bottega veneta, you stole my heart.

Last week in Paris, I found myself walking briskly down Rue de Saint Honore in search of a pair of shoes for the evening's special event. Time was ticking and I barely noticed my surroundings, until I arrived at Bottega Veneta. I paused in front of the store, and gazed at the holiday window display as if I was in a trance. Pink and red wallets, clutches, and other small leather goods were mixed together with white plush recreations of the fashion house's iconic bags, all against a forest green backdrop. Now that's what I call perfection.


Although I was really tempted to go in and purchase the gorgeous red satin knot clutch (lower left corner), I stayed focused and, in the end, managed to find the perfect pair of black suede platform stilettos. Given the hefty price tag, I plan on wearing them forever and ever...
