Yala Toy, IT saleswoman
Got her: On Mott Street, where we have installed permanent spies outside our office…
Stalked her: Because her gladiator sandals made our day.
Shot her: Because she wore simple pieces with great detailing, and
balanced out the all-black with a good injection of crazy color. Also, note the little shorts!
She says: “The top is Jill Stuart, and these sandals are Prada, from like
five years ago. I love to mix and match my outfits.”
We say: The black chic of the family.
Editor’s Note: The Prada sandals will be back in another post today!

I’m sorry that you’re so affronted by my opinion Caroline. I wouldn’t look good in women’s shoes because I’m a man. If that’s beyond your understanding,…well that explains much. ha.

i like the shoes. (at first glance i though she was wearing a dress) i also love that top. but i think a silky top and a linen short may have been a mistake here. its hard when you are wearing black on black.
i wish you guys would leave Mott street! if i see someone while im out ill send it in Faran.

Sarah- Oh geez. We’ll just have to agree to disagree. But I’m not the only one that feels this way. Besides, I wouldn’t wear flats if if I was going to play dress up. It would definitely be heels.

Go easy on the Yala. She works in IT sales. She sells computer hardware and cables, folks. She’s an incredible exception to an industry filled with khakis and polo shirts. She’s bringing style and flair, not to mention great fabrics and inspired footwear, to a business segment whose populace — on a good day — looks like muesli.

Yes – I have to agree with you Mathew – that we have to disagree! Stay well and keep those colors co-ordinated – and I would love to see you play dress-up! : )

Sarah- I may be the Notorious F.A.G., but I do at least know my stylistic limits. ha. Also, just putting it out there, I think women on the whole rock, just some looks need….some help. :P

Thanks, I’m blushing now. I like the outfit and I love the shoes, but just not together. That’s all I was sayin’. They don’t have to match, she doesn’t need garanimals…*sighs*

It looks like she pasted green Chicklets onto those atrocious sand-kickers. And her top looks like it was rightly torn from the curtain rod in Marilyn Manson’s living room. Gum and goth, my dears, are never fashionable.
Behold. I have see Matthew in heels. It is an incredible sight.

Haha, Sir, I thought of Chicklets too! But the Marilyn Manson thing is harsh… as far as I know, he doesn’t trademark black.

Gum and Goth? you kidding? Thats too classy to be Goth – and gum? hmm….all I know is – those shoes are awesome – they rock! And she sure did balance them off well – very classy with a “rock-it” type flair – much like Kate Moss style. Good job Fashionista! keep your spies spotting the good stuff! Mott street did ya say?!

i LOVE the shoes with the all black. i think they could be just as cute with something brighter yet not necessarily matching, but they look great here.
and i jsut love gladiator sandals. true not everyone can wear hem as they can make one’s legs look shorter/stockier, but in LA they are a nice change from the usual havianas

True Sarah, but I could also go to Kmart to see people who can't match their shoes to their outfit. :P
