Black sheer tights with ivory shoes?


We recently found out that TIGHTS are no longer the IT thing, but SHEER TIGHTS are....OK...sheer tights???? Come on...this is nothing more than stockings in our opinion. Anywho, we are the first to stand by "no rules" in fashion however, a great designer by the name of Michael Kors stated that your shoes should always be a shade darker than your pantyhose.
Both Nicky Hilton and Sarah Jessica Parker have done the exact opposite in the above photos.....so let us know your thoughts on (1) Sheer tights taking priority over the opaque tights and (2) what do you think about your pantyhose being darker than your shoes (more specifically, black hose with lighter shoes)?

Here's the scene....you have on one of the above swimwear or similar, you're on your way to a swim party but you forget something major...you need to run to the store to pick up this item....the store is in the mall or on a boutique strip, would you change or run in with your swimwear?

Colored Accessories

Martini Toast to a Splash of Color!


It's time to start shopping colors...yes, the 80s is back... Colored shoes and purses are the IT thing for this Spring. Remember, your purse and shoes do not have to match!




Who we spotted rocking this trend:


Just when you thought loud colors were out the door....Rihanna has been spotted several times with colored shoes. She is one true trendsetter that knows a good trend when she sees one. You can depend on Rihanna to rock the latest.


1) Katherine Heigl sports a yellow blouse with a deep red bag.
2) Molly Sims in a Diane von Furstenberg dress sports a bright red bag.
3) Victoria Beckham in a Marc Jacobs dress sports a bright red bag - one of her favorites - the Hermes Birkin, with deep red shoes.
4) Victoria again in Marc Jacobs top with a Chanel scarf, Hermes Birkin bag and Louboutin heels.


You should wear your shoes or purse without putting much thought into it, but to simply highlight an outfit. Think of it as a "splash of color" to brighten up your look. Below, we use Mary-Kate to show you how your bag doesn't need to match anything you're wearing. She also wears a purple and black scarf to add another splash to her decor.
