Murphy’s Law of Fashion #235: Just when you perfect your ‘summer look’ it becomes fall. Which is why you’ve set your sights on The Chelsea Boot. From the runways in London to the streets of LA, to the feet of celebs like Kate Moss and Jennifer Aniston, the chelsea boot is the answer to how to intelligently invest in the in-between season.
You two have been through your ups and downs. And looking back it seems to be seasonal. This fall try something new with your skirt – The Tea-Length. Sometimes referred to as a midi or prairie, the tea-length’s hem hits a few inches above the ankle to right around mid-calf. Spotted on celebs like Carey Mulligan, Anne Hathaway and Scarlett Johansson, this season it’s a statement in leather, pleats and patterns.

Recently spotted on celebs from Kim Kardashian to Kate Moss, this retro-chic accessory has been all over the runways from Lanvin to Dior.
If your feet could talk, they’d have a lot to say… but mostly: Eff you. Excuse their potty mouth (afterall they did get it from you), but they think it’s really rude that you strap them in five-inch-high torture chambers and make them schlep about town day in and day out. Get back into their good graces with this season’s hottest shoe trend: The Flatform.
Simple math: the success of your night out exists in inverse proportion to the height of your heels? The higher the stiletto, the lower your mood plummets once you hit your pain threshold. Not that you would have it any other way. But what if you could have your wedges and wear them, too? It’s not just a fantasy anymore, especially with the Cork Wedge making its way back into our summer wardrobe.
If knowing that you look a little like the Marlboro Man in your old 501’s doesn’t make you grab them off the closet floor for your date with Mr. Right, what will? Get rid of your denim blues and swap those old bootcuts for Bell Bottoms, Spring’s newly resurrected “it” style.
