This shoot for Russian Vogue (October 2008) displays such a stark juxtoposition of opulence and destruction.

Lovely Les Chiffoniers
I saw a picture of Paris Hilton wearing the Les Chiffoniers sequinned leggings today. She looked like a transvestite but nevertheless it reminded me of how much I want some Les Chiffoniers leggings, especially the PVC zipped black ones. OM NOM NOM.

I <3 Felder Felder
Felder Felder's AW08 collection perfectly encapsulates all the elements of my desire for this season's fashion: black, punk, studs, brass, frills, chains, grunge.. In fact, these are the things I love EVERY season. I am no girly girl! I would happily dress like this for the rest of my life.
Balmain SS09
Bleached, acid-washed, ripped, weathered jeans and military jackets with strappy diatamte heels. If someone had said those words to me before seeing Balmain's SS09 collection, I probably would have thrown up all over them. But instead I am considering if/how I could pull off these jeans myself...they are so perfectly, beautifully destroyed.
Alexa
Alexa Chung has the Gucci boots I am in love with! And worst of all, I bet she didn't pay a penny for them. But I will conceed that they look very good on her. This motley crew are a little bit 'young London celebrity' for my liking, but they mostly are wearing very nice shoes. Valentine Follol-Cordier (far left) looks ezpecially good. I wish I had the legs for shorts/bare legs/massive shoes!

B.L.A.C.K.
Some recent shots from Glamcanyon...perfect examples of the best ways to wear black. I am in the market for a new leather jacket like the one in the second pic (my cheapo primark version is getting tatty. And it's pleather, which is quite disgusting) but I am finding it difficult to get a nice, affordable vintage one. From ebay anyway! I think i'm going to have to pay a visit to Lahhhndon.Source: Glamcanyon
Literal killer heels
I have a real shoe fetish right now. Don't get me wrong, I have always loved shoes. They are a better investment than clothes are your size never changes, and a good pair of shoes never really go out of fashion. This season's shoes are on the right side of offensive and I have become mesmerised by anything with a huge wedge or heel, zips, studs, spikes, pvc...whatever. I'll take them all.

Karla's Closet
This is Karla from Karla's Closet. She is one of my favourite bloggers specifically because she has the best, sexiest, most violent-looking shoes I have ever seen! Black, chunky, studded, wedge, leather, lace up...she has it all. And also lots of incredible blazers.

Lookbook
I know the Topshop lookbook is quite old now but I don't care, I just love the images, the clothes, the styling, the merchandising...I want it all! Here are my favourites. If anyone wants to buy me all these things I would be very grateful :)

Emma Cook for Topshop
This month's Elle had a page dedicated to Emma Cook, with quite a few items featured from her new Topshop line. The chunky black killer boots she has designed are incredible, they are so disgusting yet so...covetable. I am eagerly awaiting the lace-style version, although I am sure they will be a quick sell-out.

Babouska!
This is my first post and I am glad it is about something so beautiful and desirable...
I am currently OBSESSED with these Gucci Babouska booties. I first saw them on Heidi Montag's dirty feet at an awards show and ever since I can't stop thinking about them. At £565 they are totally unobtainable, so I think this is going to have to be a 'cheap boots + studs = DIY' job.
