These Are No Ordinary Heels. Alexander McQueen's.

• Not Only The Armadillo Heels

Remember the Alexander McQueen Armadillo heels I blogged about last time? Here's the link to the post.

Yeah I've done further research and found some extra info about it.

Here are the celebrities that have worn the Armadillo heels, so far.

Lady Gaga in her Bad Romance video, especially the "I'm a free bitch baby" part.

Fashion icon Daphne Guinness in nude Armadillo heels. Oh the dress is also from Alexander McQueen.

And our "Spaceship" songstress Kelis in nude Armadillo heels and a er... cat suit? And a spiky hairdo and er... hair/tail? Lol.

Well what I didn't realise was the other towering heels that Alexander McQueen designed beside the Armadillos, and they turn out as stunning as the Armadillos!

My favourite so far, the Titanic Ballerina. I think this should be categorized under boots. This heels might look er... a lil "mechanical" but I'd say you'd look stunning if you wear this for any occasion. What I like about his heels is that, the platform height is just nice for the design of the shoe. And of course, the outstanding towering mechanical heels. Later there'll be another picture which shows the front of this shoe having a metal toe plate.

Another one is the Necronomicon inspired heels. I really think the heels were awesome before this until I found out what Necronomicon is. It's something ... demonic. But I stil think it's stunning. =D

So, these are the stunning heels which I adore from Alexander McQueen, but sadly, they won't be released in stores. But IF you MUST have it, I think you can make a special order for it. Just make sure you're ready for the hefty price tag which would be somewhere around USD3,900 up tilll USD10,000!

Oh Oh here's a video from the Fashion Relief for Haiti of Naomi Campbell (Titanic Ballerina), Annabelle Neilson (Necronomicon) and Kate Moss (Titanic Ballerina) all in Alexander McQueen's dress too.

So awesome right? Loved the way Naomi stopped and turn and strut her stuff down the runway. Pity Annabelle, the shoe size were bigger than her feet. I LOVE KATE MOSS! Everything she did on the runway *hearts*

But if you think that USD3,900 is just a lil too much for you and you really want a piece of Alexander McQueen, I guess the Titanic Ballerina pump is the one for you!

This would be the only heel from the Spring/Summer 2010 runway that would be released and it costs at a lower USD1,985. I'm not sure in what colours they come in, all I know is nudish pink and black.

Goodnight.

Finally! Beyonce has a...

• Birkin!!!
  

A Birkin!!! Finally! She is one of the celebrities that doesn't have a Hermes Birkin bag. She once said that spending US$8000 on a bag is crazy, that's why she doesn't own a Birkin.

So how about this? She owns this bag. It's a Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork Bag. The top one is US$45,000 and the bottom one is US$38,000. Beyonce has the one at the bottom. What is US$8000 compared to US$38000?

But the thing is, it wasn't Beyonce that bought it, it was Jay-Z that bought it for her. And not only 1 did he buy, he bought several Birkins and the bill totals up at US$350,000. Wow. A crocodile skin one amongst the many perhaps?

Some Celeb Style :)

• Expensive Style~

Ok I have a couple of things to blog, and so I'll do with this today.

Kim Kardashian, famous for carrying her Birkin almost everyday, and it never gets boring! Tyra Banks once said on an America's Next Top Model episode, "Never repeat a statement outfit.", but I believe this isn't a statement outfit and can be repeated! =D

A turtle neck t-shirt (can be replaced with round-neck t-shirt), a blazer (can be replaced with a jacket) and tight-fit pants with a pair of (I believe) a Christian Louboutin heels. Oh I love her necklace too.

Going somewhere Paris? Here's Paris (heading off to Paris?) with a blue leather biker jacket, blue low-cut top, skinny jeans and a pair of black boots. It never goes out of style! Oh and not to forget a HUGE Louis Vuitton Multicolore suitcase being carried into a Barbie's Bentley Continental GT. I can't see what's on her neck, but I know I saw a huge ring there!

So what's your favourite style? For me, one of my signature look is a blazer or a jacket with a t-shirt and fitting jeans. Oh, and a pair of lace-up shoes makes my day. =D

Jane Birkin's Birkin Bag Sold for GBP100,100

• All to Japan
  

That's right! Almost 2 weeks ago, when I first saw it the bid started off at around GBP1,000, then more higher bids were placed until around GBP10,000 the day before the bid closed. And then on the closing day, it rose so rapidly up till GBP25,000, and when I refreshed it again, it was GBP100,100 !!! That's almost US$170,000!!! This Birkin bag is definitely THE Birkin as it was the first Birkin and owned by Jane Birkin since 1984.

For those who think GBP100,100 is stupidly high for a bag, all the money will go to the Red Cross foundation to help the victims of the earthquake and tsunami that happened in Japan. So, it ain't stupid.

And speaking of Birkins...

Ashley Tisdale finally got her first (I think) Birkin 35! In Mykonos Blue. And I was quite surprised, even though she's a celebrity but she waited 2 years for it!

Her tweet :

After two years of waiting the New York Hermes store came through!! Aaahhh!!!!! http://t.co/yKu5k34

Ah, good for her then.

Simple yet chic. All she needs is a blazer, a plain t-shirt of any colour, and a pair of heels and a Birkin that matches her t-shirt. She'll look fabulous!

Fast & Furious Actresses with Hermes

• They Know How to Rock Those Bags Too Eh?

So yeah, I was browsing through the websites I read daily, and I was happy to see that our favourite Fast and Furious idols know rock out in Hermes too!

Here's Jordana Brewster a.k.a Mia Toretto with her Hermes Noir Garden Party. I'm liking the scarf and the shoes too! One thing, how do they stand the heat of wearing a scarf during a sunny day? Probably the western countries are cold and windy during the daytime because in Malaysia if we wear a scarf out during a sunny day you know what'll happen!

This really surprised me. Michelle Rodriguez with a Gris 30cm Crocodile skin Birkin? Well okay, maybe she's into luxury brands and stuff but I didn't think of her as a person who would spend THAT kind of money on a bag. Until now. Well for now, just watch out for Fast and Furious 6. Those who watched it till after the credits would know what's comin' up!

Last but not least...

Ok she's not from Fast and Furious but I myself am quite surprised to see her with a Kelly bag. A Kiwi 32cm Kelly Retourné with palladium hardware. I just learned one thing from her. If your hair matches your bag, it goes well with whatever you choose to wear in any colour. And not only that...

I'm also surprised to see her in really high heels. It's so not the Avril Lavigne I use to think of! Well I gotta admit she's lookin' great too...that's because she hasn't got any children yet. Lol.
