice Leg Spats are $80

Super sexy leather Chanel spats... (price not listed, yikes!)

but if you are really looking for something unique you can always make your own or have them custom made like these super cute Etsy spats from Efiafair

Whatever you do look for unique details such as buttons and prominent seams.

Ladies and gentlemen I have a problem!

So I have a serious shopping problem! For years my husband (Steve) has been telling me about this but it wasn't until we moved this summer and I saw how many garbage bags of stuff I owned.

My biggest issue is by far is shoes!

I have about 100 pairs not including flip flops or running shoes...

The following is my love, my life... my obsession!
