Hottest Sandals Of The Season

barbara Leave a comment

Summer means vacations and barbecues, but sartorially speaking, it is also a huge shift to open-toe season.  It is the time of the year where we can break out our open-toe shoes and let our bare feet breathe fresh air. This also means that it is time to make space in your closet for the new shoe trend.

There was plenty of shoe inspiration to be found on the spring/summer 2019 runways. From womens water sandals to sneakers to clunky platforms, there are shoes for every occasion.  After examining the spring 2019 collections, we can narrow down to which sandals everyone will be packing on vacation come summer.  They are going to be the heel you will see everywhere.

Without further ado, below are sandals trends that will be dominating this season and it is time to find out how to get the looks for yourself.

The Platform

Designers got a jump start on the platform trend for spring and summer 2019 with this carefree, woven, ’70s-style sandal options that are just aching for a good summer date night.  Comfortable and impossibly chic, these womens walking sandals are an excellent addition to your summer wardrobe.

The Simple Mule

One and done. That’s how much effort it takes to put your foot into a flat slide mule. This season’s best options come in chunky heels and different hues.  Keep it simple with these slip-on mules.

The Naked Sandal

You might have noticed a certain footwear trend that has trickled down from the spring/summer ’19 runways and popped up on your feeds.  “What trend?” You asked? That would be these downright sexy “naked sandals” that are perfect for hotter temperatures ahead, thanks to their cool, foot-baring, minimalist silhouettes.

The Two-Strap

The block heel sandals are still going strong. These subtly tapered heels give a trendy update to any block-heeled shoe. Try them out in any height, or in a sandal or fancier pump.  Consider it the shoe mascot of the summer wedding.

The Flatform

Remember the chunky flatform styles made famous by the likes of Steve Madden and Rocket Dog back in the 90’s? This controversial footwear trend is popping up this season again.  If you did not wear them as a kid, you better buy yourself a pair now.

Gladiator Sandals

All hail the gladiator sandal. With endless styles and shapes, do not be afraid to play around with this season’s “it” sandal style. For the most flattering results, consider adding a bit of height and go for a nude color skinny stiletto heel.  Pair the lace up gladiator sandals with an A-line skirt or a shift dress with a hemline that falls mid-thigh, to give the illusion of leaner limbs.

Athleisure Sandals

The enduring athleisure trend, marked by sneakers, activewear, and old-school streetwear staples are reworked with a polished edge this season. One of this summer’s staples is basically a warm-weather version of sporty sneakers. These strappy sport-style Lostisy Shoes with fuss-free Velcro strap are about to go viral.

Hope you can find some inspiration from this list and have your pedicures at the ready!

Hair clips have been around for a few seasons but they can be difficult to wear, especially when one bad clip placement can take you from sophisticated to school girl in a single snap.  Remember when you had like 10 different types of hair clips and barrettes in your drawer during the 2000s and eventually threw them away?  Well these hair clips are back and there are endless ways to wear them.

During the recent fashion weeks, many models were strutting down the runway with exposed bobby pins and statement hair barrettes.  There are a lot of options to choose from, so if a statement Gucci barrette or snap clip is not your thing, you can go for a simpler, dainty look with sleek hairpins. Take a look below at how you can style the 2019 hair clip trend.

Bermuda shorts are longer length shorts that are an inch or so above the knee.  They were popular in the 90’s or early 2000s.  Lately,  bermuda shorts have been popping all over and have taken brands like J.Crew by storm.  It is going to big this summer.  Its controversial length is not flattering on every body type but women have been urged to step out of their comfort zone and find new ways to wear the trend.   If you need some inspiration, check these out.

Shopping Quote That Is So True

Indeed it is.  Does anyone use shopping as their daily exercise regime?  It is probably not a surprise that we like to shop. I mean, what girl does not right?  Honestly, it takes a lot to shop.  We have to think and decide what goes best with what and move around the store to look for things we want to buy.  I mean you know how big the mall is right? I usually cover around 10,000 steps when I am at the mall.  That’s good exercise eh?  What about you?

Fashionable Tops For Summer

barbara Leave a comment

There are some basic wardrobe pieces which will never go out of style. Reliable, effortless styles like a well-cut blazer, crisp, white shirt, or classic pair of skinny jeans have proven themselves to be must-have for a stylish and easy-to-navigate wardrobe.  Having said that, the exact definition of wardrobe essentials will vary from person to person.  It is important to invest in one of each of these clothing basics that will elevate your style and change the way you approach your closet once and for all.

Have you been looking at your closet and say that you have nothing to wear eventhough you have racks of clothes but they no longer spark joy?  If yes, then do yourself a favor and stock your wardrobe with these women’s fashion tops must-haves.

1.White Shirt

The button-down white shirt is the base level of any wardrobe, whether you are working in the corporate world or not.  The relaxed, slouched shape is just what it is needed to break up an ensemble, or roll up the sleeves and undo some of the buttons to wear over your swimwear.  A white shirt is the foundation of effortless style. A classic, white button-up shirt is a must-have for pretty much any occasion. Tuck yours into a pleated metallic skirt and add statement jewelry for a holiday party, or pair it with your fave jeans for weekend brunch.

2.  Striped Tops

A classic Breton-stripe top looks just as good with slouchy denim as it does with a pencil skirt. Mix it with solids, florals, plaids, or other striped separates.  Layer a striped T-shirt under a blazer or denim jacket, or tuck it casually into a pair of jeans for Sunday brunch. Worried horizontal stripes won’t flatter you? Go for a thinner stripe.

3.  Floral Blouse

Florals are the fashion favorites during Spring/Summer.  A floral blouse will go far in your wardrobe this season. It is great for brunch and date night. Add a denim jacket for a casual feel or a heel and clutch for an evening look.

4.  White T-Shirt

The plain and humble white tee seems super simple, but it can actually act as an anchor to many different fashion-forward looks such as printed shorts or colored jeans.  The white T-shirt is versatile, cool, and it is a staple you can wear any day of the year and in any season.  It can add a casual element to silky, beaded, or sequin skirts, or simply just convey a sense of summer ease with a pair of blue denim cutoff shorts or a basic pair of overalls.

The styles above are those you can mix and match to your heart’s delight, whether you are getting dressed for work, brunch, or anything that might come up in between.  Want to know where to find these lovely and quality cheap clothes for women?  Well, head over to Sebellamore.com, an online retailer which features a huge range of quality clothes that you need to give your wardrobe an update.
