New Spring clogs at No.6

No.6 released their new spring clogs and I have been deliberating on which are going to be my clogs of choice this season. Here are the contenders:


The new Two-strap clog on the mid-heel - so simple and i love the large buckle. The low heel height reminds me of those A Detacher sandals from last year. The Indigo color is picture here although it is indistinguishable from black; I assume you can tell the difference in person.


I am also loving the Two-tone clog on the platform base. Whether I can actually walk in them remains to be seen but they are very chic nonetheless.




And the new front-seam sandal is pretty great too. I like it in naked. Although I don't think the wedge base is really that comfortable.

The new blue-grey color called Alaska looks good in almost every style:




They are still updating their site daily with new styles. So be sure to check there often.

More Isabel Marant - Kandisa Jacket

Isabel Marant does some sort of quilted jacket every season and one of these years, I am going to buy one. The Kandisa jacket is from the Etoile line but still rings in at a steep $640, steep I think because it is technically a lightweight jacket made of denim. Despite the high price, I do see this is as a classic piece, as classic as one of her linen tees, or ruffle skirts. In general, I have to say that almost all of my IM pieces get worn repeatedly and i get compliments regularly on them. And I have a few pieces that I must say I love more now than when I first got them.


The Kandisa jacket is one of those classic pieces that will be identifiably from her "Japan" collection of SS14 but still simple enough to be timeless. It is almost sold out, so if you want it - act fast. It's available at lagarconne and elizabeth charles.
