AT THE EDGE EDITORIAL: RED SOLES

Featuring Giuseppe Zanotti Design heels

Clicking your heels together three times will not take you to Kansas in a pair of Giuseppe Zanotti ruby slippers. Walking down the red carpet -- probably. Rolling on top of a red carpet -- even more likely. With a flair for at-the-edge rock and roll and an eye for the sensuality of a female foot -- Giuseppe Zanotti enlightens us with a quintessential necessity: Whether they’re pumps, stilettos, sandals, or slingbacks; red soles in the closet are the key behind any powerful woman. 

All that glitters is not always gold - quite often it’s red.

I've kind of been obsessing over this Asos leather + leopard jacket- like actually dreaming about it. A little sad, but true. So creating this trend board was fun because I got to fantasize about what I would wear it with. Added some more leather and touches of red, threw in some Alexander Wang, and tada! A rocker chic look!    xo, J

HOT LIST: OSCAR DE LA RENTA SPRING 2012

More we loved from Fashion Week...


Oscar de la Renta is NEVER a disappointment at fashion week. He has an impeccable taste for beauty, elegance and sophistication. In this runway he literally knocks our shoes off with his his use of jewel tones and voluminous bodies with the perfect touch of lace to embrace the new season. Can't wait to see some of these on the red carpet!

STYLE INSPIRATION: 1970'S INFLUENCE

1. Elizabeth and James Maddie Tie Neck Blouse & Bell Bottom Leather Pants

2. ASOS Round Sunglasses

3. MinkPink Accessories Widsom Etched Cuff

4. Monserat De Lucca Feather Earrings

5. Pieces Dertan Small Leather Flap Satchel

6. Opening Ceremony Bernadette Velvet pumps

7. Pixie Market Crochet Bell Sleeve Dress

I wish I was was able to live in the '70s- the ideals, the atmosphere, and um- THE CLOTHES are what makes it my favorite era.  

But at least we are lucky enough to have designers that take inspiration from the '70s, and try to emulate the style of that decade. Elizabeth and James (one of my favorite brands), in my opinion has a very vintage-bohemian vibe and does a great job of bringing the '70s back to life! Check out the items on the trend board above that could add some '70s flare to your wardrobe!
