Dieppa Restrepo // Brogues, Oxfords & Loafers // Gentleman Style

By now you all know we are obsessed with Dieppa Restrepo and the designers behind the label, Elisa & Andrea (who are amazingly talented). They give us what we want in a flat shoe- comfort, colour, the perfect shape and cool style. The PENNY loafer (which previously sold out in patent) is back in Patent and Kazan (a textured nubuck) & The DANDY loafer will make it’s debut in Leopard leather! both recently featured in Harpers Bazaar Australia & InStyle Australia. These shoes were made to live in.

Both of these are available for PRE-ORDER (arrival is expected in Sept 2011)…here

NEW LABEL // Jensen-Conroy

After seeing the range in Paris in March we waited in anticipation for the arrival of JENSEN-CONROY (established in 2009). This week we received our first drop from the Brooklyn based duo Wade Jensen and Moire Conroy and ohhh, how we want one of each! Necklaces and bangles that you could look at for hours in appreciation of the craft and texture of materials. Combining non-traditional materials with innovative and unconventional techniques the collection is timeless and alluring. The macrame bangles are our first pic!
