Rites of Spring

by: Sacha Phillip | May. 18, 2007

 

Five items you’ll need to step out in style this season:

1. The New Flat. Now that designers are no longer saving the delicate details for heels alone, the flat has emerged as an all-occasion shoe. This spring, try a peep-toe flat like Loeffler Randall's Coco.

2. The Shiny Heel. Keep shining even after the sun has set, in a pair of sleek, slick patent pump. The naughty sheen amplifies the sex appeal of the most basic heel like Aldo's Ursa.

3. Refined Denim. The denim evolution continues! The trouser jean is the latest must-have, but we believe that it’s destined to become an instant classic. Go sophisto in Anlo’s Mara Denim Trouser.

4. A Halo (Of Sorts) . The headband isn't just back, it's here to stay! For a look that's playful, yet elegant, tie on one of Hermes' twillys.

5. The 60s Throwback. As the weather warms up, show some leg in a patterned micromini dress. The inhibited can toss one over a pair of close-fitting clam diggers or wide legged linen pants, for a rich-hippie look. We are loving Milly's Waikiki dress.
