As the winter lingers on in NYC, and we dream of days of open toe shoes, a light bronze tone to any or all of our human flesh and a happy hour on an outdoor patio–we have taken to making lists to get us through the last few weeks of winter.

Our current list is perhaps our broadest. Our top ten most obsessed about items, people, places, things or objects. In addition to shoes and boots these are the things we are currently obsessed with. Please leave in the comments a note about your current obsession–because we need some inspiration. In no specific order ours are:

1. Coconut Water. (How did we survive without this?)

2. Keyboard Cat.

3. GILT GROUP.

4. Chatroulette.com

5. Mondo-Shredders from CMRTYZ

6. Anything from UK based clothing label MOTEL.

available at Jeffrey Campbell client www.shopnastygal.com,

stay tuned as JC works on several new projects with team MOTEL.

7. Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros.

8. Little Wayne.

I mean…it’s a guilty pleasure.

Not having a pair of clogs in your spring arsenal is like not having a few spare cases of coconut water in your fridge for a Saturday morning. All parallels aside–unless you live under a rock, you now know that CLOGS are literally blowing up the web as a top trend for SPRING 2010.

The Jeffrey Campbell CHARLI has been selling out everywhere and now, the first companion is out and selling just as well. With the entire Jeffrey Campbell team working on more product and new versions of clogs at every height and shape, you can view the KARL at www.jildor.com now. Woven fabrid and traditional wood bottom keep the look classic—and also fresh—great colors and natural tones make the KARL an easy match to all your spring clothes, and looks.

Get your KARL on!

Jeffrey Campbell brand specialist Ty McBride made the rounds earlier this week to a few parties, events and NYC hotspots in an attempt to put his winter hybernation phase behind him (all bear puns not intended). First stop–the OAKazine launch party at spin. Jeffrey Campbell client, Oak (www.oaknyc.com)  knows how to throw a party–and by hosting the launch of their newest magazine at SPIN in mindtown, Oak once again proved that irony really is dead.  (shop Oak, or see the zine online now at www.oaknyc.com)

While at this event we ran into a favorite blogger of the JC office–Karen Blanchard of wheredidugetthat.com fame. It was a total crush fest. Shown here is JC’s McBride photographed with Blanchard’s pal Tay.  Later that night the trio again bumped into each other at the hotel rivington on the LES where style blog  www.stylelikeu.com was hosting a night of serious fash, cute kids, and amazing tunes. Make sure to check www.style
