Big hello from Australia

Not a huge Toms fan. Of course, the first one might not be. But it looks like it.
The second one is pretty sweet.
Love the pop of color those shoes give to an otherwise ordinary look.
oh I adore his outfit! the way he combines the shoes with the pants is amazing! clashes in color can make and outfit so much more interesting, thanks for sharing its very inspirational :)
xx
great shoes!
Love the summer spirit^^
my absolute favorite color! i want, i need! xo
The bag on the back of the bike in the first photo is gorgeous!
love how they wear the toms-type shoes the non-stereotypical way.
http://www.diyainherstilettos.com/
scarlet yes, but blue? cerulean of all shades? hmmm
The leather bag on Vespa(?) is awesome!!!
www.nolitavintage.com
Wau, great pictures. I just love the guy in the picture below, he is jusy SO handsome! And those shoes rocks. Where do you find men looking like that?
terrible look
absolutely LOVE the shoe :)
Ok, who do I have to kill to get that Vespa with that bag and helmets? Absolutely gorgeous!
I love all of the shoes in each image! The pop of blue is so lovely.
Becca
Love the 1st photo:))
Great Summer pop colour! I love the Toms and the little jumper she is wearing is adorable. The rolled up khakis with a clean shirt really make the look on these guys.
I love the look of the girl of the first picture.love the oxford shoes.
Bah...i want them!!!
The first one's are Tom's for sure.
I adore blue...fab colour...love the first photo
When I was in Spain in May I saw blue shoes EVERYWHERE!!! Love it!
Love the blue shoes...one of my favorite colors for summer!!!
I love the first photo! The girl looks amazing!
http://fromdenimtodessert.blogspot.com/
love the toms!
and great photo
http://www.pinkpeonieswithlove.blogspot.com
love the first photo... totaly! everything... every detail!
what a fun accent to a neutral outfit! Plus, Toms (the shoes at the top), help underprivileged kids with every purchase.
Love how the blue just stands out so strong against everything else.
http://jimjims.net/
Where I live (Italy) I have not see yet blue shoes, but I like them with a fresh style.

http://themulticolorplanet.blogspot.com
I have those TOMS! They're so great.
I live in New York and always see people wearing shoes like these! They are amazing and add a pop of color to an otherwise dull outfit.
Love the color and the shoes are perfect for summer in the city. I have been wearing Tom's from the past two summers...great cause and great colors.
Love the way the scooter in the first picture is "accessorized." :-)

Both photos are perfect. Summer joy of life, coffee and those blue shoes :)
Those shoes are called "alpargatas" and were used by the Gauchos in the countryside of Buenos Aires. Nowadays it's a popular shoe around the stylish "porteños".
I noticed a lot of men in Paris wearing similar a similar electric blue in their shoelaces the spring before last. A truly versatile color.
How rad- love them!
The first man looks silly. The second look fantastic. Pretention vs. fun.
They really stand out! Great for photos as well. xx

electric colored shoes are an instant spot of attention, i like them... but what i also like in your fist photo is the nice patches of light and shade. a very cool shot!
love,
szucs
I want blue shoes now!
To the anonymous porteño:
those shoes are called "alpargatas" at least in Cataluña and South Brazil. I guess some catalans (or hardly a French guy) brought them to South America, where both Argentinian and Brazilian gauchos use to wear them.
They are wonderful, but turn into stone after a rainy walk.
Laura
The guy in the first picture is Oliver Jeffers isn't it? The illustrator?
These two photos are wonderful, u feel the spirit of place & people. Great work!
I like it!
www.neighbourhoodandco.blogspot.com
i've always wanted a pair of this specific blue!!!
like it sooo much!!!
(:
Ooh, gorgeous!
This isn't a good look on either men. I love a splash of color, but this just looks tacky to me. And the first guy looks like a fashion victim. He's over-thinking it and looks a bit silly... his clothes are wearing him. The bag on the scooter is amazing, though!
I don't know if I could give a pass on those shoes. Yes they pop, but the color, ehhhh I don't know.
windowshop78.blogspot.com
Wow, brilliant photos, they look like film stills...
Love the outfits, at times I envy Italians for their natural charm.
Beautiful
oh, those blue shoes
I love these photo, especially the second in that little pocket park. His shoes are amazing, what are they?
Don't step on my blue suede shoes! Or on my blue non suede shoes!
I love it! I hope these unexpected pops of color don't go away when Fall clothes come out. It feels especially bold on men ...
Cheers!

