We stopped by the Black Orchid Denim showroom yesterday to preview their latest, and were immediately drawn to the refreshing resort wear quality of their tropical and floral printed denim shorts. Visions of sailing on a summer afternoon in a breezy tank and a pair of these cut-offs completely took over, despite the slushy, snowy conditions right outside the window. We’d say that means these shorts achieved their desired impact! Scroll to grab a pair for yourself.

Ashley Olsen & Nicole Richie were both spotted in similar winter outfits in Paris and New York respectively, featuring enormous faux-fur black jackets and variations on the classic black skinny jean. Ashley wore a pair of Textile Elizabeth and James Johnny Jeans in Onyx (score a similar pair at the link) while Nicole wore a pair of J Brand Leather Leggings. We assume they didn’t coordinate across the time zones, but both looked super-chic (and super warm).

The pre-fall collection included a fresh selection of pastel hues in pinks, blues, and greys with prints like feathers and florals. Floral jeans reversed to a medium blue jean wash, which, when cuffed, turned into what we professionally describe as the cutest-jeans-ever. The Vintage Mercury 2013 collection featured beautiful metallic jeans, from champagne to pewter. Picking a favorite? Pretty much impossible.

Justin Theroux was spotted wearing a pair of Balmain denim biker jeans, a well-worn leather jacket, and some black boots recently. The ensemble possessed just enough rugged appeal for the Rock Of Ages star to wear out and about while still keeping warm. Functional and stylish is always a win-win.

Ashley Olsen was spotted in an airport in France wearing a very conspicuous green fur coat and a pair of TEXTILE Elizabeth and James black cropped skinny jeans (link will bring you to a similar pair). When we talk travel fashion we usually recommend jeggings and an oversized sweater, but the invisible Olsen twins obviously have their own way of doing just about everything.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was spotted looking every bit as perfect as usual in a pair of leather leggings that added a massive dose of sex appeal to her look (as if she needs any more of that). Specifically, she was wearing Helmut Lang Plonge Leather Leggings. She paired them with a simple knit crew neck sweater, because you really don’t need to jazz ‘em up. They’re stunning on their own. These bottoms promise to add elongation and a slimming effect to all who wear them, even if they’re not super model material, so grab a pair ASAP if you’re into that.

Spring is the perfect time to refresh your shoe collection and add some interest to the mix. Whether the warm weather will find you hosting gatherings in the park with your friends or embracing downtown New York strolls on the regular, make sure you do all of these things with style. The made-by-hand men’s shoe line n.d.c. has your back (and your feet, obviously). We highlight our favorite pairs from the spring lookbook below.

Our favorite picks…
Espadrilles: Take a stroll along the French Riviera in the 1960s with these flexible, relaxed and easy espadrilles. Made with the flexible and light ‘Strobel’ construction (where the upper and insole are stitched toether), the shoes are slip-lasted and stitched to the leather outsole with natural yute trimming the edge.

Foundation: Reminiscent of 1960′s London’s city-gent style, these elegantly shaped rejuvenated classics belong in every man’s wardrobe.
Faderless Toecup Son

Goodyear: The Goodyear line goes back to the beginning of the n.d.c. story when designer Enrique washed his pair of n.d.c. Goodyear brogues in his home washing machine after deciding that they looked just a little too perfect. The esult was like nothing that has been seen before on the market: beaten-up, washed shoes with a whole personality of their own.
