Trends: Espadrilles

Embrace the season’s top footwear trend this spring in a gorgeous pair of durable and functional espadrilles. Our style experts have crafted four looks from the bottom up to help you jump into the trend. Explore new colors, fabrics and prints to fit your individual taste. Nothing exudes warm weather fashion sensibility like a stellar pair of espadrilles.

As the temperature rises and the summer season goes into full swing, it's important to keep your cool. A pristine summer-white strapless French Connection Caramel Cotton Tube Dress is one way to keep cool while looking abundantly sexy. Add some bright splashes of color with a sassy Nine West Lazar espadrille wedge, a particularly smokin' trend for warm weather. Finish off this sunny ensemble with the perfect accessories such as a punchy and feminine Betsey Johnson necklace and an elegant neutral Cole Haan Perry Street Bella Clutch. The only thing missing from this fab outfit is that colorful umbrella-topped cocktail to match.

 

 

 

One way to keep monotony at bay this summer is to mix up your prints. Take this cool ensemble for instance; it mixes the classic summer stripes of the Joe's Jeans Abby Tank with the artistic floral print of the Steve Madden Starlet Skirt. Keep the rest of your outfit nice and solid, like a fabulously neutral Steve Madden Rapup wedge sandal to lengthen those legs. A bright and bold Diesel She's Got The Lock Bright Charactery bag keeps this look fresh and of-the-moment, and a nice layering of the Fossil Fly Free Jet Mat Multi Necklace adds some fun interest. This is an ideal spring/summer look that combines all the essentials in one updated look.

 

As the days get longer, there's more of a need to have ensembles that look on point from morning errands to early evening dinners. This cool and breezy outfit fits the bill with a flowy white BCBGMAXAZRIA Cascade Tank W/Ruffle top and the classic AG Adriano Goldschmied Stilt in Engage. A thoughtfully embellished Steve Madden Chryslis espadrille wedge adds the perfect touch of interest, while a sassy bracelet and delicately pretty earrings keep things feminine and sweet. Don’t forget to make it pop with a Dooney & Bourke Dillen 2 Medium Zipper Pocket Sac. This look is extremely versatile and can be worn at work, on the beach or out to dinner. 

 

 

The temperature is rising outside, so why not help usher it in with a terrific spring outfit? Slip into this eye-catching BCBGeneration Collar Detail Dress and stand tall in a pair of Stuart Weitzman Alex wedges. While you're walking around inciting a favorable furor among the passersby, you'll need to cool off with a small bottle of water. Keep your essentials ready with this vibrant MICHAEL Michael Kors Charlton Crossbody handbag. Crown your ensemble with a vivid necklace and dynamic bracelet. Now there's no doubt about the three-alarm fires you'll be creating in the hearts of everyone.

Accentuate With Premium Denim

denim, fashion, fit, inseam, premium, bootcut, wash, boyfriend, distressed, 7 for all mankind, paige, joes jeans,

Picking the ideal denim to match your style as well as the occasion can be difficult, but it doesn’t have to be. Since jeans are a staple in every woman’s closet, it’s important to find the pair that matches your body type and showcases your positive assets. Here is a guide to help you choose the perfect pair.

Denim arrives to a washhouse as a very dark color but it goes through a wash process not only to help with color, but also with texture. You can purchase denim that has been treated in numerous ways. Some styles feature whiskering, a process done by fading the edges and creases to create an aged look. Abrasion, grinding and resin bake creases are the most popular treatments for premium denim. For abrasion, the denim is scraped or rubbed, most often with pumice stones, to give it a worn or faded look. Grinding is when they create a worn look by distressing the material around the hems, seams, belt loops, pockets and/or waistbands. The newest treatment, resin bake creases, is a process that replicates the look of permanent creases that would occur after repeated wear and abuse.

There are numerous leg openings/styles to choose from when you are picking denim. Bootcuts are slightly flared and offer at least 18-inch leg openings. Skinny styles are tight through the thigh and leg with 10-13 –inch leg openings. Straight styles are the same width at the thigh/knee and leg openings, while flare styles are narrower at the knee with 20-25 –inch leg openings. Boyfriend styles are typically cuffed at the shin and feature skinny or straight thighs. And lastly, the trouser is a fuller leg from the hips down.

Finding the right inseam for your body type will ensure a proper fit. Standard inseams are 32 inches, while petites are 29-30 inches and tall inseams are 34 inches. Next, you’ll want to find the right rise for your look. High rise styles are 11 inches or more and sits above the natural waste, covering the navel. Regular rises are 9.5-11 inches and the waistband sits just below the navel. Low rise styles are 7-9.5 inches and the waistband sits about 2-3 inches below the navel. Lastly, super low rise styles are 7 inches or less and the waistband sits 4-5 inches below the navel. Now you just have to find the right designer for you.
