Trend Alert: Oxford Flats

bbopener090803_250

These Oxford flats have been in fashion since late July of this year and is a variation of the celebrated heeled Oxford shoes from two years ago.

Now less chunkier, more colorful, more casual and of course, flat… this season’s Oxfords are for those who have already grown tired of the ballet slippers. But in my opinion, these shoes aren’t as classic as the latter. It should, however, go weel with those who have an edgier and more androgynous style or those who do not prefer dressing down as an option. These shoes demands attention big time. Oxfords would look really great with pants, which is a no-brainer choice of clothing for the colder season.

Pictured here, via the New York Mag’s style section, are Oxfords from Opening Ceremony ($322), 3.1 Phillip Lim ($410), Topshop ($125), and Kaight ($99).

Celebrity turned designer Victoria Beckham has unveiled this season’s choices for Victoria Beckham collection, her very own dress line in this 75-minute video ad. The concept of the ad is quite extra-ordinary, in an odd and strange way.

The commercial was filmed in the Notting Hill neighborhood at London, one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks.

Victoria Beckham’s Fall collection is now available at Bergdorf Goodman and also online via Net-A-Porter. Her clothes are very stylish, with many of the items sold out before the season is over.
