What We're Loving: Espadrilles!

It's time to get rid of the flip flops and flats, girls.  Going out with friends? On a date? Or do you simply need a cute accessory to tie your look together?  Espadrilles are what we’re loving right now!  This cute shoe is perfect for every outfit and every occasion.
Espadrilles have been around since the 14th century and continue to be one of the hottest looks out there.  The word espadrille comes from the Catalan name for a tough Mediterranean grass used for making rope.  The outsole of the wedge is woven, which is perfect for a summery look.  Original espadrilles were made with laces to tie up the ankle for support.  This adds to the sexy lace up look that we often see in Tory Burch’s collections. 
This look has been sported around Hollywood by some of our favorite stars,  including Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Aniston, and even Katie Holmes.  If you're wondering what to pair these adorable shoes with, we've got some tips! Wear your espadrilles with a printed airy dress for a Bohemian look, or throw on your favorite flowy top with a pair of shorts for a cute, laid-back look.  Perfect for a night out with the girls!

The best part about this shoe is that it is made by practically all designers and can always be found for less! Some places to find this hot look for Summer 2010 for less are T.J Maxx, Forever 21, Marshalls, DSW, Kohl’s and Target.  Looking to spend a little more? This shoe is also made by Tory Burch, Jessica Simpson, Steve Madden, etc.

Fashion Friday

On our recent venture in the world wide web, we stumbled upon a new iPhone app created by NIKE. the description seemed pretty cool but once we saw the video, all of us here at the BFF office wanted to drop everything and use the app NOW! Those of us who didn't have an iPhone wanted to get one immediately, just to use this app.

What's so great about it? Well, not only can you and your BFF design some cool kicks, you can also order them and have them shipped right to you! How cool would it be to have custom kicks designed? You and your BFF could match or you could create it as a gift!

Don't believe us? Check out the video below :



Trust us, you'll be on this thing for hours. Enjoy!

;)
