SHOES

“There are two things you can never have too many of: good friends and good shoes!” 

From one shoe-addict to another,  Carrie Bradshaw’s quote can be music to my ears…

But don’t get me wrong, I do think you can have too many shoes. Back when I was in college, my roommate and I had a wall full of shoes. We not only shared a room, a bed, but we also shared shoes. Hence, it made perfect sense to build a wall of 200+ shoes just between the two of us.

Did we wear them all? Who knows… All I know is that it was a little excessive. Okay, a lotta! Let’s just say we probably had at least five of the same shoes in different colors. (I know, it was pretty bad — don’t judge!)

Luckily, I can say that since then we’ve both de-cluttered and learned to not place value on quantity and things. Hoarding is never a good idea. It’s true what they say, less is more.

It’s easy to get lost in a sea of shoes and I mean they’re nice and all. But, do you really need one in every color? I don’t think so.

For today, let’s stick to basics. If I had to own only 10 shoes, I’d stick to one of each. There’s some for every price-range and every event.

Here are 10 shoes every woman should own:

Classic Black Pumps

Classic Nude Pumps


Ballet Flats


Ankle Strap Sandals


Casual Sneakers


Summer Wedges


Statement Heels


Ankle Booties


Riding Boots


Rain Boots

From a fun night out, to a day outdoors… I think with one of each, you’re pretty much set for any occasion! Which one do you need to add to your wardrobe?

One of the reasons I love fashion is because it allows individuals to express their own unique style and personality. What begins as just a vision, slowly becomes a work of art you can wear. All you have to do is pair the right pieces together — because after all, it is all in the details.

As a fashion blogger, it’s no surprise that I find the process so fun. Searching for the right fit, style, and color — there’s a sense of gratification when it all comes together. Some may call it vanity or trivial, but I strongly believe that fashion has the ability to accentuate a person’s inner beauty and boost their self-esteem.

If you’ve been following my posts, you’ve probably noticed that I try not to spend a ton of money on clothes. For the most part, I shop at Zara (Actually, I shop way too much at Zara. I need to stop), Nordstrom Rack, even H&M and Forever 21. However, sometimes, I make exceptions and splurge on a few pieces. Don’t get me wrong, by splurge I mean a few hundreds. Not thousands!

Plus, I’m an avid believer that the right accessories can make, or break an outfit. Don’t you agree?

Lately, I’ve had an itch for a nice bag, or a good pair of shoes. So, instead of splurging I made a Mother’s Day gift guide with some very chic handbags and shoes ranging from $50-$500.

Think of them like the perfect finishing touch — because remember,  it is all in the details.

Hello, my name is Vannia and I have a woman crush…. Ahhhh, there, I said it!

Her  name is Olivia Palermo, and I’m pretty sure tons of other fashionistas also love this chic little lady. I pretty much spy on her on a weekly basis via all social media outlets, InstagramTwitter, you name it! Not only do I find this New York socialite absolutely stunning, but her style is always on point. And of course, her oh so handsome boyfriend makes a great accessory. ;) (Do I sound like a total nutso yet?)

Well, for Flair Miami’s first celebrity inspired post, I just had to feature Ms. Palermo, here she is wearing the white on white trend with pops of polka dots.

So who’s you celebrity crush or who would you like us to feature next?

Keep us posted… xoxo

Target does it again, yet another collaboration to look forward to! Once again, you can expect long lines and perhaps even some craziness, but it’ll sure be worth it for designer Phillip Lim.

This exclusive fall collection will include items in women’s and men’s apparel and of course you cannot have a Phillip Lim collaboration without some amazing  shoes, bags and accessories. The collection includes 100 versatile pieces that will range from $19.99 to $299.99 scheduled to be available in select stores and Target.com on September 15.  The concept of this collection had a simple and classy approach; Lim focused on looks ranging from morning, noon to night with a color palette of neutral hues just in time for autumn.

“One of the reasons I wanted to collaborate with Target is because I felt that together we could create a collection that would inspire – one that is cool and chic, but still very accessible,”  said Lim.

Oh and here’s a little extra information for you Flair fans:

  • Target will have NO quality restrictions this time. HUGE bummer, I know! Plan ahead and try to snag your items quick.
  • Handbags are NOT real leather. But then again, they are under $60 so…

Here are a few of my favorite items:
