Check those 2 ardillon/thumbnail buckles, ha, ha... John Lobbs with an ardillon buckle on a PAM 114? Brilliant! But Freddy is much more into fashion than I am -- at least, the kind you guys can wear. Thanks for the shoutout, Babola. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Freddy is much more into fashion than I am -- at least, the kind you guys can wear. Thanks for the shoutout, Babola. It's actually 10D (solid caseback), on a strap that's sort of an experiment of mine. Took the standard brown rep strap and after putting it thru some "special" treatment methods, made it look like "John Lobbs" one LOL! ...so both the watch and the strap are the reps of their genuine counterparts...shoes and belt are gen, though cheers and thanks, babola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archibald Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Barker Blacks certainy don't qualify as reasonably priced, but God knows what they'd cost if they were branded by one of the hot Italian companies. The closeup shows why I love great watches and great shoes--and craftsmanship at its finest, made by people who give a sh** about their jobs. Hand painted dial and hand stitched shoes ...

Victoria Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Yes, yes, I know. My boyfriend thinks they're UGGLEE too. But I have to keep justifying the pricetag, since they were in fashion 4 years ago... P.S.: I'll take a Fiddy shot for you to compare. I'm a size 7 US.

What you really want, are a pair of EMU (brand) boots. Emily swears by them, and apparently, they're more popular in Australia than Uggs Also, they're made so the 'hard rubber' of the sole, rather than being totally flat, goes up at the back into the 'foam' later, so any unusual foot pressure won't wear into the foam so quickly [Edit to add] I forgot to say, but apparently, Paris Hilton once said she wouldn't be seen dead in Ugg boots Edited January 8, 2008 by TeeJay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There hasn't been a [censored]-over-[censored] trend set by the Olsen Twins that I haven't followed. Nice one, Vicky. BTW, the EMU v. UGG rivalry reminds me of the Husky v. Barbour jackets one. Well we know who won that one, don't we. EDIT: "I forgot to say, but apparently, Paris Hilton once said she wouldn't be seen dead in Ugg boots. " She would look like Saskquatch! I have small feet, she's got clodhoppers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, the good-old Olsen Twins (at least it's possible to tell them apart now ) Now, if I could only convince them to let me design them hugely visible tattoos, I'd be set I didn't realize that EMU were such a known brand. I have to admit, from what I've seen, they certainly appear the nicer product. Then again, those honey-tan shoes in my wrist shot do up with velcro and cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 ...prolly too much No! Really nice, Star. Love the belts you chap are showing. I went to match the Fiddy and the Uggs with a 115/75 OF Paci Tantalium strap. @Babola below: Tight jeans. Hobo Dior bag. Sexy gilet poncho & Uggs -- I look awesome!

V Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 I am not wearing formal clothes often so my good shoes are in Greece.. Most of the time i dress casual and those two are my favourite shoes.. Both Puma '96 Hours' designed by Neil Barrett and made 100% in Italy with Italian leather...
