Sometimes It's All About the Shoes


If you've been following me on twitter for some time, you know I've been completely obsessed with Miu Miu's glitter shoes from the FW11 collection from the moment (literally, because I was watching the livestream like the maniacal Miu Miu obsessive that I am), they hit the runway. So, I might have gone a little crazy when they finally hit the Net-a-Porter sale... Just a liiiittle crazy. Can you blame me? A little shout-out to my transatlantic blogging soul sister Briony who has enabled and encouraged me for... many, many months. In other news, pants. Yeah, that happened. I realize I have repeatedly said "pants are stupid" and I don't necessarily retract my previous statements. I wore this outfit when I went to have brunch at Five Leaves with my friends Luxirare and Julia Chesky, (Luxi recapped our brunch outing here).

Shoes: Miu Miu via Netaporter, Coat: Diane von Furstenberg via Zoe (also comes in blue! want!), Top: ASOS, Pants: ASOS Curve, Sunglasses: Miu Miu, Purse: Miu Miu*



*My best friend's husband (Hi Nathan! You're one of 5 straight men who read my blog, including my Dad) recently asked if I am paid by Miu Miu to constantly obsess and endorse their goods. The answer is no, but this is definitely a goal for me to work towards! 

Speaking of things that are glittery, be sure to check out the December issue of Plus Model Magazine, if you haven't had the chance to do so yet! I am so honored to have been featured on the cover with my bestie and blogger favorite GabiFresh, with an editorial featuring some of our favorite extra sparkly holiday wares (and me in curls)! Thank you to Maddy, Lucas, Tara, and Eliza for helping to make the shoot an amazing experience!

  2. Most of the time it is all about the shoes! I am completely obsessed with Miu Miu as well and am working up the guts to invest (convincing the husband is a bit of an issue)! You look gorgeous in the Plus Model Mag shoot!!! Everything about this is perfection!

    ReplyDelete

  5. Ok, you look ridiculously gorgeous on the cover of that mag. Those curls are so pretty on you! You both look stunning. And if you manage to in with Miu Miu - can I come too??? :D

  6. I've seen them on your instagram a few times, but I don't think I ever mentioned how much I LOVE them! Great buy, Nicolette. That's another dusty pink box (the best kind there is!) to add to your collection, right? :) Love the shoulder strap detail on that purse as well, so delicate.

  7. Not sometimes, always. It's always about the shoes, darling. Beautiful post. Stunningly heeled. x

  8. I love the shape of those. Hats off to suave shoe architecture!

  9. Miu Miu glitter shoes are just made for you, it was absolutely mandatory for you to own them! I really hope they make you as happy as they make me every time I wear them. Also, I love your "new" hair even more now than when you first got them (does it make any sense?) and, I NEVER thought I would say this,especially on your super feminine blog, but pants are fab!!! Smart, elegant, perfect for an outfit that is clearly all about the shoes! Maybe someday you'll give a chance to kitten heels too, who knows? :)

    ReplyDelete

  10. I think you should give pantaloons more credit my love because they look absolutely lovely on you
    and congrats on the mag dear

  11. The whole color (hair + makeup + glitter) and black combination is perfect !
    I have hair envy

  12. Love the whole outfit and every piece individually. You look amazing girl. Your hair does look great in these pics.  You go girl. Glitter was made for you. Love the top 2 pics. That sheer top is great too.

    ReplyDelete

  13. Pretty! I saw the heels on net-a-porter and wondered if you had bought them, they just seem so you.

  14. You look AMAZING! I want to just run my fingers through your hair, looks so soft and fluffy!

    ReplyDelete

  15. I can't even find the words to comment here, suffice to say I am SOOO thrilled to bits that you got them (and that my enabling paid off - after your enabling encouraged me to get mine). They are definitely the coolest shoes in my wardrobe, and I don't regret their stupid price tag for a second.

    Glitter obsessives unite!!

  18. woah, always SO WEIRD to see my internet life and IRL mix. anyway, pretty sure miuccia was all "oh, thinking about nicolette today" when these shows were designed because they are made for you. everything about them is YOU.

    ReplyDelete

  19. OMG x 100 to the following: BOTH pairs of miu miu amazingness, your cover shoot, and glitter in general. LOVE IT!

    ReplyDelete

  22. pants suck. I've been trying to move away from them in a big big way recently (especially because I ALSO am paranoid that the tighter varieties are detrimental to ladybits after prolonged periods of time), it's hard to sit in tight pants all day working a desk job. Obviously skirts and dresses are great, but I've also been a big big fan of vintage or vintage inspired SLACKS. Like high waist, ankle cut, loose on the hips grandma pants. Sort of like the AA version -

    I bought them in a size up so they'd be more comfortable while sitting 8+ hours a day, and so I can eat big meals in them :D

    ReplyDelete

  23. And what a pair! I don't blame you for obsessing over those gorgeous Miu Mius. And they go so well with that pretty blouse and sunnies.

    ReplyDelete

  24. I love Miu Miu too. I want one of their bags so bad!

    ReplyDelete

  70. They're very much worth the investment, in my opinion :)

    ReplyDelete

  72. I definitely know the AA pants you're talking about! They're very Diane Keaton (LOVE LOVE LOVE). Basically the only way I can get pants to NOT suck is to tailor the fuck out of them.

    ReplyDelete

  75. Hahahah!!! I knew this would speak to you. At least the bit about Nate :)
    Miuccia just RILLY RILLY gets me, you know? She's my spirit animal.

    the pants are over a year old, but they do similar cuts frequently.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  84. AMEN. vaguely reminiscent of Schiaparelli, no?

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  94. thank you so much!!! this makes me smile, big time.
    happy new year!

    ReplyDelete

  95. these shoes make me think of youuuuu! in my mind, our style is very similar, at least... the shape of the heel is gorgeous. reminds me of the early 20th century when fashion designers would collaborate with dada and surrealist artists.

    ReplyDelete

  96. Just happened across your blog & I love your style! Those shoes and sunglasses are absolutely fabulous. Definitely have to follow you on Bloglovin' now. :)

  100. On a personal note I’m just glad that these ‘fashion Dr Dre Beats headphones’ were designed with the influence of a woman. These aren’t some ridiculous pink over the top thing, but a concept design that took time to cultivate and bring to the masses and for that I thank you Monster Cable, Dr. Dre, and Lady Gaga. The combination of Lady Gaga's sense of fashion and music with the innovative sound and look of beats by dre cheap made it the right fit.
