Next Level: Pink & Red
Pink and red are not supposed to hang together—they kind of have a Capulet-Montague situation going. But, done right, man, can sparks fly. Four classy-cool ways to go. —erica
LEVEL I: How adorbs would these Loeffler Randall sandals be with rolled-up chinos?
LEVEL II: God, those blush-y hues. Reed Krakoff, you know what you’re doing.
LEVEL III: The cut-outs on this Mara Hoffman dress just contribute to the color-blocking masterfulness.
LEVEL IV: Subtle? Heck no. But this Venessa Arizaga necklace sure is fly.

Weather Vain: Miami, Florida - 84 With a Chance of Thunderstorms
Party in the city where the heat is on…or where it’s pouring down rain. EITHER WAY. Here’s what to wear in Mee-ah-mee on a day like today. (Keely! We miss you! Come back!) —erica
Clockwise from top left:
+ A Loeffler Randall clutch, as fun as drinks at The Freehand.
+ The sort of so-easy Raquel Allegra dress that’s happy to live in a suitcase.
+ A Rag & Bone hat, protecting your hair from any T-storming—or, if the clouds part, the sun along the Wynwood Art Walk.
+ Rain sandals! Brought to you by Melissa.
+ Take this clunky-cool Jennifer Fisher bracelet to Joe’s Stone Crab or Yardbird, and don’t worry about getting messy.

Next Level: Color-Block Sandals
Forget black and nude. And metallics, too. Deck out your feet in colors straight out of the candy aisle. Here’s how to make it happen. —erica
LEVEL I: These Sam Edelman guys are as cheery as Jordan almonds.
LEVEL II: Sigerson Morrison goes all the way with the red footbed.
LEVEL III: Loeffler Randall’s purple and coral situation: a totally normal color combo (if you’re a four-year-old girl).
LEVEL IV: Whoa, K. Jacques. Get a load of this double-sided neon action.

Next Level: Crazy Snakeskin
What’s even cooler than snakeskin these days? Versions in nutso colors and motifs that look like they’re from Tralfamadore. Four ways to dive right in. —erica
LEVEL I: This damn pretty pop o’ plum, by Leighelena, looks super-classy against black sweaters.
LEVEL II: B Brian Atwood embraces the only good thing about an oil slick: the hue.
LEVEL III: Somehow, snakes and spots don’t look cuckoo in the hands of Loeffler Randall.
LEVEL IV: These Messeca boots: It’s like Rayanne Graff when to Ponyland.

Weather Vain: Bogotá, Colombia - 77 and Clear
People are making us all kinds of jealous with their warm-weather travels right now. And while we’re personally very upset with anyone lucky enough to head to the Colombian capital, we’re willing to offer you our professional support—and a packing list. —erica
Clockwise from top left:
+ A Lemlem dress that doubles as a cover-up when you head to the beaches at Tayrona National Park.
+ This bracelet by K/LLER: jazzy enough for dinner at Mi Viejo, overlooking La Candelaria’s so-stunning square.
+ To keep your CCs and pesos in order, a mini Clare Vivier wallet.
+ The sort of Erica Weiner necklace that could go with basically every outfit in your suitcase.
+ Loeffler Randall shoes that are most definitely made for walking (and exploring Macarena—the ‘hood, not the dance).
+ Super sunglasses to deal with such annoyingly bright and clear weather.
+ The perfect pared-down travel bag from Eayrslee. Bonus: It can be worn around your waist (as long as you don’t call it a fanny pack).
Head this way for more “Weather Vain!” Hot (and cold) stuff.

Next Level: Pointy Flats
We’re either getting old or tired (or both!), but it’s getting harder and harder to step into heels these days. And there’s just something about an angular flat that just feels serious and grown-up in a making-things-happen way. Here, four pairs worth trying on. —erica
LEVEL I: Ridiculously easy, super classic, and supremely French-y—all Marais USA’s scene.
LEVEL II: If you’ve seen these Jenni Kayne guys before, that’s because the whole internet is obsessed with them.
LEVEL III: Opening Ceremony is never too serious. Here, a coppery heart lightens up the means-business shape.
LEVEL IV: Tomato-red snakeskin? Loeffler Randall says, “Why the hell not?!”

Next Level: Polka-Dot Shoes
We’ve been feeling a polka-dot for some time now, but lately our affections are headed south…to our toes. Here, four pairs that hit the spot. —erica
LEVEL I: The dark burgundy backdrop (one of our fave colors for fall, BTdubs) makes these Loeffler Randall flats pretty low-key.
LEVEL II: Opening Ceremony took a classic boot and made it look like something straight out of a Lichtenstein.
LEVEL III: These Brian Atwood pumps are fit for some cartoon character. I just can’t put my finger on which one.
LEVEL IV: Oh, hail, why not combine polka-dots and metallics? That’s what Stine Goya’s asking with these platform oxfords.
