Thinking of Gifts for Christmas? Sexy Ankle Boots It Is!

Wednesday, November 10th, 2010

We here at MakeMeChic.com offer you the perfect gift for your friends and family: ankle boots. Sporting the hottest styles in ankle boots will definitely wow the crowd. With the different kinds of ankle boots available, how can you pick the perfect one? Here are some of the most stylish designs of ankle boots.

Lace-up ankle boots – Lace up ankle boots rock and often reflect street style. Mixed with sweet dresses and skirts, lace-up ankle boots present an interesting option for fashion-forward gals. While high-heeled lace-up ankle boots are more feminine and sexy, the flat ones are cool and chic. Some lace-up ankle boots have embroidered details while others may sport faux suede. Biker chicks can also wear lace-up ankle boots in real or faux leather. Take into consideration the personality of the lady whom the gift is for to help you choose a specific style and design.

Vintage ankle boots – Vintage style, whether its jewelry, clothes, or footwear, never goes out of fashion. Often inspired by the 50s and 60s, thick heels and nostalgic colors are vintage trademarks a true vintage shoe lover won’t miss.

Leather ankle boots – Winter is the best time to wear ankle boots everywhere and anywhere because ankle boots are also functional. Leather ankle boots can keep your feet warm. The best options would be suede and sheepskin because of their warmth and comfort.

Ankle boots come in a whole gamut of fashionable styles. From military ankle boots to peep toe ankle boots, and buckled ankle boots to buttoned ankle boots, MakeMeChic.com proudly gives women a huge selection of chic and up-to-the-minute ankle boots everyone will love.

Lovely Lace!

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

The delicate beautiful fabric of lace is back in so many ways. DKNY’s Resort 2010 Collection donned this beautiful black lace dress with lace tights and high heel platform shoes. With lace being the new must have item in your closet, why not bring the fabulous fabric into your shoe rack as well?

Underneath blazers and great jackets, a detailed lace top is the perfect shirt to wear underneath. The sheer material is being embraced as is, so with feminine patterns in the shapes of flowers in the lace, the lace is able to channel elegance in its material alone.

Whether the lace is worn as a dress, a shirt or as tights, or even all together, its textures complement each other to create a young Victorian look on its own. Lace has been worn in a variety of ways, whether it’s in a punk rock glam way, elegant and sophisticated, or fun and spunky. The lace material has allowed us women to really take it to any level we want.

When lace is this fabulous, why not find some women’s dress shoes that offer the same details as your lace shirt or skirt? Make Me Chic has an affordable collection of lace shoes that are your new trendy women’s dress shoes to wear when you’re on your way out to paint the town with your girls!

With your typical high heel shoes to leaf through while piecing your outfit together, it’s time to give your collection a fresh lift by having your pair of lace high heel platform shoes. Lace high heel shoes are something new and different for you to flaunt on your feet. We all have our solid leather heels, or our studs and sparkly details. But how many of us have the lace heel that is so versatile and able to bring a level of class to any outfit?

Jessica Dazzles in Sequins and Gold!

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010

These days, the stars hitting their movie premiers are shutting it down! First with Drew nailing it wherever she’s at, and now Jessica Alba!

Jessica Alba often receives mixed reviews from fashion critiques and has had her days of glory and her days of questionable glances while walking down the red carpet. But at this week’s premiere of her new movie Machete, Jessica Alba brings all critics to a silence while strutting her stuff in a gold and black sequined Balmain dress at L.A.’s movie premiere event.

I imagine that stars often scramble to have their stylists choose an array of women’s dresses to make them stand out. After Balmain’s fantastic Fall 2010 show, the gold dresses they debuted have been peeking out all over magazines and the red carpet.

Fashion designers have taken notice of the recent trend in the gold and sequins, and followed suit with an endless supply of fashionable women’s dresses that still shine just as bright as the beautiful Balmain line itself.   

The fun zigzag pattern on the dress that Alba wears gives her the edge to go to a more funky and fun style of high heel to wear to match. The obvious and most complementary color to wear with such a bright and cool dress would be black high heels. But rather than wearing closed toe black high heels, which still would have been fabulous with that dress, Jessica Alba chose to wear a strappy number with a peep toe that gives your feet enough air to breathe and keeps you at least a couple degrees cooler in this sweltering Los Angeles heat.

Also, an interesting take on this whole look, whether Alba or her stylist was the one responsible for it, the lines of the high heels and the lines on the Balmain dress do not cross in the same way, but yet, they do somehow form a knowing partnership to tie in the look together. Again, not everything needs to be so matchy-matchy, so don’t abstain from grabbing your strappy shoes when wearing a busy number.

Wearing Ankle Boots the Right Way (Part I)

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

Ankle boots come in a lot of different styles. Some ankle boots are embroidered with lace while some have studded straps. Other ankle boots have fur while there are those with chains. One thing is for sure: every woman knows that ankle boots are a must-have fashion staple. Just like other fashion must-haves, ankle boots have to be worn the right way and paired with the right type of clothing.

Ankle boots can make legs appear shorter and wider, an effect that only tall girls can probably appreciate. Petite and curvy women should typically avoid this. So what’s the solution to this problem? Here are some tricks women can use for ankle boots to accentuate their looks instead of emphasizing the wrong body parts.

For women who are slim but aren’t exactly as tall as Kate Moss, don’t lose hope. Ankle boots can still help you achieve a long line. Ankle boots have heels attached to them and will certainly add a few inches to your height. The trick though is to find ankle boots that cover your ankles instead of exposing them, making legs look choppy and short.

Additionally, women with slim calves and ankles can wear ankle boots to lengthen the legs as opposed to ankle boots with cuff details. Slim and petite women can pair ankle boots with short dresses, cuffed shorts, and bubble skirts – basically any outfit that shows your legs. Opaque tights that match ankle boots are also an option to create the illusion of having long legs.

There are other options for petite and curvy women to wear ankle boots and look tall. First, pick ankle boots with a pointed toe to give the illusion of a long line. Pair it with a semi-voluminous A-line skirt ending just above the knee to emphasize your curves. Keep in mind that petite and curvy women should not wear skirts that fall past the knee because this will give you a shorter appearance. Another option could be to pair ankle boots with dark wash denim jeans that have flaired or wide legs.

More and more women are investing in ankle boots. Paired with the right legwear, ankle boots can beautify women and make them look taller.
