Manolo’s Friday Miscellany

Friday, February 1st, 2008

Manolo says, here are the few links which may perhaps amuse…

And just in case people in the Third World don’t hate the West enough.

Francesca is fascinated to know that one can have one’s boots professionally stretched.

It was only a matter of time before men’s shoes gained a similar status.

Manolo says, here is the Manolo’s latest column for the Express of the Washington Post.


Dear Manolo,

I’m a new stay-at-home mom living in the suburbs and I need a good shoe to go with my new lifestyle. In the summer, there are lots of chic flats and sandals, but here in the middle of winter I’m at a loss. Please help.

Manolo says, it is true, before the birth of the first child, you were the footloose and free fancy young person with the time and energy to do as you pleased. Now, after the arrival of your joyful bundle, your movements are restricted, you have not had the full night’s sleep in months, and all of your cashmere sweaters have spots of baby vomit on the shoulders.

Still, you are committed to dressing in the old way, if only so you can wash your habitual sweat suit and feel like the human, and not the dairy animal, once again.

But, as we know, the suburban mothers have their uniform, as surely as the downtown girls do. Thus the trick is to be casual, and yet also more stylish than the other “ladies who are lunch (for someone small)”.

Look here is the Cove from Ugg, the fun boot that stands out from the crowd.
