This Season’s Must Haves
With the month of April gone, we are itching for exciting ensembles to add to our wardrobe. With the hot temperatures on us and the rains refusing to pour, it’s finally time to start introducing lightweight wares, bright colours and fun footwear back into our wardrobes. So before you head out to shop make a list of your needs with these nine items at the very top.
Frayed Denim Shorts or Skirt
Denim shorts are always a staple but this season, the frayed kinds are bigger than ever. Plus, just like jeans, they pretty much look good with anything.
Colourlful Slip Dresses
Slip dresses are this season’s best gift, since they’re super light and airy. Throw one on with a pair of flats on a super-hot day.
Mules
Calling all slippers lovers. Mules are basically like wearing slippers, except you get to wear them out in public—and look good while doing it.
Exaggerated Sleeves
The bigger the better is the key to your sleeves now.
Graphic Bags
When it comes to your bag this May, more is most definitely more, and the crazier the better. So if you’ve always dreamed of carrying a purse shaped like a soda can, your time is now.
Lace-up Flats
Flats are always a wardrobe staple, but they were in major need of an upgrade. Isn’t it a wonder what a skinny little lace can do to a shoe?
Off-The-Shoulder Everything
If 2015 was the year of the midriff, 2016 is totally the year of the shoulder. Don’t be afraid to show yours.
Next-Level Gladiator Sandals
Gladiators are the best option when you want your shoes to do the talking for you.
Maxi Dress
Rich floral Maxi dress is the best way to go now.
