Holiday Already??!! YSL 2009 fall Runway Booties Needed!!





Unbelievable that Christmas is around the corner when I am still having a vivid memory of we girls went to Vegas and had a blast there early this year!!!


Yesterday evening, I took 3 kids to Santana Row to join the Christmas tree's lightening night w/ high school Pal, Judy. It was fun and sure crackled my holiday mood already!!


The place was packed w/ people and we don't even feel the night was cold at all!!




The nutcracker!



The Greewich!



The Moose!



Kids had a preview of what tis' Christmas will be!! :)
 

That was yesterday!!  I wore out my kids successfully cause' normally Ilona or Heidi would get up again trying to get my another round of kisses and hugs but they didn't!! ^O^



This is Today!! 
I was in SF city during the day until I went to Judy's place to cook SWEET N' NOT-Spicy-at-all dishes to show my friend, Melody!! :) You, yes, Melody, I am talking to you!! Next time you better cook it for me when I visit your house!!! :P 



Barney's Christmas tree is a bit quirky looking!!







I had tried those YSL runway heels way back when I bought Givenchy wedge booties, and didn't think it was that impressive!! However, I don't know what's got into me *again* that I want them so bad and have to have it right away!! When Yu told me that those might be on-sale at Nordi. but didn't have my size in the store, I know I have to venture my way to SF city just to make sure I have A PAIR!! :P 


The hidden platform made this heels not that scary of walking-in at all!! :)






The shoes are getting "weird" looking year after year on the runway!! ^O^
Oh, you know what I am talking about......





Hope LA is still warm enough to swim. ..oh, gotta work-out extra for the holiday feast!! :O



My ODJ.


1. TOP:
  • Derek lam cashmere tank

3. Accessory:

I love this YSL heels very much and I am going to take it w/ me to LA during Thanksgiving!! (oh, I am not walking in those when shopping in Beverly hills....what do you think? Suicidal act?) :P



Then I changed to my work-out outfit to cook...just to show my friend how this easy dish can satisfy a whole family's stomach!! 



Got Shrimp!?!


Girls, sea food is great for your skin, so eat up!!!

Hey R! I nearly bought those exact YSL heels but didn't buy them scared that the height might be too much with those extra thin heels! They are just so fierce! So are they really comfy when walking? What size did you get BTW?

Oh....I have the same H&M cardigan...same color too! LOL!! Nice outfit! I love pinks with blacks...hehe!

USA is already in the festive season. Beautiful and fun! Here, we're a bit slower and not into into that yet... That reminds me, I need to buy a small Xmas tree this year for Mason to decorate....

Enjoy LA next week!

Cheers,
Mia
hi, Mia: yes, you know, when the first time i saw that heels...I only felt the proportion is so awkward when looking at side way of them, however, I think it is a great heels to go w/ almost everything too. From feminine to cool, casual looking...because it is black, covers the whole feet (it is called booties) so I think it won't be hard to matching every outfit.

I have not walked w/ them but I don't think this will be harder than my CL studded booites. :) I got size 39.

That cardigan came out last year too, I think Yu just told me that she had a slightly pinkish/taupe color from last year. yah, I love bright pink too cause' it flatters my skin tone.

Here in USA, the Christmas is a major holidays and it is New Year to Asia...a bit different. But I always think New Year is more fun since we got almost 10 days off and we can receive red envelops too....

Thanks, I gotta see where Yu booked our hotel then. :)
WOW...gorgeous shoes!

how can you not wear those when shopping in beverly hills?! you must! if your feet can handle it :) seriously, every time i read your blog i feel my closet is lacking another important piece of clothes, accessory, bag, shoes... So were they on sale. Feeling a lot better now, thanks girl, but my lil one is sick with a low fever for the past few days. as for what i want for xmas, i think i want a van cleef alhambra pendant in turqoise. what about you? What are you guys going to do in LA? is that going to be your vacation?
Miri said…
Those shoes are amazing! I can't believe christmas is only just over a month away, so scary!!
THanks, Mike. But I always thought MAN would like heels w/ peep toe or at least you can see where the toes are INSIDE the heels..hah...
Hi, Susan: I am not sure if I will shop that much in LA...but I kinda want to browse some nice jewelry!! :)
Thanks, Angela. I love beret..I have couple...white, yellow (mustard) and now black w/ mini studs. :)
hey, Catherine: I am sorry to hear that your little daughter isn't feeling well. Low fever is not that bad and I have heard couple of my friends that their kids had fever for one day, couple days but recovered pretty soon. I guess it is good news as it is not swine flu. :) I know you must be worried a lot too!!! Hope she is doing a lot better too.

