Funky and stylish shoes have now become the top sellers in the year gone by. But personal choices play a huge role in what you will buy? Following trends can be very expensive and trends change as surely as day becomes night. Simple yet elegant is the mantra for mens shoes. But only wearing the correct pair of shoes can give your attire the perfect look. Any mismatch can completely derail the final look of your attire.
Lust for shoes is not gender specific. Men can equally go crazy over a pair of shoes. Keeping up with the styles that rule the market, the brands that offer a mindboggling array of designs are as much a mens fantasy as they are of women. Magazines have pages dedicated to what is new, what is exclusive, why you need to absolutely own that pair of handmade shoes, and so on and so forth.

USB Foot Warmer Hedgehog Slippers Keep Office Workers’ Tootsies Toasty
By Lucas Coode on January 21st, 2012

With Japan’s power conservation drive in full swing and office thermostats being turned lower nationwide, workplace environments are giving women staffers and executives cold feet… literally. Office dress codes continue to keep ladies in skirts and dresses, and though they’d surely love to bring their comfy, cozy, fluffy plush bunny slippers from home, the ensuing fashion faux pas will likely never be lived down.
JTT Online Shop has a solution of sorts: great big hedgehog-shaped slippers that plug into the user’s computer or laptop via a USB cable!

The partnership between Converse and Missoni has yielded some very memorable footwear, namely the Chuck Taylors the two have produced. This time around, 2 different sneakers, the Pro Leather and Auckland Racer, have been worked on for the Autumn/Winter 2012 season by the famed brands. The Pro Leather continues to utilize Horween Chromexcel leather, which we have seen recently with a couple of hi versions of the shoe.


Bella Donna Dress, Betty Platform, Whiskey River Pendant.

Long time no talk (I have been quite busy with the French sales these times)! Third item I have bought during the winter sales is this crewneck knit from Norse Projects. Whats cool with Yoox is: they always propose nice stuff you have missed from past seasons. The only trick is to dig the site, searching regurlarly from brands you like, and Norse Projects is one of them.

This 100% heavy wool made crewneck is woven in Italy and it features a Nordic pattern. It actually comes from their AW10 collection. I was looking for a light color to contrast with the rest of my outfit. The sweaters white color suits this description and its navy pattern is echoed on my Bleu de Paname trousers.
