My Fall Favorites

I'm into the "outdoors-woman" style this fall, instead of splurging hundreds of dollars for the designer's interpretation of the look, why not go to the original sources for a fraction of the price? I love Pendleton wool fabrics, especially their classic Glacier Park blanket with the four color stripes. But as a throw for our living room, I would go for this blue and brown plaid number. I'm also CRAZY about their line of bags, some of the patterns are a little too Southwestern but the red and olive one is subtle and looks so cozy for fall. The leather tote bag looks super cool, it's got all the details of a high-end designer tote bag but with a reasonable price tag. I dig the basket purse look, but not as extreme as Jane Birkin in the 60's, maybe these Nantucket basket purses would do, and the French market basket is a perfect alternative to a canvas tote bag! And can you believe these high-top espadrille sneakers? I MUST have them! I don't care that they are not winter shoes because they are just so perfect!

Green Sneaks

These gorgeous sneakers are a Pierre-Andre Sénizergues (founder of skateboard-shoe company, Sole Technology Inc., parent company of Etnies) x Headbangirl (one of the creative forces behind Colette) x Monbianco (handmade Italian vintage sneaker brand) collaboration, available at Colette. The eco-friendly shoes are made of "limited emission" material, featuring a classic Liberty floral. I think I like these sneaks more than the Nike Liberty Dunk!

Give Them A Try?

I don't really like to wear sneakers, but I kinda want these! I'm crazy about Liberty prints and Nike really did a good job with the design. I might have to go to Opening Ceremony and give them a try. I have a feeling that they are already sold out, they were released yesterday in New York.

The Best Summer Shoes!

If you were to buy summer shoes from only one label, it'll have to be F-Troupe! They are super comfortable, stylish and none of the shoes have heels more than 1 inch. And the best part is their prices- each pair averages about $100-$250. Check out their website for store listing.images: F-Troupe
