ss13 - a season of blues

From top, Prada (Saks); Lanvin, Balenciaga, Margiela (all from MrPorter) and last but not least, Louboutin (Louboutin's online shop). What's your pick then?

ss13 acne metallic askin shoe

Another gorgeous shoe from Acne for Spring Summer 2013. As you would have realised that one of the hottest trends this season is metallic. This shoe just fits the trend immaculately. Well crafted in Italy in calf leather of smooth and coarse textures, slightly 'worn off' effect on the shiny surface to make it not so 'fake', I believe this shoe is a confirmed hot item of this season. Acne Studio online shop is selling now.

ss13 marni

Saks.com now is carrying this solid shiny coffee color lace-up shoes with thick sole. If you have too much black shoes, this color could be perfectly a good alternative.

SS13 kenzo boots in colored sole

After the 'revamp' done by the team from Opening Ceremony for Kenzo, this brand is getting better and fashion forward! I am never a Kenzo fan but since SS12, it has changed my perception. This Kenzo Ronnie boots in interesting colored sole is eye catchy. I love the color combination. Available now at HuntingAndCollecting

ss13 McQ slipon

McQ slipon with insects and plants. Very spring summer, and made in Italy! SSENSE is selling now.

more ss13 pierre hardy shoes

TheCorner is now carrying these new season Pierre Hardys. They are surely able to prepare you for the colourful spring summer 2013!

ss13 prada shoes

More interesting shoes from Prada are emerging in this coming spring summer 2013. Apparently, the popular levitate will emerge again with different colors. The old-school feel runway sandals will predominate and my heart is already nailed on the brown trim one. The grey levitate with kilt is attractive too! You could now preorder from Saks.

pierre hardy cube in red ss13

This Pierre Hardy in signature red cubes is simply amazing! I have retired my black and white cube pair and I think this could be a really good replacement. Available now at Colette.

ss13 balenciaga sneakers

Not very sure they all belong to the new season collection of SS2013. Loud, vibrant colors are my to my liking and yes the blue one is really love at first sight. Barneys is selling them presently. 

ss13 margiela replica austria trainer in gun metal

The most popular shoes of Maison Martin Margiela, the Australia replica trainer. New season new gun metal look. Gorgeous. SS13 is really a metallic season. Available now at Forward.

ss13 valentino trainers

We are expecting the dominance of trainers in SS13. The Valentino trainer especially the camo version is extremely gorgeous, in the typical classic trainer cut and nice color blocking body, ornamented with the Valentino rockstud. So far I only see Antonioli selling this and they are open for pre-order now. I believe other online shops will sell these too, just a matter of time. We shall wait and see.

ss13 balenciaga arena low cut sneakers

The new season Balenciaga 'Arena' lowcut sneakers are now available at MrPorter. I like the yellow version but not sure whether the shape of the shoe will fit me well. The eccentric huge tongue part is quite tricky, hard to judge from the pictures. I might have seen the similar ones in the past seasons but could not recall much.Shall wait and see...

ss13 pierre hardy hitops

Perhaps you would say this is getting boring but to me, it is a signature and a classic. I always like Pierre Hardy shoes as they are well crafted, quirky and sufficient to make a blatant, if not, very representative fashion statement. I heart loud shoes, and Pierre Hardy always fits my criteria. I am not saying everything from PH is fabulous but there are always something to want from Pierre Hardy. For those who intend to start getting a pair of PH, start with the piping design that is so typical and epitomic of PH. Matchesfashion is selling these shoes from SS13 now.

ss13 mcq shoes

Some McQ shoes from Spring Summer 2013 are out in TheCorner. I love the shiny black leather pair. I like this design from McQ but I have not found the 'right' color. The black might be the one. As for the blue suede version, it is very similar to the one in AW12 but the design at the ankle portion has been modified.
