The Next Carnivale of the Couture
Manolo says, the next Carnivale of the Couture it will be about at the About Shoes, and the title, it is near and dear to the heart of the Manolo.
While it’s easy to get caught up in the latest trends and the newest offerings from the hottest designers, there are times when even the most devout fashionista will opt for function over fashion.So … it’s not a big night out, there’s nary a potential partner in sight, and there is no office dress code. Which shoes do you reach for when you’re only dressing to impress yourself?
For the Manolo of the informal lounging there is no comparison to the original Rod Lavers from the Adidas, but they must be in the leather and not the nylon mesh.
As for the jaunty man about the town shoes, the Manolo has recently purchased these pair of the Ballys, which he has been wearing frequently.
Simple, handsome, relaxed, they fit the criteria of what the Manolo considers shoes worthy of the wearing, even when no one is around.

Manolo,
You can find the Adidas Rod Lavers in leather at the Finish Line website here.

One congratulates the Manolo on being able to afford the $500 shoes. The girl with the not-so-rich husband can only admire the glorious fabulousness of the shoes which she will never be able to purchase for her beloved husband.
