Ah springtime! There are lots to love about this optimistic season, one of which is all the pretty pastels out there. We’ve featured this trend in the spring issue of the ZN, and since we can’t get enough of it, we’re bringing you even more lovely pastel to feast your eyes on for spring:

One “micro trend” we are loving lately is perforation. Whether it’s on a belt, a handbag, or shoes, these cool cutouts lend a slightly sporty, totally cool vibe to even the simplest pieces. We love it paired with something a little more feminine; for example, try belting in a floral dress with a perf belt for an edgy touch. Here are just a few of our current favorites:

1. Linea Pelle Addison Waist Belt, 2. Linea Pelle Addison Hip Belt, 3. Linea Pelle Skinny Square Perf, 4. KORS Michael Kors Oatlands flats, 5. Rockport Zelia wedges, 6. MICHAEL Michael Kors Marina Large Drawstring Shoulder Bag

It’s no secret that we love our sandals for spring, but there’s a certain type of sandal that has captured our style interest lately: the cork sandal. They're perfectly casual and laid back for all those summer dresses, shorts and jeans. 

There are tons of really gorgeous iterations of this trend; we couldn’t possibly pick just one!

As much as we love our heels and wedges, there’s always a special place in our hearts (and wardrobe) for lady-like flats. These chic and walkable shoes are equally perfect for a professional setting as they are for a night out on the town. Pair them with everything from cuffed skinny jeans to dresses to cropped trousers.

Here are just a few of our favorite dressy flats for both day and night:

1. Elie Tahari Shirley Ballet Flat, 2. Joan & David Emily Rose, 3. Joan & David Ezza, 4. Daniblack Rodin, 5. Dolce Vita Laci, 6. KORS Michael Kors Otley

After being cooped up in socks and boots all winter long, we’re definitely eager to slip our feet into some fabulous sandals this spring. Espadrilles and wedges are still a mainstay for the season, particularly ones in a low to mid heel height. They’re great with this season’s dresses, cropped pants and skirts.

Below are a few of our favorite go-to sandals from Kork-Ease and Cordani—two brands that blend chic style and wearable comfort so perfectly.
