I was looking through my closet a few weeks ago and came across a fugly pair of shoes I found in the depths of my NYC mini “closet” a.k.a tiny hole in the wall. I grabbed these things and started wondering where I had gotten them, I then took a look inside and realized these were the Yves Saint Laurent vintage shoes one of my old bosses had given me ages ago, OMGEEEE! The shoes were untied and the flaps were splattered all over the place, I gathered the belts and tied them around the flaps and tada…. This is what these babies are supposed to look like :)
As I kept digging through the unknown, I also found these cuties, caged and steel heeled vintage Charles Jourdan sandals, my ex-boss had also given me these in three colors, hot pink, cobalt blue and black! I’m not very familiar with the brand but they’re in great shape and made in France.
After more searching and digging, I found this forgotten gem, years ago I would always carry it with me, I remember when Gwen Stefani was still hot and came out with her handbag line, now it’s just sitting in my closet, chilling probably remembering the good ol’ days when it would be the center of attention, lol. Thanks for the bag G.
Can you guys spot the little lamb?
How about you lovelies, have you discovered something new hiding in your closet?
PS: I will be ebaying some of these pieces this week, if you are interested in any of these items please feel free to e-mail me :)
those ysl’s are freaking gorgeous! i love the orange lining and the way you tied the belts around them = perfection!!

Great finds doll! I have a pair of YSL booties that I bought from bluefly ages ago..only thing is one of the zippers broke and the shoe guy said he would have to replace the whole thing without the YSL zipper pull…should I replace both then, or just go with 2 different pulls….hmmm ;-)
Those YSLs are AMAZING! What size do you wear? I wish I found cool stuff like this in my closet…I just find dirt and dust bunnies, haha.

I’m a U.S. size 6 and 6.5 in boots, these YSL say 38 but they fit me perfectly, also all these shoes tend to be VERY narrow so they fit smaller than the actual size on them.
Much love,
Glendy
@ Chelsea Rae
Yeah my boss had a great shoe collection and basically starting handing me some of the stuff in her collection that didn’t fit, I had completely forgotten about this stuff, I’m so happy I found it again :D
Much love,