they’re amazing!!My fav.the first photo!
http://it-stylist.blogspot.com/
I got the used blue shoe blues!
beautiful blue shoes, I love them!
hah! I've got my periwinkles on today too!
The light in both these photos, particularly the second one, is divine. Pops of color are so fresh-- I'd be thrilled to see this trend continue on through fall!

Blue shoes are great and all, but my eyes are on the Zeha's in the first photo. GORGEOUS!
Such a beautiful and vibrant blue/turquoise...
I'm in love with the first pic, such an incredibly chic couple.
Love Alexandra
http://tovogueorbust.blogspot.com/
Love the Zuriick shoes on the guy at the cafe! Great color!
I just love the leather bag on Vespa!!!! Where did he found it????
those blue babies sure add a little somein' somein'!!!
HELLO!!!
The shoes of the first photo are the classic argentinian ALPARGATAS, wore by the gauchos.
In both photos, clearly the first, are they not espadrilles? And I particularly like both men's tapered, rolled-up pants. I have the espadrilles - Provence, but where, oh where does one find these flat front narrow leg pants? Thank you.
Does anyone know what brand of shoes the gentleman with the coffee cup in the 2nd photo is wearing? They look like they might be Vans, but I have not ever seen them in that shade of blue. He looks very cool......
I've got shoes like that too :p
Nothing like making a statement and what better way to make it than with your shoes. Very snappy.

The first picture juast can't be natural, it all looks perfect!
Every detail
Kisses :)
I don't like that shade of blue to be honest. They remind me of the hospital. Plus it's so vibrant that I don't even look at the rest of the outfit. My eyes are just stuck at that one place, which really isn't a good thing unless I'm looking at their eyes/face. And the shoe itself looks like a sock to me. Sorry.
To those wondering, the gentleman in the 2nd photo is wearing the slate colored Ake shoes by Zuriick (http://zuriick.bigcartel.com/).
I own two pairs of them and love them. Stylish, simple and surprisingly comfortable. Even better, they're from a small company in Utah.
Never liked that color - or cheap uncomfortable shoes. Sorry.
LOVE THOSE ZURIICK SLIP ON.
CASUAL AND IN THIS CASE CLASSY.
first pic is my new fav...amazing atmosphere
Pictures of lovely people on the street
Turquoise shoes worn by two people ... the beginning of a trend!

YEAH!!! I LOVE that there are Toms Shoes in your post!!! if you don't know about them, check them out at http://www.tomsshoes.com
they are amazing with a great cause!
and the blue is adorable! i love color in mens' shoes! they are so unexpected, but always welcome and refreshing!
Two great shots. I am just loving the light this week Scott. Oh, this blue is lovely and looks exactly the same on both pair of shoes. I am especially loving the second shot. Great natural setup. HIs casual outfit, the rolled up chinos, the espresso, and those shoes!
love the first photo
those blue shoes are one of the most wanted now for summer,they,r amazing ♥
a dash of color makes everything better
Love the Toms in the first photo, although both styles are great. Such a wonderful summer look. Gotta love a man whose not afraid to have fun with his clothes.
Love the first photo! They both look so chic!

wow, the fist photo is fab, love that there is a story there and it all looks so natural without superficial posing

