Seychelles Footwear: Instagram Daily Happenings

The weekend jig starts early in this office. A space where creativity is rewarded and innovation runs rampant.  A group of hard-working folks  who love to laugh, eat, take pictures and play dress up with our shoes. Here's a snapshot of all the fun we've been having in the past few weeks through Instagram! 

The spectacular view from our NY showroom • Candy colored bikes standing outside our Seychelles Shoe Closet located inside Ivana Helsinkis NYC Concept Shop • Adrienne rocking our 'Hydrangea' heel in bright denim •  School children walking past The Metropolitan Museum of Art • A glimpse inside the Seychelles NYC showroom • A funky necklace paired with black and white stripes adorns one of our showroom mannequins  • Boot hangers radiating in the skylight of our NYC showroom • 

Party on the Best Coast.

So the normal conundrum faced by many a fashionista is which city does it better; Los Angeles or NYC? While there are great arguments for both sides; we're remaining neutral and celebrating both tomorrow at two separate but equally fabulous event soirees.


New Yorkers stroll over to NoLita and check out our new Seychelles shoe closet at the Ivana Helsinki NYC concept shop on Elizabeth Street. There will be chocolate, prosecco, shoes and some of our Seychelles insiders to meet, so don't miss out!


Angelenos get on over to Anthropologie at The Grove for a meet and greet Designer Showcase, where you can rub elbows and talk fashion with the creative minds that make it all possible.


Are you as excited as we are?? Get there, snap pics, share them and then let's compare notes on how much fun it was on Wednesday. xx

femme du jour: Tina Chow

This week we're enamored with the style of the one and only Tina Chow. Tina Chow was a model and style icon during the 1980s. A member of the NYC elite, she was close friends with Andy Warhol, Manolo Blahnik and Jean Michel Basquiat. Tina was born Bettina Louise Lutz, daughter of a German father and Japanese mother. In 1972, she married Michael Chow, owner of the Mr. Chow restaurant chain. She and Michael were among NYC's biggest celebrities, andwhere she rubbed elbows with many artists and creatives. Tragically, Tina died in 1992 at the age of 41. Tina's grace and completely original look continue to inspire us.

Seychelles Dream Closet Vol. 3: Mary & Michelle Mangiliman

We're happy to announce the third installment in our Dream Closet Series featuring Mary and Michelle Mangiliman, the stylish sisters behind one of our favorite Brooklyn boutiques, Dalaga. Named “Best Dresses” by New York Magazine and Brooklyn’s #1 Classic Boutique by Refinery29, Dalaga was the first retail store front to open on the now thriving Franklin Street. Always the forefront of style, Mary and Michelle offer an expertly curated selection of clothing and accessories. We went behind-the-scenes with them to talk fashion, family and get their insider wardrobe secrets.

Closet Series Volume 2: Keiko Lynn Groves

We love Keiko Lynn, (who doesn't) and had the pleasure of venturing out to her home in Brooklyn to interview her on what inspires her, where she shops and why she loves NYC. 

As the old adage says, you can tell a lot about someone by what they wear and what's in their closet. Check out Keiko's below as she stars in our latest installment of the Seychelles Dream Closet series.

These Boots Are Made for Walkin'

I'm finally home in Los Angeles after my month long travel schedule! I must say that Seychelles saved my feet the last few weeks. The Safari Boots kept my feet dry in rainy Boston, were the most comfortable walking shoes in New York, and kept me warm in windy Chicago. These boots really are perfect for any type of fall weather you might encounter. Plus the amount of compliments you will receive doesn't hurt!

A typical day during my New York trip included playing with Keiko's cat Vester. As you can see from the photos below, we became quite good friends during my stay.

New York Photo Diary

I've been in New York for the past week, and I couldn't be happier to be back in the big apple. I arrived last Thursday just in time for Fashion's Night Out, and I have another week here before I head out to Chicago. Here are some snapshots from my trip so far.

1. Fashion's Night Out at Elie Tahari with my friends Kristy and Kim.

3. I had the incredible Rotisserie Duck dinner at Momofuku.

4. I went to visit my friend Eddie at his new Baohaus location and tried the new Breakfast Bao and Oyster Po Bao. The Oyster is definitely my new favorite!

5. Stopped by Soho House to check out the Wildfox Couture presentation.

6. I co-hosted a birthday dinner for my friend Keiko! Happy Birthday!

Seychelles Night Out.

Anna Wintour's brainchild, Fashion's Night Out was a huge success again last night. Launched as a way to make fashion a little less serious and more light-hearted, the event is now a worldwide phenomenon. (Does Anna ever misstep??)


We partook in a little city called Manhattan. Our lovely ladies strolled, danced and paraded around SOHO wearing hats fashioned with some of our newest Fall styles. We had a blast, they had a blast, you had a blast, all in the name of fashion. It's essentially the perfect evening. 


Did you see us? If so we want to know all about it. Connect with us on Facebook and Twitter and send us your images and street shots. Let's keep the party going.
