A pair of penny loafers is a classic item worth, well, saving your pennies for. Dave's choice this week is an indulgent, made-to-order pair from Rancourt & Co. for $260. I prefer my classics mixed with a bit of whimsy, especially in the form of this light blue pair from Tod's for $335. Yes, both are expensive, but the cost per wear should be manageable.

Save or Splurge?

Springtime Saturdays mean one thing: the start of the farmers' market. Bring home your goodies in one of these produce-inspired totes. Try the citrus print bag ($55) from Aldo for an affordable option. If you're ready to splurge, the fruit and veggie tote ($295) from Anya Hindmarch is an equally cute option.

On Bedknobs & Baubles: the citrus print is even more irresistible in this must-have item; Club Monaco launched its e-commerce site today - here are my picks!

Bon Voyage

This afternoon, we head to Chicago in anticipation of tomorrow’s flight to Fort Lauderdale. I’m looking forward to oceanside mornings and afternoons exploring … and absolutely no computer. Although, I’m sure I’ll be on Instagram.

See you next week!

For Women | For Men

As far as I'm concerned, March 1st is the beginning of spring - and that means it's time to don a new spring accessory: sunglasses. Opt for a pair of Ray-Bans with quirky, statement-making arms and leave the classic Wayfarers to him (and borrow them occasionally).

For Women: Printed Classic Wayfarer, Ray-Ban, $160
For Men: New Wayfarer, Ray-Ban, $108.99
