New York City has finally welcomed summer weather and breezy clothing from our wardrobes. This summer’s trends are fascinating to discover, but something that always tends to strike a statement is footwear. The “it” sandals I have been recently been seeing are high, lace-up gladiators and super edgy flatforms. This Fashionista will show us how she sports her ideal shoes that can spice up any simple outfit.
She pairs the crop top and high-waist jeans to create a perfect combo. She wears a cropped, white button-down shirt that looks crisp, yet feminine with her high-waisted denim jeans. This combination is a go-to for Fashionistas that love to rock the simple, but put together look. She accessorizes with classic Ray-Ban aviators and Alex and Ani bangle bracelets. These minimal bangles are understated and classic jewelry. This outfit is complete with her black, buckled flatforms, which add a true edge to the look. Flatform sandals add a boost of height and are more comfortable than platforms. They have been making a statement in many Fashionistas closets. The buckles provide the right amount of edgy detailing without being too distracting.
I hope everyone has a great start to this summer and enjoy this first look! I am beyond excited for the styles I will continue to discover this season and what’s to come on CollegeFashionista.
How To: Pair the sandals with denim jeans or shorts for a casual summer day and be sure to accessorize properly to keep the shoes a statement piece.
