MALOOF'S HOOFS


If, like me, you are a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills tragic, then you already love this woman.

Even after Adrienne Maloof gave away a significant hoard of her prized footwear (featured on the show) the woman still has enough shoes to fill a large closet, estimating she has around four or five hundred pairs.

A New Mexico native, Maloof earned a full scholarship to the University of New Mexico as one of the country’s top tennis players and received her degree in political science.

Adrienne moved to Beverly Hills from New Mexico over fifteen years ago. She works with her four brothers and mother on a number of family businesses including the Sacramento Kings, The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Maloof Productions, Maloof Music and Maloof Money Cup. The family's 150-year-old business employs 5,000 people through its various properties. Apparently she initially had zero interest when Bravo came knocking for The Real Housewives until she realized the potential reach and the new found markets she could tap into.

One of her most recent business endeavors is Adrienne Maloof by Charles Jourdan, a capsule collection of footwear produced by the iconic brand Charles Jourdan, which showcases Adrienne’s design acumen. The line was launched in December 2011 and is available in major department stores and boutiques nationwide in the USA.

Love!

A DASH OF FETISH @ GUCCI





















Cinematic, equestrian and a dash of fetish. See the Gucci Fall Winter 2012 accessories collection through Frida Giannini's eyes (below).

Shoes with hints of fetish. Oh, I like!

FIVE FINGERS AT THE GLOBES



















The annual award ceremonies really do bring out the best and worst fashion don't they?

Something about having to glam-up for the world's media makes some nominees shoe crazy, and not necessarily in a good way.

No matter whether the gown dazzles you can usually make up some ground in the latest collection Manolos, Christian Louboutins or Jimmy Choo heels.

Loving Best Actress nominee Viola Davis's choice of Jimmy Choo Louisa platform sandals but cannot for the life of me work out what The Descendants star Shailene Woodley was thinking?

After the 69th annual Golden Globe awards ceremony, the actress ditched her Marchesa dress and Tabitha Simmons shoes for an entirely different ensemble to attend the In Style / Warner Bros. After Party.

A little more comfy - check, a flowing black gown - check, a pair of Vibram "Five Finger" shoes - what the?

Comfort over style is one thing but this is an epic fail!

Comments?
