KIMSHU + SHOES.

HI, READERS. 

So today's blog is going to be a lot more fashion-ish than food-ish for once.
On friday night it was my friend, Alison's 20th birthday party. We went to Sorry Grandma's.


This is what I wore that night, the dress is from Alice in the Eve but I removed the sleeves. I paired it with something that I am VERY excited to tell you about.


This leather collar was actually made by a friend of mine. She's a budding shoe/leather accessories designer and EXTREMELY talented. The collar is handmade with real Italian sheep leather and is GORGEOUS.

Her label is called KIM SHU, I strongly suggest you check her facebook page out. You can even see the whole creation process of my collar in an album on the page.

Speaking of shoes, today was by far the luckiest day I've ever had shopping wise. What started out as just "window shopping" ended up in 2 new pairs of shoes at RIDICULOUS prices.


These are my new Jeffrey Campbell Two Timers, they were $35 and my size! I could not believe it.


These velvet wedges were reduced down from $110 to 30 fucking dollars. The shoes are apparently designed by Tony Bianco, so I'm pretty happy knowing they're good quality and even more happy with the sweet sweet price. 

**********************************************************

So yeah, I got unbelievably lucky today. I'm gonna go do a happy dance now.


And here's some sushi, cos it's not a Carrie blogpost unless there's food in there somewhere!

Thanks for reading, It's getting cold in Melbourne now so stay warm and don't catch a cold.
