Weekly Trends: Nautical & Easter

The start of spring always gets us excited about two things: warmer weather and Easter fun! That’s why this week’s Shop By pages are featuring both nautical and Easter looks for both men and women.

Nautical: The nautical trend is really making a huge splash in fashion this season, although it’s a trend that’s been around for ages. It just goes to show how timeless this style is! Invest in classic pieces like a striped tee, comfy boat shoes and a few solid pieces in navy, white and red--- trust us, they’ll instantly become indispensable in your spring/summer wardrobe.

Easter: This holiday rings in the beginning of spring season. With pastels being such a huge trend in fashion these days, Easter looks are definitely spot-on, whether you’re celebrating or not. Guys, if you’re a little weary of pastel shades, try infusing a little dose with a pastel-colored tie or layer a pastel tee underneath a button-up shirt.

Behind the Scenes: Costa Rica Spring Shoot Day 4

We continue our sneak peek series on our spring shoot in Costa Rica with Day 4 around Manuel Antonio. We shot around Hotel Costa Verde , the main beach in Manuel Antonio and even found some really quaint cobblestone streets that made for some really cool shots.

Check back next week for the final day of shooting. Here’s a hint: We’re on a boat!

Behind the Scenes: Costa Rica Spring Shoot Day 3

Day 3 of our Costa Rica spring shoot was a little more on the glamorous side. We did our swim editorial shoot at Los Altos, a posh high-rise beach resort and condos in Manuel Antonio. Their fabulous infinity pool overlooking the ocean served as the perfect backdrop.

We also went to Mango Moon, a quaint boutique hotel nestled in the beach town of Quepos.

Weekly Trends: Floral, Spring Picnic & The Henley

This week, we featured three spring trends that are especially suited for weekend fun. Feminine florals, spring picnic and last, but certainly not least, the classic Henley shirt.

Floral: This timeless spring print never ceases to amaze us! While it’s totally feminine, you can definitely wear florals in more ways than one. Try adding a little edge to a floral dress by pairing it sexy ankle boots and a denim vest, or sweeten up your Saturday outfit with a floral maxi dress. If you’re a little prints-shy, you can still add a little floral pop with a nice clutch or floral-print shoes!

Spring Picnic: Enjoy the beautiful spring sunshine in outfits that are both comfy and stylish. We love infusing fun pops of colors (e.g. a great pair of colored jeans) into these relaxed looks. The key is to pick flowy silhouettes and of course, stick to flat shoes. Heels and grass just don’t mix!

Henley Shirts: This easy-to-wear tee is truly a closet staple for every man, no matter what your personal style might be. It goes with everything from cargo shorts, khakis, and even works in a business-casual ensemble.

Behind the Scenes: Costa Rica Spring Shoot Day 2

On day 2 of our spring shoot, we headed to the beaches of beautiful Manuel Antonio in Puerto Quepos. Our first location was a little bit of a hike, but it was well worth it. The payoff was this gorgeous secluded beach at the end of the trail called Playa Biesanz. It was so peaceful and we highly recommend it for a nice morning hike and even a beachside jog along the lovely cove.

We then headed out to the main beach which is a bit more of a tourist spot. The streets are lined with lots of shops, restaurants and bars, making Manuel Antionio Beach the perfect spot to spend an entire day. You can even learn how to surf with one of the many surf instructors lining the beach.

To top it all off, the sunsets on this side of Costa Rica are definitely picture perfect!

Each week in our Shop By pages, we feature some of our favorite trends to keep you in the know during your shopping experience.

This week, we’re highlighting neons, stripes and of course, prom.

Neons: Whether you go bold with a statement piece or just a pop accent, neons are a must this spring/summer! The easiest way to add in a dose of bright color is through accessories. Try a fun neon clutch or cocktail ring to give your look a stylish focal point.

Prom:  With prom season upon us, we couldn’t pass up all the amazing evening dresses we currently have on the site! We’re particularly loving color dresses and one-shoulder silhouettes for prom this year. Don’t forget that we have an entire Prom Shop so you can find the perfect head-to-toe outfit for the big night!

Stripes: Not just in the nautical realm, stripes are a perennial favorite that’s easy to wear with anything. Try a casual striped tee on the weekends or throw on a blazer over a striped V-neck for a cool look.

As you may know, the Zappos Family is going to be moving our headquarters to downtown Las Vegas in a couple of years. We’re so excited about the growing community downtown; we thought what better place to do a fun photo shoot than our own backyard?

For this shoot, we went to a couple of cool spots downtown, including the Hogs n’ Heffers bar, Downtown Cocktail Room, Triple George, and the Ogden. We thought it would be fun  to show another side of Vegas off the Strip!

We had lots of fun during the shoot, and we're so excited to show a side of Las Vegas that some people may not even know exists. Keep an eye out for these photos on our Shop By pages and homepage soon!

Stylist's Faves: Spring Flats

I love my flats. With all the running around I do as a mom, they are my ultimate go-to shoes! With so many variations from ballerina flats, to printed, to peep toe flats, a girl really has lots of fun options these days.

Printed flats in particular, are my latest shoe obsessions. You can go girly with a floral print or bow detailing, sassy with a leopard print and nautical with stripes. Below are just a couple of my favorites. It's so hard to choose!
