TREND ALERT

Memorial Day has come and gone, and there is no denying that Summer is finally upon us. As you pack away your Fall sweaters and pull out that box full of tank tops and sun dresses that you've been saving (we all have one), you might find that your old go to favorites are a little out of style. You don't need to buy a whole new warm weather wardrobe to look current. Try adding just a few trendy pieces to update your old staples and finish off the look with the perfect Summer footwear. Need a little inspiration? Here are a few of my favorite trends for this Summer, and the Miss Meers shoes I want to wear them with!

Culottes

Yes, you heard me right. Whether you loved them or hated them, culottes are back this season in full force. We're trading in our seventies denim for something a little sleeker like this rayon pair from Splendid. Wear them with a basic tank top and some ankle strap sandals and you've officially taken this trend into the 21st century.  Here I put them with the Jeffrey Campbell "Hough" and some sassy sunglasses.

Kimonos

The kimono trend is one of my favorites this season, because it is so easy to adopt. Throw one over a plain top and pull on your favorite jeans and you instantly look stylish. The Swedish Hasbeens "Tudy Fruity" is the perfect way to complete this sweet and funky outfit.

Wide Leg Jeans

Put away your skinny jeans, this Spring it is all about the flares. If you're anything like me, you've gotten attached to your skinny jeans. Take my word for it, you need to give flared jeans a chance. Want your legs to look miles long and your waist to look smaller? You might want to give your skinnies a break for a while. Add a platform like the Splendid "Grand" for even more leg lengthening magic, and a Matt and Nat bag in a Spring friendly color. 

Sneakers

How can you not love a trend that is as comfortable as it is cute? Sneakers aren't just for the gym anymore. They can add a sporty vibe to your everyday wardrobe. I love the Lacoste "Helene" to add that perfect pop of color. Pair with black jeans, a graphic tee, and some sunglasses.