He looks so timeless, old, young, mature, full of energy...it all depends on where you look, his smile, his arms, his face... love the blue shoes and his almost childish smile, so full of joy and life. LOVE the picture!
loving the blue.
amber
love the blue shoes. but what about the girl? she looks pretty great, and has great shoes too!!!
thecoffeexperiment.blogspot.com
and what about this beatiful girl?!
That first picture is of Oliver Jeffers, a FABULOUS children's book author and artist whose work EVERYONE should know! His books are wonderful, sweet without being saccharine and his illustration style is as appealing as his street style. I was so excited to see him here on my favorite fashion blog!
Love Love Love the "surprise factor" in inviting an unexpected (and preferably popping) shoe hue to an ensemble. It elevates the overall look and immediately seduces the observers attention - which is one of our main intentions when we dress up (well, on most days..)
People should play with this simple detail more often.

he's so cool
Hey Chuck3819. I think they are zuriick....
Blue Blue Blue !

-diary of a fashion stylist-
What a lovely shade of blue, David Hockney Swimming Pool Blue? What ever it is I love it. Both pictures are lovely. I love the dappled light and shade in both. You are really on an incredible roll this week Scott. Loving them all!
that is a great blue...
http://pergolina.blogspot.com
love everything about the first picture, the bag on the vespa is so beautiful.
The vespa on the first photo is a beaut! And the leather trunk behind looks divine!
http://themadjungle.blogspot.com
Those shots are very natural. I love it!
the scooter couple may be my favorite image of the year
cheers,
JJ Scholl
Love the style of both the girl and boy in the first photo--but am not so sure about that blue colour--maybe if it was a bit darker or toned down--to match more with the rest of the tones in his clothes.
Same comment re the 2nd photo--just my thoughts.
Sart--I am thinking your more recent photos are not as cutting edge and creative as you have had in the past. I hope I'm wrong but after a bit of a peep back to 2009 I do think I still see it that way. Hoping for some more artistic styles showcased soon.... :)
Love the blue! I just wish there was some sunshine in Ireland so I could get mine out.
The first pic is awesome, love it sooooooo much! great job!
www.abitoffashion.com
I love those shoes...the color is just amazing!
http://fashiondoesntexist.blogspot.com/
What are Toms?
Love the pop of blue!!
Oh Yes! Fab colour blue to give new life to an outfit. I just love the girl's shoes too.
The pop of blue gives the outfit a perfect finish. <3
Great shots the both. I love the shoes of the girl
I am obsessing to have my own pair of blue shoes!!! That's it! I have to keep searching until I find The Perfect Blue Shoes for me
I love how the blue shoes always serve as eyecatchers for otherwise rather plain outfits !
Is that last fella sitting at The Smile near Great jones?
i'm still looking at the couple... can't stop
Beautiful photos.
Ooh, I love vespa's :)
And the blue shoes really stand out in the pictures, nice..
xo.

Love the TOMS! Great shoes for a great cause!
http://wheresmycalling.blogspot.com
That girl destroys everything around her. She is so gorgeous and her shoes are amazing. I'm so into the oxford/brogues on pretty girls look that's goin on right now.
it will always be a wonderful color on shoes.

What is Back Dart means?
That blue shoes is hard to pull it off.
I feel super fashionable right now because I made my father buy blue gaastra shoes a couple of years ago. He started wearing them because he went sailing and now they are his favourite casual shoes!
Ha. This just proves his awesomeness :p
Great combination of a saturated hue with neutrals in the second photo. Inspiration for me.
I love Toms! The idea of being able to help someone else in need is wonderful. And the shoes are not half bad looking. I have a pair and so does my mom. Although it is more like I have two since I always use my mom's too. I tell all of my friends they should get Toms.
I love the blue shoes!!

