Most Satisfying

That had to have been the most satisfying conclusion to a Project Runway season ever. I loved Christian from the start and was so so happy to see him win. His garments were amazing even with all the black. He really lucked out that Victoria Beckham was the guest judge because she loved loved loved him. I hope she does wear him sometime. What a coup that'd be for him.

I was sad to see that Jillian didn't come through. Her stuff was terrific separately but it was kind of all over the place. I'm sure she'll find success though; she is so talented. I especially love her coats.

I was never a big fan of Rami and when Tim visited him on the next-to-last episode the mustard color of some of his designs was so scary. I noticed that none of them made his final collection but I agreed with the judges that the colors he did choose were questionable. I didn't really like some of his dresses either. It's just not to my taste.

I'm kinda sad this season of PR is over. I guess I'll just have to hope that one of the contestants on Dancing with the Stars will strike my fancy. This season's crowd doesn't look too promising.

New Shoes

I finally got my butt in gear and bought some new shoes yesterday at DSW, just up the street from the office. I'm a big adidas fan but this time I wanted some slip-ons. I tried on over 8 pairs until I broke down and tried some with laces. I ended up buying two pairs, both Skechers.

I haven't worn this one yet. It's cute, huh?

I wore this pair home from work last night and I've worn them all day today. They're doing pretty good and are easy to put on (with the help of the long long long shoe horn I got at Walgreens!).
