Shorty with Flats

I'm short.  I like to say I'm of average height...being only 5'0 feet or maybe 5'1...ok maybe not average.  Yes, I'm on the shorter side.  I've always been told that by my mom that I need to always wear heels - to elongate my legs, which I completely agree with; however, I love wearing flats, especially my new Givency Zip-Detailed Ballet Flats.

Givency Fall 2012 collection

This first caught my eye because of the detailed zipper line and the bit of heel that it has. 

It's an absolute beauty, isn't it? 

It also comes in a nude or even a leopard print, but I chose black because you can't go wrong with black.  Check it out here!

zip me upppp!

My friend and I were on a search for some new pair of pants and I noticed a certain trend coming back.

I wouldn't call it a throwback just yet but it has popped up on the trend radar periodically. 

ANKLE ZIP SKINNY JEANS!

I saw it on quite a few manikins while I was walking around down town Vancouver's shopping district. 

The picture below are some from ZARA

Detailing in denim, like on any other clothing garment creates edge to an outfit. When it comes to denim jeans whether that be studs, rips, a certain wash or ZIPPERS, it lets the eyes follow them instead of certain insecurities you may have toward how the jeans are fitting your body! 

Jeans are like the trickiest buy, the chances of you finding a pair of jeans that hugs your hips, bum and thighs perfectly ALL at once are pretty slim to many people out there. At least I'm one of those people, so I am all about different detailing! 

I am currently hooked on Zara jeans, this would be my 3rd pair. I think they are the most flattering on my big thighed legs. I can't wait to wear them out! 

To bring out the zipper I paired the jeans with my luxury rebel pumps! 

What's brand of jeans fits your body like a glove???
