Do You Dare 'em? Harem Pants!

A very chic, Parisian look has filtered its way into the strainer that drainst the 'must have' fashion trends for the U.S! On every Fashion Week runway and filling the pages of all style magazines is the harem pant! Soft and feminine, but still edgy, these pants are essential for the current summer and the approching fall season.

Linen, silk, spandex and simple cotten harem pants create a light-weight, comfortable and breath-easy feel while providing a high fashion look! Dressed up or down these trousers are perfect to pair with simple cotton tees, fun jackets and dressy chermuse blouses in addition to fun accesories like thin, leather belts! Also, due to the shorter length of the pants a pair of stunning heels can be seen at all times- a great excuse to slip on those killer shoes!

This is not a fashion trend to let slip by! Instead, slip into a pair of these feminine pants and play with adding fun colors and embellishment to add spunk to the ensemeble!

Isabel Marant's Heavy Footwear

Though it is only a few days into July, I have an obsession that is very much geared towards Fall and Winter! I know, I know it sounds rather 'zarbi' as the Parisians say (crazy), but once you feast your eyes on these decadent pieces you will yearn for the leaves to fall just so that you have a legitamate excuse to spend your money (wisely, of course) on Marant's chained footwear!

Isabel Marant, a French designer, mainly focuses her lines (both shoes and clothing) on bohemian inspired moods. She layers her clothing and focuses on heavier materials such as leather and suede in her footwear. Usuing chains and spikes Marant has mastered the art of attention grabbing, yet designs wearable pieces! She is a 'must' on my very focused list of 'gotta have' items!
