STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Stepping Into Spring

Boots are essential for those cold winter days, and when summer rolls around you live in sandals, but what about those transition weeks between the two? A classic pair of flats is the answer you’ve been looking for. Flats are simple, chic and will never go out of style.

When hints of spring start to poke through that cold winter weather, throw on a simple pair of flats. Flats stand out best when paired with skinny jeans. You can achieve a boho look or a tailored look depending on the flats you choose. Throw on a pair of neutral toned flats with a slightly pointed toe for a preppy, dressy feel. For a more laid back, bohemian vibe, try a sneaker-inspired pair like these classic Vans slip-ons. Once it really starts to warm up, pair either style of flats with a casual white shirt dress like this one. A crisp white shirt dress paired with bold flats like the ones this Fashionista is rocking instantly creates the illusion of an expensive designer look.

This Fashionista is sporting modern two-toned flats with a snakeskin detail on the back. Her flats take center stage when she pairs them with classic dark wash skinny jeans.
