how lola (grandma) chic has become a huge thing for summer? Everywhere I go, bus, train, Manhattan (!), women of all ages, sizes and colors are wearing these Chinese lola slippers in all sizes and colors as the most vouge, hip accesssory they've come accross for the season. Well slap me silly because when I see these on their feet, I envision some old lady with long gray hair (wearing a brightly printed duster from Divisoria or Baclaran), either shuffling around a dark, mosquito infested ancient family house decorated with ming vases and intricately carved mahogany chairs, or shooing away flies from the food at a carinderia (cheap eatery) joint. Gives me the shivers.
