We’d like to thank Liza Weisstuch and Caroline Myler for introducing us to Spire.com. A few of us at Otabo just joined their network, and we’ve already made lots of fun plans inspired by their members’ In-the-know insight™.

Check out Spire Curator Suzanne Aaronson’s file on Custom Shoes and keep an eye out for reviews from the Otabo Team.

Able to make any woman look as lovely as his dancing partner Ginger Rogers, dancer extraordinaire Fred Astaire placed as much emphasis on his appearance and wardrobe as his maneuvers on the dance floor. Known for his immaculate style – Astaire could move effortlessly even in white tie – his sartorial eye feels right at home for fall. From sneakers to wear while you're singing in the rain to a bright bow-tie ideal for waltzing during cocktails, chic accents are the perfect way to express your style. Slip into some custom shoes to be your own Tiger Woods and snag that eagle. Pick up one of our selects and pliè your way to some old-school style.

1. BULGARI The orange and green Rock ties made entirely out of silk brighten up this season's color palette of neutrals. $170.

2. BOTTEGA VENETA This fall, sling the Ferro intrecciato wrinkled nappa messenger bag around your shoulder for Italian flair. $2,650.

3. J.CREW Classic, comfortable, and never out of style, the adorable Jack Purcell for J.Crew sneakers in plaid will let you get your kicks. $65.

A business wardrobe should be compiled like a smart investment portfolio -- with sensible, thoughtfully chosen assets that eventually lead to a life of luxury. Think of your appearance as a long-term venture. Impetuous players who chase trends in the market or in fashion can be left holding either worthless Enron stock or a closet full of capri pants. We have sifted through the current offerings to present to you the finest custom-made shoes, the hippest thin neckwear (the new "power tie"), the sharpest of this year's suits and other staples of a savvy dealmaker's suitcase. The decision about what makes it onto your shopping list is, of course, yours. But what master of the universe could ever resist the right insider tips?

Otabo digitally scans each foot to create a truly unique pair of shoes. The shoes ($435) are by OTABO. The bag ($425) is by MASSIMO BIZZOCCHI. The socks (from top, $8 and $25) are by GOLD TOE.
