Star Studded Sandal

Happy hump day lovebugs,
I thought we would spend today teasing ourselves with some summer shoes. The stacked heel is back and better than ever, and when it comes to sandals I like to make it a little less feminine and add some studs.

Sam Edelman, Cam Studded Heel Sandal, $160 $62

These heels are to die for with shorts, a sundress, or jeans.

Express, Studded Block Heel Sandal, $41

Edgy glam never looked so comfortable.

Nordtsrom Rack, Louise et Cie Kellyn Studded Sandal, $153 $69

This shoe has so much personality. I love the ankle strap.

Sole Society, French Taupe Strappy Sandal Phoenix, $99

Yes it's pricey, but look at that color. 

Studs do not have to mean motorcycle. Pull them off with a lovely sandal that you can wear without just about anything.

Spring Sneakers

How about some spring-ready slip ons? Sneakers that are casual, sporty, and chic. I love my Steve Madden slip on quilted sneakers because they are comfortable and easy to wear. These colorful pairs are going to be perfect for the warmer weather.

DSW, Mia Zoe Bow Slip On, $39

Hello spring! How cute are these in blush?

Dr. Scholl's, Madison Memory Foam Slip On, $49

A beautiful sneaker that will go with everything. Jeans, printed crops, you name it.

Nordstrom Rack, UGG Fierce Geo Performance Slip On, $59

I'm obsessed with these sneakers. Highlighter pink and comfort for days.

Nordstrom, Sam Edelman Pixie Slip On, $48

I had to throw in a printed option. So pretty.

Sure it will be sandal season before we know it, but when your pedicure isn't ready, opt for these pretty sneakers.

It is prime boot season and what better way to dress up down your wardrobe than with a great knee boot. They're sometimes tough to find under $100 but I've got you covered today with some beautiful suede knee boots that won't break your budget.

Sam Edelman, Silas Suede Knee Boot, $170 $85

I mean, hello. A stacked heel, rounded but pointed toe, just perfect.

A great low heel for a long day. It goes from work to drinks seamlessly.

Sole Society, Leandra, $149 $74

A beautiful rust shade that will go with just about anything in your closet.

Modcloth, Can't Say Ya Didn't Stride Boot, $69 $27

Talk about a deal! These chocolate beauties must be mine!

Don't spend a zillion bucks on a boot and then feel buyers remorse. There are a ton options under $100 and they are just as stunning!

Come Crawling Back to Me

Let's get a little wild today. Let's play with a loud accessory that is eye catching or maybe I should say ear catching. Let's look at some ear crawlers. These earrings are the definition of a statement earring. They "crawl" up your ear lobe for maximum impact and absolute beauty.

BaubleBar, Viserion Ear Cuffs Earring, $34

I mean, come on. What I love about this earring is it looks heavy but the metal mimics feathers.

Shopbop, Noir Jewelry Ear Crawlers, $65

A little rocker edge to these bling beauties.

Max and Chloe, Seraphina Rose Gold Tiza Ear Crawler, $66

You know what I love about these? Everything. We all have those ponytail days. Well, you're going to enjoy them when you add these beauties to your look.

Zappos, Sam Edelman Stone Ear Crawler Earring, $30

These deco earrings also come in silver. These crawlers are also a bit smaller in size so they're a great starter pair.

I dare you to try these earrings because that's exactly what they are: daring. They are fun, a conversational piece, and always instagram worthy.

Flat Out Affordable

Happy Monday lovebugs,

I hope you had a great weekend. Some great summer sales going on right now. I did some damage on the Old Navy Active sale  and today I thought we would look at some prices that go along with the sale trend. A few weeks ago we had some fun with summer espadrilles. Today let's raise the bar and look at flat espadrilles UNDER $50. 

Macy's, Nautica Rudder 2 Espadrille, $34

A little chambray on a shoe! I love the quiet anchor print.

Urban Outfitters, Soludos Canvas Espadrille Sandal, $48

These remind me of ballet slippers. So feminine and airy.

Dillard's, Kenneth Cole Reaction Boom- Er Leopard Espadrille, $47

LOVE these. Comfort, style, summer.

Zappos, Circus by Sam Edelman Lena, $45

Love the perforated trend in the summer not only for looks but also utility. These also come in five other colors.

Espadrilles are certainly a one or two season shoe, so they shouldn't break the bank. These walkable flats are perfect for summer and easy on the wallet.

