Oy. Depressionista has become my new nickname the past several days based on the fact that I look like an orphan from “Annie” (it’s these damn directional charcoal grey knits I’ve layered..even my Chanel bag is ombre grey) and stare at 5th Avenue windows with the longing of something to buy yet can’t afford. I get it, the economy sucks ass, save your money…blaa blaa blaa…but this “trend” is boring me. Enough. This doesn’t work for someone who needs to keep the economy alive by buying the newest and most fercious trends designers offer.
But yesterday a sparkle came back to my Les Miz eyes and felt as if I may start lactating again when I saw…ready for the word?…MAGENTA patent studded platform Tribute sandals at YSL. God! When was the last time you said Magenta? (probably the last time you watched Blues Clues with your kids.) Everytime you see a color like that at YSL, that’s the thing, the one investment (if you must or are strapped for cash) to make. Because the fashion colors go first and YSL is known for those colors-yellow, citrine, teal, orange…ahhhhhh, heaven! . It was like I went from the black and white version of the Wizard of Oz to the color in no time.
Amazing! I suggest no matter what your financial situation is and you still have legs and your front teeth…get thyself to Bergdorf’s and Neiman’s STAT. You know what happens if you don’t snap that shit up immediately? They’re gone to someone else like Solange Knowles, Beyonce’s sister…and you missed out and they can’t locate them anywhere in the USA and it’s your own damn fault!
YSL Magenta new tribute sandals. Sex on a stiletto, sweets. They made me look quite f*&@able, grey and all. You can wear hair rollers with those shoes and the guys wouldn’t care. Isn’t THIS what’s important now? That something like this makes you jump up and down and clap like seal even when you’re 401 is depleting-is that a word?
I’m back! I’m…Fierce! Sasha Fierce! $795 at Neiman Marcus.com

Can’t wait to tell you about another YSL purchase on sale at BG! The friggin fashion olympics at that blasted 40%. I pulled something in my back as a result! More to come.
Oh my gosh those YSL shoes are beyond hot!
If I wore those with my chic black dress and gorgeous diamond necklace my fiance bought me from http://www.idonowidont.com people would call me Kelly Fierce!
Shoes like that need are what every girl should have in their closet. I need a pair of those ASAP, now I have to hint it to my fiance!
