The brand’s Creative Director Hedi Slimane shot these striking images of Cara featuring SLP’s ‘La Collection de Paris’ campaign. Although she seems to have placed her acting career on the forefront as of late, it is nice to see the Supermodel dipping back with such a strong campaign.

 

Style + Comfort: Summer Travel Shoes

Fashion, Travel
Since the weather has started to warm up, I’ve decided to do a bit of Spring/Summer shopping online.  After selecting a few key pieces here and there, the last thing on my list was a good pair of shoes for travel. I wanted something comfy that did not sacrifice style whatsoever.
With that being said, here is a short list of 5 stylish, yet comfy shoes. These are perfect for travel or just as a go-to during the warm months–

1. Superga

The classic canvas Superga. These are reminiscent of the Chuck Taylor, but way more comfy.  The fabric is breathable and the inner sole contains a cushion footbed.  These are destined to be your favorite walking sneaker. It’s also available in many different colors, including some cool brand collaborations.

2. Nike

I think Nike ID is such a brilliant and fun way to get a pair of customized sneakers.  Their most recent Nike ID offering is the Air Max Zero, which is known for being lightweight and comfortable.  Soar, Green Glow, and Cool Grey are at the top of my list of favorite core colors.

3. Gurkee

Gurkee rope sandals are a personal favorite. Not only are they handmade in the USA, but they are also a Vegan product.  They offer a variety of fun styles to choose from.  Being that they are salt water resistant, I’ve worn these to the beach and in the water several times.  Also, no need to worry about how to clean them, they are machine washable.

4. Tod’s

I wanted to add one Luxury footwear brand into the mix.  Tod’s is best known for their Gommino drivers. Season after season, they continue to offer this classic shoe in different colors, styles, and leathers.  I own a pair myself, and can attest to the fact that these are top-of-line when it comes to comfort.  They hug your foot and have the perfect amount of support.

5. Teva

Teva is a sandals company that is known for their comfort and utilitarian style.  They offer a style called the Terra Float under the Float Lite Collection.  These styles are not only stylish, but practical.  The thick lightweight foam sole will help you to conquer any adventure.

Spotlight: Gianvito Rossi

Spotlight

Gianvito Rossi has always been one of my favorite luxury footwear designers, and this year marks the 10th anniversary of the brand’s launch. As the son of famed shoe designer Sergio Rossi, Gianvito was blessed with the knowledge of footwear design prior to starting his own brand. He has now made a name for himself with his classic, modern, sexy and sophisticated designs. Below are a few of my favorites from this current season. These staples are a perfect transition into Spring/Summer.
