What started out as a hallmark of the cultured gentleman has now become the “it” boy/girl staple for our fashion-forward times. The oxford style loafer has positioned itself as the ultimate unisex accessory. They can take a look from a gallery showing of your artist friend’s overpriced renderings, to a Steve Aoki-induced dance coma at some off the grid hot spot. They’ve become so versatile in this respect since the unconventional variations of today, which include flagrant gold and reflective metallic, leave you susceptible to the adoration of wishful onlookers. But when you need an ego boost–a look that says, “I’m better than you”–you’ll never go wrong when you unite a classic, jet black pointy-toe leather with your favorite Banana Republic pea coat and bulky linen scarf.
