Fallen Head Over Heels in Italy

I've always enjoyed watching how things are made. Especially things I love, like shoes. There is something magical about the process from inception to an actual physical product you can hold in your hands or in this case, wear on your feet. "It seems like magic, and in the end you realize that its totally human," proclaims J. Crew's Creative Director, Jenna Lyons, who along with  Marissa Webb, head designer take us on a trip to Italy to show us why they make their shoes there.

 This season pick a default go-to pop of color to infuse into your spring looks to keep them fresh. Then keep it in mind when shopping for makeup, shoes,and accessories. 2011 is definitely all about the Lavender and Lancome's Ultra Lavande Spring 2011 Color by Aaron DeMey is right on cue.

Feels Like I've Been Here Before



"They evoke a nostalgic dream place of elemental qualities. Heat, sweat, skin. Distilled raw life waiting for something to happen. A memory harsh in its poverty but rich in spirit and feeling."
-Leonie Purchas (You Outta Know Her)
