There’s something about stripes & flowers that immediately invoke a feeling of childhood nostalgia. These Laurence Dacade embroidered striped ankle boots have a loud and playful feel, with a slightly edgy touch. Pair ’em with flared denim and a pair of oversized shades for a perfectly adorable retro look.

Chinoiserie-inspired prints were everywhere at Simone Rocha‘s Spring 2015 runway show. The red satin brogues have a pointed toe and signature Perspex heel, and are adorned with whimsical matching floral appliqués. Style them with a matching bright and colorful dress, inspired by Rocha’s runway show, or balance out the look by pairing them with a pair of denim skinnies and a crisp white blouse and blazer.

Leopard print is a difficult trend to master. Too much, and you end up looking tacky. With this animal print, the more subtle, the better. Try mixing in details, or peeking out from underneath a shirt. When contrasted against black, red, or a deep plum color, it will stick out and look absolutely stunning.
From taxi shoes to masquerade masked heels to the infamous Sophia Webster pencil heels, I have a more than unhealthy obsession of shoes. However, there’s one thing missing. I have no red heels.
After perusing website after website searching for the perfect pair, I found (as I so often do) too many pairs than will fit in either of my two shoe closets at this time (that is, until I figure out how I can transform my guest room into an adequate shoe room)… I found pairs from every price range, and the next best thing to owning the shoes is sharing them with you lovely readers.
