Brian Atwood Alima Colorblock Neon Pumps, $795 via Net-a-Porter

We’ve already discussed how excited Brian Atwood apparently is for warm weather to come back around, and if you doubted his enthusiasm for even a split second, the Brian Atwood Alima Colorblock Neon Pumps should nip that in the bud immediately. They may not come with their own personal straw hats like his last pair of sandals, but this design does come with enough eye-searing neon to melt any snow on the ground around your feet on contact.

Brian Atwood Mojito Sandals, $1452 via Bergdorf Goodman

It’s not even February yet, but that doesn’t stop designers from rushing their pieces to retail to get us salivating for the new season (and new shoes, of course). Brian Atwood’s footwear is always known for its exuberance and joie de vivre, so early (very early) spring is often when his shoes look most appropriate; they reflect the internal mindsets of all of us, impatiently anticipating the arrival of sun and fun.

B Brian Atwood Strappy Cage Sandals, $400. B Brian Atwood Glitter Platforms, $350. Both via Neiman Marcus.

Although the B Brian Atwood Strappy Cage Sandals and B Brian Atwood Glitter Platform Pumps don’t technically have anything to do with each other (except for being from the same brand, obviously), it seemed like a good idea to combine them in a joint post, if only for expediency’s sake. Read More…

In the past, every Brian Atwood collection has brought with it a few gasps of delight, a few grunts of disapproval and a few furrowed brows of confusion. I may not love every shoe he puts out, but no one can argue that Atwood doesn’t pack each and every piece with a ton of personality; if more brands did that, we’d all be happier shoe lovers.

Brian Atwood Paramour High Heels Boots, $500 in red haircalf or $450 in burgundy suede. Both via ShopBop.

Diffusion lines are tricky. The price point has to be far enough away from the main line to draw two sets of different (but still similar) customers, but the look has to be luxurious enough to not cheap the mother brand by association. Read More…

Brian Atwood Embroidered Heel Pumps, $2114 via Bergdorf Goodman

It isn’t often that we feature a shoe shot from behind in a post, rather than shot from the front or side, but occasionally a design is so magnificent when viewed from the tail end that it requires a deviation from the norm. Ladies, I think you’ll all agree that the Brian Atwood Embroidered Heel Pump is one such shoe, and if you don’t, I suggest an emergency trip to the eye doctor. Read More…

Brian Atwood Platform Pumps, $995 via Nordstrom

Or maybe it’s three trends in one? Pumps are supposed to be the new big shoe, after all.

Anyway, it’s at least two. Python is bigger than huge for fall, and bright accents have been an official accessories Thing for almost a full year. The Brian Atwood Python Platform Pumps (if you know their official name, let us know) manage to hit on both of those important looks and still be a great, wearable shoe at the same time. Read More…

B Brian Atwood Taurasa Ankle Boot, $550 via Saks

Who doesn’t love a diffusion line? Nobody, that’s who. Brian Atwood is a TalkShoes favorite, and he only stands to become even more beloved with the release of his lower-priced collection, B Brian Atwood. If there’s anything the shoe market needs, it’s more hotness that falls into the $600-or-less range.

With the exception of one boot that costs an inexplicable $995, that’s exactly what this line is. Read More…