Tee it Up

Lovebugs,

I'm going to let you in on a little secret. T strap flats are going to be all of the rage this fall. That's right. My intel is saying buy stock now. So let's get a jump start on this trend and maybe even make it work for summer.

Nordstrom, Halogen Olson, $59

Gorgeous. Wear it now with a sundress and later with ankle cropped chinos and a denim jacket.

Sam Edelman, Colt Sepia, $75

Rocker chic to the max.

Zappos, Keds Tealight T Strap Dot Black Sandals, $30

Taylor Swift would so approve of these little beauties. Part sneaker, part flat, part sandal, all adorable.

Nordstrom Rack, Aldo Fenilone Flat, $49

Quite a little architectural masterpiece. I love the modern details of this flat.

T strap flats are so simple and yet they make such a statement. I love them for summer into fall. Leave those heels in the closet and try these dressy flats.

It's Ok, There is Sparkle

Are you working today? Oh man, I am so sorry. That really blows. I have nothing to make you feel better. Oh wait...I have sparkles.

BaubleBar, Evening Bracelet Stack, $58

So chic. Treat yourself or give as a gift, it comes in the most darling packaging.

Nordstrom, Sam Edelman Sequin Miniskirt, $99

I like this skirt because it isn't a skintight mini. It's almost athletic in its casual and loose fit.

Express, Sequin Front Crew Neck Sweater, $47

Holiday party? Pencil skirt? Jeans? Check, check, and check.

Nordstrom, Keds for KSNY Glitter Sneakers, $79

How fantastic are these sneaks?

So hang in there lovebug, soon you will be eating turkey. Until then, enjoy some sparkle.

Cuff Her

You what trend I'm having some trouble with loving? The ear cuffs. Who thought of this? Why? Why do we need to cuff the ear? But then I saw wearable options. The good people from Sole Society and BaubleBar who took this runway idea and made it workable for us normal folk. Let me show you.

Sole Society, Mini Stone Ear Cuffs, $24

See? We can do this. Great shape, not necessarily understated but we can do this.

BaubleBar, Hermes Ear Cuff Earring, $28

Two pieces, one ear. That's right. This is some serious ear bling.

Bloomingdale's, Rebecca Minkoff Fringe Ear Cuff, $58

So picture this with your faux leather jacket, now picture it with an LBD. It.Works.

Piperlime, Sam Edelman Navette Stone Earring, $50

This earring is so simple and stunning. Delicate petal detail with just enough sparkle.

So are you coming with me on the ear cuff train? I'm on it. I'm not driving the train, but I am definitely on board and enjoying the ride.

Sk8tr Boi

There has been a trend that I've watched from afar this fall and now I think it's time. The slip on sneaker. I think I avoided it because they reminded me of a 14 year old boy. But then I found some feminine patterns and now I'm all about this casual shoe.

American Eagle, Slip On Sneaker, $24

What did I tell you? How sweet are these?

Shopbop, Sam Edelman Becker Slip On, $88

My good friend, Catlan rocked these at her day-after-her-wedding-brunch and they were awesome. Also comes in a great floral.

Asos, Monki Lily Slip on Sneaker, $66

This graphic might be my favorite, it's fun but you can wear pretty much anything with it.

J Crew Factory, Metallic Slip On Sneaker, $38

Killer price point for this go to sneaker.

What are your thoughts on this slip on sneaker trend? I am loving the variety of patterns, colors, and even materials! Slip on is not just for skater boys anymore.

Welcome to the Jungle

We started the week off with a versatile gold clutch post. Today we're going to look at another versatile summer shoe. The leopard flat sandal. Paint your toes, put the band aids away, and let's look at your new go to shoe.

Zappos, Sam Edelman Gigi, $64

We're starting with my favorite. I love this sandal. Give me a weekend outfit it does not work with. I dare you.

Sole Society, Lucky Brand Abbee, $68

A mary jane d'orsay leopard flat. How many trends are we working here? Too many to care because you're going to look awesome.

DSW, Steve Madden Lilie Flat Sandal, $69

How beachy and fantastic are these espadrille leopard flats? 

Nordstrom, B.P. Kastoria Flat Sandal, $69

This is how you mix in leopard. Wear this sandal with navy, black, brown, orange, I can go on...

So splurge on one last sandal purchase this summer. Leopard is going to be the best cost per wear option.
