Shoe of the Day #8

Shoe of the Day is......

Jessica Simpson's Houndstooth peep toe pumps.  I think Houndstooth is HIDEOUS.  It ranks right up there on the ugly scale with Paisley!  Bleh!  I honestly have no idea why this trend is back, but I hope it goes away.  Soon.

Gwyneth Paltrow, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian

Celebs seem to LOVE this trend.  I guess money can't buy taste.  I know, I know....I'm being harsh & judgemental.  Hey....I said *I* hate houndstooth, I did NOT say *YOU* had to share my opinion.  ;)  That said.....how DO you feel about it?  Love, hate, don't care either way?


If I had a gun to my head, & HAD to wear the ugly pattern.....I'd totally go for Kourtney's look!  I have to give it to her.....she can make houndstooth {almost} look hot!  Or....I'd go for a simple accessory, such as a houndstooth clutch, or shoes.

Outfit:  Earrings/Necklace/Bag, Send the Trend. Shirt (only $13!)/Jeans, H&M.  Shoes, Reflection.

Hermes Birkin Bag Look for Less!

Ok, so as I've admitted before, I'm a celeb gossip junkie (don't judge me...lol).  If you are, too, then you will have REPEATEDLY seen the Birkin bag.  Celebs LOVE it.  I will admit, its cute, however, upon researching this bag.....I do NOT think it is $9,000 - $150,000 cute!  One bag even sold for $203,150 at auction!!!!  My eyes are STILL bugging out of my head over this.  Seriously....$150,000 for a HANDBAG?!?!  I do not care how rich I got....I would NEVER spend that much on a handbag.  Ever.  This said...can you even imagine using it for a GYM bag??  Several celebs do this!  They apparently have WAY too much money.  Geez.  Ok, I'll stop, but wow, talk about "sticker shock"!  ;)

Kim Kardashian's multiple looks with her black Birkin

Nicole Richie & Khloe Kardashian Odom with their black Birkins, going to the gym!

Soooo, if you can't afford the price of a house for this cute bag, here's a budget friendly version to get celebs look for A LOT less!  ;)  "Principle" from JustFab, just $49.95 (free shipping).

Eva Longoria with her blue Birkin

Kourtney Kardashian w/her orange Birkin, Kimora Lee Simmons with her brown Birkin

I have to admit, I would preferred to have seen Kimora w/Principle, as she is now working with JustFab, who puts out Principle.  Oh, well, I guess!  She can afford the real thing.  Principle comes in black, dark blue, grey, red (maroon), beige, & brown.  (I have pics of other celebs, (Victoria Beckham, for one) w/various color Birkins, however, I felt this post was long enough already.  If you want to see the celebs w/the other color bags, just go to my friend Google for an image search.  ;)


Oh.....just fyi....this HOUSE goes for $119,995.  Hmmmm.....handbag, or house.  Umm, yeah.  House.
