Go for gold in a pair of thong sandals

Saturday, March 22, 2014

Book your pedicure and get the pumice stones out ladies; your trotters need to look at the top of their game for the foot baring sandals that are a big trend this summer.
Today, Amy Adams got her feet out in some Tory Burch beauties in LA, which she styled with boyfriend jeans and a simple navy tee. The sandals have a cute bee decoration and are in a thong style - and no, we’re not talking about the underwear!

A thong sandal is one that has a strap that passes through the first and second toes, and exposes basically all of your foot. They’re perfect for really hot weather (which hopefully we’ll be experiencing this summer!), they're super comfy and they adapt to every style. A fashion no-brainer!
We were saddened to find that Amy’s shoes have already sold out, but we’ve found some similar golden wonders for our edit below. If you’re still hankering after a Tory Burch pair, we’ve included another pair from the designer, this time with an adorable flower decoration. Or, for something cheaper, go for ASOS's £12 bargain.

Work on your Victoria Secret bod in Rosie’s Nike trainers

If ever there was an inspiration to get yourself to the gym, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s body might be it. It would take three hours of cardio and two more of pilates a day to get her figure, but where there’s a will…
Well even if Rosie’s body is out of our reach, the good news is that her workout runners are easily accessible! You can get them from ASOS by clicking right, and we reckon they’re a great investment. They have excellent support and will add a pop of colour to your workout wardrobe - what's not to love?!

Plus, they’ll look marvellous with a pair of skinny jeans or, if you want to be super trendy and daring, a PVC skirt and a plain white t-shirt. Yes, if you haven't heard, sporty trainers are officially fashionable with any outfit - just look at the recent Chanel catwalk show!
Alternatively, we’ve picked for pink pretties for our edit below. Although we can’t guarantee they’ll give you a Victoria Secret Angel's body, they’re a great start to get your spring workout into action.

Pick up a peplum dress like Kim's

She might be queen of reality TV, but Kim Kardashian is also queen of the peplum. Once again, she steps out in a super structured dress that shows off her curves to perfection. And this time, it's one of her own... from the Kardashian Kollection.

But hang on, what's this? It's actually an old dress! You can't buy this one any more. Kim, it seems, is re-hashing some of her wardrobe. We've seen her do it time and time again lately, not that that's a bad thing - take our own Kate Middleton as an example on UK shores!
This dress has definitely got the va va voom factor. It's sexy sophistication, what with the flash of cleavage, the just-above-the-knee length and the accentuated waist panel.
Kim proves that we are not over peplums yet. Far from it. Only the other day did we spotted this Kardashian sister out in a similar style. We have to say, she works them very very well!

Keep up with Kim in co-ordinates by Calvin Klein

Fashion news flash! Kim Kardashian in a crop top and pencil skirt?
Of course, we have seen it all before and it’s pretty safe to say that Kim has found her signature style. In fact, she has even worn this exact outfit in the white version before. But we can see why she loves the look - that little flash of flesh is super flattering and shows off her curves to perfection.

Kim has had a huge influence on this trend. It's a bit like the fabled Kate Middleton effect (although we're not sure we'll see the Duchess of Cambridge in a co-ord combo any time soon!) and now every style maven worth their sartorial salt is trying it out. Only yesterday we spotted Millie Mackintosh debating the look in a Zara changing room.
This time Kim's knitted red combo is by Calvin Klein. Unfortunately, the top alone would set you back £1027, but it's actually now all sold out. Luckily though, we can all jump on the co-ord bandwagon for a fraction of the price on the high street. Look tip top in this crop combo from Topshop, or Love Label's ensemble is a total bargain and was worn by The Saturday's Vanessa White only last night

Wedding Princess

Well it's finally happened. All that petitioning of US Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour by Kanye West has paid off and he and Kim Kardashian have scored the cover of the style bible's April 2014 issue.

While Kanye gazes lovingly in the general direction of her shoulder - though admittedly his eyes may be directed a bit further down towards her enviable cleavage - Kim is resplendent in a Lanvin strapless fairytale style gown of ruched ivory.
We're not quite sure it it was custom made by Lanvin designer, Alber Elbaz, for the occasion but we suspect that this indeed may have been the case. Within the interior spread Kim also wears a feathered creation by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen which makes Fashion Finder think about the movie Black Swan. But we digress.
The whole concept of the shoot also makes us think about the first Sex and the City movie where Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie Bradshaw does her own Vogue wedding dress shoot before being spectacularly stood up at the altar by Mr Big. We're sure that won't happen in Kim's case though. The odds on divorce, however, should they happen to sell their wedding to Hello Magazine (unlikely) is another matter entirely.
For our own part we think the Coast dress is our favourite from the carousel. Now we just need to find someone to pop the question...
