B Brian Atwood

Real vs. Steal – B Brian Atwood Fontanne Suede Colorblock Platform Pumps

by Roseanne on March 31, 2012

I absolutely adore the entire B Brian Atwood collection for several reasons. I appreciate how the collection is true to the label yet is more of an affordable version, without straying from Brian Atwood’s vision. Though I may not be able to purchase this shoe until it hits the sale rack, if it ever does, I cannot fail to express my obsession with it. The colorblocking adds a pop of color juxtaposing a simple pump with a not-so-simple pattern. However, if you don’t want to wait until the next sale, which may never exist in fact, check out the alternative below.

Featured on a previous post, these Steve Madden pumps are making their reappearance except in colorblocking form. The shape is very reminiscent of these Giuseppe Zanotti heels, but the colorblocking is very B Brian Atwood. To mimic the B Brian Atwood look the ankle strap is removable, so you can mix and match the different style this pump boasts. The amalgam of design and inspiration behind this shoe creates an eclectic feel that will last long both regarding wearability and trends.

Heel of the Day – B Brian Atwood Fontanne Platform Pumps

by Irina on January 22, 2012

There’s been quite a buzz around Brian Atwood’s diffusion line B Brian Atwood which features shoe styles half the price of his signature line. Most of the shoes are around the $300-350 mark which, unfortunately, is still a bit out of reach for me, but I might get lucky to get my BA shoe fix when those B Brian Atwood styles go on sale/clearance. Which, again unfortunately, sure won’t happen with these mixed metal platform pumps. Aren’t they just absolutely gorgeous? The shape is close to perfect and the metallic colors in this case complement each other rather than clashing with each other. Instant shoe love!
