My Latest Obsession

February 11, 2010

I am in a serious state of obsessiveness right now.  Blame it on a post I read yesterday at  www.mattersofstyleblog.com about the new trend in brogues/oxfords.  Amongst the posting was a fabulous picture from The Sartorialist (see above) of a girl wearing the perfect weekend outfit with her brogues.  And I became obsessed.

Up to that moment I didn’t realize that I needed a pair of oxfords back in my life.  Afterall, I wore them back in college.  Do I really need to do that trend again?

Yes, ma’am!! 

So versatile, so sharp, so easy to wear.  I love the idea that there is another option for the ubiquitous flats.  Although this time around I will NOT be wearing them with floaty skirts.  On the yes list: brogues with cargo pants, boyfriend jeans, rolled up khakis and I’m even imagining them in a great work outfit of a pencil skirt and cute cardigan. 

Now, to find the perfect pair…
