How to Effortlessly Update Your Spring Style ( & A Shoe Giveaway!)

It’s officially spring which, here in the Midwest, is more of a mindset adjustment than a true weather change. Nonetheless, days are getting longer, green buds are popping up in the grass and palm tree-clad spring break destinations have us peeling off the winter layers. While it’s tempting to buy an entirely new spring wardrobe, making quality and thoughtful accessory updates like investing in a pair of comfortable heels or a fun handbag is an easy way to keep looks fresh without spending a fortune or making “fast fashion” impulse buys. If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I’ve worked with an incredible vegan design shoe company, Jambu & Co, so I was thrilled to pack a couple pairs from their 2018 Spring Collection to wear during our family vacation to Palm Springs, CA. One of those pairs are these platform heels, a timeless shoe and a perfect fit for strolling through the ‘60’s and ‘70s-era architecture and character of Palm Springs. I’m not sure about you, but nothing gives me a little confidence boost like a platform heel like this pair from Jambu & Co. called the “Gina.” What I especially love about Jambu heels is that the foot bed is made of super comfortable Memory Foam and the rubber heels help give traction so there’s never a “breaking in” period. Not even for a pregnant lady who is a little off balance these days! I also love a shoe that is versatile and doesn’t require precious closet space for one formal event of the year. This Gina platform will be cute with worn-in jeans during the day or perfectly paired with a summer jumpsuit or dress.
