Welcome to Dialogue on Design. I'm Rima Suqi. (There's only one of me, so yes, "Best Bets" Rima Suqi.) I love to shop...I love to travel...I love design and architecture. And, I've started this blog because I love sharing my finds and experiences...my comments and observations...with others who share these same passions. I plan to pontificate on anything having to remotely do with design...from packaging to interiors to graphics and new products (cars, pens, gems, tubs...you name it.). And, I'm eager to hear what you have to say, as well. It is, after all, a dialogue on design...

Bootie Call

picture-2.pngIf you happened to pop by Session #2 of Dialogue on Design at Davis & Warshow SoHo with Laura Kirar (which, I must say, was really fun — she is a super talented designer of interiors as well as products for Kohler, Baker, Kallista, and others), you might have noticed her most excellent shoes. Wedge booties, to be exact, which she had paired with black tights and a vintage red dress. I found the boots a bit of a distraction during our interview because they happen to be exactly what I’ve been looking for.

So I got the scoop - they’re by Bally (one of my favorites) and they’re around $575. Not super cheap, but not so awful considering our dollar is at an all-time low. Here’s a picture of them, for your shopping reference.

And, if you didn’t attend last week’s DOD event, I’m wondering if there’s anyone else who would challenge Laura’s comment about not being able to enjoy a glass of wine in the shower? I do it all the time. A little ingenuity…a bench…a windowsill…and maybe an improvised lid to cover the glass? Thoughts or comments welcome.
