Gimme Shoes and Blog Notes

December 5th, 2008

I’ve really been on an accessories kick for some time now, haven’t I? Well, anyways I’m a firm believer in freshening up a wardrobe with accessories so here is another footwear post!

San Francisco shoe shop, Gimme Shoes specializes in footwear from the road less travelled (Yes, insert groans) They carry small, but nicely edited collections from Rachel Comey, Dries Van Noten, Coclico, Elsa, Jil Sander, and Sigerson Morrison, to name a few.

Blog Notes: I’ve been enjoying doing the daily wear and illustration posts, and I hope it’s been adding a little more interest to the blog for you readers. I’m going to be starting a little series of sketches of must have winter (and even just wardrobe!) essentials over the next week, and I’d love it if some of you would respond in the comments with your own lists of items you find to be essential to your seasonal or daily attire. They don’t have to be illustrations! Lists or even photos will do.

I moderate comments to prevent spambots, but I promise to not be so slow to check them this time. I think some interaction with you guys would be fun!

Also, the blog will be undergoing some minor aesthetic changes to freshen things up a bit over the next few weeks. It’s been almost a year since launch and I’d like to do something a little different!
