Sophia-Webster-Spring-2013

There’s been much ado about Sophia Webster ever since she debuted this Spring/Summer 2013 collection with the cutest presentation last September during London Fashion Week. Her designs are playful, whimsical and feminine with an exciting dash of Lisa Frank. 

Since then, several styles have become available online exclusively at Net-A-PorterChloë Moretz also donned a pair of polka-dot sandals on the red carpet.

She has an impressive résumé which included working as Nicholas Kirkwood’s design assistant. Kirkwood acted as Webster’s mentor as well, helping her launch this collection.

In a recent interview with Vogue UK Sophia said, “My shoes are for women who want to express their personality through their shoes and will appreciate and enjoy them.”

You can shop her shoes online at Net-A-Porter and Colette. Also, follow Sophia on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

**Shopbop now carries the Sexy Thing, Sexy Star, Very Sexy!**

I first saw this Cruise 2013 collection for pre-order on Moda Operandi this summer. This collection is beautiful and very wearable. The chic Giovanna Battaglia is a big fan of Aquazzura’s shoes and so is Nina Garcia.

What I love: the colorful snakeskin, soft suede, small laser-cut star details, string tie closures…there are many different styles I love – and want!

My favorite designs: the Amazon (can’t decide between the nude & blue), Very Sexy in blue and the Sexy Star in pink.

I also featured the nude Amazon sandal in my recent shoe crush post.

Look for this collection available online around the end of November. Until then, you can shop the fall collection online at Shopbop, LuisaViaRoma & Saks Fifth Avenue.

Which styles strike your fancy?

I know it’s not even Halloween yet, however, Resort & Cruise 2013 styles are already rolling in! I still plan on posting many more fall styles however I wanted to feature new designs that have caught my eye.

Notes:
One of the most talked about new shoe designers, Sophia Webster, has two new styles available online at Colette. More styles (these are actually Spring 2013) are also arriving at Net-A-Porter very soon.

I seem to always love Alexander Wang’s resort shoes more than any other season…I love the red-hot croc-embossed leather.
