5 Shoes That Make Me Feel Quite Enthused About Spring

I've been wearing variations on black boots for the past, oh, eight months, and therefore I'm in need of a mayjah shoe overhaul for spring. Here are five spring shoes I'd change outfits for five times in one day.

($490, Prada, Neimanmarcus.com)

Looky how sweet these woven Prada flats are. I love how they're ballet flats but so not precious ballerina-y, you know? They almost remind me of fancy Vans. Black pants, white button-down, a couple bangles. Eee!


($90, Aldoshoes.com)

I would literally die in these. Not in the Rachel Zoe way. I would break limbs wearing these, but if were to attempt to wear wedges, I'd happily go down in these.

($335, Diane Von Furstenberg)

These Diane Von Furstenberg heels are the equivalent of a classic trench -- timeless, and they fance up almost everything. Oy. I'm thinking near-naughty thoughts about these.

($450, Jil Sander, Saksfifthavenue.com)

I am NOT a white jeans type, but I'm also not a $450 sandal type. But if I suddenly woke up tomorrow willing to both, well, I'd do both. Maybe with some kinda chambray tank? Maybe? These are kinda hard to style, but for some reason, I'm thinking denim/ chambray shirt.

(Swedish Hasbeens x H&M, available April 20)

SO psyched that Swedish Hasbeens are collaborating with H&M. Granted, maybe I don't understand how physics or whatever work because I truly don't get how these slip-ons stay on, but they'd look so effing adorable with light skinny jeans a nautical striped top.

Prada's Cavallino Bowler Is Doing Wild Things To My Head

I don't know who I think I am, but apparently I'm the kind of person who somehow, suddenly looks at Prada bags. Generally I write off Prada bags a.) because I can't afford them, DUHR, and b.) because I associate them with those terrible nylon black backpacks which are just the worst. But somehow I'm all into the idea of Prada's leopard-print Cavallino bowler.

($3,100, Prada, NeimanMarcus.com)

Great, right? Too bad I enjoy "eating," and "having an apartment" and "not being wildly in debt."

Anyway, my obnoxious Prada leopard-print bag fantasies inspired a major animal-print binge, which netted the following:

($585, Hammitt, Searlenyc.com)

Studs with animal print can be a leeeettle cowboy, but this bag by LA brand Hammitt still kinda works.

($745, Stella McCartney, Net-a-porter.com)

The elusive zebra-colored leopard print! Score!

($564, Opening Ceremony, Asos.com)

Opening Ceremony! Why are you so good to us? (And also, why are you so expensive?)

($158, Sam Edelman, Nordstrom)

Sam Edelman's Katrice wedge FTW! So '70s it's sick!

($80, Topshop)

I love an adventurous outfit, but have these leopard-print harem pants crossed the line from adventurous to crazy? Like Real Housewives table-flipping levels of nuts? Also, as much as I wanna make harem pants "work," I'm becoming increasingly convinced that they barely even look good on models whose body types are "pencil."

($36, Walmart)

Finally, this IS FashionBinge, where we do love a good deal, so far it be from me to leave you without something affordable. I mean, this Walmart leopard-print bag isn't the absolute worst. I'd carry it to the gym. Seriously, just tell people it's vintage deadstock, and they'll be all "ooh!"

Breves do Mundo da Moda:

Do you speak Prada?

Depois do famoso padrão de andorinhas tão tipicamente português e das lunettes giríssimas alusivas a Lisboa e à estância balnear de Setúbal, a marca italiana fundada pela família Prada vai inaugurar dentro de poucos dias, mais precisamente dia 6 de Junho, a sua primeirissima e única Flagship store em Portugal

After the famous swallows pattern so typically Portuguese and the wonderful sunglasses alluding to Lisbon and the beach resort of Setubal, the Italian brand that was founded by the Prada's family will open within a few days, more precisely on 6th June, its very first and unique Flagship store in Portugal .

Vão ser cerca de 650 metros quadrados de puro luxo e italian lifestyle, projectados por Roberto Baciocchi em dois andares do nº 216 da Avenida da Liberdade.

Mal posso esperar para ver o décor em vidro, veludo verde, espelhos e aço polido e as colecções de prêt-a-porter, carteiras, sapatos, maquilhagem, perfumes e acessórios da nova coqueluche da Liberty Avenue.

That will be almost 650 square feet of pure luxury and Italian lifestyle, designed by Roberto Baciocchi on the two first floors of 216, Avenida da Liberdade.

I just cannot wait to see the décor of pure glass, green velvet, mirrors and polished steel, just not to mention the rtw collections, bags, shoes, makeup, fragrances and accessories of the new craze of Avenida da Liberdade.

MILANO E PARIGI PER LUI

2010-2011

A pedido de muitas famílias e também porque me apercebi que tenho mais leitores masculinos do que o que pensava, o Fashion-à-Porter vai passar a dedicar mais tempo e posts à Ala masculina.

Depois da campanha Lacoste RED para ele, é a vez das semanas da moda masculinas de Milão e Paris darem ar de sua graça pelas "paginas" deste blog, que se quer unissexo tal qual um icónico par de Levi's 501.

Este Inverno (Winter) 2010-2011 as palavras de ordem vão ser:
