April

Sorry. Now I'm just going to post monthly because my schedule won't allow me to post weekly. (I'm really busy). This month is the SHOE post.

Outfit of the Month: One trend that you'll hear about later in the post is rolled-up jeans. Roll your jeans up to just before your knees. Wear a henley (you can get some great ones at Aeropostale) and wear gladiator sandals (which we'll be talking about later in the post.)

Second Outfit of the Month: (We'll be doing two outfits from now on) Wear skinny jeans with a V-neck (short sleeved) with flip flops. This is a casual look.

Accessory of the Month: SHOES!!!! I know that shoes aren't technically accessories, but this post we're talking about shoes a lot, so it fit in. Now that winter is over, you should wear a bigger variety of shoes. Try not to wear the same pair for more than three days in a row. The biggest spring shoe is the sandal, but later in the post I'll talk about different types of sandals and ways to wear them.

Hairstyle of the Month: Try low pigtails. If you have long hair, try curling your hair before you put it into pigtails. If you have shoulder-length hair (or slightly longer), straighten it. If you have hair that's shorter than shoulder-length it will be very hard to pull off low pigtails.

Okay now I'm going to talk about the ultimate spring sandal: gladiators. I just got a pair and every time I wear them I get a ton of compliments. There are a million ways to wear gladiators, so I'm just going to name 5. The first is, like we saw in the outfit of the month, with rolled-up jeans. The second is with skinny jeans. The third is with boyfriend jeans (Look in the latest issue of People Style Watch because they have a photo and tips on this look.) The fourth is a little bit harder to pull off but if you can get it it will look amazing. I saw a picture in People Style Watch of a girl who was wearing a black cami with a green skirt and a gold belt over the cami with gold gladiators and I totally fell in love with it. So the fourth look is a high-waisted skirt with gladiators. The fifth look is grey leggings with a long top and gladiators.

Other types of sandals you can wear:

• The kind that have jewels on them
• Ones with a wedge heel
• GLADIATORS

The next section is new ways to wear jeans. First of all, rolling up your jeans is completely cute for spring. Wear this with sandals or flip flops (or gladiators!!) The next way is to wear them with a cool belt. Wear this one with a shorter top so that the belt is showing. Also, just wearing them with a different shoe makes them look different. I'm assuming most of you have worn boots in the winter, so wearing jeans with sandals or flip-flops shows them in a whole new light.

Next month I want to try something new, but I need your help. Here's what you need to do: comment on this post and tell me your individual style. For example, my style is trendy-chic.
