Studded Leather Belts Are Still My All-Time Favorites!

August 12, 2010 by Michael Jon Lazar

I have already talked about the awesomeness of interchangeable belt buckles—a post that you can find if you are interested that was entitled, “Self Expression & Fashion Easily Attained with Interchangeable Belt Buckles.” Just click the link if you wish to read that article, as it is very interesting, at least in my own opinion; if you are all about belt buckles these days that is. However, there is one topic that I have not delved into regarding belts and their awesome fashion prowess: The couture, suaveness and edginess of the always presentable and very fashionable studded leather belt!

I love to wear leather cuffs, some rings and bracelets, a nice necklace, and always a grand old pair of Doc Marten Boots – which are my favorite of all shoes in the world! (I really go all out on my affinity for these awesome boots in this cool article I wrote about them that you can find by click this Here; which was entitled, “The Ever-Standing Awesomeness of Doc Marten Boots!”) But, I have yet to delve into studded leather belts!

So here we go with the top three reasons why I adore wearing studded leather belts—and nearly on a daily basis, too!

  1. You can easily find studded leather belts online and for very cheap; think of stores like Hot Topic if you are looking for easy finds on affordable studded leather belts. You can also just search for them online, provided you know your size, and easily uncover just a grand plethora of great studded leather belts for really awesome values!
  2. The studded leather belt goes with nearly everything and anything. For Pete’s Sake (whoever the hell gold ol’ Pete is), my mother, who is in her 40s, loves wearing studded leather belts, and she dresses all preppy and adds this edge with a nice studded leather belt.
  3. Lastly: they look freaking cool! As if that was not the superlative of this diatribe anyways. Certainly, there are great belts for all occasions. But if you really want some flare and you truly want to accessorize, then you should look into getting your hands on a studded leather belt, such as the one pictured to the upper left above!

Fall’s Hottest Shoes for Women

July 31, 2010 by Sarah Arnette

Woman’s footwear is always changing. Not only does a woman need shoes that fit her outfit, but she needs the shoes to fit in with the latest styles. The next season’s shoes are already out on the market, and they are sharp, literally. The pointed pumps are back! This classic style never goes out of style, but every now and again, it gets the recognition that it deserves as a fashionable piece of a woman’s wardrobe.

There are some benefits to the pointed toe pump. First, they help to flatter every body type. They help to draw the eye into a very sharp and strait line. This helps to create length and leanness, even if the body is not quite as lean and long. It also helps to add a sense of confidence and sophistication to an outfit that would otherwise be less so. This style shoe does not cramp the toes like one would think, but rather extends beyond the toe leaving the toes in the wider section of the shoe.

The pointed toe pumps and shoes do not have to be plain and bland. They can be more daring and eye-catching. These shoes like the calf leather pump from Luis Vuitton sports a large bow over the toe of the pump. While this does distract from the line that the pump would otherwise create, it does add a visual interest to an otherwise boring shoe. The Slingback from Stella McCartney offers the best of the pointed heel pump and the sex appeal of the strappy heel. Covered with small studs, this shoe is all the rage with the sleek and the daring.

No matter what style of pointed toe pumps you favor, you will be the head of your fall fashion class with these shoes. Easy to pair with everything from jeans to a suit, the pointed toe pump and heels are incredibly versatile and flattering. Enjoy them and this fall season’s greatest styles.

Flip Flopping Mess

June 19, 2010 by Sarah Arnette

Now, I know that it is summer and summer fashions tend to be rather casual. However, enough with the flip flops, especially the ones that are made out of foam and plastic. These flip flops are designed for dorm showers, not for every day wear. Not only do they look tacky, but they are bad for your feet as well. Do you see these flip flops on the red carpets of Hollywood? I don’t see flip flops, I see stylish summer shoes and sandals. Still want that free feeling on your feet, but do not want to be a fashion disaster? There are some very cute summer shoes that can replace those tacky flip flops.

Let’s take a look at some cute summer shoes that are affordable and flirty. There are some cute sandal heels that are just to die for. Shoes like the BigBaby from Nine West is cute enough for a casual lunch with friends, yet sophisticated enough to be a work appropriate shoe. The Ideal also matches this critic for a cute sandal type shoe.

The DSW has a large number of sandal flats that are great and stylish alternatives to the flip flop. One of my favorites is the Soul Mate Sandal from Aerosoles. This cute sandal is light weight and provides only a slight rise. The Soul Mate Sandal is perfect for people who do not want to wear heels but wish for a little extra height.

If you absolutely have to have a slide on sandal, opt for something a little more durable and classy than the plastic and foam flip flop. Shoes.com has some cute and affordable slides that can handily replace the flip flop. A top trend this summer is the Shape Up slide. This shoe is said to help tone your legs while still being stylish. From personal experience, I can say that they work great and still look good.

When purchasing a sandal of any type, there are some things to look for. The primary thing is the fit of the sandal. The shoe should not be pulling off your feet every time you take a step. That slapping noise that flip flops make indicates that it is an improper fit. Not only will an improper fit be uncomfortable and can result in dirt getting in the shoe, but it can also be harmful. A poor fit will cause blisters and sores on your feet which can be easily infected due to the bacteria on your feet. In addition to a good fit, be sure that they will go with your outfits. Do not buy a pair of shoes just because they are cute. Buy a pair of shoes that work with your dress style, just not the flip flop please. Most importantly, buy a pair of shoes that you like. No one else has to wear them but you, although we all have to see them.
