A Clear and Present Spring/Summer Trend

Clearly I’m sensing a hot accessory trend here: translucent is très chic. See-through bags, jewelry and shoes add a playful accent to any spring and summer look. (And just for fun, if you’d like to see a few of my favorites, check out the slideshow below!)

Pick up a clear bangle and add it to your workday look, or sport a pair of pumps with clear accents with an ankle pant or tailored trouser. Transparent bags are best for weekend or off-duty looks but add a fun edgy accent to your ensemble. (If you don’t want to put everything on display, find a printed zippered pouch to put any personal items in!)

Locally, find your own see-through love in these Jeffrey Campbell “Bash” heels ($139) from shoo on State Street. The chunky heel adds a bit more support and comfort while maintaining a fabulous edge.
