Make or Break It

Thru work and blogging, I have found that a shoe can make or break an outfit. Maybe that's why I have so many pairs ;) But in all seriousness, a shoe can determine the entire vibe of a look-- is it sexy? understated? 90s? sporty? In my final post in this week's ode to The Mode Collective, this sandal takes the look from the 90s vibe and adds a bit of sex appeal. Not only is the height and shape the epitome of sex in a shoe, the texture and pattern adds a great contrast to striped knit and classic denim in the apparel. Shop the links above to get my look above and many thanks to The Mode Collective for an amazing week of shoes!

Black and White and Chic all over. This outfit is all about the updated classics. These are essential pieces you should have in your closet that will instantly "chic-up" any outfit. The white silk top, high-waisted black jeans, strappy heels, red lipstick, and a great pair of sunnies. Put them all together like I did or sprinkle them with other great pieces in your wardrobe. I love tucking my silk top into a short a-line skirt or pairing any of my crop tops with these high-waist black jeans. Strappy heels are great heels for a night out but you can also work them for day with boyfriend jeans and a tee. Click above to find out some of my favorites!
