Getting our act together

Ladies and who knows... maybe a few gents out there–

excuse us while we get our act together.

No seriously.

We at Tirvani need to make a few changes around here,

so sit tight, hold your horses, put your feet up,

and give us some time while we revamp around here.

It'll all be worth it, trust us!

Shoe Party.

Taking a cue from this popular and incredible video, it's high time for another post about shoes. 

After all, who doesn't love them some classic talk about good shoes?

   

When some look at shoes, there are those who automatically think of the shoes' functionality (I’m looking at you Birkinstocks which apparently are super comfortable but in terms of style... it's a sad thing for the fashion world. Power to you though if you can rock 'em!). For some, it’s how far away from the earth can the shoes make a person (Here's to those wonderful, amazing, and uber impractical 7-inch stilettos). For yet others, they relish the silly pleasure of putting ridiculous, unsightful, and by this I mean uuuuugly shoes on their feet (Crocs. I absolutely can’t stand Crocs). And of course there are those look for the bright bright red on the soles, the uber-thick platforms, or the gold medallion with two touching "T"s beautifully etched in (Louboutins, Jeffrey Campbells, Tory Burch). 
    
There are these people, and then there are people who look at shoes as an extension of a costume, not just an item to complete their outfit, to save their soles from nicks and scrapes, or just another way to flaunt their wealth. They see shoes as a medium in which to interpret everyday occurrences, like one does with painting, drawing, and sculpture. They have fun with, design, and create masterpieces, translating normal things that we see everyday into wonderful wearable footwear.
    
Thank God for social networking sites (Cheers to Facebook… speaking of, go “like” our facebook page!) or I would never have seen this absolute gem of a post from another website. Cheers to the vast Interweb!

   

Now take a deep breath, and prepare yourself for the beauty your eyes are about to take in.

Why Fly to Italia?

...When you can get an Italian style food baby right here? Granted, seeing loads of attractive Italian boys, and the fact that there is no drinking age in Italy, and I could see how their super adorable vespas could be quite an incentive... I lie. Italy would totally be better. But in the meantime, this restaurant shall do indeed. 

And the best part? All it takes it a drive on down to the Maggiano's nearest you. The occasion? A stupendous party where we all acted like we were 15 going on 25, dressed to impressed, and filled our bellies to bursting with beyond amazing food.

I should dearly love to meet the Maggiano for whom the restaurant is named, and congratulate him (or her, you never know) in person on the superb cuisine his or her restaurant serves. Really. It's divine. Their calamari? Gimme gimme gimme any place, anytime, anywhere. Their bruschetta? It's unbelievably good. And don't you dare even get me started on that pasta. I could literally eat that for the rest of my days. And ohmygoodness that desert. Pound cake, tiramisu, ice cream... all so yummy in my tummy. (I would be absolutely be telling a bald-faced lie...that is the saying right?... if I said I wasn't salivating right now... My only consolation? Having spaghetti for dinner.)

Now enough food talk, though I could honestly never get sick of talking about, looking at, and of course eating food. On to le pictures! 

Now, I don't think I'm alone when I say: you know that feeling you get when you see one of your friends wearing something absolutely adorable and fabulous and you just want it want it want it so badly you almost want to just rip it off of them and run away with it, cackling with glee? Yes, as embarrassing as it is to admit, I daresay I have those moments quite frequently. But these shoes... how can you not want them? And as such, I promptly beseeched her if I could take a picture of her fantastic pedicure and shoes to match.

Q4U (question for you, if you honestly didn't get that...): 1) Any favorite food places you like to pig out at? and 2) For my own self-esteem, am I the only who would love to borrow for an extended, never-ending period of time their friends' clothes?
