Toga Pulla Buckled Slide

An investment pair, this slide from Toga Pulla is dressy, elevated, yet transitional. Looks equally as great dressed down with denim and a well-loved tee as they to dressed up the likes of Ganni’s leopard print maxi skirt and a Porter bag.

New Balance 990GL6

New Balance are a vital brand in your rotation. A generous offering in terms of styles and colours, there's something for everyone. The long awaited sixth version (or 'V6') of New Balance's much-loved 990 is a contemporary update on he all-time fan favourite. Perhaps the most progressive update of the 990 we've seen in many years; this one was always bound to split opinion. But a modern take on an iconic in the OG colourway? Obviously it's a bag fat yes from us.
