Texture is a must for Spring!

You must have texture this spring. It is so great to balance the softness of spring pastels with some edgy texture from an animal skin (faux of course), cork or even rope. These textures look amazing with all white, neutrals, any pastel  and vibrant colors as well. It brings sophistication to any basic outfit. Purchase a pair in a neutral color like browns, creams, gray and black and white.  This will make it easier to pair back color without clashing. Any style is fine. Do what you are comfortable with, but I sure do favor a wedge. 

                                           
 Today was a great example of how to outfit  using this. I wore a floral maxi skirt in pastels with my BCBG embossed leather skin wedge and a cork belt to add some texture. Without these accessories my ensemble would have been a bit more basic.


These are more examples of a textured shoe. Skin, roping and embossed leather.
