Shoes!?! ... and other accessories

[mrs.dr.ron]

Thanks, great explanation as I too had no idea. I thought shellac was what you put on old timber furniture, when the term "French Polish" meant finishing timber furniture. Made from bits of beetles if I remember correctly.

Yes - I know what you mean - my father was a builder - so I grew up with those terms ! But here is french polished nails =





and no those are not my fingers - google photos !

If only our politicians showed this much passion for their jobs. This would be a great country once again.

Hey, that's a great slogan, we could use that, "make ostraya great again".

I feel so ignorant - I have no idea what shellac is, or Valentino Garavani

I'll do the Valentino Garavani bit
Harrods.com
Italian designer
Here he is with Liz Hurley


Makes exquisite shoes, the most popular right now is the Rockstar studded range of sandals, flats and pumps.

I don't think that's my Valentino

Ah - so "the" Valentino - I have of course heard of him, but not the surname. My education is going leaps and bounds

And to add that AFF flavour, this is a pic of Valentino's pugs on a private jet (actually true)

I now only buy my shoes from a shoemaker in Budapest who handcrafts each pair. I can never go back to off-the-rack now, except for RM Williams.

Is THAT a Valentino rug? His shoes designs are much more exciting from a multi millionaire designer.

I'll raise your 5 fingers with my 10 toes my shellac done yesterday at Terminal 21 Mall Bangkok !

 

[Pushka]

Meh. Shellac pink and shoes. Excuse the Raynauds (white) toe.


My feet are always purplish. Damn autoimmune stuff.

 

[Bindibuys]

LOL MrsDrRon, just to prove I do have 10 fingers (thank goodness the staff at ANZ know me well, and strange requests to take a photo of my hands is just a normal request from me) FYI toes to be done Xmas eve, before heading down to Deniliquin for the break.
