I prefer cold to hot, but this winter isn’t going as planned in California. It’s so on an off that one day I’m up to my knees in boots and the next I’m searching for my flip flops. So, even though it still January, I’m already searching for transitionary shoes. I think these Julian Alps from Frye might do.

Karl Lagerfeld really is a genius. For Spring 2008 the Chanel designer seems to have dissected a Rubik’s cube and created a platform shoe with it. For those of you born after the late 80’s, the Rubik’s cube, introduced in 1974, was the #1 (frustrating) toy for many adults and kids. I’ll be honest, I hated the damn things. The only guys who could ever solve the “mechanical puzzles” were overly smart and determined like the guy in “The Pursuit of Happiness”.
Well it looks like Mr Lagerfeld can now be added to this list. The only thing is I’m not sure how I feel about it. I mean it’s fabulous both in a heterosexual female way and a drag queen way all at the same time. I don’t like the patent leather but love the ultra-colorful bottom. I don’t like the shape of the shoe but I love the color-popped mini Chanel logo. Tell me, what do you think?
