Obsessed — Glitter Boots

November 24, 2014

Rarely do I meet a sparkle or sequin I don't like. I'm a fashion magpie, basically. So when I see a new and fun way to add a little glitter to my getup, I go for it.

Saint Laurent made my dreams come true with a fall runway show full of sparkling boots and Mary-Janes, and a plethora of other designers has followed suit and presented their own versions of the disco boot. The most popular style seems to be a flat or low-heel ankle boot, but other designers have opted for taller boots or even combat-style lace-up shoes.

If you are looking for a statement piece to wear to a New Year's Eve party or other festive soiree, a pair of sequined boots will do the trick nicely. And another cool thing: when wearing a pair of eye-catching shoes, the rest of your outfit can be simple and minimalistic, as Gilda Ambrosio styled her pink Saint Laurent pair.

Obsessed: Shrimps Faux Fur Coats

November 21, 2014

One | Two | Three | Four | Five
Never before has the case for faux fur looked so good! By now you've probably seen street style stars and celebs are obsessed with British faux fur brand Shrimps and it's easy to see why. The fun (and warm!) outerwear options are all about bright colors and making a fun statement even when the mercury drops below 0º.

Personally, I'm a fan of the cotton candy pink coat with navy stripes—shocker, I know—but all the fun colors look great and really add that wow factor to what could be an otherwise simple outfit.

The best part is that with the success of Shrimps, hopefully other brands will turn to faux over real fur. I didn't even know Shrimps used faux fur until I read their 'About' page, that's how realistic their coats look! I just hope PETA got the message, because nobody wants red paint splattered over these gorgeous coats.

In addition to outerwear, Shrimps also has faux fur scarves, jackets, and even clutches, so check them out!
