Shoelewry!

March 12, 2010

In addition to obviously being huge shoe fans we have to admit we also love our jewelry. Sometimes jewelry can be tricky but when it’s done right it’s awesome; which is why we propose putting jewelry in our shoes. Yea, you heard us, jewelry in your shoes. This look comes in many different forms. Try jeweled sandals with a sun dress or denim cutoffs, jeweled flats for a cute office look or jeweled heels with a great little black dress. And with such statement shoes you can keep the rest of the outfit plain and simple. Let your shoes do the talking!

Hey Mickey, You’re So Fine!

December 9, 2009

There’s nothing I love more than a well dressed man. We’ve been focusing a good deal on the ladies recently, so here’s a little help for our guys. This is a great, casual oufit for a night out that’s sure to turn some heads.

Fitted shirts are a must have item in your wardrobe. Oversized t-shirts are not cute. I repeat, oversized t-shirts are NOT cute. Try this on for size – A great, fitted button up with roll-tab sleeves to show off those arms you work on so diligently at the gym.

Investing in a good pair of jeans will go a long way. Gap makes great men’s denim in a variety of washes and styles, like these Authentic Fit jeans.

Venturing outside? Throw on a sweater. Remember, keep it fitted and match your colors. Banana Republic makes a ton of great sweaters for any occasion. This one is perfect for the outfit we’re putting together.

Because the blouse has a little bit of a western feel, adding to that theme without overdoing it will complete the look. These shoes, the Red Tape “Langley”, $99.90, from yours truly, are both comfortable and stylish, two key elements to look for when shopping for menswear.
