Street Style Lookbook: Micro

Though the weather is still fluctuating between sunny summer and rainy spring, we’ve been taking the opportunity to sport bare legs and sandals all week. Admittedly, there have been days when the temperatures are deceiving /not-warm/ and we are forced to revisit the spring jackets and long-sleeved jersey basics that are often overlooked year after year, but regardless of this awkward transitory weather, bare legs will 4ever remain – that is, unless it starts snowing again… #foreverbeatingthesystem read more…

Little Black Booties: The Official Shoe of Sprinter (Read: Spring/Winter)

 Photo: Fashiontoast

Is it that awkward time of the year again? The period when choosing appropriate footwear is the most difficult decision you have to make in the morning? I mean…is it snowing? Is the salt gone? Is it too cold to rock no-socks? Wouldn’t life just be easier if there was an official “winter/spring” transition shoe? Are there too many questions and not enough answers?!

Well. Let me remind you of something called the ~little black ankle boot~; something we appreciate an infinite and unquantifiable amount. Able to be dressed up AND down, while still giving you the opportunity to sneak socks in (if need be), LBAB’s are not too high, not too low, generally around a 8.0 on the comfort scale, and versatile like it’s nobody’s business. So if you don’t own a pair, get yourself over to a mall immediately, because these guys are going to be your BFF over the next month while you battle these awful transition days. read more…
