5 ways to wear: Birkenstocks



One of the new trends that has popped up this spring is Birkenstocks. Some love them, some hate them. I personally love them. I got my pair in the mail about 2 weeks ago, and they haven't come off my feet yet! I've created 5 different looks to wear your birks with, they are really so versatile.

LOOK #1: GRUNGE

Birkenstocks
This first look is a little edgy. The black crop top could be easily switched out for a longer tank. Layering the tank with the flannel and the jacket, means this look is perfect for colder days in the spring and summer and even fall. This look can be worn to the grocery store, to class, or a nice picnic in the park. This look is perfect for an everyday outfit! The black birks are classic and go with everything, perfect for every day. 


LOOK #2: LAZY DAY

This second look also features the black birks. This classic neutral pair, paired with leggings and a slouchy sweater is perfect for a lazy day around the house doing chores, running errands, or class just like look #1. The lipstick can make the look a little fancier if you want to dress up leggings and a sweater. This is a look I would wear every day.


LOOK #3: BOHO

This third look accents the borks. Choosing them in a metallic color really makes them stand out. Pairing them with a neutral lace dress, and a jean jacket, keeps the focus on the shoes. The flower crown and pale lipstick add a boho feel to the look, and really keep the birks the center of attention. This look is perfect for a nice brunch, going on a walk in the park or really any activity; this look is so versatile. 


LOOK #4: PREPPY

Another look where the birks steal the show! Bright birks in pink or really any color, accent the neutral white jeans and chambray shirt. The delicate gold jewelry accents the look perfectly as well as adding the preppy feel to it. Chambray and White jeans are a classic look that screams prep. Adding in the fun birks gives the outfit some contrast, but still leaves the look preppy because of the pink color. This look is perfect for brunch, meetings, or errands. Again, so versatile. 


LOOK #5: EDGY

Birkenstocks

Another look with a fun pop of color via the birks! Red is such a fun color and really makes a bold statement. Pairing the red with black denim and white sweater, leaves the shoes the main focus, while also making the look a little more edgy. The red lip is perfect to balance out the red shoes, and pulls together the look perfectly. This look can be work to go get ice-cream, a museum, or even class. 


I hope these 5 looks inspired you to try out the Birkenstock trend that is popping up this spring. They are so versatile and there are so many colors and styles that everyone can find a pair to fit their style. Give them a try, they're so fun!

Pinterest Roundup

A gorgeous boho look to wear out this weekend, plus who doesn't love fresh flowers?!


Another super cute, relaxed look to wear out this weekend.

It's after the fourth, but such a fun patriotic look.

The image isn't what captured my eye but the comment on this pin: "Touch, between animals and humans, expresses love and is healing to those involved. I would love to see an elephant up close one day; to see, touch, and connect in spirit." I love the message and the connection between two species. 

Have a wonderful weekend lovelies!

First Post...

just a random selfie :)

For my first post I'm just going to introduce myself. I live in Seattle, WA and go to school at the University of Washington. I've always loved the west side of the state and the PNW. I love being outdoors and going on hikes. But another one of my passions is fashion and art. I hope for this space to be an outlet for all my creativity and a way for you to follow along on my college adventures!
