Blue and white striped pieces have been an undoubtable wardrobe staple since Coco Chanel first introduced it to the fashion world during her nautical collection in 1917. But the print is becoming too familiar which makes me always looking for an alternative: it should be something new but as classic as the French stripe.
What is Bohemian Romance+Cowgirl Chicness+Parisian Elegance? For me, the answer is Isabel Marant!
People say she is the “French Alexander Wang”. For me, her collections are my “Casual Chanel”: if at formal and elegant side, Chanel tweed suits are my ultimate choices, then at casual and relax side, I will go with Isabel Marant. Her collections are fashionable yet practical, feminine yet edgy, casual yet chic.
Many pieces she designed are truly timeless: the trench coats, the knits, the shirt dresses… but today, I want to dedicate this post to my favorite: the ankle boots, especiallylight colored ones.
They are great transitional pieces to carry us between seasons; the nude color can elongate our legs; the comfy design is perfect for outdoor activities; the chic style can bring us from day to night.
Tons of celebrities chose Isabel Marant’s ankle boots. Among them, I especially appreciate the ways Miranda Kerr styles hers. Below are ways she wore them with denim pieces from jacket to mini skirt:
