Since I am pretty much the living embodiment of the nutty Little Edie from Grey Gardens right now, I need some fabulous heels to compliment my infringing social awkwardness. Yes, I think these heeled brogues will do. I tried on a pair with a similar heel at Aldo last week, and it was a pleasant surprise to discover that they were actually rather comfortable and fun to walk in. Chunky heels are awesome, spindly heels can go die in a hole of Tom Ford. Or something like that.
Do you think little Edie would’ve been into the whole ‘Patrick Robinson=Head designer at Gap?’ I think so. When I saw this page in Teen Vogue, I gasped and immediately made a mental (and physical) note to buy thermal socks at the next possible opportunity.
Finally, this is kind of irrelevant but I love Elton John. Praise that little sequined man for being so darn amazing! I could listen to ‘Your Song’ for hours. And I really want this t-shirt (SO NOT Little Edie) but the Ebay seller might as well cut off my right arm than have me pay $50 for a t-shirt.
Okay, I am done ranting.

Maybe you are the blogs oldest imaginary blogger now that other one died...
Edith 'Big Edie' Bouvier Beale: Aren't you going to feed, uh, Whiskers, Edie? Come on, go feed Whiskers. No, don't eat it; give it to Whiskers, please!
The Aldo shoes are gorgeous! =) I need to hop down to my local Aldo store and see if they have those. I've been looking for similar shoes, although flat ones. But, I love a heel anyways! And I agree... spindly heels can go die in a hole. I'm not one for spindly heels. =/
The shoes are great. I am somewhat skeptical about the quality of Aldo shoes. Do you think anyone can save the Gap? It's terrible in Vancouver..just depressing.
Did you get the heels from Aldo? I found a nicely cheap pair of spectators from a thrift shop.
And I always suspected that I was a Martian trapped in a human's body :O
I like the heels and the ones in the teen Vogue picture are nice as well.
loving the brogues and the fact that you are "devouring Atwood novels" - she is my fave.
Awesome t-shirt, I agree, and what an excessive price tag.
I've had a fear of chunky heels for a while now. *goes off to try on some chunky heels*
I love the randomness of elton john at the end.
One of my favorite muppet show moments was when Elton John sang "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road."
Amazing.
youtube it!
Those Aldo brogues are fantastic. I think you need to buy them asap. And nodding to your previous post, those brown leather t-strap shoes are amazing!! I swear to goodness, you do know where to shop for thriftiness. I need some advice on that front.
you are my new favorite person. Those Aldo shoes will soon be my new school shoes. I love them. I'm sorry about being being in the house :/ hopefully it will get better soon
yes spindly heels should just die! haha or maybe I need balancing lessons. make your own elton john shirt with good ole iron on transfers :D
that shoe/ sock combo in teen vogue is verging on genius- do you know where those shoes are from?
