I realize that we have posted almost nothing in days- Samantha is in the middle of her big move to New Orleans, I’ve been engrossed in the annual madhouse that is the Edwardian Ball, and on top of that every time I do sit down to look at my computer I get stuck looking at the Spring/Summer menswear lines, and am filled with an apathy so thick it curdles. Imagine my surprise today, when upon slogging into the morass of my Google reader, I found this gem of a collection from Tim Labenda! The boots are actually from last year’s collection, but were too saucy to skip posting.
