Although many people have not heard of Pedro Garcia Shoes, they have been around for nearly 85 years. This Spanish brand was founded in 1925 in Spain and since then 3 generations of Garcia’s have been devoted to footwear. In the years since they have appeared in magazines like Vogue, Elle and Harper’s Bazaar, and to this day they continue their high standards of shoe-making. 89 people take part in the process of making a shoe from concept to consumer. Today Pedro Garcia shoes are sold in over 1000 locations worldwide. In 2009 they were awarded to be the best Spanish company in Italy.

New for Spring / Summer 2010 is the Pedro Garcia Joel. It’s a tall sandal but those thicker heels should make for easier walking. Those black stones on the heels needless to say are asking for a night out on the town.

I did come across these other shoes that I  particularly like. But it’s almost unfair to write about it here. Apparently these  Ballet Flat shoes were sold at Neiman Marcus but I unfortunately after some digging they are nowhere to be found,  neither on Neiman’s website nor  on Pedro Garcia’s home page.  At $450 for a pair of ballet flats, maybe it’s a blessing in disguise that they weren’t available but still, it’s saddening to know that I can’t get them.  Pedro Garcia shoes are very stylish indeed.

I was pretty bummed that my Miu Miu Matelasse handbag was sold out.  I had my heart set on getting a new Miu Miu, maybe I shouldn’t have psyched my self up to get it so much.  But since I am THE avid online shopper, self-proclaimed of course. I can’t have that hold be back from getting a new bag right? Maybe I’m fickle. But I guess that’s all a part of this blog right. Indulging every urge to buy whatever I want. (^_^)

The Miu Miu Matelasse is a bag made from luxurious camel leather with a design that will set it apart from the crowd. The sophisticated leather pattern provides a nice complement with your outfit. While sometimes a bag covered with logos and branding may be a fashion statement, a sometimes prefer a bag like this with a nice design but without overdoing all the extra buckles and accessories. It will keep you looking stylish without going overboard.

Made in Italy,the gold tone hardware is tastefully done and personally I really like the braided top and handle. Miu Miu has been around since 1992 but that doesn’t mean it status isn’t as high as it should be. It comes from the fashion house Prada, and in fact it’s name is taken from Miuccia Prada’s nickname. This line differs because it targets a younger consumer and is more competitively priced than it’ s parent line. A Miu Miu Nappa Matelasse Bag will definitely be an indulgence to come soon.

Edit: Dang. The place I usually check out has the Matelasse  all sold out! (;_;) Well you might want to check out the prices on some other nice Miu Miu Handbags.
