MODEL BEHAVIOR

Miss Meers Bridgeport

Thanks to social media, models these days are more famous than ever. People everywhere are finding just as much inspiration from their fashion off the runway as they are from the designer digs they wear on the job.

Want to steal your favorite model's street style look? Today I'm making it easy for you! I picked out six pairs of brand new Miss Meers shoes I think these models (and you) would LOVE! Lets go!

Gigi Hadid: Jeffrey Campbell "Nuestra Bootie"

If you haven't heard Gigi Hadid's name before, you've definitely seen her! Gigi is killing the fashion game right now as the face of Maybelline, Topshop and Guess just to name a few. She's also made appearances on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (her mother is Yolanda Foster) and shown up on stage at Taylor Swift's 1989 World Tour. With 5 MILLION followers on her Instagram (and counting), Gigi is definitely someone worth paying attention to. Capture her California girl look with the Jeffrey Campbell "Nuestra Bootie".

Joan Smalls: Vince Camuto "Corra"

Joan Smalls is basically the definition of personal style. Her off runway looks are always notable in the seemingly effortless way she combines feminine and edgy pieces while still looking elegant. You might recognize her from the last FOUR Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows or her recent Vogue cover. Joan was also the first ever Latina to model for Estée Lauder (she's from Puerto Rico!). The Vince Camuto "Corra" is the perfect combination of edgy and girly. Cute for work or play!

Cara Delevingne: Frye "Sacha Moto Shootie"

Cara (not Carla)  Delevingne is known for being unique. She bravely defies stereotypes and denies labels in an industry known for doing the opposite. While she's been seen dolled up on the runway for designers from Chanel to YSL, her street style is a little more edgy. I think Cara would feel right at home in the Frye "Sacha Moto Shootie", and so would you! 

Karlie Kloss: Sam Edelman "Felicia"

It should come as no surprise that Taylor Swift's BFF shares her love of classic style. This former Victoria's Secret Angel is seen more often in comfortable flats and tailored pants than platform sandals and wings these days as she takes a break from modeling to start school at NYU this Fall. The Sam Edelman "Felicia" flat is the perfect shoe for Karlie, or any woman on the go. The soft leather gives you all day comfort and the black is sophisticated enough to brave the NYC streets.

Fei Fei Sun: Jeffrey Campbell "Oriley"

Fei Fei Sun made history in 2014 as the first Asian model to appear on the cover of the American Vogue September issue. Now she makes history everyday with her amazing street style. As a former fashion design major herself, Fei Fei sun is often seen rocking unique and edgy looks. Try Fei Fei's edgy style for yourself with the Jeffrey Campbell "Oriley" bootie!

Kendall Jenner: Frye Dylan Slip

Kendall first came into the public eye on a little TV show you've probably never heard of called "Keeping Up With The Kardashians". Although Kim has always been the most well known of the Kardashian clan, little sister Kendall has become a star in her own right thanks to modeling campaigns with big name designers such as Calvin Klein and Balmain. She also currently holds the title for the most liked picture on Instagram. Want to steal her sleek reality star style? Try the Frye "Dylan Slip"!

BACHELOR STYLE

Posted by Carly
Miss Meers Eugene

Its that time of year again where each Monday night my friends and I gather together in the living room to watch… THE BACHELOR! Some people watch for the drama, some people watch to see Chris without his shirt on, but working in the fashion world I can’t help but pay attention to the contestants outfit choices.

Bachelor women aren't exactly a perfect example of cutting edge fashion, unless you consider platform stilettos with a bikini risk taking style. Watching these women parade around in bad prom outfit after bad prom outfit, I can't help but wonder, "what on earth I would wear if I were a contestant?"

1. The "Classy Cowgirl"

Let’s face it, I’m a city girl, but I’d go a little country any day for Bachelor/“Farm Hunk” Chris Soules. Adding a little country twang doesn’t have to mean losing your sense of style. Perfect combination of classy and cowgirl? The Frye “Reina” bootie. With subtle touches of country and a feminine low heel, this shoe works both on and off the farm. I paired with the Current/Elliot Slim Boy Shirt and Stiletto Jean in white (both available in our Eugene store!).

2. The "Pool Party"

Since being a contestant on The Bachelor apparently also means looking like a swimsuit model, There is always at least one cocktail party per season that gets replaced with a pool party. While many of the girls choose to strut their stuff in high heels, I’d be more afraid of slipping and falling on a towel. My shoe of choice? The Bernardo merit. The white color will look awesome against your tan, and you’ll be comfy as well as cute. Throw on a bikini and a coordinating cover up and you're good to go.

3. The "Fantasy Suite”

This is it, you’ve suffered through countless group dates and rose ceremonies and finally you get some alone time with your possible future husband. Its time to go all out and stop being subtle. The Seychelles Frequency says "I deserve a rose" because it is literally covered in roses. Pair it with a white dress that says "bridal" without being too obvious and lots of sparkle. He'll get the hint! 

4. The "I Just Got Dumped on National Television"

Okay, so its down you and one other girl and you're pretty positive he's not going to propose. Make sure he knows its his loss. Slip on something daring and pretty like the Vince Camuto Trumen. This shoe pairs perfectly with a black romper and a statement purple lip. Hey, they might even make you the next Bachelorette!
