Bringing Back Birkenstock

Bringing Back Birkenstock

I bet you never thought you would see the day when Birkenstocks would become trendy again. Though these may not be the prettiest shoes, designers have taken a bold twist of the ever-so-vegan sandal.  Love them or hate them, I have to say I’ve been getting a lot of wear out of mine recently (Thanks mom!). Go on, give them a try. Your feet will thank you later.

There’s nothing I love more than a calming blue to remind me of summers on the beach watching the beautiful blue waves roll onto the sugar white sand.  The good news is this color combination is becoming more and more popular in the fashion world.   The official term “Wedgewood Blue” takes its name after the classic Wedgwood china pattern.  Check out a few of my favorite items in summer’s newest hot hue:

What goes around comes around.  Say hello to fashion’s newest comeback: the pointed-toe pump. The sleek, ladylike design of this shoe adds a hint of sophistication to any outfit. Whether you are looking for a shoe to pair with a pencil for the office, a pair of cuffed boyfriend jeans for a casual dinner, or a pair of shorts with a tailored blazer for girl’s night out, the pointed-toe pump is your new best friend. Not only is it polished and classic, but it is a flattering look on every woman! Check out some of my favorites below:

Take a walk on the wild side this Fall by adding a little leopard to your daily mix. I’ve never been much of a pattern gal myself, but leopard has always seemed like a neutral in my closet. Toss it on with any color for any occasion, and voile! Your outfit is instantly glammed up. If you’re looking for a fun investment piece for your Fall wardrobe, check out some of my new favorite designer handbags:
