Sore, Sundance…And You! And the Winner is…

by

The winner of our Sorel, Sundance, and…You! Sorel boot giveaway is Emily S. of New York City, NY.  Emily said she would bring to Sundance: “I’d pack my Sorels–if I won them, of course–a snuggle to keep me warm, my iPhone so I could use the Sundance app, a thermos filled with hot chocolate, a camera, and my boo.” Congrats Emily, and thanks to everyone who entered! Stay warm this winter, and come back soon for another giveaway (and of course, awesome fashion and beauty articles).

Spring Fever Comes Early with Peeptoe Clogs

by

This post is from our friends at thefind.com

Given the fashion world’s love affair with clogs, despite our original skepticism, by now it’s no surprise that the trend isn’t just a one-season fad. Ever since Chanel surprised us by breaking them out on the Spring 2010 runway, the risky look has slowly been surely been making its way into mainstream style, with wearable versions now being spotted in every department store shoe department (and online boutique)! And now that more timid fashionistas aren’t as confused and befuddled by the idea of modern takes on clogs, the style is pushing the style boundaries with seasonal updates like shearling, platform soles, and now peeptoes as we make our way into spring. Peeptoe clogs are a little easier to take in than the traditional silhouette because the open toe makes the shoe less clunky and a bit more streamlined. I love the tasseled loader-inspired pair from French Connection, but for something a bit dressier, the sandal look of these Jimmy Choo suede clogs are sexy without taking away from the charm of the style. If you like a sleeker look without the studs, these Diane von Furstenberg peeptoes are a great pair to ease into the trend, but if you’re shopping on a budget, Forever 21 has a pair for a fraction of the cost!

Vivienne Westwood “Get A Life” Palladium Collection

by

I recently wrote about The Palladium Project, a unique design collaboration with bloggers and FIT jewelry students that will be making its debut in the spring, and in the meanwhile, I just gained news of Vivienne Westwood’s  “Get A Life” Palladium Collection – with the designs to launch during London Fashion Week in February 2011 and sold exclusively in Vivienne Westwood boutiques in London and Los Angeles in spring 2011.

Dame Vivienne Westwood took nature and paganism as her inspiration for the collection, using shapes and objects such as acorns, and oak trees to represent her message of “Get a Life” — stopping climate change and working to save the planet. Below is a sketch from the collection – more info to come as it becomes available!
