Glam Gaga

Had to revisit August 1, 2011 to honor the stunning all-houndstooth outfit Lady Gaga wore.
I'm so in love with this outfit! It's so difficult to pull off head-to-toe print, especially if that print is exactly the same throughout the outfit. Most people would have looked overly matchy, but Lady Gaga pulled this look off perfectly. I adore the chicness and sophistication of the outfit; she definitely nailed it!

Diane's Fashion Obsessions: Printed/Patterned Shoes

Patterned shoes are a must-have! They easily give an outfit more "interest".

I love Doc Martens. A print makes them less edgy and a lot more sweet.

Menswear is really popular now. Oxfords are a men's style shoe, but a print gives them a dose of femininity.

Heels/platforms are always sexy, but a print gives them some extra spark!

Prints make an ordinary sneaker look a lot less ordinary.

Printed flats look a bit dressier, so you can pair them with your favorite party dress. You'll be able to bring more excitment into your outfit while staying formal, and without killing your feet!
