There are specific brands you go to when you want the best in particular products, clothing, shoes, etc. When it comes to nautical footwear the first and only brand that should come to mind is the iconic Sperry Top Sider. When you’re looking for trendy yet comfortable, ultimate traction providing, quality boat shoes, nothing tops the 77-yr old brand’s fashion legacy.
Authentic Original Boat Shoe – Though Sperry has introduced us to many variations of their classic boat shoe, there’s nothing like the original. This classic features genuine handsewn tru-moc construction in “oh-so-perfect for boating” seersucker nautical stripes. The 360° genuine raw hide laces are looped through rust proof eyelets for secure fit and long life. This original boat shoe also features Sperry’s signature traction and the shock absorbing EVA heel cup which provides added comfort for all day walking.
Nantucket Loafer – who says classic loafers can’t be chic. The Sperry Nantucket Loafer embodies the practical slip-on style but with a pretty and sleek update. Fans of classic loafer styles will love the traditional moc-styling and buckle detailing across the vamp. Special touches include contrast leather piping around the top, a smidgen of a heel for a touch of height and a luxe leather lining.

This great wedge gives you the look of a classic, chic sling back with modern and nautical features. You’ll love the cork wrap wedge, skip lace detail, and metallic leather upper, colorblocked with neutral tan.
Men’s Authentic Original Boat Shoe – style and comfort of a Sperry boat shoe in a sharp, stylish silhouette. A perfect match with chinos, the Men’s Authentic Original Boot features a handsewn Tru-Moc construction, and a non-marking rubber outsole.

It’s brands like these that make my job excruciatingly painful. The gorgeous elegance of textured, pattern heavy combinations mixed throughout the Elizabeth and James collection makes a girl want what she can’t have. Fusing an uptown chic with downtown couture, colorful accents and masculine cuts, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have yet again released double trouble for my pocket book.
Vintage x Retro x Modern, from shoes to accessories this collection turns the fashion conscious head spinning. Luxuriously modern in approach the twins have managed to capture classic elegance with contemporary cool. A bit pricey for the average consumer but each piece speaks loudly, so splurging every once in awhile with this brand will keep your closet up to date. Above are my SOME of my favorites and there is much more coming from the Spring collection. Included in DNA’s New Arrivals is a pair of the E-Clair Colorblock High Heel Sandal.

Gawking in awe at Spring prints, New Yorkers wonder when we’ll get the chance to brighten our wardrobe with botanical beauties. We won’t be able to live with ourselves come spring if we don’t find some way to incorporate florals into our wardrobe without looking like a 16-year old teenybopper with a propensity for Lisa Frank.
You have two options when it comes to florals: you can go the feminine route with flats or flatforms or you could add some edge to balance out the dainty dresses with combat boots. When it comes to accessorizing your florals play with prints but be careful because print on print can go terribly wrong (we don’t need you coming back crying to us because you made a fashion fail).

Apparently having a shoe collection is the new “IT” thing to do; it feels like every day we report that some celebrity or reality star wants an in with the fashion industry. One such celebrity is Halle Berry, who is quickly becoming a woman of all trades. The actress slash Revlon spokeswoman teamed up with popular German retailer Deichmann Shoes to create her own line: ’5th Avenue by Halle Berry’ collection.
Fitting for women her age (we mean that in the kindest way possible), the collection features fairly low heels and wedges, mixing comfort and style for the modern mom. Boasting 40 limited edition shoes, Berry is proud of the new baby in her life, her shoe line. In discussing her new endeavor she said,
“Shoes are a statement. They can be very sexy; they can say something about where you are in the day; they can say what your mood is; they give you a chance to accessorize. And I’m a girl that loves to change my shoes all the time. It’s an expression of who you are really. I’m a girl if I find a shoe that I really like I like to get them in all colours. I’m big on that.”
With the reasonable starting price of £29.99, budget savvy mothers are eagerly awaiting the UK launch in March.

The man can do no wrong — Karl Lagerfeld, the “king” of fashion, never fails to amaze us with his many styling and design talents (not to mention the 30 iPads he carries with him at all times). Lagerfeld’s diffusion line, Karl, launched January 25th and is sold exclusively online at Net-a-Porter.
Alike to his own personal style, the budget collection features black and white clothing and accessories retailing from $50 for a canvas tote to aprox. $1,000 for leather pieces. As to be expected, Karl’s trademark fingerless leather gloves make an appearance as do fabulous faux colors. Among the 70-piece collection are 8 pairs of shoes, from metallic sneakers to gladiator sandals, the footwear is simple yet impressive.
We can handle the trademark Karl profile on the tees and tanks, but what about the shoes?! Walking with the support of Lagerfeld on your soles would sure put a pep in our step (we’re just sayin…it’s suggestion for the next collection).
