Shoes Of The Week - Crockett & Jones Boot


It's funny because the last time I was in Spain, working out my prototypes, I was thinking of the different combinations of colors/materials to use on my balmoral boots and a medium brown paired with a snuff suede was precisely what I had in mind, until I saw these boots by Crockett & Jones..... While my boot is quite different, aesthetically in shape and pattern, and using similar colors is by no means copying, being the weird individual that I am, I am now having second thoughts about using these colors as I do not want have something that is too similar to someone else's shoe/boot. At least not for my first collection....but then again, I have a couple of months to think about it and when my prototypes are all finalized, I am planning on giving all of you a chance to influence the different color options that my shoes will come in.

But anyway, back to the subject at hand. When I saw these, I was pleased nonetheless, not only because I like them and enjoy shining shoes that I like, but also because these shoes come from an individual that appreciates nice shoes and it always makes me happy to meet people like this. This is already the second pair of his that I have put on the blog and am sure that there will be more to come...

I won't be posting until at least Sunday, so I wanted to wish all of you not only a fantastic weekend but a wonderful New Years!! Enjoy the festivities......and until 2012!

Best,

Justin, "The Shoe Snob"

It's All In The Detail

Picture Courtesy Of: Moda Image

One of my dear blog readers, who frequents London as business calls, just happen to pop in today for an updated chat on life, shoes and the future of my career. Because he happened to visit me in the flesh, I showed him the pictures (via my camera phone) that I have of my upcoming collection. The pictures show what is current with my prototype production, but we still have a month or so before they are complete. Nevertheless, he was able to get an idea of my collection to come and a feeling of how it differs from others while at the same time provides a feeling of familiarity: 'classicr with a twist.'

We discussed that in a saturated market, where everything under the sun has already been done, the one thing that differentiates one another, is the minute detailing. That being, when I saw these loafers (above), by Aubercy, they immediately stood out to me. Granted, some people would not appreciate this. But for someone like me who has seen 10 million different pairs of shoes is his life and purposefully looks at them, this would have just been another loafer (of a trillion) in calf and suede, had it not that the red stitching. But because it does have this contrasted stitching, it no longer is one of a trillion, it becomes one of one (or maybe 2 or 3 etc). It stands out and makes me stop and say, "now there is something different, something worth pausing to give a double-take."

And this is what I hope to do for all of you. To give you something that stands out, not in an loud or ostentatious way, but in a way that is discreet yet noticeable. A way that says that you, the wearer, appreciate your shoes and the small details in life, the little ones that make us stand out from the crowd....

EOTD: FrontCover Moondust Collection

It's been months since I posted an EOTD but with it being Christmas and me being a beauty obsessed blogger, it was inevitable that I'd pick up some amazing new make-up this week!

These pigments are from a gift set that I bought in the Boots sale on boxing day. I always look forward to Boots' Christmas sale because I know I'll be able to find some absolute bargains on the FrontCover sets. This year, I'd already decided that I wanted the Moondust set and I picked it up for half price at £8.

I normally steer well clear of loose pigments because I hate the fallout and the way the shimmer always seems to end up all over my face, hands and clothes! But these were too beautiful to leave on the shelf and I'm so glad I took the plunge!


I used Saddle brown on the outer half of my lid, then blended Lime Lime into the inner corner and underneath. Then I used Burnt Carrot on the outer edge and underneath my lower lashes.
The eyeliner is E.L.F's Cream Eyeliner in black and the eyelashes are some cheapies I found in my lashbox!

Outfit: Look for Less

Ok, so Randi (@rjohnson355 on Twitter) challenged me to take the outfit from Shoe of the Day #12 & recreate it in a more budget friendly version.  I thought....Pssh, easy-peasy.  Um, wrong.  Do you know how hard it is to find an affordable,  PRETTY green cardigan (instead of the lime green ones) that is IN stock?!?!  Not easy.



This is the outfit that I was challenged to recreate. The cost of this outfit is: $303...NOT including the cardigan, handbag, and ring, as those are "sold out" and the price was not listed.  Being on the optimistic side, I'd guess the cardigan to go for (aprox.) $19.99, the ring (aprox.) $10.99, & handbag (aprox.) $35.00.  This would bring the total to $368.98.




Here's what I came up with to get the look for less:





Ok, I switched the main color to white, instead of green, for two reasons:  1~ like I said, a green cardigan is relatively hard to find in stock for a good price, and 2~ White is more versatile...you can throw another color under it, mix up the shoes and/or other accessories & have a whole different outfit!  "My" outfit totals:  $166.92!!  That's a savings of $192.06!  You could get a whole second outfit with the savings!  :)


Here's the breakdown:  Cardigan, WalMart $15.  Blouse, Old Navy $26.94.  Jeans, Old Navy $39.94.  Handbag, ShoeDazzle $39.95.  Necklace, Jewelry Queen $3.11.  Ring, Overstock Jeweler $16.99.  Shoes, Amazon $24.99.

To make it even less expensive, you can do a simple green tank, instead of the blouse.  The one below is only $9.00 at Target, and comes in a variety of colors!

**Also, right now at Old Navy, they're offering up to 50% off and FREE shipping online.  Up to 75% off in stores!  So, you could possibly cut the price of the blouse and jeans in HALF (or more!).  If you aren't a ShoeDazzle member already, when you join, your 1st item is 20% off, so you could get the bag for $31.96.


So, what do you think?  How'd I do?!?!  I'd love to hear feedback.

What I Am Wearing



It's been quite a lovely Fall/Winter season here in London, weather-wise, which has allowed me to wear things that would be otherwise saved for the Spring/Summer, such as this light gray Prince of Wales (POW) suit. While I think that I have only been able to wear it once (as it was just recently completed), I am eagerly awaiting the warmer weather to be able to flaunt it's beauty. I had always wanted a POW suit and now that I finally have one, I am excited to see all of the wonderful combinations that I can create with it. Here, unfortunately, I went the boring route with my black loafers, as even though the weather might have been relatively nice, you just never know when it might start raining. And to take a chance with my shoes, for me, is just a no-no. But as soon as Spring comes, you can bet that the browns, blues, suedes and tans will be the only shoes that I will be pairing with this suit....

Shoes: Miro by Septieme Largeur
Suit: Old bespoke, altered for me by Chittleborough & Morgan
Shirt: Can't remember, but not Primark this time...from TK Maxx (in US = TJ Maxx)
Tie: Either XMI or Ike Behar
