“Cinderella’s glass slipper represents every woman’s dream shoe. The story, being a classic, inspired me to use my iconic pointed toe silhouette, which I embellished with an array of hand encrusted Swarovski crystals to create the ultimate fantasy shoe. I used transparent PVC to create a ‘glass’ effect and ivory suede for luxurious texture and dimension.”

Alexandre Birman:

“My vision of the glass slipper was inspired by the timeless and feminine beauty that I believe Cinderella and the Alexandre Birman brand both share. I reinterpreted our classic Johanna pump, this time giving it a fashionable and romantic twist with satin and Swarovski crystals. It’s a shoe I imagine a modern princess would wear.”

René Caovilla:

“‘Works of arts called shoes’ to grant wishes and raise emotions. Passion and never ending research don’t draw the line at fantasy and creativity. This is how dreams come true in our fairy tale.”

Have I finally discovered a new foundation to replace my beloved "complexion perfector," the Giorgio Armani Maestro Fusion Foundation?The Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Fluid Foundation was released late last year to rave reviews.

And the more I researched the Sensual Skin Fluid Foundation, the more I realized...

Into the Great Unknown

YOU. GUYS.

You’re probably aware of the fact that both the Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies were made by the same production company, Lucasfilm.

And you have to know that Han Solo and Indiana Jones were played by the same actor, Harrison Ford. (Right?)

So what if they could meet?!???

“Into the Great Unknown” is a 10-page non-canon comic story that was included in the comic book Star Wars Tales 19 in 2004. It serves more as a fanboy fantasy than a serious addition to either Star Wars or Indiana Jones worlds, but it truly is mind-boggling and leaves one almost wishing it were true.

(Almost. Without giving anything away, something big happens in the storyline with which most Star Wars fans have a big problem.)
