H&M black ankle high heels

H&M Vegan Leather Pointed Toe Boots

Women are constantly searching for new shoes. If paired with the correct outfit and completing it, shoes can definitely give you confidence and enhance your appearance. In today’s post, I would like to share with you my newest fast fashion piece, a pair of pointed-toe boots.

I’ve been guilty of purchasing items because they can go with almost any outfit, from chic to casual. And that’s how these pointed-toe boots ended up in my hands. I just felt that I needed to add them to my wardrobe collection of shoes. Sometimes nothing feels better than a new elegant pair of pointed-toe boots. You can easily combine them with a pair of jeans and a cute top, and you will be ready to go out with your girlfriends. I absolutely love them!

<h2>What is fast fashion?</h2>

One of my primal, well, call it the main idea when I established this blog was to pair high-end clothing with some cheaper fast-fashion pieces. Zara, Mango and H&M are my favorite places to shop. Their local shop displays are regularly updated, and in their online stores you can find new products almost every week. Zara is one of the most prominent fast-fashion brands with stores in more than 95 countries and has been at the forefront of this fashion retail revolution. Immediately after comes H&M, the second-largest multinational clothing retail company. They both offer a fusion of trendy and chic clothing and accessories at affordable prices.

Although I’ve tried to shop in many other fast fashion stores such as ASOS, New Look, River Island and Oysho, I definitely prefer to visit and revisit the Zara and H&M stores. No matter where I go they are always prominent and easy to reach. Fast fashion pieces are usually attempting to the eye, but often offer lower quality items than big, already established high-end brands as for example Bikkembergs, Furla, and The Bridge already presented on my blog.

     

When Sporty Meets Chic Elegance

When Sporty Meets Chic Elegance

Let’s talk about the combination of the elegant and sporty styles. But first, a short introduction of who I am. After the few initial articles about the timeless wisdom advices by notable women, why women love shoes and a autumnal long lasting fragrance it’s time to share with you my very first look. I am excited to post these pictures and introduce myself to my readers.

For a long time I’ve been following my favorite fashion blogs, reading through them daily. I always wanted to create something myself and I’ve finally decided to start my own blog. My name is Aurora Berill and I’ve launched Elegance of Luxury, my little creative corner, with the idea to share my stylish outfit inspirations, beauty advice and guides on a variety of topics. You can find more information about me in my About section.

The sporty meets chic elegant style is one of the latest trends, sometimes tricky and challenging to combine but when you manage to pull it off it looks great! If you want to create a somewhat formal feeling then try to stick with a natural subdued color scheme, in this case I went with a monochromatic silver beige. Beige is a light and neutral color that describes pale and light brown shades, one of my favorite colors lately. When it comes to combining different garments it’s all about balance. Here I am combining pieces of similar colors and I don’t play much with high contrasts.

The Sisley basic half button tee and Calliope linen shorts are all beige and fit perfectly with my Chanel silver stud logo earrings. I add in some contrast with the H&M sunnies and black studded leather bag, but not too much. Adding to the sporty look I wear Kappa low top sneakers, which fit perfectly with my initial idea to create a perfect modern minimalist outfit for contemporary women. To complete the look I went with a straw hat with removable brown leather strap and added a splash of color with the turquoise necklace.

During the summer, try to pay attention to the materials used in your clothes. It’s better to stick with light natural fibers like cotton and linen. Synthetics won’t breath well during the hot days and that can lead to rashes. Have you ever tried combining stylish with sporty looks?
