What stood out the most about this Fashionista’s outfit were her stand out shoes! I was able to see those beautiful floral peep-toe flats and their cute little bows from across the room. When you have a pair of shoes like these it can be pretty easy to dress around them.
By wearing black, navy and white this Fashionista allows her shoes to be the star of the show. The shoes are also black, like some of the pieces in her outfit but the floral detail really make them pop. This exact pair of shoes were from ALDO, but you don’t have to stick with just florals. Go with another pattern or design that suits your style.
The long and roomy blazer mixed with the white and navy striped shirt create the effect of a larger top that is tailored-in perfectly by the skinny jeans and the feminine flats. The shoes are able to tie a perfect bow around the outfit with the sweetest, feminine touch. With the over sized top, this Fashionista is able to show off her legs without having to show any skin! The skinny jeans work perfectly with the flats, as the cuffed ends draw the eye toward the detailed shoes creating a slimmer leg.
Let’s not forget about the bag! I am a complete advocate for bags! My grandmother just recently told me, “Everyone should have at least 10 bags. You need one for each occasion. One to wear out while shopping, one to wear for formal occasions and if you’re lucky you’ll find one that can do both. The rest, are for all of the different colors that match all of your other outfits.”
This Fashionista was able to find the perfect bag from Forever 21 that can go from outfit to outfit. A faux leather bag is perfect for those who want the look of a leather bag but would rather make their dollar stretch more. Also, faux leather is a great option for the animal friendly Fashionista/o.
How To: What is the first step to getting this look you may ask? Find a pair of shoes and fall in love with them! Don’t be afraid to wear fun and lavish patterns. Your feet need a little bit of love too! Just remember that if you choose to wear a peep-toe shoe, paint your toe nails just like how this Fashionista has done. It makes your entire outfit more professional when you apply a coat or two of your favorite polish. It also helps make you feel more confident when you look down to see how cute your toes can be! Try something new for your next outfit, don’t just pick a pair of shoes to match the rest of your outfit. Design an outfit to match and highlight those shoes. Try a basic little black dress and pick a fun patterned shoe if you’re not sure where to start. Then send out an S.O.S. because you have stand out shoes.
