Splurge - Fall Shoes

For fall I always look for a dress sneaker, a casual sneaker, a boot, and a loafer/driving shoe. This season presents a perfect option for each one of these categories. It's clear that they are all very expensive shoes, but there is something about a great shoe that is hard to find. My shoe needs to compliment everything in my closet while retaining it's own voice and standing out so that I get some bang for my buck. Here, I present my picks for Fall in every category. Splurge.

Dress Sneaker: Trussardi 1911 High-Top Sneaker - $526

This Trussardi high top is classic and stylish. The plaid works perfectly with the black leather, and the white laces and sole lighten it all up and provide a nice contrast. This shoe would look great with a pair of dress pants or some skinny dark jeans and a dress shirt.

Casual Sneaker: Common Projects Zip-Up Sneaker - $385

The zip is a cool detail and the two tone gives it a little edge. On the other hand, white and grey go with everything and their design durability ensures that these sneakers will only look better with wear.

Boot: Sorel Caribou x colette Snow Boot - $322

Sorel Caribou make the classic snow boot. Through their collaboration with colette, they have updated the boot into something that will look classic with any winter look, while still delivering pop by way of the neon laces.

Loafer/ Driving Shoe: Tod's Moccasin - $425

Tod's make, hands down, my favorite driving shoe loafer. I would probably go with the grey for everyday wear, but the red and green could definitely be a chic statement.

SPLURGE - Pharrell Williams & Moncler at colette - $640 to $1045

Moncler refuses to give up its number one spot as the trendiest luxury outerwear manufacturer in the world. After collaborations with Thom Brown (who now designers their Gamme Bleu line) and Sacai (a niche womenswear designer), Moncler is at it again, this time with Pharrell Williams designing a capsule collection of vests (resembling the bulletproof kind) and a coat (which shares the same forrest green tree print as one of the vests). The collection is entirely green and black and is full of excellent statement pieces for this fall/winter season. Might I add that Monclers are also, without a doubt, the warmest coats of all time. The coats are available at colette and are already selling out in their second day on the racks. Splurge.

SPLURGE - colette x DC Comics x Lanvin Tee - $180

Continuing with todays T-shirt theme, here is a tee well worth the money (and it is quite a sum of money). Cult fashion house, meet cult retailer, meet cult comic book character... in dog form. I've been lusting after the Batman/ "Batdog" T-Shirt by Lanvin for a couple weeks now, so if any of you out there have $180 lying around, do me a solid and pick this up. Splurge.
