The shoes on the runways of Milan and Paris: Boots and high-cuts

Of course the clothes were the stars of Milan and Paris FW but there's obviously more that deserve attention, one of which are the shoes. Mind you, there were a lot that I really liked, so I'm breaking this post into three parts. First off are the boots and other high-cut footwear.

I'm loving the rugged look here. And the first pair here are some really high boots. Awesome!

Dolce & Gabbana
Consistent with its Victorian-inspired collection, the footwear were no different. The result was a mishmash of elegant, rugged, and fanciful.

Bottega Veneta
Lots of good shoes featured, mostly loafers and lace-ups. But when they did boots, they sure made 'em sky-high.

How about a boot that looks like it's got another boot inside? Or something with an extra tongue? Metal braces, anyone? These designers got them all covered.

FRAGRANCE | Green Cedar EDT by Bench: An environmentally-conscious offering from the Philippines' premier retail brand

Image
A few weeks ago, I found myself wandering inside Bench Powerplant Mall. And what else would catch my eye but two fragrances by their lonesome twosome, positioned far away from the rest of the brand's scent offerings. They're Basil & Neroli and Green Cedar , both EDTs and part of the  Bench Better Made line . The frags are purported to be vegan and cruelty-free. They come in 125ml dark brown glass bottles and brown paper cylindrical boxes. Nice packaging there except for the cheap, plastic cap. No big deal, though, since they're just Php 428 apiece.

Man of style: Steven Tyler

What? Yes, Steven Tyler. He obviously does not fit the bill of the suited type or the GQ man but hey, the man's got style. And he's got swag, baby! Since joining American Idol , Tyler, together with fellow judge Jennifer Lopez, have glammed up the singing competition with their flair for fashion ( forget Randy; he's hopeless ). And I am more than happy to wait for what he's gonna wear each episode.
