Fantasy Fashion Becomes Reality

Stripes have been in the spotlight this season and what better way to spice up an outfit than with a pair of striped pumps?!? Charlotte Olympia's striped canvas platform pump bring interest to any look and are the perfect pair for venturing in the the realm of mixing patterns and prints.  They may not be perfect for venturing into the world of designer shoes at $636 a pop.

Perhaps you were lucky enough to snag a pair of Naughty Monkey's Overboard Pump. These fun and flirty pumps will take your style level to new heights.  Rock them with an all white ensemble or if your feeling bold pair them with a polka dot print! We sold them for a mere $68, Charlotte Olympia who???

Up and Coming

So what's trending now in the "resort" fashion collections? Everything's striped! From uniform skinny stripes to a mix and match of skinny and bold, to diagonal, prepare to add it to your closet.
When choosing a strip, don't let yourself fall into the same trap Jessica Simpson did, you remember what I'm talking about, the thick striped, form fitting, tea length dress.  Before I go off on all of the mistakes with that outfit, one of the major things was choosing a stripe that was too bold for her petite frame.  The smaller your stature the smaller your stripe should be.  Are there exceptions, sure if a top has an "accent" stripe, you can totally get away with a bolder stripe, just be sure that your figure isn't swallowed. Accessorize with solids and coordinating hues, and keep things simple, the stripes are stunners on their own.
