Fashion Forward #15 - Addicted To Brogue



If you've ever worn a good pair of leather boots you'll know just how empowering it is and how that solid first step can set the tone for the rest of your day. A lot of the past Fall/Winter runway shows featured solid boots and one in particular, the Brogue Boot, was more popular than the others. I am a big fan of the perforated look (brogueing, or perforating the surface of the shoe originated with the purpose of allowing water inside the shoe to drain out when the wearer crossed wet terrain) and I am glad more and more boots are manufactured using this technique.


A nice pair of Tricker's Brogue boots can be found at OiPolloi.com

Urban Inspiration #2 - 2011 Wird Alles Besser

Happy 2011, may you all have a fashionable and happy new year! A combination of WearPalettes.com and LookBook.nu brought me to Simon Schmidt, a 14 year old blogger from Germany. Even if he were older I'd still be a fan of his looks, however for someone to have developed a unique and interesting sense of style at such a young age is what makes Simon that more special! Check Simon's blog SimonKreative out for more of his looks!
