Life has been... strange, for lack of a better word, for a few weeks now. Everything seems to have been put on hold, and now we're having to adjust to a new reality—temporary, but no less difficult. Recently, Gabriela Machado, founder of Momoc, wrote these words in a letter to our community on our last newsletter that we now want to share with you: “ We have the freedom to look at this situation that we are experiencing with a positive attitude, or with a negative one. And believe me, it hasn't been easy for small businesses. Still, I go to bed every night thanking you for three good things that happened during the day. Whether it was that delicious meal, that walk with the dog watching the sunset, or that delicious tea with a piece of cinnamon. In other words, giving thanks for the small—for me, the big—pleasures. And I focus on that, on the good things in this situation .”
And what could be better than thinking about all the clothes and outfits you'll be able to wear once all this is over? Because yes, tracksuits are fine, but only for a short time. Otherwise, they get boring and lose all the fun. We personally are thrilled to take our loafers out and create looks with them for different occasions. Today we're sharing five spring looks that inspire us, and we hope they inspire you too:
Cute, but always prepared
If we've already been told: "April, a thousand showers." April is a capricious month when it comes to weather, and that makes things a little more complicated when it comes to dressing. Even so, it's a month of perfect temperatures: neither too cold nor too hot. Just remember to pack your umbrella in your bag, and you're good to go. An umbrella, a good raincoat, and a bag large enough to hold both items in case you no longer need them. We suggest pairing it all with loafers. Cheval Brun And so you can forget about having to go home all day, no matter what the weather is like.
Girls' night out
Yes, FaceTime calls are fine and dandy, but there's nothing better than a nice dinner with friends. At a restaurant. Out and about. If you're looking to dress up but don't want to go overboard, loafers are the way to go. Cougar Veggie They're your best friend. Plus, you can make things as complicated as you want, as long as you're comfortable, and that's all that matters. Add a brightly colored bag, and you've got your evening look complete.
Strolling through the city
We know you're doing your best to stay fit during this lockdown: creative home workouts, online Zumba classes, Yin yoga at night to relax and stretch after sitting (or lying down) all day at home... But let's not kid ourselves. Right now, what we miss most isn't in-person classes or gym machines. Right now, people are telling us we can take a walk around the city without restrictions or distance, and that makes us happy. But don't worry, that day will come, and when it does, you'll need a good pair of comfortable shoes that can withstand all those miles you're going to put in. Luckily, loafers Cheval Noir Vegan They're the solution to your problems. Comfortable, cute, and perfect for wandering around and getting lost in your own city. Pair them with a monochromatic look and a backpack that you can throw on your back to hug, touch, and kiss whoever you want without restrictions.
Ready for your meeting (in person)
Although it may seem impossible now, there will come a time when meetings stop being online and return to being in person, and on that day we will remember the days when we could discuss important matters with our boss in our pajamas. But even though it may be harder for us to say goodbye to this particular practice, it's also true that dressing up for an important meeting has its own merits. The clothes you wear often determine your attitude towards certain things, and there's nothing better than going into a meeting feeling like you can take on the world and much more. Without having to stray from the all-black look (which we know is really cool), try adding a special touch by swapping your regular pants for faux-leather ones or adding some glasses that make you feel like Miranda Priestly in the 1980s. Devil Wears Prada (but a cute version, of course). Pair it with loafers Crocodile Veggie Noir and get ready to sweep it all away.
An afternoon in the park
We can't think of a better way to enjoy a nice day in the city than with a picnic in the park. In fact, it's the kind of thing you'll wonder why you don't do it more often. Once all this is over, we encourage you to grab your plaid blanket and wicker basket and head to the park to enjoy the sun and fresh air. Bring a comfortable dress and, of course, some shoes that aren't just adorable, like our loafers. Crocodile Veggie Rouge , but you can also easily take it off to feel the grass under your feet.
