Dreaming.












Coachella dreaming. I'm not sure about you guys, but my Instagram has been blown up with Coachella posts. Not only is it making me depressed that I am not there but I'm also getting sever outfit envy. Maybe one day I will attend the festivities but for now i'll settle with playing in the flowers with my puppy.

Phoenix Fashion Meetup.












Last week I went to a blog event hosted by Phoenix Fashion Week, with a few fellow cute blogger friends.  I had such a great time networking with these lovely ladies and viewing some new products and companies. I wanted to wear something sophisticated but still fun and flirty. I thought this wine colored skirt would look great with my chunky Jeffrey Campbell heels. These heels are perfect for a night of standing, they are super comfortable! I'll post some of the pictures from the event eventually but I wanted to share what I decided to wear.

All Black.

































Today I'm wearing all black, very typical. I feel that wearing all black is very powerful but still looks classy and sophisticated. I had to edge up this simple dress with these amazing shoes!! (I'm seriously obsessed) Then I topped my look off with this beautiful red-orange lip color, because everything instantly looks better with lipstick.

Shoes by aly-schmitt 






Some of my summer must have shoes!

1. Nike Roshe Run- Its no surprise that activewear is going to continue to be a huge trend into the spring and summer. Trainers are one of the easiest and most comfortable ways to pull off this trend. Keep your heels in your closet and go for something more comfortable and practical!

2. Fringe Sandal- Festivals are just around the corner and no look would be complete with a little fringe on your feet. The fringe gives an effortless feel and is perfect for warmer weather.

3. Slip-on Sneakers- These are the sophisticated side of the modern sneaker. While being casual they still manage to have a more classy look to them and are not the "typical" sneaker. These shoes are easily worn and perfect for someone who is on the go. (Here or Here)

4. Chunky Sandals- These might not be everyones cup of tea but I am obsessed. The chic chunky flat form, in my opinion, gives the illusion of slimmer legs. This is a fun take on a classic sandal and has that modern, minimalistic feel. I can't wait to get my hands on these guys!

5. Birkenstocks- Not only are they practical but they are completely adorable. There are so many new colors and styles to choose from like metallic, pony hair, leopard etc. (I want them all) You can find one perfect for your style and pair them with shorts or a dress for that easy, effortless look.   

6. Jelly Sandals- They are back! Along with many other 90's favorites the jelly shoes are here and ready for summer. These are perfect with a pair of cut off shorts or to wear to the pool with a coverup. They are perfect to add that element of fun to any outfit.
