Looking Studly This Season

Fall 2012 has brought back a little rock n roll in today’s hottest fashion trend…STUDS!!!  It used to be that only the big, bad rough and tough boys would be seen wearing scary studded black leather jackets, but not any longer.  Studs of all sizes and colors are appearing on shoes, boots, accessories, bags and apparel and they are HOT!  

Our favorite studded style is the Steve Madden Smoking Slipper covered in silver studs.  This comfortable shoe is designed for your everyday go-to shoe.  The beautiful silver studs gives this otherwise simple shoe just the twist of pizazz necessary to get you noticed.

Step out of your comfort zone with this new look and try heels with studs to dress up your outfit.  These look great with a solid color shoe with gold, silver or black hardware. Fergie, Jessica Alba and JLo all preferred the studded heels but with very different attire. Wear them with dresses, pants or even try shorts and skirts like Rihanna. 

On a colder day, have no fear, boots are showing up with studs in many brands and styles. These Steve Madden Tarney Boots are a perfect example of how this fashion statement is here to stay no matter what weather this fall brings us. 

Reese Witherspoon was seen rocking the same bag with studs in two different colors with two very different outfits. Notice how her clothes are conservative but have subtle touches of genius in them with the studs and pops of color.

It’s all about making a statement, ladies!  Remember, a little bit goes a long way. Whether it’s a studded flat, studded boot or a gorgeous leather bag with a splash of Rock n Roll, there is no doubt Studs are the way to go.

The Love Between Fall and Boots

It’s time for these “lovebirds” to be reunited. Summer (the break up season) is finally gone as of September 22^nd – the first day of fall. It’s no wonder why we love the two together. The weather starts to get a little chilly and a great pair of boots is right there to warm us up. Bring on the cool crisp breeze in the air!  I just cannot wait to slip on the latest trends this season. 

What we’ve seen so far in the fashion industry are:

Biker Boots

Wedge Boots

Chunky Heel Boots

Over-the-Knee Boots

Riding Boots

The greatest part about boots are how many different styles you can wear with them. Every girl should have a pair or two in her closet. They can dress up a casual outfit or dress down one of delicacy. Take a look at this picture of Lea Michele – better known as Rachel Berry from Glee – rocking boots with shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt. The options are endless!

Skinny jeans or leggings – pull them over. Boot cut or flares– wear them underneath. A favorite of mine, the Frye Phillip boot, looks great with a plethora of legwear. The Chocolate color with studs around the ankle gives off a biker vibe that is hard to ignore.

If you want to go with the dress and boot combo – another great duo– try a calf-height heeled boot. Jessica Simpson is wearing a very simple dress with boots that accentuate this chic outfit perfectly.

Maybe wrap a light scarf around your neck as well and walk out of the house feeling cute, warm and fashionably ready to take on a fall day feet first, with its lovebird – boots.

Add a pair to your closet and don’t keep these two separated any longer!

Everyone has their favorites but try stepping out of the box by shopping with OneLittleBox this season. Check out our current selection and keep your eyes open in the next couple of months while we receive new styles by Naughty Monkey, Steve Madden, Vince Camuto, Frye and Jessica Simpson.
