As much as we have a fondness for the watches that you could trade in for a luxury vehicle , the boutique designer brands like Tsovet have been able to retian our admiration wit their empahasis on design quality, and simplicity. The SVT-FW44 ,(available soon) inspired by classic military styles is just one of those classic pieces that stands out on the wrist of a man or a woman without having  to try too hard.For more info visit www.tsovet.com

In my love of footwear one of the the things I have noticed is that  while we , the women are the ones teetering around in them a lot of the big names of the luxury footwear scene are males, from Blahnik, Louboutin, to Kirwood  , Hinfray ect .Therefore women footwear designers have always had a special place in my heart like Charlotte Olympia, Atalanta Weller , Camilla Skovegaard , Omelle and now Kerrie Luft.

Based in London, Kerrie Luft designs shoes with an emphasis on novelty of materials and construction .Inspired by Art Nouveau she creates shoes that are so beautifully made that I could honestly put on my coffee  table as art. Take a closer look at her stunning creations on the next page. Spotted on dazed.

Andrés Sardá titled her Autumn/Winter 2009 lingerie collection ‘The Spell of the Femme Fatale’ where she explores the different representations of erotic icons . The collection  truly separates the women from the girls  with looks that are sexy with capital S. Corsets, unitards,  bodysuits  mesh dresses presented with with a hint of fantasy that never overshadows the lingerie itself. On the next page a closer lok at Andrés Sardá Autumn/Winter 2009.Via VS.

With a passion for shoe making, Keiko Hirosue created K*(Kstar) shoes   a few months ago and has already garnered a following  of footwear aficionados addicted to her sleek and modern aesthetic.

Last night we had the pleasure of attending General Idea by Bumsuk ’s shindig to celebrate fashion week at Anchor. The menswear label designed by Bumsuk Choi drew a fun crowd with a serious shoe game! Check on the next page to get an idea.

I had to channel my inner Tommy Ton when I spotted these Louis Vuitton Spicy sandals last night in NYC.Truly art on your feet!

I discovered the LaRok label a few years back  in my quest for the perfect parka  that was sporty enough to rock with kicks, did not take two seats on the subway like some bubble coats have the habit of doing, and would not  clash if I  fancied  wearing stilletos. You get the picture. 

The label has been creating very well made contemporary pieces that get us fiending every time with designs   you would expect t from high end designers. The La Rok Charmed Jacket for those of you who are accessories challenged is one of those pieces that could easily be mistaken for chanel of moschino. Available at ssense.
