SHOE ENVY: Ash Delire Sandals

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

Happy St. Patricks Day to all of you Irish folk out there. Yesterday, we showed you how to wear green without looking like a d-bag and gave you a men’s style guide for the holiday. To help your feet celebrate in style, today’s shoe envy will have you, well, green with envy. The Delire Sandals from cool girl brand Ash are the perfect shade of green and will show off that shining new pedicure on this gorgeous day. Wear them to make a black dress pop or mix and match your greens if you’re feeling extra festive. Either way, these leather platform heels are sure to become an instant favorite.

How to Stay Sheepishly Hot Like Tom Brady

Edited by FashionIndie

While it’s coming up Spring on this balmy February 1st, I find myself thinking about our [mutual] friends in the Midwest. How cold it must be out there, hardly feeling any of the finer effects of global warming. So to you, bundlers of the cold Middle America, we are sympathetic to your dire need to wear suede boots lined with sheepskin. We dug around for some that aren’t, well, ugly. And gentlemen, know the shoes that Tom Brady swears will keep you foot-balls warm. 

Living on the Wedge

Edited by Samantha Lim

One of the things we love about summer are the extra shoe options to keep our legs long and lean. Today in the FashionIndie loft, we spotted 7 pairs of wedges on editor stems, and it inspired this roundup of 15 fierce pairs that will top off your mid summer looks.

BOUTIQUE CRITIQUE :: A. Turen : Look 2

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

What, you wanna mess? With this? You crazy?? There might be some vintage teeshirt collectors out there that feel this way about Ashley Turen, for she takes these rare, valuable vintage tees and has her way with them. Crazy? Maybe. But I say fearless. She takes pieces of clothing that have existed in a certain way, and that have exact replicas floating around the universe, and transforms them into one-of-a-kind. Her style of painting gives the shirts an other-worldly, walking-through-space effect. And the cold shoulder cutouts on this one? Divine. And only at A.Turen.

BOUTIQUE CRITIQUE :: A. Turen : Look 1

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

Across from the comically delicious Meatball Shop on Stanton St. in New York sits a boutique that boasts some ballsy moves of its own. Alongside brands like Timo Weiland, Martin Margiela and other emerging talents, storeowner Ashley Turen carries her own collection of hand painted pieces. Here’s where balls of steel come in to play: she hand paints vintage Chanel bags and coveted concert tees (see them here this week). For the shopper that wants something rich with history and a fresh coat of paint, A. Turen is the destination.
