Well mine can. While killing some time in T.J. Maxx this weekend, I stumbled upon the Fuzzy Wuzzy Slipper Genie; looking lonely and misplaced hanging amongst some houseware utensils. This suckers help you clean the floor while you basically coast from room to room – no Swiffer, no hunched back, no hands and knees scrubbing necessary. They do warn  against running or trying to do a glide across the floor in them, however I think they are way too cushy to cause you to truly hyrdoplane or go flying down the hall (bummer!).

Malene Birger

Highly acclaimed Malene Birger is a successful designer in Scandinavia, proved by the vast crowd who gathered for her SS 2011 collection located in the remote shipping warehouse outside of Copenhagen. Danish celebrities lined the front row for the show, which had an overall aesthetic of urban safari comprised of warm earth tones and soft pastels, shapely trench coats, suits, and maxi dresses. Cinched waists underscore a strong female silhouette this season, much to the pleasure of us bestowed with hourglass curves. Still, topped off with a scarf wrapped beneath a bowler hat, the feminine shapes are given a suitable contrast, lacing estrogen and testosterone together to produce an alluring balance.

Rutzou

Radiating tribal romance infused with touches of elegant Egyptian, Rutzou presented her soft feminine collection at Copenhagen’s city hall to a feast of VIP guests. Revamped jodhpurs are made sophisticated with a sheer silk vest, followed by fluid jumpsuits and playful frippery. The soft yet edgy looks are juxtaposed with overlaying corsets and thick waist-belts on silk pastel dresses, pairing comfort with sophistication. The slouched silhouette reminiscent of the early mid-20^th century are updated with long-ended gold chokers and yellow, black and white staned garments and light shades of purple and tan on floor-length gowns. According this collection, the key to spring is comfort, elegance with accents inspired by mother earth.

Munthe plus Simonsen

Optimistically set on the charming cobblestone street, Grønnegade, French-braided models smiled as they paraded down the interim grass strip in the rain. Playful, light, and fun best describes the collection, alluding to an tribal-indian inspiration with feather earrings and floral brocades. Thanks to a faithful audience and stoic bundle of models, the show was a success in spite of the dreary Danish weather.

There’s nothing like starting the weekend off in a leisurely manner; to me, that means making espresso with Lavazza coffee I brought home with me from Italy…speaking of — I haven’s shared with FPD readers my favorite Italian buys and finds from my trip in July! I went to Italy for a friend’s wedding on a beautiful 13th century villa outside of Verona, and of course picked up some great finds along the way (from Florence, Venice, Verona, and Elba!). Here’s some pics of what I brought home:

• Jelly flats with ties in the back from La Rinascente department store in Florence, about $30
• Cute fedora-style straw hat, market in Venice, about $15
• wraparound grey leather belt, San Lorenzo Market in Florence, about $12

• I know you can get Dove products in the USA, but the formulas and scents are different in Italy – and I like them much much better! I always stock up on the Dove ‘Fresh’ scent ‘deo spray’ deodorants. About $5
• I also discovered this amazing olive mill that made beauty products outside of Verona – I got the best selling hand soap, lip balm, and olive oil face mask (not pictured), all made from olive oil at the Salvagno Frantoio, about $3-$6

• Of course I wasn’t going to leave Italy without buying some clothes! The middle dress (and pictured right) is one of my favorite Italian brands, Stefanel, and I managed to get this beautiful knit dress on sale for about $60
• The other two dresses were extremely affordable, from Pimkie, which I gathered is kind of like the Forever 21 of Europe, but the quality was amazing for the price point (grey zipper dress, about $32, striped dress, about $26)

• No trip to Italy would be complete without a totally cheesy tourist t-shirt, food, and coffee! I thought this ‘Venezia’ t-shirt with cute kittens and a ball of string didn’t make any sense, so I loved it instantly, and I also brought back as much pasta as would fit in my bag — here I have “foglie di carfiofi’ artichoke and olive oil semolina pasta (delish!) and some Lavazza, my favorite!!

What’s your favorite vacation souvenir? Do share!

I waited, and waited, and waited for my birthday, so that I could rationalize buying these amazing United Nude Lo-Res Pumps!  Available in four colors, black, I thought was the best color to get the most ‘bang for the buck’, although I felt the magenta ones calling me as well! Rem D Koolhaas designed these with s semi-automatic design method, in which an object is digitally scanned into a 3D computer model and then recreated into various resolutions. Sounds cool right? They are! I’ve never seen such a pop out texture all over on a shoe before, and to add to the cool factor, the strap on the shoe can be removed, so that all you have is the all over 3D design. If you haven’t heard of United Nude before, the brand recently opened its first U.S. store on Bond Street in NYC, and can also be found online, or locate a store near you!
