STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Birkenstocks are Back

What makes fashion so interesting is that it is always evolving. Trends from different decades have a colossal impact on what we wear today. Just think, skinny jeans, midi skirts and even high-waisted shorts all come from a different time period. In fashion, everything comes back around, even trends you weren’t so keen on. For me, that meant Birkenstocks. When I first heard of their revival, I was quite shaken. I remember the old, roughed up pair my mom had laying around in the back of her closet and wondered how something so comfortable could be considered cute. However, my opinion changed when I saw them on the runway. They were shown as stylish, sleek footwear that enhanced an outfit. However, these simple sandals are also the perfect shoes for a casual, everyday look.

This Fashionisto proved that Birkenstocks are back. His classic black pair are timeless and can be worn with everything. He styled his with a white polo and J.Crew jeans to keep the look minimal. These staple pieces make up a wardrobe and assemble to create an effortless outfit. This Fashionisto also cuffed his jeans to create his own personal touch, making the look even more RAD.

Next time you are looking for a new summer shoe, take some advice from this Fashionisto and think Birkenstocks. The unlimited outfit options these shoes will provide is unbelievable. If you want to dip your toe into the trend, try a less expensive option from Target. Trying new trends can be fun, and don’t worry, everything comes back around.
