They’re baaaa-aaaaack! Did you miss them?

Gladiator sandals are making a comeback for the spring 2015 season and they are being shown in all sizes. Tall gladiators, flat gladiators, high heel gladiators; they are all important for the spring 2015 season. Are you ready for this trend?

Gladiator sandals can be worn any which way this spring 2015 season. The flat styles can be worn with casual attire while high heels versions are appropriate for dressier occasions. You can go for an avant-garde look with tall gladiator sandals or keep it low key in ankle high styles. Whichever style suits you personal style, there is a gladiator sandal for you this spring 2015 season. 

When gladiator sandals came into style several years ago, the tall version was the most sought-after. Last year, when gladiators started to return to the fashion scene, only the low styles were appropriate. Now, for the spring 2015 season, you can wear any type of gladiator sandal style you wish! Love that!

If you wore this trend before, you might be able to shop your closet for gladiator sandals this spring. If not, look for neutral colors and any style that catches your eye. I found a few fabulous pairs of gladiator sandals for spring 2015 around the web and assembled them into the shopping widget below. I hope you love them! I have my eyes on the black flat-form pair and the nude high heel pair shown above. Which styles do you like?

Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

Squiggle pumps and fringe

Squiggle squiggle! From the moment I laid my eyes on these Christian Louboutin squiggle pumps, I knew I needed them in my life. They are basic black, peep-toe pumps with a twist! Or should I say “squiggle.” 😉 I was excited to have a recent girl’s night out with my friends where I could wear these shoes and wiggle the evening away!

To complete the look, because sometimes I dress from the shoes up, I decided to wear my new BCBG fringe skirt. I purchased this skirt to wear in New York next month for fashion week, but decided it needed to be worn ahead of time in honor of the Christian Louboutin Squiggle pumps and grabbing sushi with my friends. What other occasion do I have to wear a fringe skirt? As a Mother of three, I don’t go out at night too often, so when I have the chance, I dress up!

I’m excited to wear this skirt again in New York next month and I am eagerly looking for another occasion to wear these squiggle pumps. Unfortunately they will not go to New York with me. I need shoes with traction in order to survive the snow and ice on the ground back east!

This will be my go-to look for spring when I head out to dinner with my hubby and/or go out at night! What is your current go-to, night on the town outfit?

Spring 2015 wish list

spring 2015 wish list

Spring 2015 is on the horizon which means this is the perfect time to shop for the upcoming warm weather season! As styles shift towards a 1970’s vintage vibe, I find myself drawn towards accessories and make-up; perhaps because this is quickest way to update one’s wardrobe!

Since I already own flares and trouser jeans, I feel like my casual wardrobe can transition into the new season. What I really need are shoes, a handbag or two, and rose hued make-up! (Beauty spoiler: Rose scents and hues are hot for the spring season!) I also want to find a few knee length a-line skirts with a true 1970’s vintage look. I may also look for one of DVF’s famous wrap dresses to add to my wardrobe. After all, what screams 1970’s more than DVF’s iconic wrap dress!

Although the accessories on my wish list are not all a nod towards the 1970’s, they are on trend for the season and would work with my current wardrobe.

Also on my radar. Have you heard of Charlotte Tilsbury Beach Sticks, pictured above? They sound amazing. Charlotte Tilsbury’s Beach Sticks can be used on both your lips and cheeks. They offer a dewy, beach look. Definitely on my wish list! You can see a demonstration video here.

What is on your radar and wish list for the spring 2015 season?
