Fanny packs, our dear dad's bag
They were really all the rage at the time. Paired with a bucket hat and white sneakers, we all have the cliché in mind. This style has been cursed for too many years. Today, carrying it over the shoulder is an inseparable part of going out. However, very practical and very casual, it remains a streetwear genre.
Moon-shaped leather shoulder bag
It literally goes with everything. The soft leather inside and out only contributes to the design and provides amazing durable quality that significantly extends the life of the bag. Monogram prints are very fashionable among luxury brands such as Dior and Gucci, which offers many shoulder bags.
The baguette-style shoulder bag
This accessory is worn under the shoulder and reminds us a lot of the handbag of the 90s and 2000s. It is very easy to wear with almost everything and will match perfectly with your party dresses.
The shoes
Flat shoes or heels?
That little extra that brings extra style to your outfits! The trend since 2019 is to tie the straps of our shoes over our pants or knee socks. A fashion that does not please everyone but which remains in the 2023 aspirations!
Flat fabric shoes
Women's sneakers have been enjoying their heyday for several years now! For a long time hated because considered streetwear and too casual. And if you are not convinced by a nice pair of sneakers you can opt for platform sneakers, they will be perfect with a long-sleeved shirt and a little bow tie for an offbeat style.
Spring summer 2023 models
This summer, like last year, mules are in fashion! With a flat or heel version. In terms of new features, the clog will reap all the laurels. It comes in all colors and styles. We also favor platform shoes, which are comfortable and modern. Biker boots are increasingly being combined with little summer dresses. Just like the sandal which had already conquered for several seasons paired with a simple long blazer and not with flower or sequin prints like the old fashioned one, because even if old school is the fashion of the moment we take the risk of be cheesy!
Colors to use
Summer colors are soft and pastel is in the spotlight, however be careful to combine pastel which can quickly look faded or outdated. Silver is also popular whether for ankle boots, sandals, ballerinas or moccasins. For flat or heeled sandals, it's white that brightens up your evening outfits or your pretty summer shirts! Turquoise, sky or pastel, blue will be one of the strong colors of the season.
Jewelry
A slit neckline or your revealed back and your hair pulled back which gives you this elegant look deserves a maxi long necklace which will sublimate you day and night. This fashion element is the best choice to complete that evening dress that you like so much. But choosing the right jewelry is not an easy task. The choice of your haircut, the print of your shirt and even the color of your man's suit are criteria that can be taken into account. There are a multitude of choices available to you.