Oh, LA...hum..ok, maybe I will wear them and THEN I will tell you how did my feet take it!! haha....... better bring another pair of low heels w/ me in the car too!! :P

Ah~ the van Cleef....every woman's dream. That's very cute one, hope you do get something you like on Christmas even it is not the exact!
Hi, Miri:

Oh, you live in another half of sphere.... :) normally in January when here gets so chill, I would like to have a vacation there...but right now, I prefer Christmas w/ Santa, Raindeer...and white SNOW..haha... oh it must be so different when Christmas is in SUMMER!! (oh, not literally.) ;0

aggh the shoes!!! :)
hi, Lilee: yes, the heels are unbelievably comfortable.


R.I.P Daul Kim, btw. Such a young age, I guess she probably is lost but found peace in Heaven now. :)
Sylvia said…
I just cant believe its that time of year already! Gorgeous shoes and outfit!
Claud said…
Hi R, WOW! sexy and gorgeous YSL booties. I'd probably take a few tumbles walking in them lol. How much taller you are when wearing this high skyscraper heels? do you get taller than your DH? just curious.

Have a great Saturday!
Haute World said…
Wow, I can't believe they already have all the Christmas stuff up in your area! It's odd, because they're just starting here, but I feel it's almost too warm this year to get into the mood. Fabulous YSL shoes by the way... I think the hidden platform probably makes it more comfortable than your average heel...
Thank you, Sylvia. I bet New York is much chill than here. :)

I like your photos very much.. they are all very whimsical beauty.
hey, Claudia: hah..I don't know, I think I will be taller than DH but I have not walk in those heels W/ HIM around. haha..


You have a great weekend too.
Hi, Haute girl:
yes, the heels are very sturdy than my Marni, and CL studed booties n' very prive peep toe as those three are the highest heels I got. However, so far I have not wore YSL heels for over an hour standing or walking so I can really justify it yet...wait until we shop at Beverly Hills and I will find out!! haha...

Have a great weekend!!

i love those boots!! u know i was thinking about putting them on my list and i see you wearing it now~ u know i think we have the same taste in shoes.. we have a lot of shoes in common.. anyway hope u are having a great thanks giving
hah.. Cutie: yes, I guess so.. but I am not getting the Alexander Wang military boots as it reminds both me and Isabel school days... I think I have similar looking shoes way back in college.... But this YSL booties are so SPECIAL, I've never had shoes like this so it is a must-have for me. :)

Oh, we are going down to LA... shopping for black FRIDAY!!! yah~~~

Thanks, Laura. I like your simple blog which almost makes me think that you must be an easy-going girl too. :)

Yes, what else would someone knows her/his style other than doing experiments.

Dude, I'm not sure if they're exactly the same but my parents make that same exact shrimp dish and its been my favorite ever since I was little. When I was living on my own, my mom would pack that for me whenever I came home for visits :)

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde

Birthday Gift from My Dearest Darling!! Oh, Hermes!!

Oh, Hermes!! Oh, my love!! I mean both my DH and Hermes!! :P My SA insists me saying nothing about this beauty on the website. And I promised her!! The truth is the picture is worth more than a thousand words, let me share my ultimate excitement silently!! A little extra business for my SA goes a long way for our relationship!! Hermes white leather on golden studded cuff can go w/ my Chanel matte white reissue 227 That's my 09 multicolored hot air balloon print Hermes scarf The cuff can also go w/ my 35cm Gris Tourterelle Hermes Togo Birkin !!! I almost faint when I received it!! I believe every rookie of Hermes feels the same as I do!! hahah.... I think I catch the color very true! (even it is indoor at my house at night as you can tell) Ta da~! My newest addition to my little luxury collection!! Again, 35cm Gris Tourterelle Hermes Togo Birkin !

Wedge + Clog ! MINE is Clog + Heel!

pic. courtesy from WhoWhatWhere website. I came across this Max Mara clog heels. I can't help myself buying it. Now I am very excited.....why? Cause' it is extraordinary. I love the golden studded along the leather and since I don't like wedge too much, this stiletto is perfect for me. So, did you see the bottom picture to the right? Kate Olsen!!? or Dree Hemingway's looks might work w/ Max Mara clog heels. ( Whose pic. is the very first one w/ fuchsia vest) Normally I am not a copy cat, but this time, I will see if I have something similar like what she wears w/. Yes, that will be a good start to tackle this pair of heels.
