Ripped Denim Dreamin'

Jeans: H&M | Top: Zara (similar here) | Sandals: INC (similar here) | Jacket: H&M (similar here)   Bag: Kate Spade (similar here) 

When its not quite spring weather outside in upstate NY, a girl can help but dream about it! Ripped denim will definitely be my go-to pant of the spring, and i can't wait to play with all the ways to wear them. I love the cropped style of these H&M jeans, especially because they show off whatever shoes I'm wearing with them. Ankles will be THE body part to show off this spring, so cropped pants will for sure be everywhere. I paired the jeans with a olive green tank and a patterned jacked in a subdued color to really show off these statement jeans. Nude sandals complete the look, really elongating the leg and showing off the ankle. 

Espadrilles Are BACK

Ever since Chanel released their (FAB) version of the espadrille a couple seasons ago, they have been showing up EVERYWHERE! And it makes one question, why did they ever disappear? They are the perfect spring/summer shoe, and bring a little tropical flair to any outfit. They remind me so much of my childhood, for i was always wearing them in Spain, where they are still very popular to this day. There are so many new styles now, from strappy sandals to wedge heels, but the original slip-on sandal is still my favorite. I am definitely on the search for the perfect pair this spring! Check out the great pairs below.

Louis Vuitton

Louis Vuitton's F/W 15 collection drew inspiration from both the past and future, using both high-tech fabric and metallic materials, resulting in a collection full of cool separates and covetable accessories. 

While many believed Nicolas Ghesquière played it too safe this season, one cannot deny how wearable the pieces were. I mean, isn't that the point of a ready-to-wear collection? The accessories are what really stood out for me, especially the "vanity" box trunks and the new renditions of the adorable mini trunks debuted last season. The venue itself was amazing, and added to the futuristic vibes even more. It is clear Ghesquière is still finding his own place in the historic fashion house, which means finding the that middle ground of staying true to the brand as well as his own design aesthetics. I am sure he is on his way, and i can't wait to see what he comes up with next.
