Oh, the weather outside is frightful…but don’t let it keep you cooped up inside all winter long. New York City is packed with restaurants, bars, stores, and lounges that only heat up as the temperature drops. So swap your fuzzy slippers for some sexy booties and lets take this season by storm!
From lobster tempura and saketinis to a revamped meatpacking hotspot, check out Sam’s NYC guide on where to warm up, wind down, and survive the winter in style!
For an après ski setting right here in the city…
1. Hudson Lodge—–356 West 58th Street—-While being transported back to Aspen, try the Nutella Grilled Cheese and Aztec Cold Hot Chocolate for unexpected satisfaction.

For a trendy meal with delicious sushi…
2. The General—–199 Bowery—-From the owners of Catch, comes a new interpretation of modern Asian. Get the firecracker crab claws and kung pao black sea bass.

For a classic Italian meal in a low key setting…
3. Emilio’s Ballato—-55 East Houston—-If you want to feel like you are sitting at a café in Rome, try the homemade meatballs and chicken parmigiana.

If you are craving loud music and dancing…

They say that when it comes to relationships, ‘opposites attract’. While this may or may not be true for matters of the heart, it is definitely true for matters of the sole. Take, for example, our new spring collection. In every new style we’ve brought together inspirations from both sides of the spectrum to revamp our favorite trends with a completely new look. From 50’s retro with a futuristic update, to animal prints with a sporty edge, our spring styles seamlessly meld contrasting aesthetics in an unexpected but stylish marriage.
Check out some examples of opposites attracting in our new Spring collection.
Flash Forward
Sleek mirrored metallics stand out against soft pastels. It’s David Bowie meets Brigitte Bardot in this modern take on minimalism.

Tribe Vibe
The reoccurring bohemian trend tells an entirely new story with a mixture of eye-catching global–inspired designs and traditional handcrafted detailing.

Luxe Warrior
Goddesses adorned with bold gold jewelry meld with warriors dressed in exotic skins to lend the jungle look an unexpected elegance.

Retro Americana
Candy-colored pastels flirt with distressed vintage western to give 50’s femininity a soft, yet rugged edge.

Game Theory
Game-ready sportswear gets glammed-up in high fashion details scoring some major style points.

While there is no denying the sexy allure of a sky-high stiletto, some days just demand you reach for a shoe that’s made for walking. Whether you’re running errands around town, or signing up for a long night on the dance floor, there are some times that you need to choose comfort in order to keep your dogs from barking.

Yet, despite what most people tend to believe, choosing a comfortable flat doesn’t mean you need to say goodbye to style. Just look at the flats of our new Spring collection. From studded embellishments to exotic materials, these no-to-low heeled silhouettes are just as chic and sexy as their high-standing counterparts. They bring style and comfort together into in one dangerously fierce little package.
Meet your new partners in crime:

Buckle up in the “Betty”; A sophisticated flat with a charming toe detail.

Meet the “Maria”; a bow-adorned ballet with a fashion-forward scalloped edge.

Make way for the “Leighton”! Exotic textures and teardrop cutouts gives your spring style an ultra-chic breath of fresh air.

The “Felicia” kicks it up a notch with bold new colors from sparkling Black Glitter to flirty Peach Melba Floral.

Though many footwear trends seem to just come and go, there is one timeless silhouette that has clearly stood the test of time: the high black boot. Luxe, sophisticated, and endlessly versatile, this cold-weather essential has the ability to give just about any outfit an ultrachic boost.
Our version of the high black boot is no exception. With its slick leather finish and knee-high shaft, the “Tucker” boot enhances your style and elongates your legs, making your workday to weekend ensemble look sexy and polished.

Check out some different ways that we’ve styled the “Tucker” to give your basic winter looks a dose of dangerous chic.
City Slicker
Pair tie-dye jeans and an oversized sweater with these sleek platform boots to give your comfy-cool outfit a bit of attitude. Finish it off with a faux-fur vest, our “Oriana” crossbody, and funky jewelry for the ultimate rocker-luxe look.

Go-Go Girly
Play with proportions by balancing a long-sleeved mini dress with the Tucker’s knee-high silhouette. Add some intrigue to the ensemble with patterned tights and the “Adele” studded collar jacket.

Work It
For a professional and polished look, slip on the Tucker after layering a fitted blazer and our “Giselle” tote bag over a sheath dress and opaque stockings.

Have a more casual office? Swap the dress for formal pants, a fun tee, and our “Dakota” crossbody bag.

Now that we’ve showed you some different ways that we wear the Tucker, slip your feet into a pair of your own, and show us how you style these undeniably chic footwear staples on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram!
