The fall Shoe Guide: Flat Knee High Boots

by ⋅ 1 Comment

Who doesn’t love shoes? And this fall we have so much styles to choose from but not all are as feet friendly as this shoes. Flat knee high boots are really versatile and comfortable. I bought my first pair early this year because I am what you call a fashion psychic. Yep, I can see into the fashion future. So here we go…

Rock style

it is very hard to find stud accents on these boots so trade studs for buckles. Buckles are considered a punk stable a guide of first cousin to the rocker style. I picked this version from sears from 35.99.

I also liked this version for 35.00 which features studs and buckles from Sears.

Romance and Vintage

Look for floral and lace details for these shoes to fit right into your style. I saw these boots at Sears for 39.99 and fell in love with the dusty gray and floral accents.

Classic

The rider style of these boots are a great style for you to embrace since they have a classic feel. I prefer camel for a classic look but this black Gianni Bini give a wink to the style.

Casual

Try the varieties that combine sweater with the knee high boot style. These lace up Big Buddha flat knee high boots have a sweater accent and lace up for a sneaker and socks look.

Glam

Fur accents are the best accessory for the fall and knee high boots that feature this detail are just right. These Aldo boots are on sale at 6pm.com and are a perfect fit.

Versatile, functional, and stylish, these bags can hold everything just in time for the holidays. So here are the best bags for your style (don’t know what it is then take our quiz).

Rocker style

If you want this bag type to fit into your style; try one that is basic black and features studs on the pocket or strap. A black and white version can be edgy as well like the Chanel bag below.

Classic style

For a classic version of this style, go for the satchel shape in the ultra basic brown. Pronounced stitching, and simple locks make the below bag perfect for the classic chic.

Romance/Vintage

For this style, my own, I would look for quilting and pastel colors. Quilting has a vintage feel while color’s like purple and pink add a touch of romance.

Glam

Look for details like gold or silver colors or stitching to fit into your style. Also, try a paired down rocker style bag like the one below.

This look is not for sporty types but a backpack with two pockets will do the trick!

The Fall Shoe Guide Part 2:Flat Ankle Boot

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

The rocker trend refuses to die and i can’t be happier. So it’s no surprise that the rocker girl’s shoe staple is once again in for fall, the flat ankle boot. This time around instead of just studded details the boots now have edgy details like straps, buckles and hardware. The finish of the boot is now more worn and the flat heel more chunky. I own a pair of ankle boots given to me by Steve Madden’s buyer and I love them so much a barely wear them, they are distressed with chains and crystals. I’m definitely taking them out this fall! So I will choose a pair that can fit with ever style and tell you what they go with in your closet!

The Rocker/Punk

Pair these boots with your fav skinny jeans and distressed leather jacket. Can also be done with mini skirt, leggings and fav vintage or current concert tee.

I chose these awesome boots from Joie because they have a dusty look as if you just came off the back of a Harley and the criss-cross strap details are edgy but not the typical studs that have been over done.

Joie “Rolling Stone” Boots $285 www.bloomingdales.com

Romance/Vintage

Pair these boots with long flowy dresses and dark floral patterns and throw on your denim jacket. You can also pair these with a nice lace top and vintage jeans.

I chose these stunning boots from Cole Haan because they have that Victorian look but are made modern with the gunmetal buckles.

Casual

Even a laid back girl can appreciate a good boot. You can pair them with your fav tee and jeans or you can waer them with a maxie tshirt dress and fedora.

I chose these Aqua Boots because they have a nice distressed finish but are clean and simple with the perfect strap detail that can be worn with just about anything!

The latest entry in our Spring shoe trend are wood platforms. These chunky heels are sexy, comfortable and are a throw back to the seventies! They go great with dresses and skirts and will take you from day to night without having to drag another pair of shoes with you, and you can wear them well into summer!

Also because the detail of the floral bow on the second platform is perfect for spring!
