A Shoe Story

To complete your trendy dress, you must also have a trendy pair of shoes. Every year, trends always changes. So we must be updated to the latest trends. Here are some of the trendy shoes this year:

Stilettos – they are trendy again this year. It is a hybrid of platform and stiletto: a hidden platform in the front part of the shoe, with a super-tall stiletto heel at the back. They look elegant and sexy in which, the higher they are, the hotter they look but thewy don’t offer much support for your feet.

Thick, Chunky Heels – unlike the stiletto, which is more graceful, it is better to walk in because of its thick heels. It will make your feet more comfortable to walk.

Tampered heels - Heels that start thick at the top and taper down, often with a curve, into a stiletto-esque point at the bottom. They are really sexy, interesting and modern style which can make your outfit trendier.

Squared-off toes - A nice, modern alternative to the lady-like round-toe; edgy, but not as harsh as a sharp point.

These are the shoes that are surely trendy this year. We must also remember that in choosing our shoes, we must choose the comfortable one. Also, the shoes must match our dresses and the event that we will attend.

Gladiator Talk

Gladiator sandals are on the trend this season. The gladiator is versatile, not so girlish and, also, it is functional. By wearing this kind of sandal, we must be aware on how to dress around gladiator sandal. These are some tips for you that I have searched:

 Heeled gladiator sandals- these sandals looks great with dresses, pants sets or a pair of jeans.

 Sandals that are higher than the ankle, mid-calf or knee high- shorter bottoms are nice with this kind of sandals. You can also wear it on the outside of skinny jeans for a very trendy look but don’t throw loose boot cut jeans over the sandals; it never looks great with it.

 Cuffed gladiator sandals- you can wear this in casual basis like going summer night out. This will look great with leggings or cut off jean shorts.

These sandals are great this summer just to match it properly with your dress and you will look perfect.

A ‘Short’ Story

Printed shorts are on trend this summer. They really look cool and casual and perfect wear for the summer season. Plaid prints shorts makes an outfit looks preppy, cute and very stylish. Classic striped shorts are in fashion that would enhance your style if it will match perfectly with trendy accessories. These shorts will look gorgeous if you will wear them with heels.

These shorts are surely comfortable and trendy in this season. The prints give casual and carefree look. It is perfect especially at beaches, malls and any non-formal places.

Wear it purple-y right

Purple would probably the ‘it’ color of the season. From shoes, bags, T-shirts, to even underwear, everybody just go gaga over this shade; even celebrities!

But if you think pulling off the shade is as easy as you think, then you may have to think again.

Fashion.about.com suggests ways to make a fashion hit with a strong color like purple.

Here they are:

• Pair with black or other dark neutral like charcoal. A purple blouse under a dark suit looks great for work.
• Punch up purple by wearing with eye-popping brights like grass green or lime. A purple sweater with a bright green scarf radiates personality.
• Complement purple tones with purple eyeshadow, just keep the shadow very sheer and light (too-dark purple eyeshadow sometimes gives you a black eye look).
• Play purple off of equally strong prints. A bright purple dress with zebra (black and white) print shoes is fun and funky.
