Suggested Shopping: Elroy Re-issues Past Favourites

Lately, I've been watching styles online until they eventually sell out and I regret not moving on them quicker. (Like the Irregular Choice Wedges and the Acne Atacomas). If any of you did that with eco-designer Elroy, we have good news! They have re-issued favourite styles from previous seasons and are offering them all at hugely discounted prices.

Stealing the Spotlight: Thieves Fall/Winter '09

I have spoken about how much I admire the work of Sonja den Elzen for Thieves in the past. The Spring/Summer '09 collection was so perfectly executed, that I didn't expect to ever see a future Thieves collection that I loved as much. Thankfully, I was wrong. Sonja continues to evolve and progress each season, and has given us a collection for Fall/Winter '09 that is daring and bold, but in a very clean and sophisticated way.

Delicate Spiderwebs: Shadowplay

I am instantly reminded of my Grandmother whenever I see anything yarn related. She was a knitting pro - a skill I wish I'd been open to learning from her. So, I can't help but have a soft spot for Heather Goldberg's yarn and crystal designs for Shadowplay. Heather creates ethereal, one of a kind, delicate knit necklaces adorned with crystals.

The Twenty Ten: A Space in Between

While I'm not a big fan of the (hair & make-up) styling of the models, the clothing from The Twenty Ten's Season two is amazing. I love the contrast between structure and draping - both elements done perfectly!

Fancy Footwork: 80%20 Spring/Summer '10 Preview

It has to be the grey clouds that have been hanging over Berlin for weeks that have me dreaming of adding florals and pretty colours to my otherwise monochromatic wardrobe. And now that I've had a sneak peak at 80%20's new Spring/Summer 2010 collection, winter cannot come and go soon enough. The collection still has all the elements we've come to love and expect from designer CeCe Chin - unique, fashion forward, wearable designs (and of course the much copied hidden wedge heel). This season, CeCe has incorporated a feminine, playful touch with searsucker and Liberty prints.

Odd Attraction: Irregular Choice Wedges

I used to have a slight obsession with Irregular Choice when they first popped onto the scene, and still to this day I cannot part with a few pairs. But in recent years, their designs started to feel too out there for me. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the crazy had been toned down a bit in the Fall/Winter catalog and I have now developed an odd attraction to the What an Angel wedges.

New Kids on the Block: PotiPoti

Walking along Oderberger Straße (Berlin) a couple of weekends ago (on the way to my new favourite Sunday activity - Bear Pit Karaoke in Mauerpark!!), I noticed that the space once home to potipoti is now occupied by another designer. Turns out - this is actually good news. potipoti is relocating to bigger, more central space at Rosenthaler Straße 66, with an official store opening party tonight. The new boutique will also stock La Casita de Wendy, Beyond the Valley, El Delgado Buil, Martin Lamothe and Cecilia Sörensen!
