SHOE PORN THURSDAY: Delpozo

Posted on October 27, 2016 by Trends & Tribulations

Delpozo’s new creative director Josep Font has been a breath of fresh air for the brand following Jesus del Pozo’s passing in 2011. He has managed to remain true to the brand’s Spanish roots, with colorful designs and prints, while mixing in feminine and romantic vibes.

These velvet pumps are a perfect example of the playful, yet ladylike aesthetic. These flirty heels are covered in pink and navy velvet, with a 4″ chunky heel. Finish off the look with a below-the-knee skirt and high-collar blouse for a polished, yet refined look.

What’s Trending: Velvet Crush

Posted on January 8, 2013 by Trends & Tribulations

Although I have to admit, about 6 months ago, when I thought of velvet in clothing, an image conjured up immediately of my older sister’s numerous pairs of velvet pants from the 90’s (needless to say, cringe-worthy). Nonetheless, velvet has become a big fashion trend this season, and the end is nowhere in sight.

Key point when rocking the trend: Soft velvet fabrics look luxurious, as well as add a very modern touch to the stiff velvet of the 90’s.

For your online shopping convenience, I’ve rounded up a few key velvet pieces that are undoubtedly on my winter wishlist.
