Micolle opens the door to summer<\/p><\/div>\n

Red Shoe Style Maven Micolle Canido<\/a>\u00a0checks in with 5 summer style sizzlers that work for any budget.<\/p>\n

MICOLLE: Hi Ladies…..It\u2019s officially time to kick off Summer!<\/p>\n

No better time to refresh your closet with 5 essential fashion staples to keep you cool (and stylish) in the warmer months.<\/p>\n

Bodysuits for Slim, Sleek, Smoothness<\/h3>\n

JLo can still rock a crop top at the ripe age of 46 but let\u2019s be real\u2026she\u2019s got the glam squad to help her look good in just about anything. Thankfully bodysuits have made a big comeback and there are a variety of styles for every age and shape. The fit is seamless and a sexy silhouette never hurt anyone. You can wear them with almost anything and you’ll never have to worry (again) about things untucking!<\/p>\n

The only two major drawbacks are bathroom breaks (bodysuits are right up there with jumpsuits) super annoying but they look great.Secondly, the ungodly sight of underwear lines can ruin a look completely. My advice is to try to find one where the bottoms are in a tanga (thong) style.<\/p>\n

Bring on the Summer Love with Sandals<\/h3>\n

Espadrilles have always been a staple in my summer wardrobe for as long as I can remember.They are chic and comfortable. Did you know that the first jute sandal dates back 4000 years ago? Ya \u2013 they\u2019re not going anywhere anytime soon.<\/p>\n

\"black<\/a>

Micolle loves these sandals<\/p><\/div>\n

It\u2019s no surprise Yves St Laurent took the espadrilles to a new level (literally) when he requested them made with a heel. So these days the choices are endless\u2026everything but the jute! Having said that, this season my eyes fell in love with another sandal on the opposite end of the spectrum. This chunky low heel adorned with gold studs gives off just the right amount of edginess for me. The best part is the removable sling-back strap.<\/p>\n

Sunglasses Always Make Style Statement<\/h3>\n

The one thing I can\u2019t live without on a daily basis and especially in the summer months are quit frankly the blinking<\/em> obvious\u2026sunglasses! I feel like a kid in a candy shop when I go to a sunglasses store. Fun to try on and they make the perfect accessory. I have two classic options that I stick with\u2026for good reason\u2026I need prescription lenses to see!<\/p>\n

\"Summer<\/a>

Sunglasses are Micolle’s summer style statement<\/p><\/div>\n

I wear the classic aviator for the chill and relaxed bohemian days and the wayfarer for when I\u2019m a bit more polished and put together. They never get old.<\/p>\n

Ahoy – Matey’s!<\/h3>\n

And what\u2019s summer without something nautical? I personally prefer a long sleeved horizontally striped top over anything else because I like to carry over the look into the early fall underneath a blazer. While I do believe stripes are tricky and can easily be unflattering\u2026here are a few rules to stick to:
\n1. If you\u2019re like me and have narrow shoulders and a smaller bust a crew or v-neck with horizontal stripes works well.
\n2. A large bust or wide hips can be very tricky to work with. For the bust try a stripped blazer with one solid color underneath from top to bottom. A bandage style dress with strips going on an angle and not straight across the derriere offer great camouflage.<\/p>\n

\"Striped<\/a>

The striped nautical top works summer after summer!<\/p><\/div>\n

3. I have yet to see horizontal stripes look good on anybody\u2019s thighs. If anything, you may make it on the \u201cwhat not to wear\u201d list. There really is no need to even entertain that thought.<\/p>\n

Sensuous, Sexy Summer<\/h3>\n

My favorite body part on a woman has always been the decolletage. There\u2019s just something to be said for sun kissed shoulders that look so feminine and sultry in a off-the-shoulder blouse. It\u2019s one of those pieces when picked in a neutral shade looks great with a wide range of denim and when you want to dress it up\u2026simply tuck it into a pencil skirt. If your feeling a little shy\u2026a great alternative to the off- the-shoulder top is the cut-away-shoulder top. They come in the form of sweaters, blouses, even dresses and look great on everyone\u2019s shoulders…no matter what your age. I recently pulled out a black vintage Halston that\u2019s perfect for cooler summer nights. A great piece to bring along for a weekend getaway for all the right reasons.<\/p>\n
