You knew this, right? Sarah Jessica Parker's brand new shoe line launches exclusively at Nordstrom today, finally giving all of us lowly non-New Yorkers a chance to score Carrie's sick shoe closet. The Sex and the City star is well-known, both on-screen and off, for her insanely gorge footwear that runs the gamut from classic to impractically perfect.

Available at Nordstrom and nordstrom.com, from Feb. 28 to March 2, the collection includes perfect T-strap pumps, pastel peep-toes, beach-ready espadrilles and even a few handbags. My personal favs? The Carrie T-Strap Pump, the Pola Pointy-Toe Pump, the Bobbie Sandal and the Wallace Sandal. 

And what about the starlet herself? According to SJP in an interview with New York Post, “I covet all of them in some way because they allow you to feel differently, or make something look different in your closet, or stand differently than you did yesterday, or get someplace faster,” she says. “I think that’s the beauty of this particular accessory.”

Priced between $195-$495, it's not a decision to be taken lightly. And yet, as they say, far cheaper than therapy?

Happy last day of February! (woot, woot!)

The Clash and Canada's Cyber Monday

I've always been a big fan of unlikely pairings:  cheese with honey, melon with prosciutto, Demi and Ashton, to name a few;  so it comes as no surprise that I love a good colour clash.  This season, the way to wear red is with a shocking dose of pink.  Once reserved strictly for Valentines Day, bold red and pink look positively right, right now.  RLR Style Tip:  Nervous about making such a loud colour statement?  Test out the pairing in small doses - say a pair of red pants and a tan sweater with a bright pink clutch or a red sweater with a bold pink scarf.  Tans, camels and golds are the perfect neutral to set everything off.  Be brave and you'll reap the style rewards. xo

PS - Don't forget that today is Cyber Monday.  If you haven't already finished your Christmas shopping, today's the day to get it done.  I surfed around and found some fantastic deals at Esprit, The Bay (surprisingly great sales on Ralph Lauren Childrenswear), amazon.ca, Chapters, The Body Shop, Sears, Toys 'R Us, Forever 21, Roots and J.Crew.  Let me know if you've found any others.  After all, it's always more fun to share scores with friends, no?
