If you go and see it, make sure to be on the lookout!

We're Keeping the Party Going.

Indulge yourself with gifts or start your Christmas shopping for family and friends today and throughout the weekend at Seychellesfootwear.com. 

Seriously so many cute styles to choose from, which one is your favorite?

Black Friday Seychelles style.

POP UP shop Helsinki.

Our Helsinki boots, designed through a collaboration with Finnish designer Ivana Helsinki, walked the runway during NYFW in February. Now they are ready to be worn among the masses. 

Recently our Queen Bee at Seychelles, Sari traveled back to her hometown of Helsinki, Finland and was able to capture our amazing boots featured in Ivana's pop up shop in the city centre. 

If the holidays find you abroad this season, make sure you make a side trip to Helsinki. If not, shop the boots here and know you own a little piece of Seychelles fashion history.

The Civil Wars.

Today we're lauding The Civil Wars. To say we love this band is simply not enough. We had the privilege of seeing them live this past weekend and the show far surpassed our expectations. 

Every once in awhile, you hear, see or experience something that you know is extraordinary. The Civil Wars, live in concert, was definitely one of those defining moments.

Having sung together now for only 3 years after meeting in a song writing session in Nashville, this duo has taken the industry by storm. Their voices blend as if they are coming from the same source. They are old school, talent rich and dress up for the occasion. 

Get to know them with these backstage videos shot on their tour this past Summer.

Glitter Glam.

Add a little glitz to your wardrobe. Go for it, you've earned it. 

Seychelles EXCLAMATION POINT . Seychelles OUT ON THE TOWN

Day to Evening.

Our new ALL DRESSED UP heels are the perfect shoe (and the truth is they are even better in person). Paired with a faux fur jacket and a tunic dress over skinny jeans, this outfit lasts from work meeting to friend's dinner.

Where would you go wearing this?

Be Like Lucy.

 

We love visiting The Selby to get a daily dose of what's happening in other people's lives. They now have taken it one step further and teamed up with ZARA on a video series featuring English bred and NYC based gallerist Lucy Chadwick.

If we were to describe Lucy's world, we would use words like simple, classic, linear and artistic. An artist by trade, her effortless aesthetic is apparent in her NYC apartment, her barn in the woods and pretty much everything she takes part in. 

Instead of feeling the need to hurry and finish, her and her partner have chosen to build from the ground up, take time curating and making the right choices for the spot they've chosen to put their roots down. We should all seek to find our place and do the same.

Factory / Park Series

(left to right: Explorer Boots, Stakeout Boots, Letter Press Heels, Daisy Wheel Heels)

David Amico's FACTORY / PARK SERIES is now up at Ace Gallery in Beverly Hills. This Los Angeles based artist took inspiration from Skid Row and transformed it to create these beautiful abstract paintings. I was inspired to pair up some of his paintings with my favorite fall Seychelles shoes. I can just imagine wearing any of these shoes while visiting the gallery with my friends. The show just started and will be on view through December. This is one art show you should not miss this season!

Tom Ford: Visionaries.

 

Tom Ford's new documentary VISIONARIES premiered on the OWN network in October. It documents his rise and continued success in the various verticals he dances between;  photography, beauty, eyewear, fashion design and movie-making. 

Since his exit from GUCCI in 2004, he has worked to establish his own brand and continues to amaze the masses with his attention to detail, design and overall aesthetic. Simply put, he is and will continue to be a force in the fashion industry for decades to come. 

We love him, can you tell?

Ode to Loulou.

Today we pay tribute to the original muse of haute couture, Loulou de la Falaise. She died November 5th in her home in France, after a year long battle with cancer.  She was 64 and much too young.

Loulou was a fashion pioneer, she challenged the normal standard for women's wear and became the muse and closest confidante of Yves Saint Laurent. She was the first person to inject the Paris collections with bursts of jewelry and solidified the importance of hand crafted baubles as an integral part of each season's collection. She worked for the design house for three decades and will forever be remembered as the inspiration and force behind both YSL and her own label Loulou de la Falaise.

Versace for H&M

The Versace for H&M collection is unveiling itself tonight in New York City with a full fashion presentation and a performance by Prince and Nicki Minaj. We wish we could be there to watch in person but will have to settle for the many pics and blog postings showcasing it's fierceness online tomorrow. One thing you can see, no matter where you are this evening, is the collection in full. 

Slated to hit 300 stores nationwide and online November 17th means for the first time in forever Versace = affordable and accessible. Start taking notes on your favorites and plan on setting the alarm early to get a good spot in line. (both locally and virtually) This collection already has amassed enough buzz to rival its predecessor, Lanvin.  

Are you excited?

100 YEARS OF STYLE/ EAST LONDON

Have you seen this amazing ad campaign showcasing a century of fashion in über cool East London? We could watch it over and over and over. We're partial to the looks from the 1950s, it's so cool to see the cultural changes reflected in the clothes. Which decade is your favorite?

je t'aime la musique: Adanowsky

Adan Jodorowsky, working under the moniker Adanowsky, is a French/Chilean musician who recently caught our attention and we think you'll love his sound as much as we do. He's the son of visionary filmmaker Jodorowsky, so it's no surprise that talent runs in the family. Says T Magazine, "It wasn’t until he left his native Paris for Chile and translated his lyrics from French to Spanish that he and his career started to go places. Lately, he splits his time between Mexico City, Los Angeles, Paris and anywhere the tour for his melancholy new album, 'Amador,' takes him." Recently Adanowsky found a kindred spirit in Devendra Banhart, and the two collaborated on a song and music video.

Listen to the magical sounds of Adonowsky & Devendra Banhart

If you live in LA you have two chances to see Adonowsky this week. Don't miss him!

Winter Wear.

Just because Winter is approaching or already here to stay, doesn't mean you have to shy away from a soft color palette. The key is to dress in layers. 

Our PRIME SUPSECT wedge booties reign perfection with the rest of this ensemble. The look is dressy casual yet it's all in the interpretation.

Happy Friday!

Time Travelling with Beyoncè

This unbelievably fun and clever new video for Beyoncè's Countdown" caught our eye and we just can't get enough of it. The video is a virtual tour of the past five decades of style icons, with nods to everyone from Ann Margaret and Audrey Hepburn to Diana Ross and Andy Warhol, all the way through to Jennifer Beals' unforgettable 1980s look in Flashdance.

How many references did you catch? And which of Beyoncè's looks is your favorite?
