Theodora & Callum is the collection known for its travel-inspired scarves, jewelry, shoes and handbags. And though the pieces evoke memories of far-off places like Istanbul, Mykonos, and Capri, the collection fit in quite well last weekend in East Hampton.

It’s about to get a whole lot easier to get your hands on a pair of coveted Fiorentini + Baker boots.

Imagine two unrelated and timeless brands combining their most symbolic elements. Well, this fantasy scenario comes alive in the Missoni for the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star line.

When the thermometer starts topping 100 and not even an iced coffee will do, it’s time to reassess your fashion options. Of course, the heat and its effects can’t always be avoided, so it’s best to do what any girl would: fight back against the sun with shades and hats, cleverly apply bronzer and wear as few clothes as possible.

We mentioned Boxing Kitten’s pattern-crazy bodices and skirts before, but now the brand is coming out with a limited-edition shoe. Designed in collaboration with Osborn, the eco-friendly “Cheeky” shoe (the heel is made from recycled tires) takes the playful tribal patterns of Boxing Kitten and marries them with a summer oxford with open side panels. With only 50 pairs made (and going fast), each shoe is a model in exclusivity, signed by the cobbler that created it.

The warm weather bootie has provided a valuable option for those stuck in not-quite-warm and not-quite-cold spring weather. Mostly covered, except for a peep toe and some side cut-outs, Gucci’s “Clemence” high-heeled platform leads the pack in mossy-taupe leather. The blow of the 4.1-inch heel is softened a bit by a built-in wooden platform, giving the otherwise sleek leather look a slightly rustic feel. The “Clemence” shoe joins an entire arsenal of Gucci Spring 2010 platforms—in utterly wearable greys, blacks, whites and nudes. Available to purchase on the Gucci website, these leg-extending wonder shoes can be worn from sunny LA to dreary New York—provided it’s not raining.
