2010 Calendar Guide for Luddites
Look, maybe you want to store your calendar in the Cloud so you can
sync it with your phone. I want to hang my calendar on the wall so I
can gaze at the neat little boxes and do some plotting with a fresh
pen. We’re different that way.

These Boots are Made for an Entirely Different Economy
These boots aren’t in my wardrobe budget, but I thought I’d collect them here so we can all admire their vitality. Your links to dreamy shoes are encouraged in the comments.

Sigerson Morrison 9550 Boots, $899 Betty Draper meets Deeta von Teese.

Pour La Victoire Kerry, $406 (On sale. Regularly $564) These make me want to dress like the Vogue version of a Grimm’s Fairy Tale heroine. Now all I need is a drindle made of crushed egg shells and hair that won’t fit through a standard doorway.

Kate Spade Sierra, $383 (On sale. Regularly $475.) Remember your first pair of patent leather Mary Janes? Like that, except you won’t have to sit through the sermon to take them out on the town.

Via Spiga Crispin, $425
Schoolmarm basics — they come packaged with a punitive yardstick.

Elizabeth and James Vegas Boots, $564 Your mom will hate these. Sometimes that’s still reason enough.

Revenge Fantasy Holiday Dresses
You know your ex will be there with the new girlfriend. The new girlfriend is disasterously smart, cute, and funny — all of which is making it impossible to hate her. But that doesn’t mean you can’t outdress her.

Camera Bag Roundup

I’m looking for a small camera bag, so I did a camera bag roundup for Intel’s Lifescoop site. The brand above was made with scrapbookers in mind, and it’s the closest thing I’ve seen to a camera bag that looks like a purse. Why aren’t there more of those? I feel like such a yutz when I dress up for dinner and then have to carry a nylon sack along.
Anyway, with a great deal of help from Twitter friends, I found some useful, attractive options, so go have a look.
