Current Shoe Obession: Wedges

Hello Lovelies!

I came to the conclusion that it was about time that I did another fashion post, considering the fact that I haven't done anything fashion related since my Summer 2013 Fashion Trend Series, because I have been heavily wrapped up in promoting my Facebook, and doing makeup lately. Even though I haven't posted anything I am always finding myself creating outfits on Polyvore, which is like a giant dress up game for adults, and lately a lot of my outfits have contained wedges, so I decided that I needed to dedicate a post just to them.

To start off here is picture of three pairs of my own wedges from my Instagram. The polka dotted pair are from Payless, plain black pair are from Torrid, and the black strappy pair are from Just Fab.

I absolutely love wedges because not only do they tend to be more comfortable, but they can be worn many different ways. I also think wedges are perfect for all seasons, as there are many different styles of wedges, even wedge boots for winter. Lately wedge sneakers have been trending and are available in almost every shoe store I have came across, although they do not fit my personal style they do look cute paired with the right outfit.

Here are a few examples of my outfits using wedges from my Polyvore.

Fashion Trend Summer 2013: High-Low Skirts and Dresses

Hello Lovelies!

Today I am going to discuss the trend of high-low hemlines or what some call dip hems...

 

At first I wasn't sure if I like the idea of having a skirt or dress that was shorter in the front and longer in the back, I also wasn't sure if they would flatter my body shape, but I have quickly grown to love the style. High-Low dresses and skirts are basically the mullet of the clothing industry, except they look much better. As some of you may know I am quite the curvy gal and some styles I know just don't work for me, so, I make sure I try everything before I buy, so when I was shopping last I tried quite a few dresses with the high-low hemline and as long as the dress had some type of emphasis on the waist they looked fabulous.

Below are some examples of some dresses and a skirt with the high-low hemline that are just terribly shaped, or the print makes the style too overwhelming. Like I said above I believe the shape of the high-low hemline pairs best with some type of emphasis on the hemline.
