Nicholas Kirkwood, “Shoes of Art”

img-nicolas-kirkwood_174852970332 At the age of 28 from Borough, London and a Shoe designer, Mr. Kirkwood is doing his thing. I have found his shoes to be truly a work of art. His intimate elegant lace shoes can make any girl feel special, yet sexy as one wants to be. His shoes are sold at Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Nordstrom, Barneys New York, and the list goes on.

Best of the Best, ESPY Awards

By now one should know from my previous blogs that I love any red carpet event. I am on the prowl like a dog in heat waiting to see who is standing tall above them all. According to the history of ESPN, their annual awards show recognizing the best in sports each year. ESPY stands for “Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly.” The first annual award show was held in 1993 and has continued honoring ever since. Wednesday July 17, 2013 Gabriel Union represented, in her Mar Bouwer black dress, Maria miller took second in her sheer peek-a-book Catherine Malandrino, and even though Selena Gomez looked stunning in her Dolce & Gabbana dress she was my third pick.

Now for my Top 3 Sexy shoes, taking the lead is Rocsi in her braided nude-gold strappy dress sandals,  Lake Bell in a pair of black dress sandals with jewel detailing around the ankle and last but not least, Colin Kaepernick, rocking Versace red spike sneakers.
