Spring Sandals and Accessory Trends | Don’t Worry They Just Look Expensive

I found accessory trends and spring sandals that give women of all ages that feel-good fashion fix. Don’t worry, it just sounds expensive. My spring fashion forecast is attainable for everyone and gives women of all ages that feel-good fashion fix. Get the best of both worlds with my personal round-up of bucket list brands and the same look for less so you can decide which suits your lifestyle and budget the best. All 4 of the trends I’m highlighting here are part of my Resort Casual Capsule Wardrobe coming soon.

Accessory Trend #1 Spring Sandals With Unique Heels

Standout heels are making a fashion statement this season and are one of the hottest accessory trends this year. Here are two high-low outfits from my resort casual capsule wardrobe you can shop now.

The Nordstrom 6 chose a VINCE sandal as one of our six February Drop pieces. As an added bonus these stylish sandals are comfortable too.

These sandals are under $100 and are my #1 pick this spring. I love the square toe and clear strap that keeps them from clonking when I walk. I got them in black but they come in 5 colors including hot pink and bright blue.

This 2.5″ block heel from Franco Sarto is available in 7 fantastic colors. Thank you to all who watched this Coffee in My Closet and voted on which ones I should keep. I added a strip of this padded tape along the seam on the bottom of the toe strap to prevent blisters. The drugstore tape also works great on shoes with rough edges that rub your heels when you walk.

These aren’t your basic black sandals.

Accessory Trend #2 Woven Bags

Woven bags are pretty and practical. Of all the accessory trends I’m sharing this is my favorite. I have a big crush on this mini Marni tote. It adds personality and style to a simple outfit, like a little white dress from my Resort Casual Capsule Wardrobe.

MARNI

STEAL OR SPLURGE?

There is obviously a big difference in price and quality between these 2 bags. When you’re deciding which one makes the most sense for you make sure to factor in the 4 L’s.

AMAZON FASHION FINDS FOR LESS

Add a pop of color to your capsule wardrobe with a fun tote that works on the airplane, shopping, or by the pool. With more than 25 colors to pick from for under $60, you may want more than one.

Classic sunnies, like the ones I shared in this post when I shared six vacation essentials you can get any time of year, are always a good idea. This year retro style shades are trending. What’s old is new again so try a pair of oversized ombre frames, colorful rectangle frames, or metal hear-shaped sunnies.

Every capsule formula comes with a unique high-low mix of brands. You'll also get professional personal styling suggestions that will help you choose the best fits and variations of each style.
