Figure Styling: Trunk Show’s Latest Shoes

Trunk Show played with current prints and texture with their new selection of shoes. Go high and wild this summer with comfortable heels in animal prints and be edgy-prissy with chunky heels in lace.

HIGH AND WILD

If you’re looking for comfortable heels, Trunk Show is your best bet. Trendy designs are now made affordable and even more wearable. A cut of textured animal print already adds a lot of oomph to your outfit. The bearable height is just the cherry on top.

EDGY-PRISSY

Personally, this is the style I’m trying to pull off. I recently balanced out my prissiness by getting a very unexpected hair length courtesy of Studio Zen. Incorporate swag into your girly wardrobe by wearing platforms in lace and printed ballet flats.

Fashion 101: Keeping up with the Holiday Sparkle

Christmas is a season for giving but aside from that, it gets some of us fashion-inhaling ladies giddy because it’s the season where dressing up is mandatory and not optional. Show off your glitter-powdered self and don’t pale to this season’s sparkle. I can already smell Christmas so it’s safe to check your Christmas list. Here’s a rundown of some bright gift suggestions for friends and loved ones. Don’t forget to reward yourself, too. :)

POSH Pocket Shoes has a new installment for the classic femme. The collection called “POSH Brides” showcases flats in pink, beige and silver— champagne tones perfectly fit for brides. The glitter toe detail gives oomph to the Prima bow-flats. POSH makes bows look good; see the other bow-embellished styles in their Facebook.

If you’re looking for unique accessories, might as well drop by Unique Creations to have some trinkets customized. Can’t go to Paris? Might as well start by wearing this pendant and feel like you’re there. ;) Trust me; they’re really affordable and they have a wide variety of pieces, too. If you plan to give these away to friends, I’m pretty sure they’ll give you a discount for bulk orders. :)

Extreme Finds did a good variation of their well-known frenchbraid necklace (as seen here) for the holiday season. Pieces in red, green, purple and gold say nothing but a warm, heartfelt Christmas. Too bad they’re out of bow necklaces, but at least now they have more necklaces and bangles!

Glitter is tacky, but not when used with taste. Trunk Show has a lot of glittered-sequined shoes for those who dare to go all-out sparkling this Christmas. They have ballet flats, oxfords and pumps in different colors but my favorite would have to be the one above. (P.S. Dorothy Perkins has something similar to this with a skyscraping price difference!)

A different kind of sparkle is seen in Mia Casa’s new accessories. Be it a penchant for neck pieces, earrings or stackles, Mia Casa is the perfect online shopping joint for your accessory needs. The necklace above may even double as a lucky charm for those who believe that coins and round stuff bring luck. Hey, you’ll never know. ;)

Well, isn’t Asian Vogue always a sight for sore eyes? Their shoes are too flashy you’re gonna need sunglasses to stare at them! I don’t have to enumerate the reason why Asian Vogue would be a good way to reward yourself or your best friend this Christmas because I believe that the Asian shoe online source is a good place to get gifts whole year round. What’s new? There’s always something new!

With these gift suggestions, there’s no reason for you to be lackluster. Just remember to dazzle everyone with a smile and pair of good shoes and you’re all set. Cheers to the wonderful year that has been and to the new one ahead of us!

I spent my summer in Boracay with my family and it was made worthwhile by the heat of the sun and the fine, white sand of Boracay. It’s my first time in Bora and it certainly won’t be my last because of the night life and the cool Starbucks branch! (sample story only) or here’s the link to my blog entry: http://www.sampleonly.com

How the winners will be drawn:
I will pick the top 3 best told stories. I’m not after the most extravagant way of spending your summer, I’m after how well you tell your story. You have to make me wish that I was there eating a bag of chips with you while watching re-runs of Grey’s Anatomy all summer. It doesn’t have to be fun, it doesn’t have to be cool— just tell your story and let me be the judge. ;)
