Nicholas Kirkwood Lace Up Sandal

LADIES THESE GO HARD !!!!!! I’m a big fan of Nicholas Kirkwood shoes in general, but I especially love his bright colored, funky designs. This shoe is a favorite of none other than the fabulous Sarah Jessica Parker from Sex in the City 2, seen wearing them on several occasions (below pic). This shoe is teal and black suede with metallic leather piping and black leather trim. The platform and heel are black suede. This shoe features criss cross straps on the front and an oxford style lace-up by the ankle. It has a 4.75 inch heel and a .75 inch platform. $1,242 at LUISAVIAROMA.

Andy Warhol “Black & White” at Prism Los Angeles

I GOTTA GET A FEW OF THESE IN MY HOUSE. Prism Gallery Los Angeles continues with an impressive line-up of shows. End of last week the “Black & White” exhibition of Andy Warhol art opened. “Prism is pleased to present a selection of late paintings by Andy Warhol. In the mid-1980s, Warhol made a series of silkscreened black and white works with imagery taken from a cross-section of sources. The paintings are stark representations of advertisements, diagrams, maps, and illustrations in newspapers and magazines pulled from his scrapbook of ads from the 1950s. Warhol’s themes of consumer culture, death and religion are dramatically represented in these late works. The ghostly messages seem to fade and dissolve the text into near abstractions. Some 25 years later the immediacy and familiarity of the images still resonate within today’s advertisement and image driven culture.” PRISM LA 8746 W. Sunset Boulevard West Hollywood, CA 90069
