How to Wear Ankle Boots in the Summer : Inspired by Louis Vuitton
Oh ankle boots. I sincerely hope this trend never dies since it comprises 75% of my entire shoe wardrobe and based on recent runway shows it’s fall from popularity isn’t likely. The ankle boot is perhaps the easiest shoe style to wear , it fits with practically any look from any decade making it an item you can have in style in your closet for years. Traditionally however ankle boots, like our other fall/winter shoes, get packed away once the summer months hit but Louis Vuitton recently changed that notion. In the Louis Vuitton SS17 show an 80’s inspired boot stomped down the runway with almost every look. The story…

What European Women Taught Me About Wearing a Blazer
Two months after I purchased this gorgeous ever so subtle hounds tooth blazer there it sat in the bag I purchased it in, tags still intact, unworn. It wasn’t that I didn’t WANT to wear it, I loved the idea of a blazer resurgence and the feminine empowerment that comes with a structured shoulder and lapel. The question was how does one where it?

You have been stalking it for weeks: that perfect jacket/bag/pair of shoes you saw on that runway/blogger in that certain issue of Vogue and you know, deep down, with that jacket you would be a more fully realized human being. The only problem is that jacket is $600 and that handbag is 2k and you still do have to pay rent this month. But then comes sale season, aka the beginning of summer when retailers are clearing out THEIR closets getting ready for fall because well retail seasons aren’t the seasons that match the weather especially when it comes to designer collections.

Gucci-fy Your Winter Look
First there was the 70’s trend, everywhere in every collection with different interpretations throughout retailers everywhere. Then a designer takes the trend, flips it on its head and makes it more relevant, wearable and something entirely unique. Gucci is this disruptive force redifining what the 70’s trend should be and consequently how we should dress for the upcoming year.

The result is a relevant yet completely…
