Trends: Chunky Black Heels

So I know I'm constantly running "The Stylist" post series, where I bring up the "chunky black heel" a lot. And I realized...maybe that is too vague. What if they think I mean something absolutely horrible & not chic, like these. So no more confusion! Here are a pair of chic, sexy and ultra simple chunky black heels from Urban Outfitters. These are perfect for holiday and NYE outfits, because they are sexy & simple, and you can pair them with your crazy sequined dress or little red number without looking like you are doing too much!

Classics: Embellished Pumps

When I saw these, I immediately thought of those fabulous blue satin Manolo pumps that Carrie rocked in the Sex & the City movie. The thing I really like about this pair, is that no one will think you are rocking a knock-off Manolo like some other identical versions, this pump is unique & stylish. I purchased these myself - and let me say they look even better in person. Skip the $895 Manolo price tag and snatch these Tahari heels for under $100! They look amazing with skinny jeans for a casual outfit, and you can also pair them with a voluminous cocktail dress for a chic, expensive look!

Trends: Scrunch Socks & Heels

If you have been looking in fashion mags, watching runways or hitting the streets of NYC or Milan, you've surely noticed a trend: scrunched crew socks & chunky heels. I am absolutely in LOVE with this style...but realize it can be hard to find the right pair of heels with the right pair of socks to make-it-work. So here are some suggestions on how to get your sock on!

It is that time of year again ladies! Time to pull out (or go and buy) your adorable, lace-up oxford heels. Not sure how to wear them? Here are some ideas on wearing the oxford heels:

- Pair with scrunched up socks over tights or leggings for a European look
