Of course, choosing the perfect bag, shoes and sunglasses can be a challenge without the right inspiration. Thankfully, these fashionistas are on hand to provide an assortment of fresh and exciting ideas. FUTURISTIC SNEAKERS

From metallic and multi-coloured designs to supersized styles with sleek curves, this year’s sneaker selection is fit for the space age.
SCULPTURAL HEELS
Colour wasn’t the only exciting element adorning footwear last year. Sculptural heels were also spotted beneath the feet of many fashionistas. The trend, which appeared both artistic and seriously stylish, added a chic, unexpected detail to a range of ensembles. From sleek cylinders to dramatic hourglasses, sculptural heels can come in many fantastic shapes. So, be sure to have a bit of fun when choosing a pair of your own this 2019.
BASKET BAGS
Shrunken styles weren’t the only handbag trend to infiltrate Spring/Summer 2019 fashion month. Basket bags also took over the streets of Milan and New York and looked incredibly pretty while doing so. These wicker and straw style bags appeared in a variety of shapes and designs, all of which partnered perfectly with easygoing feminine ensembles. The result was a picnic-chic aesthetic that’s ideal for the springtime.

However, what they all had in common were straight edges, defined corners and an utterly cool appearance. Naturally, these glasses will be the chicest way to shield your eyes this summer.
SHRUNKEN BAGS
Appearance will win out over practicality this month as fashion stars chose to rock the world’s tiniest handbags.
