All the Shoes you need for Fall

Fall is here. Whether I like it or not. No surprise I’m slow to get into fall but seeing that Halloween is around the corner and my front walkway if FULL of leaves, I have no choice but to jump on board. One of the hardest things for me is to transition into fall footwear. I love my sandals and flip flops immensely. So I need to have some fancy footwear in my closet to make my transition to my fall wardrobe a little more inviting.

This season’s trends in footwear are showcasing animal prints front and center. Prints and textures are on trend and available in a wide variety of styles from heels to flats, booties and mules. There is an array of options available for your evening out, day at work or errand run. The beauty of these animal prints is that they are all considered neutrals and therefore easily coordinated with any print/color combination.

If you’re looking for an easy way to update your fall wardrobe this season, start with a new pair of trendy and versatile footwear! Whether you’re most comfortable in wedge heels, flats or sneakers… there is absolutely something for you in the latest trends! Find a few inspirational options taken from Nordstrom below… Happy Shopping!!

Start off Summer with a Sale

It’s finally Memorial Day Weekend and I am thrilled! It even happens to be a beautiful sunny Memorial Day Weekend in New England! After all the miserable weather we’ve had I finally feel like changing out my wardrobe and pulling out summer. This is a great time for a closet cleanout. Pull all out the items from your closet that you no longer wear and only put back what you want to keep as part of your wardrobe going forward.

Once you take a look at what you have left to make up your summer wardrobe, start thinking about what you need to complete it. What pieces are missing that will help you get through the events you have planned for the next few months? Are you in need of basics or something more trendy? Having an idea of what you need this season will make it easier for you to shop smart this summer.

Memorial Day also happens to be a really great sale weekend. All your favorite retailers have deals on summer favorites this weekend. Even Nordstrom is throwing their half yearly sale. Below I have included a few favorites to give you an idea of what’s on trend and available this summer. From the platform sandal, to the wide leg pant, floral prints to cut-out details, you can find all the on trend pieces you need on sale! Happy Shopping!

Start Off The Spring Season With Accessories

I know that while I continue to talk about spring, you're looking out your window at snow. Somehow I seem unable to wish it away. Just when I think we're ready for warmer temps Mother Nature says "not yet...." (Sigh.) So, since these temps will not let us start using our spring wardrobe, what is a girl to do?! Well, how about adding some spring accessories to your wardrobe instead? A little touch of spring to make you feel like it's not that far away!

The days are now longer and that is definitely helping my season depression. But a little spring in my closet will go a long way too. And this season's spring accessories are perfect for lifting your mood.

The trends we are seeing this season include the feminine detail that we have come to love about spring. Pastels are in full bloom with an emphasis on pink. Glitter is still a noticeable detail in items from earrings to shoes. Earrings are a this season's statement piece. We are seeing less statement necklaces and a trend toward more simple delicate necklaces. Chokers are still popular and available in a wide variety of styles from pastel velvets to gold chain links and embellished with sparkle. We are also seeing tassels and charms added this spring. Finally, initials are popular from jewelry to bags as they have been for some time. So there is something for everyone with such wide variety, which means there are plenty of options to add to your wardrobe while the temperatures are still catching up.

If you're looking for a little inspiration for spring accessories to wear now, check out a few of my favorites from Nordstrom listed below. Not only are these a great start to your spring wardrobe but they will carry you through the summer! Happy shopping!