Hello,
if you are looking for those shoes and you are coming to spain, just ask for a light blue "esparteñas". They are the same as in the pics but without the horrible plastic base and nice "rope" based one. And hey, the pair is only 3 euros.
And let's not notice the gorgeous MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA men's shoes worn by the woman in the first picture (Margiela's team has been producing the most spectacular shoes of late...with price tags, sadly, to match.) Summer dress and androgynous shoes really does it for me.
Turquoise is the color in trend...truly chic.
Lovin' the first pic so much but then I'm biased - I bought a similar cream Vespa yesterday! The girls helmet is a Vespa GTV Sienna Avorio (current design, not vintage) and the mans a Davida. Both available in the UK, but sadly not that beautiful bag I'm sure! I want one! Could we convince you to shoot more beautiful people on italian scooters as well as bicyles Scott?! I love what you do...
first pic is very well staged...
the lady in the picture looks amazing:) and i love all the shoes in the pictures:)
I am more intrigued with the emergence of scarves on American men than the shoes.
I love blue shoes but these look a bit absurd... like they left the house in their slippers.
yeaah alpargatas, that´s their name!
love from argentina!
does anyone know where the second photo might have been taken? it looks like a great place to hang out.
While the girls rock the same color in nail polish, the boys rock the blue shoes! Awesome ...
I have a serious question, here. From the month of May until now, I've been in at least 10 cities of a million people or more, on 3 different continents (including the one I live in.) I haven't seen a single grown-up man wearing his pants rolled up like this, unless he was pulling a skiff onto the beach. I haven't seen ANYONE wearing a suit with his pants rolled up and no socks. This has piqued my curiosity. Is this something I'm going to see "everywhere else" in a year? Two years? Or, is this a fashion trend that will not get out of London, Paris, Milan, New York? I was in Los Angeles for a couple of days last month, and I didn't see a single man dressed this way. I am a fairly late bloomer, as far as fashion goes, but I am willing to learn. Please, someone, enlighten me. (I love the second guy's shoes, by the way.)
thanks for the inspiration of the blue shoe! It's an amazing colour to be worked into an outfit.
http://chaoticdesolation.blogspot.com
Oh! I am so excited that you took a photo of JPh. Love that man to pieces. Have you moved into his old place yet?
I owned a pair of blue ballerina flats for the longest time, and I simply adored them. I completely wore them out, lol!
Have a great weekend :)
The blue shoes in the second photo are made by a company called Zuriick. I have several pairs and the blue ones are my all time favourite!
I have the same helmet! :D
I'll comment on the second guy because it sums up best what I am trying to say. A splash of vibrant colour is great. However, when its a total neutral outfit and then wham, electric blue shoes, it just doesn't work. the splash of colour needs to compliment the outfit. Here, it just seems out of place. Typical black shirt and khakis and then, bam blue shoes. It doesn't compliment, it just becomes the sole focus. There is no where to look but the shoes. I think the splash of colour technique should be discreet and not on the extremities (gloves, hat, shoes, etc)... it works best as a scarf or pocket square or even a belt...something in the middle to balance it out, not tip the scales.
where is that beautiful leather bag on the back of the vespa from? so yummy, I want it for my vintage Puch!
That's amazing how blue detail can change a look!
i believe in the second photo those are zuriicks, i have a pair just in grey.
sooooo....does this girl have a name?
I Love it!!!!!
Shoes should be the statement. The colour can stand out for me!
I really like light and atmosphere in these pictures.
It makes me want to leave Paris for a week or two.
The shoes in the 2nd photo are by Zuriick. They have leather soled styles in that color too. So good...
The Bloke on top proves you don't even need to be a MOD to pull off a good Scooter look.
Even a Davida helmet, well done mate.

Oi!!!
The Blue Shoe, New York ????? the kid on the bike has espadrilles Argentine camperooo the purest style !!!!! is copiaaa!
are beautiful, no?? silvia
Turquoise is the color of a summer sigh.
Always an eye for color.
Notice how it sparkles in the light and shadow of the rest of the shot.
Can you smell the coffee?
TOMS! Best shoes ever. Every man I've seen wear them manages to look so fresh and stylish.
Great looks as always - love the look of the place where the guy is drinking coffee - where in NYC?
the first guy is stunning! wow!
great looks for men, can't we bring that sense of fashion to chicago now?
Wow, I want to sit with him and to drink tasty coffee and rest, rest , rest. Fantastic shot and pieces of the day!
