These tri-tone Tabitha Simmons ‘Bailey’ platform sandals couldn’t look any more perfect. Shoes with socks are suddenly glamorous!

I’m convinced that Miroslava Duma can pull off any look. Military inspired outfits are my favorite on her, and it’s not only because she’s Russian. Her petite figure and personal mystique lends itself well to sharp, tailored outfits and smart hats. Not many people could pull off the full Burberry runway look, complete with hat and fur. But hey, that’s why she’s a street-style icon, right?!
