Accessories Report | Barbara Bui Exotic Glamour

I love animal skins so you can imagine how happy I was when Barbara Bui decided to do snakeskin shoes and handbags in candy colors. I especially like the chain-link details very edgy but still ultra glamorous. These accessories will look stellar with a little white bandage dress or an embellished sheath.

Jump On it… Harajuku Style

Fashion is about trends, but style is about making it your own. Japanese Harajuku girls are notoriously known for their coveted individuality. Want a piece of Tokyo inspired glam? Buy a pair of Jump “Sonar” sneakers. These sneakers are not only my personal favorite, but were also seen on celebrity comedian Sarah Silverman. Wear them with a denim skirt and tube socks for that cute, athletic look. The wedge is extremely comfortable, and is perfect for petite girls who want some extra height. You can even wear them with your favorite pair of jeans when you’re just not in the mood for strappy sandals. These shoes come in various sizes and four different colors (beige, brown, white, and the ultra popular black). If the shoe fits, why not buy it in every color?

Jump sneakers are only one brand that you can find on the What A Pair! website. What a Pair! is a wonderful place to find ballet flats, sneakers, boots, and sandals. They even have “vegan” shoes for the chic, yet environmentally conscious woman. With a wide variety of styles and prices ranges, there is definitely something for everyone. Remember that you can never have enough shoes; they add versatility to your wardrobe.
