Since it's been feeling like Spring, it's a good time to talk about how to deal with the transition from boots to sandals. It's an awkward transition and difficult to keep track of what's appropriate.. can you wear spring booties in 70 degree weather? I mean, you could, but your feet will most likely ended up sweaty and smelly. Is it ok to wear your Rainbows when it's 40 degrees and raining? Definitely not.
Luckily.. there are shoes for all types of weather to make you look season-appropriate without looking like a dick.
Valentino "Rockstud" Ballet Flats for $745 these bad boys can be yours. The nude color makes them wearable in the spring/summer and the studs add an extra edge to your outfit. If you don't feel like dropping half your rent on a pair, there are cheaper options at Charlotte Russe (super cheap) or Halogen.
Jeffrey Campbell 'Atsuko' Lace Up Flats - These suede-y beauties are only around $100.00. There are a million other versions because this is one of the major spring shoe fashion trends for 2016. The lace-up effect makes your foot appear narrower aka more lady-like. Unfortunately, if you have cankles, these are probably not the best look. BUT paired with a romper or ankle pants these shoes are classy without being boring.
BP. Slingback Peep Toe Wedge - An almost full coverage wedge is the perfect way to transition from booties to sandals. The peep toe lets you show off your pedicure and people don't have to see your pasty foot.
Chuck Taylor All Star Iridescent Brea - Darties and Sunday Fundays are difficult to dress for. You want to look cute but also want to look like you DGAF. Chuck Taylors allow you to do so and are not fugly sneaks that make you look like you're modeling Sketchers 'shape ups.' This iridescent pattern is spring-like and fresh, unlike the all white's that you have to worry about the dirt and grime that come from an all day soiree.
Steve Madden 'Excel' Slip-On Sneaker - Another way to approach the next roof deck party is with slip-on sneakers. While normally these make me think of geriatric patients, many shoe companies are finding ways to make them cute & comfortable. The faux leather and crochet-like detail on the Steve Maddens make the shoe stylish. TheseBetsey Johnson 'SB-EVE' slip-ons are another fun way to put some slip-ons on. Who doesn't love Gold Glitter?
