I am a sucker for a product with a cause. I am also a sucker for a fabulous sandal! So, when the two are combined, the world is a better place 😉 

As a fan of Stuart Weitzman, I was overjoyed to receive an email advertising his spring 2015 Leg Wrap sandal. Not only have I been eyeing this beautiful pair of sandals since they first hit his website a few weeks ago, I was now given a reason to actually buy a pair! Proceeds from the sale of Stuart Weitzman’s Leg Wrap sandal go directly to Dr. Marsha A. Moses Cancer Research Initiatives. Information on her work here. Love that!

Stuart Weitzman’s Leg Wrap sandal Dr. Marsha A. Moses Cancer Research Initiatives is a beautiful on-trend shoe which is fabulous for the spring 2015 season. The Leg Wrap Sandal benefiting Dr. Marsha A. Moses Cancer Research Initiatives by Stuart Weitzman are made in red, yellow, black, denim, and platinum noir which is a beautiful, soft metallic hue.

Shoes with ties, wraps, and straps are hot for the warm weather season. Not only is the shoe itself on-trend, it is a versatile piece! These fabulous high heeled sandals can easily be worn with a pair of this season’s boot cut or flare jeans, to spice up a casual look, or paired with a dress for evening occasions. The black or platinum noir pair are perfect for pairing with semi-formal attire, cocktail dresses, and even gala gowns! Now how’s that for versatility?!

I am trying to decide whether to purchase the denim, black, or platinum noir pair of Stuart Weitzman’s Leg Wrap Sandal. Which color do you love?

Asia Fashion Collection showed their new collection for fall / winter 2015 / 2016 on February 14, 2015 in The Salon at Lincoln Center during New York Fashion Week. Asia Fashion Collection features designs from Vantan Design Institute. As a result, the collection features innovative and fresh designs from multiple designers from the institute.

Designers from Asia Fashion Collection created edgy designs which pushed the boundaries of traditional fashion. The designs fused artistic expression together with wearable art; creating a thought-provoking collection which transcends seasonal trends; and what we think fashion should be. Love that!

The creations on the Asia Fashion Collection runway at New York Fashion Week were playful; fusing together modern prints and silhouettes with personal expression. Designers also played with volume which created flattering drape, silhouettes, and overall ensembles. The collections inspired onlookers to think past trends and traditional style in order to take oneself back to a time when getting dressed was fun, playful, and personal.

Isn’t this what fashion should be? Art as opposed to commercial marketing platforms? Thought to ponder. . .

Mara Hoffman sent her fall / winter 2015 / 2016 collection down the New York Fashion Week runway on Saturday, February 14, 2015. The cool weather collection was a fresh take on Mara Hoffman’s classic style; offering a new color palette, and silhouettes with traditional Mara Hoffman prints and texture. Loved it!

Mara Hoffman showed soft neutrals, calm colors, and prints on her fall 2015 runway. A move away from bright colors and complicated prints, the collection offered the same travel inspired vibe we come to expect from Hoffman; with a fresh twist. Hemlines were long and fabrics were flowing. Texture was soft and noticeable; while maintaining an understated look. This collection was more street worthy than previous collections we have seen from Mara Hoffman’s.

Her overall past collections instantly take you away to an exotic location; making many of her clothing perfect for vacations, travel, beach days, and pool parties. For fall 2015, Mara Hoffman’s collection is still travel inspiring, but it can also be easily worn on the street; making it her most versatile collection yet! Love!

I was instantly drawn to her neutral prints and flowing fabrics. Her cozy knits evoke feelings of romantic walks on the beach during cool fall evenings or mornings; yet offer the option to walk off the beach and into a neighborhood eatery for dinner or brunch.
