Accessories: Eddie Borgo RTW Spring 2014

Eddie Borgo's spring collection is an eclectic mix of interesting elements. This is what Lauren Carabelli of editorialist.com had to say about the new offerings.

Borgo’s Spring/Summer 2014 pieces champion the symbols and essence of feminism by powerfully displaying them among quintessentially masculine military emblems. Charms and ribbon collide with impeccable, geometric construction resulting in an amped up androgyny that can’t come soon enough.

Creepers? Jeepers!!

O.k, so the title is corny, but creepers is not the name that I want associated with my new shoes (HA!). Nordstrom describes them as creepers, while others refer to them as sneakers or wedge sneakers. I think I like that better. My initial thought was to buy something other than an oxford or loafer for fall and winter, like Jeffrey Campbell's Céline look-a-like, but I wanted total foot coverage. Sure I have boots, but my aim was for something a little different.

I was also sold on the fact that they are black and white and will work well with many casual pieces. Afraid that they would look clod hopper-ish, I was really pleased when they arrived today. I plan to "take them out for a spin" tomorrow....I'm adding a moto jacket (red or black) and jeans.
