That Lesley needs to learn to choose her words carefully especially when she is THE right hand of Mr. Blahnik himself and if anything, she should be happy that Manolo the Shoe Blogger loves shoes so much and he choose to showcase Mr. Blahnik wonderful shoes in this blog, it is like getting a free advertisement for Mr. Blahnik, not that Mr. Blahnik needs to do additional shoe campaign, the girls from Sex and The City did a fine job so therefore, the money saved, in some minute way, is helping pay for the salary of that Lesley.

Mr. Blahnik should be flattered that someone loves his shoes so much enough to blog about it.

To Manolo the Shoe Blog, we know you are not Manolo Blahnik, but we love you anyway.

The idea of fun, it is foreign to the reporter and to the Lesley. How sad, says Moi.

She’s an idiot. Being an impostor is quite a bit different from having a pseudonym.

And if she had done any research, she would know that the phrase is “funky little fashion troll.”

Bet she wears flip-flops.

I could be wrong, but the way I’m reading the story, it doesn’t sound like *Lesley* is the one sniping at The Manolo. It sounds like the author of the story is the one making the bitchy remarks… The way I’m reading it, all Lesley said is that The Manolo isn’t Mr. Blahnik; then the author clarified the distinction, adding her own personal (small-minded) spin. I have a hunch that Mr. Blahnik wouldn’t employ, as his PR spokeswoman and right hand person, someone who’d use the words “some guy … who is obsessed with shoes” and “bitchy sartorial bombs” in a press release. Judging by his shoes, Mr. Blahnik has - and demands - a bit more class than that.

And I agree with whoever pointed out that for someone claiming to be a journalist, the author might want to polish up her reading skills, because it’s only on EVERY SINGLE PAGE that The Manolo isn’t Manolo Blahnik. Sheesh.

You are so too “worthy to shine the most super fantastic shoes of the Manolo Blahnik.”

I was once in something of a debate with my lady friend about this very same thing quite a while ago, and it turned out she was 100% right. (We emailed THE Manolo for mediation.) Incidentally, she did buy me a book entitled “Manolo Blahnik Drawings” during my confusion phase, which is actually pretty interesting.

I have seen the Manolo praise the Manolo B. shoe and point the way to the purchase the shoe. The Leslie B. apparently does not understand to not bark and bite at the hand that feeds her masters business.
