LEGLOVE by Kay Dané
Kayla Shelton,
former designer behind the renowned clothing line Kay Dané, has officially
announced her newest collection: LEGLOVE by Kay Dané. The
innovative stylish collection of “shoe accessories” offers an elegantly crafted
alternative to boots.
LEGLOVE was born out of
the demand for fashionable and versatile boots that can fit all leg shapes and
lengths. The glove-like garments are worn over the leg and/or thigh and designed
to slip on before your shoe. They can be worn tall, cuffed, tight or
slouchy, with any shoe style, giving endless and varying boot looks with one
product. For Fall/Winter ‘13, offerings feature premium Italian leather and
suede with beautiful hardware. Each pair provides an adjustable wear and secure
fit with an elastic stirrup to secure the LEGLOVE under the preferred
shoe.
“For years, the boot
industry has sized the leg of the boot based upon the shoe size, and that is
simply not practical. In a large market of shoes and boots, still many women
find it hard to find a boot that fits properly. That problem is solved with this
stylish product. It comes in a variety of sizes and lengths and provides the
same support and covering for the leg as any knee boot. The luxe look and the
many styles can fit into any closet and can easily expand a day-to-day look.”
explains
Kayla Shelton, designer.
Aside from its
customizable fit, LEGLOVE gladly offers an illusion for the leg, giving women
the leg shape that they desire. Furthermore, LEGLOVE can conveniently be stored
in a travel bag for the busy woman on the go who has a desire for high fashion
while traveling, but no space for multiple foot wear.
LEGLOVES are available
for purchase at http://shopkaydane.com/leglove/ and an expanding list of
boutiques nationwide. They range from $289-$615 retail.
About The Designer: Kayla
Shelton
Born in Nashville, Kayla
Shelton comes by her creative background honestly. At the age of 17, Shelton was
a signed recording artist with both Epic Records and later to Warner Brothers
Records. During that time, she honed her musical chops as a professional song
writer. She has worked with top artists including Pharell, Christina Milian,
Ciara and more.
Most
recently, in 2012, she co-authored a children's album entitled “We Are
Different” (available on iTunes and Amazon) that was picked up by Disney Jr.
Radio in 2013. However Shelton’s primary
focus has been on fashion since 2009. In 2009, Shelton launched her collection
of fun and sexy contemporary women's clothing, Kay Dané. Within 2 years of
inception, Kay Dané was found on magazine covers and celebrities such as Keri
Hilson and Kelly Rowland. In 2011, Shelton decided to expand her fashion
education and took time off to work and learn at Cynthia Vincent’s LA showroom
and House of Chapple Design Studio, Atlanta. While honing her expertise, Shelton
never stopped experimenting. One day she fashioned a pair of vintage leather
pants into what would inspire the very first “LEGLOVE”. After receiving many
compliments, her entrepreneurial wheel starting turning. Coincidentally, she had
also started to notice that many boot collections were unable to fit the
majority of leg shapes and lengths. Hence, LEGLOVE by Kay Dané was born.

Closet Confessions Video on Bluefly Starring Tegan and Sara
Indie rock stars, Tegan and Sara, show off their tour closet and edgy style in
the latest installment of leading e-retailer Bluefly’s popular video series,
Closet Confessions. The Canadian singer-songwriter sisters are known for
their infectious tunes but are also widely followed for their distinctive looks.
Filming from their trailer at New York’s Pier 26 in the midst of a popular tour
with fellow alt-pop band, fun. they showcase a wardrobe of eclectic, ‘90s
–tinged apparel for a video that’s full of street style inspiration.
The guitar-toting duo’s Closet
Confessions episode launching on Bluefly’s website September 16, shows an
exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at what makes the musicians’ outfits sing on
stage. “We have this whole thing: The photo will last forever, but the
discomfort will last only as long as the set,” says Sara about her ensembles
that include leather jackets in the heat of summer. The resulting vibe is
impossibly cool, downtown style with an androgynous bent—a look that’s quickly
gaining popularity both in the streets and on the runways.
“A lot of brands are tailoring their clothes to look a little
more gender neutral,” Tegan enthuses. “When skinny jeans started happening [we
were] stoked. High-waisted pants? Into it.” Their favorites from their
collective closet include printed leggings to wear with leather jackets and
oversized tees, chunky Dr. Martens and acid wash denim that harken to the ‘90s,
and Miu Miu studded lime green sneakers—all components for the perfect
rocker-chic closet. Luckily for everyone’s inner rocker, Tegan and Sara are also
taking over Bluefly’s sister site, Belle & Clive, to curate a collection of
covetable items like studded clutches and printed skinnies, so that anyone can
achieve their indie darling look.
The award-winning Closet Confessions
series—found at Bluefly.com/Closets—was launched by premiere online
retailer Bluefly in April 2010 to give customers exclusive, insider looks into
the personal wardrobes of fashion’s biggest and brightest. It has since gathered
a strong cult following amassing more than 3 million views of the videos
to date. Tegan and Sara join the ranks of contemporary style influencers and
fashion-forward celebrities such as blogging sensations Leandra Medine and Erica
Domesek, W Magazine’s beauty director Jane Larkworthy, Scandal star Kerry
Washington, and E! News co-host Giuliana Rancic. Tegan and Sara’s video
was directed by Brian Quist. Quist, a documentary filmmaker, has worked with
luminaries ranging from The Dalai Lama to Natalie Portman and with global brands
such as Lancôme, Michael Kors, Allure Magazine, Vanity Fair and Vogue.
