10 Rules for Effortless, Everyday Style

In this series, I share some simple tips for leveling up your daily looks.

Spring is in the air, and if you need a shoe refresh, I’m happy to say that I have a limited time 20% off code for Freda Salvador!! Use code NATALIE20LA for 20% off full priced items (INCLUDING BAGS!!). This code will be valid from 2/29-3/5 and can be used by both new and returning customers

Here are my top picks, plus some styling ideas below…

  • ROMA Ballet Flats: This is their new rounded toe ballet flat and I love the simplicity of it. They are giving me a pair to try, and I selected the ivory color since I don’t have any flats in that color in my wardrobe. I will let you know how they are once I try them! If they’re anything like the JADA, I know I’m going to love them.
  • JADA Ballet Flats: No surprise here, I LOVE THESE!! I wear mine way more than I ever imagined and they are super soft and comfortable. I have these in black, tan and gold and they come in lots of other colors, too! I take my usual size in these.
  • ELBA Penny Loafer: My favorite color of these is finally back in stock — hickory croc! These fit true to size for me, but there is a little break-in period. Definitely wear them around the house with socks a few times before taking them out on the town. They come in several other leathers, but this one is my all-time favorite.
  • MIKO Tote: This tote is absolutely gorgeous, and so practical. It holds a ton and is definitely built to last! I have the hazel suede, but it also comes in a classic black leather.
  • RUBY Bucket Bag: I don’t own this yet, but a few of my friends do and I’ve also had the chance to see it in person and it’s really well made. I love the shape and that it can be a handheld or a crossbody bag.
  • LIBBY D’Orsay Sneaker: My favorite color of these is the stucco suede, and I also have these in white. Just a cool, modern, comfortable everyday sneaker, and it fits true to size.
