5 years with Dries Van Noten

On Sunday, George and I celebrated our 5th anniversary. I took this occasion to wear my new Dries.

What I love most about Dries shoes is the Talon Heel.

I mean normally I would have worn the Stella's with this dress but I just had to find some way to incorporate them in this outfit. I actually was reluctant to post these pics. I don't think they turned too great but it seems a lot of you couldn't wait to see the new shoes and also there were a couple of you who did not read my posts well and though that the Givenchy's were the Dries. Very bad readers!... and then you wonder why I get annoyed by " fake" comments!


'I'm also wearing a Go International Target dress and vintage belt with clutch ( not bought together)


We went to Kobe which normally you wouldn't think it would be a great place for an anniversary since it has those teppanyaki tables that you share with fellow strangers. I was reluctant at first about the idea but glad i tried it. It was one of the most entertaining anniversaries ever. The show the cooks put on for you is just amazing. We were definitely not the only couple celebrating an anniversary.Our fellow table neighbors were also a young fun couple celebrating their third anniversary. We hit it off so well with them. I guess that's the whole point of the shared tables. Meet new people and venture out of your comfort zone. Overall a great new experience that I definitely will remember!

P.S. The lovely Krimly was sweet enough to add Faboulista to her top 10 blogs feature post. Check out My Cherry Gum to see it, along with the other amazing blogs!

That clutch is the perfect color to go with those shoes! Seriously, I couldn't have done better if I tried.

Seeing these amazing shoes on you make me ache to go looking for a good outlet mall near me, so I too can get amazing deals on amazing shoes.

I've gone to a restaurant similar to the one you're describing, only I went with my whole family and we took up a whole table. I stupidly put my hand on the griddle/grill and burned myself >_<

Congratulations you, gorgeous dear! Me and hubby will soon be rocking our 2nd anniversary... Lots of good memories, huh.

I love the dress. The hue and the ruffles just really please my fashion taste. The way you accessorized it with the belt, and bien sûr those killer shoes, is just pure talent. This you have!

Thank you for your kind words. This means so much to me... especially at this time! I haven't known you for long, but I am eager to find out more about you, your talents and just the sweet person you seem to be. Plus you are Canadian, and hubby and I might be thinking about a move over there...

Hugs from Paris!
