I know spring is around the corner when two things happen: 1. My allergies act up (as I am sitting here nursing a sinus infection) and 2. I start to hear the birds chirping very early in the morning. Aside from all that, I truly love the spring season. It’s one of my most favorite seasons next to autumn and I adore the fashions that go along with them. When I imagine spring I think of flowy, unstructured pieces, the use of natural textiles and over-sized comfortability. One of my first stops to preview spring 2012 collections is at JNBY Canada. They are true innovators when it come to working with new textiles and creating different ways to wear clothes. I am always a huge fan of their easy and relaxed … more …
I won’t be riding into the sunset anytime soon but western inspired boots are the “it” silhouette for Spring 2012. They have come a long way from the traditional pointed toe, tall shaft, contrast stitch cowboy boot. Here are some sure fire styles that will get you some nods:
The western like heel on this Acne “Pistol” zip up, makes this the perfect casual jean boot. The exaggerated long leather pull tab is a nice detail.
The Cobra Society boot is made with a perfect blend of quality Italian leather and traditional Moroccan rags. Yes, I would like to walk through the desert in these boots and would think about giving up my first born for a pair.
This Isabel Marant bootie can go with just about everything. I prefer suedes over leather … more …
My first “lately” post for 2012. I know that technically in the fashion world we are in pre-Spring mode…but here in Vancouver we are just getting snow and it’s mid January. However, it’s not stopping me from wearing my pony haired, leopard print, smoking loafers (www.sterlingshoes.com, $69.95). I say “screw you winter boots!”
Because I was plan old curious, I ordered a bucket bag from www.shoedazzle.com. (Please spare me the cheese and please don’t judge). To be honest I was not expecting much since I only paid around $45 CDN for this bag (this is including shipping by the way). The quality of the man-made material bag was impressive and the shipping was speedy. They also didn’t charge me extra for duty once it arrived to my door which is … more …
Macy’s location on 34th Street is getting a re-do and we are talking a massive $400 million investment of their flagship store in New York City. The plan is to be more focused on more upscale food eateries, the implementation of better technology and most importantly a re-vamp of the shoe department. (So exciting).
Yes, the already crazy busy shoe department of Macy’s is getting a multi-year renovation, expanding the second floor women’s shoe department to 39,000 square feet and it will also feature a coffee, wine and chocolate bar. What can get any better, have I died and gone to heaven? Shoes, coffee, wine and chocolate - All on one floor. It’s absolutely indulgent and over the top but it’s also a very logical plan.
Renovations are starting this … more …
