No sneakers allowed.
Given my love of extravagant shoes, it’s funny it took this long for me to get a feathery pair. Opportunity presented itself when I saw ATP Atelier’s (a brand that’s close to my heart) collaboration with Browns on sale. I couldn’t jump on it fast enough.
Classic, grown up, subdued prints are major this fall. Plaid, houndstooth, animal prints – the classic neutral tones, not the neon, LMFAO Party Rock music video type colours – and tweed.
So I take a very adult, mature trend and decide to wear it like a school girl.
See what I did there? The Burberry check pattern is probably one of the most recognisable ever – and very on par with the brand itself, it stands the test of time, being that it was registered as a trademark 99 years ago.
This is a designer that I consider carries a genuinely classic collection – yes, because many pieces that get dubbed as “timeless” have a fashion life of about 10 years, but the Burberry trench coat is forever in style. This isn’t the time for a trench unboxing, unfortunately, my wallet is still unprepared for such, but I got myself the next best thing.
My kryptonite.
My love.
My everything: shoes.
