Gotta Have It...2014

I started this list well before NYFW, but it's been validated. So, here's a list of my "gotta haves" for 2014. Mind you, I won't be able to pull all of this off...but somebody should:


Backpacks

Whether high fashion or utilitarian, backpacks are back. Lately while traveling, I've been carrying my black Patagonia backpack instead of a purse, and putting my LV clutch or Chanel bag inside for when I need to dress up.


Tomboy/unisex
Boy's or girl's. Doesn't matter anymore. Button your shirt up to your clavicle, stat.



Something over-the-top unique 
Just show who you are. It doesn't matter if it's on-trend, so much as you love it.


Leather pants
Been on my list for a while now. Still relevant. And comfy.


Mohawks
For girls. Or dogs.


Combat boots
Doc Martens are good for the younger set. For us mid-lifers, I'm going with more of a paddock boot version by Frye.

Sven

Clogs
Take a cue from Europe and put these (back) in your wardrobe. I love my Sven clogs and they look especially great with black or grey skinny jeans. I will be wearing them non-stop with skirts and shorter pants or shorts when my legs are tan in summer.

Golden Goose

Tennies
I'm not a fan of the big clunky ones, but I do love a good pair of simple tennies with aforementioned leather pants, cropped black pants or cropped tight jeans.
