Square shades from Slow and Steady Wins the Race
Square-toed Balenciaga shoes
Closing credits to awesome ’80s show Square Pegs
“Hip to Be Square,” by Huey Lewis and the News, in American Psycho (bloody!)
Rielle Hunter, inspiration for American Psycho‘s Alison Poole character
Step Right Up says
Love the shoes and loved Square Pegs as a kid.
Is it wrong of me to think that Huey has a good voice? But curses, why do I sing along to his ridiculous song lyrics?!

I just had the hardest time explaining to my boyfriend why I was laughing. 🙂
La Belette Rouge says
Square pegs is my favorite SJP venue. And, the shoes look like some kind of punishment for feet.
Savvy Mode SG says

Danz says
Those shades are awesome! The shoes look cool too but they look like they would be uncomfortable around the toe area. I don’t know, I’ve never worn square toed shoes :S
Haha, and I love ‘Hip to be a square’!
Susie Bubble says
I’m lusting after those Balenciagas….

I like the shoes. Have you seen this? http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=true&catalogId=19551&storeId=12556&categoryId=74435&parent_category_rn=74433&productId=728205&langId=-1
I think you'd appreciate it. Especially the back view.
WendyB says
“Above the butt” bow! Thanks, KD.
Leonesse says
See how close I pay attention. I was like “Hey, isn’t that Christian Bale? I didn’t know he was in a Huey Lewis video.” DUH.
Miss Janey says
Christian Bale was so creepily great in the movie. And his hair was AWESOME!
Renaissance Woman says
I love the shoes…I want to wear those this weekend!
Emily says
i think my cheeks are far too chubby to wear square glasses, but the balenciagas are perfection!
K.Line says
Um, hello, I loved that show!
CoutureCarrie says
Very cool themed post. That remake of American Psycho was so awesome!
And remember Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction saying: “Don’t be such a ….” (and then there’s the outline of the square on the screen?) Love that scene!!!
xoxox,

melmo says

i love the sunglasses and the shoes!
krissy says
ooooh, i LOVED square pegs as a kid! i don’t think it stayed on the air for very long though, did it?
i’m not-so-secretly hoping that square-toed shoes come back in style asap. maybe then i’ll be able to find some new square-toed boots to replace my favourite pair that doesn’t have much life left.
we wear things says
HA great post.. i don’t think i could rock those sunglasses though.

I like the way you think!
Deja Pseu says
Ah, Square Pegs…loved that show. And I don’t thing square toed shoes ever really go out of style; they sort of defy trends altogether.
Moira says
lol — nicely done!
