Shoe store reviews

  • David's shoe store - Toronto
    A true shoe conoisseur never misses a chance to walk through David's on Bloor Street. Highlight: Their seasonal sales are a great time to stock up on fabulous buys. I scored a fabulous pair of Yves St. Laurent boots at one of their sales at half off the original $1000 ticket price. Drawback: You can sometimes find the same shoes elsehwere for a better price. That being said, David's service and insight is unparelled.

Thank you Mr. Blackwell, But I think we have heard enough

Blackwell_should_retire_1 from you.  How long has it been since you cut a dress?  Are you the icon at the head of hundred million dollar industries?

Yet every year you come out with some "list" of who you consider the best and worst dressers.

1. BRITNEY SPEARS: "When it comes to couture chaos, this tacky terror should take a bow – looks like an over-the-hill Lolita. From the princess of pop to the ultimate fashion flop."
2. MARY-KATE OLSEN: "In bag lady rags that look depressingly decayed – forget the accessories and buy some Raid."
3. JESSICA SIMPSON: "It's time to sack the stylist and divorce the designer… she resembles a cut-rate Rapunzel slingin' hash in a Vegas diner."
4. EVA LONGORIA: "Gorgeous face, garish taste… what a waste."
5. MARIAH CAREY: "The world applauds your musical emancipation… but please – leave that body to our imagination."
6. PARIS HILTON: "The Burger Queen Sensation may be very rich – but she looks like yesterday's cheesecake… with a side of kitsch."
7. ANNA NICOLE SMITH: "Queen Kong in cheap lingerie."
8. SHAKIRA: "Coiffure by Medusa… clothes by the Marquis De Sade."
9. LINDSAY LOHAN: "The Teen Scream defines Fashion Fright – looks like she's aged 30 years overnight."
10. RENEE ZELLWEGER: "Runs the gamut from Kewpi Doll Dreck to Red Carpet Wreck… she looks like a painted pumpkin on a pogo stick."

While Shoelover has been known to sling some mud once in a while (ya, I busted on MC a few days ago), it should be pointed out that each of theses ladies, with maybe the exception of A.N.S., probably out-earns Mr. Blackwell many times over.  If Mr Blackwell thinks he still has what it takes, maybe he should offer his services to this Madonna_1 motley crew of what he considers fashion disasters. 

Hell, if you see Madonna, tell her that the 70s called and they want their satin hot pants back.

Ya, a few of them dress like trash once in a while (OK, a lot of the time), but are celebrities just a reflection of the society in which they live?

xoxo,

Shoelover
