Luvi Wheelock’s bridal couture boutique Casa de Novia is hosting an Oscar de la Renta trunk show today and tomorrow from 11am-6pm, and Saturday from 11am-5pm.
You should go, because:

You can see Jenna Bush’s wedding dress (not the custom-made one, but the retail version, which is just as gorgeous).
Oscar de la Renta makes the best bridal [...]

Missoni for Converse

Missoni hearts the 70s, and though the Italian brand is usually dedicated to perfecting clingy knits and retro glam gowns, its next project makes perfect sense.
Angela Missoni’s spring collaboration with Converse (release date is scheduled for April) includes two pairs of classic high-top tennis shoes and will be called the Premium Chuck Hi Missoni collection. [...]

What you’ll find at The FIND Houston = the best stuff of your life.

If you live in Houston and are looking for something different to do this weekend, you should take yourself on a little treasure hunt through the Warehouse District to the underground shopping and fashion “experience,” The FIND. It’s basically located next to the train tracks in a very gutted looking warehouse, but on the inside, [...]

TOMS’ mysterious collaboration

What is it with the fashion world using Twitter to drop hints about new deals?
Well, whatever. This one could be cool:
@TOMSshoes another unique collaboration coming up this fall. Hint: it’s not with an artist, not with a musician… but you guys will dig it.
So, what? An actress? Who loves helping kids in poor [...]

Hunters get the Manolo treatment

It’s Monday, BG blasted my inbox this morning, it’s 90+ degrees outside, and I wish it felt like fall. It’s a shoe day.
Remember back when, and Carrie Bradshaw paid $400 a pop for Manolos? And now, after hours (or years) of play shopping online, you’ve realized that $400 actually seems like a good deal for [...]

Strapped in: The 2 Bandits line keeps your boots up

Truth: it takes me about 2 months to read 1 months’ worth of magazine subscriptions. W takes the longest, since I flip through each editorial about 6 times each. So let’s just say I’m still going over Kate’s cover issue, and while her Mossiness’ spread is exquisite, I can’t get Lara Stone’s rowboat adventure out [...]

See, I told you: socks are back

I told you socks were coming back. And not just for Posh or Prada models. From crazy anklets to layering cozy ballerina socks under your flats, socks aren’t just for bedtime, sick time, gym time or the days you wear boots.
And today I found that Fashionista’s Abby Gardner is backing me up. She found these [...]

Another argument for TOMS shoes

In just the three years since its first “collection,” TOMS shoes has earned a reputation for giving back and starting a comfy new trend. But the company, which pledges to donate one pair of its shoes to needy children in developing countries for every pair purchased, is a little chicer than its grassroots hipster/hippie fan [...]

Elizabeth and James Fall 2009 shoe collection

Best fashion news of the day (that I’ve come across so far) comes in the form of pre-order shoe shopping. Nitrolicious and Fabsugar have posted previews of the Fall 2009 shoe collection from Elizabeth and James, and they’ve really expanded from their first launch.
The Olsens have created oxfords, booties, pumps and tall boots in their [...]
