8 Shoes Every Woman Should Own

14 Thursday Apr 2016

As anyone who reads the blog regularly has noticed, we have been doing a series on what you should have in your closet.  This week, finally, my true love…shoes!
If my closet is anything but minimalistic, my shoe collection is where I really hit one of the ballpark.  I have no willpower when it comes to a new pair of stilettos.  That said, I do know what shoes are important to have in any woman’s wardrobe, and which ones are for my own happiness.  Here is my list of shoes every girl should have handy to make any outfit work.

The Classic Black Pump
This is what I consider the biggest splurge piece.  Spend your money well, and these shoes can last you a lifetime.  They go with almost everything.  The make jeans look chic and can round out any cocktail dress.  Go for a classic style, and a reasonable heel height, because these are your go to pump.
The Nude Pump
Cute makes your leg look longer, and these shoes will pick up where your black pumps seem a little to aggressive.  They work with a sundress, or at a wedding, or with that great skirt when you want to make your legs look like they go on forever.  Personally I vote for an open to, and a closed, but really know yourself and your wardrobe and get a pair that matches your style.
The Statement Heel
Just like I think ever wardrobe needs a going out dress, and a trendy top, every wardrobe needs the shoes that grab everyone’s attention.  For me, they are hot pink cage sandals.  I have owned them forever, and they are still my favorites.  Wear with a little black dress when you don’t feel like being anything but boring, when you go out with the girls, have a hot date, or just need a pick me up.  These are the shoes that make you smile.
The Everyday Sandal
These flay sandals you find yourself slipping on the moment the weather turns warm enough, and never want to take off.  Perfect for the beach, a day full of errands, or a lazy brunch. 
The Go to Flat
Ballet flats if they are your thing, pointed toe flats if that’s what you prefer.  These are the perfect shoe when you just don’t have it in you to wear heels.  Dressy enough for look professional, or pair with a cocktail dress, but fabulous enough to pair with your daily outfits and make everyone a little jealous of how effortlessly easy your style looks.
The Sneaker
So, maybe its functional because you actually go to that gym place people keep referring to, or maybe its just because sneakers can be a great way to add that casual but still cool look to any wardrobe.  Sportswear continues to have its hay-day in fashion, and with good reason.  While stiletto’s are a work of art, these days we are often just too busy for them to be functional in our lives.  Choose a great sneaker that really speaks to your personal style, and goes with the overall color scheme of your wardrobe.
The Ankle Boot
Every girl needs an ankle boot.  The ways to style them are endless, and they can help you transition between the seasons.  They are also a huge trend this season, as they look great with cropped pants!
 
The Riding Boot
This is the classic knee high boot.  With its half-inch heel and structured look, it will be your go to boot when the weather turns colder.  These boots can help you transition your dresses further into fall, and look great over a pair of tights or skinny jeans.  Plus, the low heel means you can easily walk in them all day.
Bonus Shoe: The Wedge!
I love a good wedge.  While I wouldn’t consider it “essential” it would be the first non-essential shoe I would buy.  Why?  Because they are slightly easier to walk in than a heel, and perfect for anything outside.  Think about all those summer weddings, or street side strolls while window shopping with friends.

OOTD: The Silk Sleepdress

Last week, we touched on the boudoir look for day wear.  If you are feeling a little braver with this trend, try a silk or satin sleep dress, with a flat pair of edgy ankle boots.

OOTD: Wearable Sleepwear

So, we have all seen the boudoir trend.  How is it that a gorgeous taller-than-my-boyfrined model can make it look sleek, and elegant, anyway?  Its an amazing look, but also hard to balance and not look like you just rolled out of bed.  Here is one take on this trend from us to help ease you into this fashion trend!

sleepshirt-whitejeans-mules3

A pinstriped satin sleep shirt is classic night wear.  While its currently street worthy paired with its matching bottoms, if that look is a little two much for you, try pairing it with a cuffed pair of white straight leg jeans.  They look fresh and clean, and give contrast to the I-woke-up-like-this top.  Pair it with another huge trend for the year–mules, and leave the heels at home, and keep your hair loose, wild and way. Think less sultry, and more I always look this good.

OOTD: Pleated Skirt and a Graphic Sweater

Pleats started to step into the spot light last fall, and they continue to make their way into the spring.  Leave the wide car wash pleats behind, and choose a more narrow pleat in a lighter fabric for spring.

OOTD: Bell Sleeves and OTK Boots

2016, bell sleeve, dress, fashion, fashion blog, fashion blogger, how to wear, mixing patterns, mixing prints, navy boots, otk, over the knee, style, trends, vintage dress, winter trends

Over the Knee booths are one of my favorite things this winter.  Why?  Because suddenly my large collection of mini dresses are far more wearable!  This year I am in love with these navy suede boots, which seem to just go with everything.

Another trend I am currently loving?  Bell sleeves.  Its a blast from the past that when paired with more modern accessories can seem fresh and new.

I love this vintage bell sleeve dress, and I also love mixing patterns with a great printed bag!

OOTD: The Skinny Scarf

2016, ankle boots, blazer, cropped jeans, fashion, fashion blog, fashion blogger, fashion trends, how to wear, OOTD, outfit of the day, scarf trends, skinny scarf, style, t shift, trends, winter trends, ysl

One of the big trends this winter has been the skinny scarf.  While it isn’t going to keep you warm when the weather gets below zero, its a fresh updated look a very classic look!  Its also totally perfect for the mild winter that the northeast has been having!

So how did I wear this trend?

Cropped jeans and ankle boots are another huge trend lately.  I am loving these chunky boots because I can be on my feet all day in them!

I also paired this burgundy, skinny scarf with a YSL graphic t-shirt and a blazer.  Perfect for a day of running around running errands while still looking put together!

Fall 2016 Fashion Trends

25 Thursday Feb 2016

Tags

2016, denim, fashion, fashion blog, fashion blogger, fashion week, mini skirt, NYFC, orange, patchwork, skirt, style, suit, trends, velvet

Now that NYFW has come and on, and fashion week continues to move its way around the globe, we have an idea what is going to be big this fall.  So what exactly should you make sure to be adding to your closet?

f21-suit

Skirt Suit

There isn’t anything old fashioned or boring about this suit trend.  Its updated from previous years with interesting patterns, fabrics and cuts.  Also the hem lines stay high, keeping the look ever so youthful (and who doesn’t want to look younger).

Check out this one we are loving from Forever21

 

 

patchskirt

Reinvented Denim

We are already starting to see this trend all over street fashion.  The new denim look is to take your old denim and reinvent it.  Raw hems.  Patchwork.  It all looks new, and eclectic, and we love it.

You can buy this skirt here!

Say Yes to Velvet

Be new, and reinvent your velvet, with a shift or slip dress, or velvet suit pieces.  It adds texture, and a new dynamic to any outfit.

For a safer look, try this shift dress by TopShop.
Feeling a littler bolder?  TopShop also makes a blazer.

 

 

orange.jpg

Burnt Orange

This muted orange color looks amazing on almost every skin tone, and with pretty much every accent color.  Besides, it looks so warm, and reminds us of pumpkin spice latte’s.

Check out this great sweater from H&M.
