A Tribute to Shoe Love

Saint Laurent Tribute sandals

I'm always in search of stylish and high impact heels: the higher the better... :-)  As monsieur Louboutin, I do think that high heels empower women in a way.

As my personal birthday gift, I decided to go for some scene stealers: Saint Laurent iconic Tribute sandals. I love their sleek shape and 70s glam (probably my favorite period in Fashion). They are a classic style, yet very trendy, platforms are actually hot again (with thin or thicker heels, as seen in the last run-ways).

I was a little puzzled about the color to choose: Tribute sandals are offered in multiple hues and materials (leather, patent leather, suede...). I didn't want to go for black (I already owns many pairs of blacks and I do think that colorful accessories can add a lot of interest to any outfit), I was tempted first by brown leather: it amplifies the hippy chic/70s vibes of this style, every shades of brown are next season hues and they are perfect for summer... but I like to wear my heels also at night, and   brown is better for days, in my opinion. So I decided to go for the white leather version, pretty delicate, but particularly elegant and more unusual. I'm planning to wear them next summer also in all-white* diva outfits, for instance matched to a white bodycon maxi-dress like the one I recently bought via Styligion.  Stay  tuned for more...

Other notes, if you are planning to go for a pair of Tribute: they run true to size, are very high quality and pretty comfortable for being some sky-high heels.

* White is my favorite color for summer and white/neutrals are pretty trendy too.

Circa-2015 Logo mania: YSL Monogramme Bag

I recently went for this new chain small monogramme bag. It's super cool, falling right along my hips, when worn over the shoulder, with the golden fringes flowing around them #socool

And this logo is a piece of fashion history, representing one of my all time favorite stylists: mr. Yves Saint Laurent. The more I discover about this man, the more I admire his talent and work. That's the way, I guess, to adopt the new logo fashion: in a very selective way, choosing only the brands which really reason to you, or in a playful and ironic way (think about all the parody tees "Feline", "Homies"...). 

Tra i miei acquisti più recenti c'è questa borsina a tracolla di Saint Laurent, super giusta, secondo me. Le borsa, indossata sulla spalla, cade all'altezza dei fianchi seguendo con il bagliore delle frange dorate il mio movimento #tantaroba 

In genere i marchi esibiti non mi fanno impazzire, ma il logo YSL e' il simbolo di uno degli stilisti che amo di più e la storia dell'azienda che ha fondato e continua la sua opera (molto bene). Come avrete notato i loghi esibiti sono tornati di gran moda, vanno scelti comunque con un po' di ironia e di cautela, secondo me.
