Love this Quote and Fashion History reference

“If you and I were 16th-century prostitutes wading through the Venetian filth, I could see a point to us balancing precariously on two blocks of wood.” –Lisa Armstrong wonders how clogs sneaked back into fashion.

Lisa is refering to chopines- shoes worn during that century.

Extant chopines at the Metropolitan Museum in New York.

Like a Kid in a Sweet Shop

Yesterday was one the best days ever! I got to help pull shoes and clothes for a shoot on Wednesday. The clothes were from American Apparel and we basically did a 'supermarket sweep' around the Carnaby St store. We got lots of amazing shoes and necklaces also.

Some of our pile at the till

All our clothes and shoes in the taxi (it was too heavy to carry)

I'll put the pictures from the shoot up later this week
