I love the topic of trends, especially “it” bags, because trying to figure out exactly where they come from is always so interesting to me. When trends typically came from the runway, “it” bags were made “it” bags because they were worn by a certain celebrity…and now things have moved in a bit of a different direction thanks to the handy dandy Internet. And today, we’re going to talk about it…all of it.
Emoticon jewelry, hashtag t-shirts, Internet slang accessories…it seems like the more social media sites we get, the more social media fashion options we have. After all, wearing an emoji around your neck is the new wearing your heart on your sleeve. #AmIRight?
You’ve heard me complain about sneaker wedges in about 80% of my posts that have been written since Marant decided they would be a thing, BUT that doesn’t mean I hate all sneakers. Converse Chuck Taylors (a classic), Saint Laurent leather sneakers (a new classic) and now things seem to be moving in a different direction in the sneakerverse…a slip-on direction.
No laces? No problem.
When you’re a blogger, no matter how big or small, you’re putting yourself out there. When you put yourself out there, you have to be prepared to be made fun of…at least a little. Now you can either let it bring you down or totally embrace it, and although today’s post is inspired by Shit Bloggers Wear (which mostly targets personal style blogs, which ChiCityFashion is not) I thought it would be fun to own up to my blogger faux pas…
Isabel Marant is known for designing the “it” shoes. First it was the Dicker boot, then the Bekett sneakers and now we have a new trendy friend in town — the Carol sandal.
