Back from NY...
... and this post has nothing to do with the trip. Since I've been back I've been thinking about trends I've been seeing, that honestly I just can't get into.
A trend I could never really get into: frilly socks with chunky sandals or socks with sandals period. I think I may have seen it done okay once in the past year since its been a trend but I think that shit looks wack. But more power to you if that’s what you do.
Now, after being in New York during Spring 2012 fashion week and noticing a girl with those Jeffery Campbell hit platform shoes, and coming back home to Chicago I noticed that I have yet to see a pair on anyone here.
That’s not a bad thing, Chicagoans always do their own thing, for the most part, but somehow that train of thought lead me to wondering which one is preferred, the Jeffery Campbell or Opening Ceremony which also seems to be a hit. I’m a bit partial to the Jeffery Campbell Lita's. I wanted them bad when I first laid eyes on them, the desire has since waned but I’d take a pair if they were offered to me, or on super sale. But which do you prefer?
The Jeffery Campbell Lita platform shoe that comes in over 15 colors and prints and are priced at about $165. (and I'd personally would take them in black suede or blue or maybe that cranberry red or even in leopard print, but the options are almost endless)
Or...
The about $495 Opening Ceremony platforms, that I have yet to see in any other color combination???
I'll post a bit on NY in a few days, but I can say that I had an amazing interview with Andre Wagner of the Abstract Elements blog for the magazine... yes Im still on it!
