Happy Friday all...DopeGirlNatalie
here. Hope your week is going great and you are enjoying the warmer
weather, although currently we are experiencing a little winter in
April. Hmmm, wonder where that came from as I tighten the scarf around my neck. LOL. For this post I chose to highlight the marriage of comfort and style in the form of the almighty moccasin.
Yes,
ladies & gentlemen, you need a good pair of moccasins in your life!
Keeping with the current trend, make sure they are a colorful pair at
that. 2 of my favorite things are style and comfort so thank you so very
much to the genius that created this wonderful treasure. We have all
worn a pair of moccasins in our day whether in childhood years or older.
It is no secret these are some of the most comfortable shoes out next
to slippers aka house shoes. Often dubbed the driving shoe, numerous
companies carry the moccasin as a staple such as Tods, Balenciaga, Tory Burch & Quoddy
Trail and one can cost in excess of $600 but trust there are more
affordable ones on the market. With summer around the corner, it would
be beneficial to stock up on a few. This is my go to shoe for those
extreme comfort days when a heel is not needed and a sandal just won't
do. The perfect accent for a day of shopping or lunch in the park...pick
a pair, a colorful pair and pop that color into your look. To all those
that say "oh I have nothing to wear with this," I say to you, get a
white or black tank, jeans and have a great day.
For those uber
creative beings out there, be different, grab some fabric paint and add
some colorful designs to a neutral pair or change the cording/string
for a unique touch. Knowing there are some who say they can not do a
flat shoe, you should...it will bless your life but thanks to Balenciaga
you can have your have heel and moccasin too, see pic below. To be
honest with you after seeing these beauties, I would rock them
too...what true fashionista wouldn't???
<------ I KNOW RIGHT!!!!! Shoegasm...OK
I am good now. I had to have a moment. When I get blessed with these, I
promise I will still rock them with a tank and jeans...let the shoe
speak by itself. The great thing about the moccasin is its universal and
yes, MEN, you can experiment with the bold color trend. It's a
beautiful thing seeing a man not afraid to incorporate color in his
wardrobe....think white linen with a slate blue, mustard or red shoe.
That is hot!!!!
So the moral of the story is
experience the comfort & play up your colorful style with a funky
pair of moccasins. Remember U NEED THIS N UR LIFE. Have an amazing
weekend, I know I will. -DopeGirlNatalie
