Btw, some readers were wondering about Halloween costumage; though CC never wants to see her in the White House, CC was Sarah Palin, complete with bouffant and flute. And yes, Tina Fey’s SNL Palin was quoted repeatedly: “I can see Russia from my house." "Are we not doing the talent portion?" "We’re not afraid to get maverick-y in here.” Excuse me, now CC has to go practice her fancy pageant walking...

I am not a fan of it UNLESS it is on a purse....in which case I love it ;)....Just purses :P...now fringe is something different...I kind of like it everywhere
Thank you for your comment. This blog seems to be full of wonderful pictures. :-) I especially like that Nicole Kidman photo above.
i want a pair of tassel diamond earrings.... have a savvy weekend, CC!
I love them on bags .
Love it on handbags and belts!
i can't say i have anything tassled!
and i think i agree w/ ashleigh. bags fabulous but clothing not really my thing! But it adds a nice ethnic touch.
your halloween sounded like a blast!!!
have a wonderful rest of your weekend.

I think not everything work with tassel, but there are some cute tassels...
Thanks for sharing and for the effort and work, beautiful (when do we see you again?)

Sorry I have not been able to keep up with your posts =( but tassels are sexy... everything about them are chic.
I'm not a big fan of tassel's ... they remind me of curtains :S... but it is an interesting idea.
i don't like it on shoes
but i think its cute on bags :)
I love those tassel earrings. I also enjoy tassels on bags. I don't think the world has enough of those.
what an elegant decorative element to add to a shoe! All I can say is, after viewing this post, tassels are fabulous! I luv the shoes!
I am only really a fan of tassels on bags and accessories.. not so much on clothing.. some great pics though.
We don't get a costume picture?
I think tassels can work for some people and I like them on bags and some home accents.
A girl was saying that her friend dressed up as Sarah Palin's daughter, complete with a "Go Mom" sign. I wish I could have seen that.
i would like a tassel necklace!
tassels work the best in bags and jewellwry, I think, but they do looks pretty cute in clothes too :>
I like this one a lot. All the pics are great except the dress that has a whole row of tassles on the bottom like a curtain. Maybe that's going a bit too far.
He llegado hasta tu blog aún no sé muy bien cómo, me encantan las borlas en bolsos.
Un beso
Tassels are too fun!!
I absolutly adore they way the looked on the Louis Vuitton Spring 2009 shoes.
Loboutin's black velvet purse looks simple, refined, and beautiful - and yes, you changed again the picture of your blog title!
i like fringe on purses & shoes. but then again i just saw this very flapper like black top with several layers of fringe that i really liked as well.
the sarah palin costume is great haha, tina fey's portrayal of her had me dying laughing
i was not a big fan of tassels - they reminded me too much of my grandma! but now i am becoming more accepting...
I love them in bags too
I love the Matthew Williamson's ¿wallet, purset? "carterita de mano" ;) very Bradshaw's, isn't it?
I have always had a thing for tassels...I'm going to have to try out a tassel for a belt -- lovely idea.
