    Get into the Academy

    16 year old model-turned-designer, Justine Crawford has created a gorg line of ‘not-so’ and ‘sort of’ pieces… in a VERY good way. After wearing pieces from top designers, she’s decided to jump in and put her own creativity into realities… being in a strict school she began designing rebellious items, this became her clothing line; Academy For Wayward Girls. I love, love, love these pieces, especially the shoes… not only are they way out of the box, but they are created with quality and couture in mind! xoxo Academy For Wayward Girls!

    Vivi Westwood for Melissa Shoes

    Every year, I have an obsession with finding the perfect white summer shoe: so why should 2009 be any different! Before going out for dinner and after dropping of my ‘The Status of Things’, I was strolling on Queen St W today and saw these!

    Pretty cute huh! Perfect for the April showers and rainy days ahead. They are called the Lady Dragon – PVC = no blisters! I first tried Melissa shoes in Lavish and Squalor but didn’t know how I felt about them. But after reading this…

    “Vivienne Westwood and Melissa have combined to take a modern twist on a classic piece of Westwood footwear – the Lady Dragon Shoe. This heeled Melissa shoe is made from beige PVC and features an adjustable ankle-strap. A large red heart lays on the toe.”
    – Made in collaboration with Vivienne Westwood, the eclectic British fashion designer known for popularizing punk fashion
    – Hypoallergenic plastic material easily molds to the foot, providing superior comfort while being 100% safe to your health

    Last year, I got these cute ones from Chinese Laundry… Love them, wore them so much they are goners..
    so I think these VVxMel are going to be my signature ‘white shoe’ for spring!

    About Melissa
    Based in Brazil, Melissa has a single brilliant concept: super-comfortable, easy to wear, and seriously stylish footwear crafted in natural rubber. You might know them from the original 1970’s jelly sandal – they were one of the originators of that all-time classic! This sustainable and recyclable material molds to your foot after a few days of wear and provides a nearly scandalous degree of comfort. It’s also totally waterproof! And if your shoes get dirty? Clean them with good ‘ol soap and water.
