Hi Everyone!
I am SO grateful for a restful and relaxing day with the amazing Toby! I meant to make this post yesterday, but the day got away from me. So, here is my “Statement Shoes Sunday” post a day late. Clearly, I love alliteration! I am SOOOO in love with the statement boots and shoes that multiple retailers have released lately. I love the idea of allowing shoes to serve as the focal point of an outfit. And, I love the idea of pairing denim on denim and letting the shoes stand out as the “pop” of an outfit.
Here are a few of my favorite statement shoes that have been recently released (affiliate links below):
And, here are IRL pictures of the J. Crew Fiona Kitten Heel Boots in Glitter and the Dulci Closed-V Kitten Heels in Leather . I sized up a 1/2 size in both from a 9 to a 9.5 to account for the toe box since the shoes have pointed toes:
Finally, a note about the blazer in the next to last image in this post. I LOVEEEE this blazer and I love how J. Crew styled this beauty with polka dots! I highly recommend this entire outfit. I took my normal size 14 in the blazer and my normal size 32 in the jeans. The jeans are characterized as a “slouchy boyfriend fit”; however, I would not recommend sizing down. I tried the size 31 and they were too tight. I took my normal size XL in the polka dot blouse. The combination is such a fun, unexpected pairing. The polka dots really pop against the herringbone pattern.
J. Crew also pairs this Crinkle Chiffon Smocked Top in Dot with the Wool Mini Skirt in Houndstooth. This look is super cute, too!
Here are the details for the outfit:
Thanks for stopping by and have a marvelous Monday!
Hi! I love the crinkle chiffon top. How was the fit? Did you find it to be true to size? Thanks.
Hi! I took my normal size XL, so fit is TTS!
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! It’s lovely. I’m definitely going to pick it up. 🙂
