Day 157 - Dog day afternoon

Seriously divine Lanvin espadrilles in pinky beige leather with grosgrain ties, pictured with BK at his studio in Chicago, looking rather like a demon dog.  BK is shortly to be bathed in Aesop's new 'Animal', an aromatic wash for the four-legged, while Kittie is again wearing the refreshing Osmanthe Yunnan by Hermes.

Day 156 - Tea for two

Super-sexy Sergios pictured at the Drake Hotel in Chicago in the middle of one of those fabulous Midwestern thunderstorms, photographed after an enjoyable afternoon tea. These eye-catching Sergio Rossi heels have zip(per)s at the back, which are not visible in the photo. They were worn with Chanel's 31 Rue Cambon.

Day 155 - Chicago

Aah, Chicago, Chicago, you're my kinda town!  Shown relaxing in comfort are these very special and luxe Manolo Blahnik black suede slingbacks with lovely scalloped cutout detail. They are worn with Hermes' Osmanthe Yunnan, a perfect citrusy offset to the city heat.

Day 153 - Chanel in the land of the Canucks

Aren't these divine?  Spectator-style beige and black Mary Janes in the classic Chanel style, with flared black heels. Note the black tips on the straps, a lovely touch. And although it's not possible to see in this shot, the gold buckles are stamped "Chanel". They are worn with Bel Respiro by - who else? -  Chanel.

Day 152 - Canuckmania

Vancouver is in a state of mania over the local ice hockey team the Canucks making the Stanley Cup.  These Prada slides are trying hard to get into the mood.  Yes, they have been shot before - twice - but they are great favourites, and travelling tends to limit the shoe wardrobe a little.    Grey and drizzling outside, so perfect with Frapin's fabulous 1270.  Go Canucks!
