trendsday: sneakers

9/30/14

  

This time last year I was obsessing over the Nike sneaker wedges… and while my obsession with those never really ended, I am now obsessed with various other sneakers.  From calf hair, to leather, and sporty, to neon there sneakers out there to fit every style.  They just look so damn effortless.  I do not even know where to start or what to say but there are plenty of reasons that sneakers will be a staple in my wardrobe from here on out…

1. They instantly transform your overdone outfit to a casual "I just threw this on" vibe.  
2. They are comfortable, they do not squeeze your baby toe, or cut off the circulation in your feet. 
3. They look better with wear (for the most part).  Theres nothing better than a broken in pair.
4. They instantly make you look fun… a girl in fun sneakers obviously is always ready to participate in fun activities… 
5. They can be paired with such a wide variety of outfits… please name a pair of pointed flats that you can wear with athletic jeggings and a flirty skirt. 

I think I have proved that ultimately sneaker are an essential… if you don't believe me try them out or just view the fabulous photos above, again.

So far I have opted for these (they are on sale), but am falling in love with the look of these

I love finding forgotten pieces from past years.  This silk Madewell shirt I was extra excited to bring back.  I am still inlove with the colorful patten as much as I was last fall.  I used the green jeggings to pull the vivid green color from the blended pattern and adding a white blazer sealed it togeather.

Naturally im wearing my favorite flats, and carrying my favortie bag.  I was sceptical albout my natural hair, but surprisingly my locks cooperated.  I find that getting a good natural look comes when you least expect it (I just wish it would cooperate when i'm running late to work). 

Hope everyone is having a great week!
