Sidewalk Style: Bright Lights, Big Jewelry

Share | Print

This week, we stop a design professional whose skills translate to her closet.

By Rachel Cothran   Published Tuesday, July 07, 2009

Valli Ravindran, 28
Creative director, PBS

What she’s wearing:
Metallic flats and top from Urban Outfitters, skinny jeans from Armani, Forever 21 necklace.

How would you describe your style?
“Eclectic. I come from India, so I’m exposed to a lot of Indian designers. I like a little bit of funky design. I’m not afraid of colors. I like big, bright jewelry. In my office, many people ask me, ‘How many kinds of jewelry do you have?’ If I’m wearing something plain, I wear some really patterned, big jewelry. If I’m wearing textured or patterned clothes, I try to wear minimal jewelry.”

Where do you shop?
“Online at Asos.com. It’s a company from the United Kingdom. They have a lot of up-and-coming designers, or they model the clothes of celebrities. So if you buy something, it’ll show you how Katie Holmes wore it. I’m a designer, so I like the look of it, too. In Washington, I go to Urban Outfitters, and I like Fresh next to Georgetown Cupcake. All of my jeans are from G-Star Raw. The fit is amazing—their destroyed jeans are awesome, and I think their short jackets are so cool. I think I’m fascinated by UK fashion.”

Ugg Australia has recruited designers like Manolo Blahnik, Carlos Falchi, Rebecca Minkoff, Rafe pictured,and more to design high-end versions of the brand’s trademark boots for its seventh annual Art & Sole auction.<br><br><br>I have to assume these will be filed under unaffordable (which is good - more money for St. Jude!), but I’ll still be going to the <a href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com//">pickyouruggs.com</a> Web site on December 1 to window shop and see what these designers have cooked up.<br><br>I am trying to picture what I would do to make these high end... Real Italian leather? A pearl brooch? Other expensive ingredients and sparkles? Maybe the differences won’t be that extreme, but I hope each designer puts his personal touch on the shoe. I’m certain at the very least you’ll be able to pick out which Uggs came from Betsey Johnson (<a href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com//">UGG Classic tall 5815 boots</a>, please!).<br><br>The event is likely to inspire as many interesting Ugg knockoffs as there are regular Ugg knockoffs, so it is possible we’ll see something like this around town next year. It’s not only a great event for charity but probably also a good move to keep Uggs alive and relevant... especially with the number of people who’d like to see them disappear for good!<a href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com//">UGG boots on sale</a>!<br><br>I will of course keep wearing my Uggs because A) I have them and B) they are warm, but if your kid asks Santa for Where the Wild Things Are <a href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com//">UGG boots</a>... I feel for ya.

Love ’em... they are so cute and comfy!!!!
I’ve read a few reviews where people are saying to order a size too small, or rather a size below their regular size.... this I do not agree with, I’m a size 9, I ordered a size 9,

and they fit perfectly, an 8 would have for sure been too small, so I would reccomend that you stick with your usual shoe size when ordering these boots...
p.s. this is my 3rd pair of <a href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com">UGG boots</a>, I just can’t get enough of ’em hahaha. My first pair I ordered from the actual UGG

website <a href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com">ugg boots sale</a>, and I was charged over $80 in shipping, my second pair (<a

href="http://www.pickyouruggs.com">ugg boots classic tall</a>) I ordered from pickyouruggs.com and the shipping was free, and the boots were just as great as the ones

I ordered from the UGG site. So if you’re lookin’ to buy some ADORABLE UGGS I would say go for it and do it from <a
