Nike recently dropped its M2K Tekno sneaker available in a range of 7 colors. The shoe features a combination of upper and lightweight foam cushioning for stretch, support, and plush comfort. We are opting for all white, as you can never go wrong with a pair of freshies. Versatile, the new M2k Tekno’s are all-purpose and can be worn for working out, with a pair of oversized denim’s or trackies and even your go-to summer dresses.

We’ve searched high and low for the perfect pair of Cargo pants and after some serious scouting has gone for the Cobra pant by I.AM.GIA. High waisted with an elasticated leg opening and removable chain accent, the pants are multiple-purpose and can be worn in many ways to achieve different looks. If you are going for an athletic look, rock with a sport’s bra and sneakers, if you are after a more girly vibe, pair with some strappy heels and tan top or body suite.

Have you started to pick up on the ruched and puffy sleeves, button or lace up, tops we are seeing everywhere? These are referenced as the “prairie” or “milk maid” trends but to me are an evolution of the off the shoulder or corset pieces that have been extremely popular over the years. This summer, split into your prairie top of chose and pair with a denim skirt, high waisted jeans or cargo pant for the full effect.
